A Second Chance | Fadie

Chapter 28

Past & Present

Sadie's POV:

It's been about an hour since Millie and Noah rocked up. We've all been sat in Finn's room with the light sound of Netflix playing behind the laughs and conversations that's been filling the space.

"I need a drink, Sadie?" Millie asks, nodding towards the bedroom door.

"Y- yeah me too." I say, giving her a puzzled look but leaving the room with her anyways.

"Get us one too!" I hear Noah request as we shut the door behind us.

We wait in the hallway, staring at each other as she scans my neck. We didn't, you know. We just made out; it was nice to be honest.

"You're explain THAT in detail!" She says, flicking at my neck.

I blush as I bring my hand up to my neck. She turns back around, making her way into the kitchen. I follow her closely behind. I see Eric picking up his keys off the bench. I completely forget about the purple marks on my neck as I follow Millie into the kitchen.

"Hey girls, I'm about to head to the shops, you need anything?" He asks with a cheery smile.

"Um, I'm not sure to be honest," Millie shrugs.

Eric is like a second dad to Millie; they're families were super close before Mary passed. They still see each other occasionally but not as much.

"Maybe just some snack like foods, you know what the boys are like." She rolls her eyes and laughs as she grabs a glass from the cupboard.

"Of course, Sadie?" He asks with a smile.

"Sadie is defiantly going to need some con-"

"Millie!" I shout, slapping her shoulder.

Both Millie and Eric let out a loud laugh before Eric shakes his head and walks out the front door. I look at Millie who fills up her glass with water.

"You're a bitch, you know that?" I hiss.

She lets out a chuckle.

"Well, did you guys..." She widens her eyes, taking a sip of her water.

"No, no we didn't. Just making out." I spin on my heels, making my way out of the kitchen.

"Was it good?!" She exclaims, rushing after me.

I let a small smirk creep onto my face as I look at the girl standing beside me. She smirks back, letting out an excited squeal.

"You recon you two will date again?" She asks.

"I- I don't know, just because of what happened last tim-"

"He's changed though Sade's, majorly!" She persuades, walking down the hallway.

I nervously bit my lip, shrugging my shoulders and walking back into the bedroom.

"Hey where's ours?" Noah groans childishly.

"Suck it up, the kitchens like two metres away." Millie bickers, sitting down on the beanbag on Finn's floor.

I make my way over to Finn's bed, plonking down just where his feet finish.

"So, are we just going to sit in my room today or...?" Finn asks, sitting up and leaning on the backboard of his bed.

"Well if you have a better idea Mr. Wolfhard, I don't care what we do." Millie tilts her head slightly.

"Same." I nod.

"Me three." Noah adds.

Finn huffs in our replies. He hates being stuck in doors, he's beyond restless and can't sit still for long. Im surprised he's lasted this long in all fairness.
