*****

An hour into the party and I was longing for something that will not keep me sober. Finn was glued to my side, we normally just kept to ourselves in the corner. There are times when I wanted to go out and dance but I saw how bad his anxiety was that I stayed put. I didn't mind it though, with his arms around my waist protectively.

I couldn't help but to smirk at this, does he not know that he needs the protection? He knows how much I can handle myself.

"Do you wanna dance?" I ask suddenly, tugging on his free hand.

"You know I don't dance. How many times do I have to tell you that?" He groans. "Besides I already danced with you once."

I silently pout, turning my back on him. "You know one time is never enough for me. Now come on and quit being a baby."

Finn gave him, grabbing my hand. "I feel so dumb doing this." He groans. I simply ignored him and wrap my arms around his neck. He smiles down at me, pulling me closer. He was so stiff but i didn't say anything, I actually found it really cute. "How do people do this?" He grumbles.

"Just go with the flow!"

"I'm trying!" He whines. "Sorry I suck at dancing."

I smacked his head. "Don't talk Crap about yourself. I'm just as bad as you are."

"No...not really." I sighed and shook my head, letting him spin me around. "You're good at dancing."

"Mhm." I leaned in, not thinking twice about my actions. Our noses were touching and I giggled before separating from him. He didn't seem bothered by it, just spun me around again. "You see...I would dip you but i have a very strong feeling I'd drop you."

"Its ok. My mom dropped me many times when I was a baby. Explains why I'm so fucked up in the brain."

Finn laughs and I could feel his wall go down, finally letting loose. Not much, but it was a good start.

Our foreheads touched and Finn smiled grew, pulling me into a tight embrace. The gesture took me by surprise in my body just reacted immediately and hugging back.

The moment was quickly ruined.

"What's up people!" Alejandro yells, getting in between us. "Finn, you have to try these!" He hands him some ribs, I crossed my arms. "Are you already drunk?" I asked him.

"No! Why would you say that! You can't be the one to judge. You can i used to drink behinds dad's restaurant after it closed."

"Shut up." I laughed. "I want to have some fun without making myself throw up and wake up with a massive hangover."

"Girl ill be fine. Now Finn, try these."

Finn didn't look happy, giving him a glare which Alejandro wasn't paying attention too. "Nah I'm good. You can go now."

"Dude come on! Try these." He practically shoves the ribs in his face and when Finn didn't accept he proceeds to shove them further. He angrily ate a piece, his expression not changing a bit.

"Good huh?" Alejandro says, slurring at the end.

"Yep." He said sourly.

Alejandro finally leaves after Malcolm came to get him, taking him back outside. I let out a laugh, Finn shaking his head. "Where were we?"

"I do not know young man, care to tell me where we left off?"

"How about i show you?" He wiggle his eyebrows, pulling me back into an embrace. At that moment a semi-slow song came on. Not gonna lie, it was perfect timing.

I tried to bury my nose in his neck but my witch nose was making it hard. Not to be weird or anything, but I inhaled his scent as secretly as I could, smiling.

"Did you just sniff me?" He asks suddenly.

"Er-no." I lied.

"Quit lying." He smirks, pulling me away so he could look at me in the eyes. "To be honest I smelled you too."

"Haha nice."

My thumb went over his lips before he bit it, his lip not my thumb. Sadly. Finn bend down and this time he was the ine to bury his nose in my neck. I almost swooned as i felt his lips connect to my neck. Just a small, simple peck. That was all he did, but it drove me insane.
