Millie's POV

"Oh my god Gaten just put something on," Sadie said, as we were all arguing about what to watch. We're staying at Finns tonight for our sleepover. Our parents allow us to have sleepovers even with guys. It's not like Caleb Finn Noah or Gaten will do anything stupid.

I laugh, and look over to Finn. He was smiling at them.

Finn is probably the one I'm closest too. We've known each other for years, even before we got the group together. He helped me through things, like my anxiety and my eating disorder.

It's pretty much faded away, but it's still there some days. Finn looked at me and saw me staring, and made a goofy face. I laughed and rolled my eyes and looked over to the group, who was still deciding on what movie to watch.

"Okay while Gaten is picking a movie for us we should make brownies or something." Sadie said, and the boys agreed.

Sadie basically made them herself with the help of Finn, cause the others are no help whatsoever. I sat there scrolling through Instagram, and the brownies were pretty much done. Sadie cut them into pieces, and she gave me one. I stared at it, and how much I didn't want to eat it.

Or anything, as a matter of fact.

"Does anyone want mine?" I asked, and Gaten sprinted over and took it, and thanked me. I caught Finns stare at me, which I really didn't want to. He's gonna be suspicious.

After a few minutes when they were just eating and talking about which genre of a movie to watch, Finn spoke up.

"Millie, come help me with something upstairs really quick." He said, and walked upstairs. I rolled my eyes, and went upstairs into his room, and shut the door so the others can't hear us. He sat on his bed, and looked at me.

"What?" I asked, crossing my arms. He scanned me, and found my eyes.

"Why didn't you eat?" He asked, and I shrugged.

"I didn't want it." I said, and he looked at me.

"You've told me that the past three days. You have to eat, Mills." He said, and I sat down on the bed next to him.

"I just don't want to eat, Finn. I know I should, but I don't want to. The thought of it makes me sick." I said, and he nodded.

"We'll start out with something small, then gradually start to eat more. It doesn't have to be right away." He said, and I nodded. I looked up to his curls, which were a mess.

"Why are you staring at my hair?" He asked, and I smiled and looked at him.

"It's an actual mess," I said, laughing. He tried to fix it, but ended up making it worse. I laughed, and he rolled his eyes and smiled.

"How long do you think it'll take before they actually come to check on us?" I asked, and he shrugged.

"A while." He said, and laid down. I got up and looked at him, grabbing his hand and pulling at it.

"We gotta goooo." I said, and he groaned, and pulled my arm towards him, basically pulling me on top of him. We met eyes, and he looked further down on my face.

Okay, I have a secret. I've liked Finn for about two years.

How could you not? Look at his hair, his face, his personality? He's such a sweetie. I've just never said anything or done anything about it because I don't want to ruin our awesome friendship. I mean, sometimes I feel like he flirts with me, but my mind could just be making that up.

He was still looking down at my lips, and I decided to make a move. I slowly leaned down and placed my lips on his, and he kissed back for a second, but then pulled back, and sat up, so we faced each other.

"Millie, I don't know about this." He said, and I nodded.

"What are you worried about?" I asked, and he looked at me.

"What if we ruin our friendship in the long run? Millie, my life plans are with you in them, friend or..girlfriend or whatever you are," He said, talking super fast when he said girlfriend. My stomach got butterflies. Me? Finns girlfriend?

You can only imagine.

"We've been friends for so long finn, I don't think anything can really break us apart." I said, and he nodded.

"Okay if that's the case then can I tell you something?" He asked, and I nodded.

"I've liked you for a while, I just didn't know how you would react to it, you know? I just got nervous about my feelings and I didn't want you to be mad and didn't want our friendship to end and then it'd be awkward-"

"Finn, stop rambling, I can't keep up when you're talking that fast." I said, smiling, and he smiled.

"Sorry. Millie, I like you. A lot, actually." He said, and I smiled.

"Since when do you have feelings for anyone?" I asked, and he didn't make eye contact with me.

"I didn't have feelings for anyone else because I've always had feelings for you." He said, and I swear my heart just melted.

"I like you too Finn." I said, and his smile got big.

"Well, if that's the case," He said, taking my hands and leaning in to kiss me. Our lips were about to touch when we heard the door opening. I pushed him over and he fell on the floor as the door opened.

"What's happening up here? Y'all sucking face or something?" Gaten asked, and I rolled my eyes. The group always teases us because we're so close. Finn got up.

"Actually yes, so leave." He said, closing the door on Gaten. I laughed, and he jumped back on the bed, and placed his lips on mine. They were really soft, and warm. Did I mention this is my first kiss? 

"Guys, Millie and Finn are making out up there!" We heard Gaten yell as he ran down the stairs. We both laughed, and placed our lips onto each other's again.

-

"Fuck yeah," Caleb said, when we were all sitting back downstairs. The news spread apparently. Thanks Gaten.

"Guys shut up, it's not a big deal." Finn said, and they threw pillows at him.

"We've been rooting for this since like day 1," Sadie said, and I looked over at her as she winked at me.

"Okay well since everything's coming out today can I say something?" Noah asked, standing up.

"Go ahead," Caleb said.

"I'm gay!" He said, and there was silence for a couple seconds.

Then pillows hit Noah everywhere, as we all screamed "yeah!". We all laughed, and finally calmed down and watched the movie.

-

I woke up in the middle of the night, and saw another movie was still playing. I looked on the ground and a couple of us were sleeping on it. Gaten and Caleb. Sadie took the long couch, and Noah slept on the other side of that. Their feet were by each other's face. Finn was sleeping on the big couch.

I was cold on the ground, so I decided to get up and quietly and carefully lay down next to Finn. Despite my efforts to be quiet, he woke up and started stretching. He looked over to me, and he lightly smiled.

"Can't sleep?" He asked, and I shrugged.

"Come here." He said, lifting his arm up so I can lay my head on his chest. I laid down and put my arm around his body, and I felt his hand on my back, and the other one wrapping around me, making me feel safe. He's warm, too.

"Goodnight, Finn." I said, and basically fell back asleep after I heard him talk.

"Goodnight, Mills. Sweet dreams, and wake me if you need me," He said, hugging me a little tighter.
