As simple as it can be

8. Can I come closer?

General POV:

It has been a week since the date between Millie and Finn. Finn was at his job, it was currently 10 am, and Millie was on her way to see him and to get coffee, two of her favorite things in the world.

When she walked in, Finn turned his head to see her. He was in total awe, like always. She was wearing a red skirt with a black and white top. Her hair was up in a low ponytail, and she was wearing her glasses today. School already started, so she needed them.

So far, she was enjoying very much her courses, and everyone was very nice to her.

This week, the two haven't really talked because Millie was busy with getting the schedule and finding the classes. The campus was gigantic, so it took her a while. She had Sadie though, who was already familiar with the place and helped her.

Finn started school, too, obviously. He was now working because his courses didn't start until 2 pm.

(please don't come @ me, I don't really know how it works so I just come up with stuff, you can feel free to correct me tho)

"I haven't seen you in some time! How have you been? How's school? Are you figuring out the placement of the class rooms?" Finn asked Millie, smiling happily.

"Yes, I have Sadie anyways, and she knows the way to the classes, so I'm going just fine! And I love all my courses so far! How are you?" Millie said.

"I'm good! I'm working, studying, same stuff. Nothing new. So, you want the same as the last time? Caramel frapp with whipped cream?" he asked her.

She smiled and blushed a little bit: "You remembered! Yes, I want that! Thank you! So, what are you doing tonight? I wanted to surprise you this time!"

"Oh, I don't have anything planned!" he said excitedly.

"So, you trust me to take you somewhere special I found yesterday and loved?" Millie asked him.

"Yes, I do! But with one condition! Please don't kidnap and kill me or something!" he said jokingly.

"I promise I won't kidnap and kill you." Millie answered, laughing loudly.

"Okay, then it's settled! Where should we meet?" he asked her, handing her the finished drink.

"I'll pick you up from your dorm room at 7. Be ready! I'll text you before I leave my room." She said, handing the money, taking her drink and making her way to the door.

"See you later Wolfhard!" Millie said, leaving the coffee shop.

He smiled at himself and chuckled a little bit, before getting back to work.

After her courses, Millie obviously went to the special place to prepare everything. She did, and then she got back to the dorm to get ready. Meanwhile, Finn was just freaking out like always, not knowing what to wear, being genuinely nervous and hearing Caleb teasing him with the "date".

After finishing the teasing, he decided to try to calm his best friend and help him choose what to wear. He looked in Finn's closet and took some black jeans, a t-shirt and a leather jacket.

On Millie's side, Sadie and Mary worked together on the outfit for their friend. They decided on a short light blue dress. She did the rest of the process of "getting ready for the date".

7 came quickly and Millie was standing outside Finn's room. She took a deep breath and knocked. She was surprised by Gaten's answer.

"Hi! I'm here for Finn, well I guess you already know that!" she said to the smiling boy.
