“I don't know. I guess I have to talk to her”
“Are you guys okay?” my mom asked.
“Uhhh, yeah. . .I just—” I trailed off.
“Wait, is that Gwen?” my mom asked shocked. I let go a heavy sigh as I saw her hiding behind that menu to avoid eye contact with me.
“Yes, she is. . .And I'm not standing here with arms crossed. I need to talk to her, and that's exactly what I'm going to do” I said and stood up.
Gwen's P.O.V
Oh crap.
He's coming. I can't believe it. I have to get out of here. But if I try to escape, he will catch me no matter what. I'm not ready to face him, neither talk to him or whatsoever. We kissed, then he appeared at my door, and my mother told me not to talk to him, even though I want to kiss him again. And I know you might be thinking: Why the hell do you want to kiss him again?
I just never felt such relief when our lips connected. I felt pleasure and passion, he made my stomach flutter when he takes my hair out of my face, or when he hugs me and places his chin on top of my head. He felt so warm the few times we touched.
“Gwen?” I heard his deep voice. Dammit.
I let go a heavy sigh and then placed the menu down, revealing both Dani and I. Finn exchanged looks between the two of us. I can't believe he's here, why? The last thing I want is to see him.
“Gwen, can we talk? Privately?” he asked turning to Dani who was glaring at him.
“No, she's my best friend, so if you want to say something it has to be in front of me, Harries” she said and crossed her arms across her chest.
Then Cameron appeared, grinning at my best friend. She let out an annoyed scoff, rolling her eyes at the sight of her past fling. “Cameron?”
“Sup, Dani. So glad you remember me” he winked.
“I wish I didn't” she said.
“Why? I wasn't like Finn; I did call you after we had sex” he said.
“What!?” Finn and I said at the same time while exchanging looks from Dani to Cameron.
“Why didn't you tell me?” I asked.
“I-I felt bad for you since this asshole over here didn't called you. I just met up with him once, I swear!”
“I'm getting tired with this asshole thing” Finn said.
“Don't worry, I have a list full of nicknames to call you once I get bored with calling you asshole”
“I want to hear them” Cameron butted in, which made Finn glare at him.
“Whatever. . .We don't have time for this. Suddenly, I lost my appetite” I said and stood up, so did Dani.
“Gwen, please. . .I'm begging you” Finn said while grabbing both of my arms. I tried to get away from his grip but he didn't let go.
“Is everything okay over here?” Elizabeth asked while putting her hands on her hips, exchanging looks from Finn to me.
“Yes, everything's okay, mom” Finn said and finally let me go.
“We were just leaving” Dani said while grabbing my hand leading us to the door, but Finn grabbed my arm and pulled me closer to him. I stared straight into his beautiful chocolate brown eyes.
“You're not leaving” he said.
“Finn, let the poor girl go. She've had enough already” his mom said. Finn shook his head stubbornly, he leaned in a little bit, and I found myself dropping my view to his lips, so did he. But I had to stop myself, just one little move and we would be kissing, and that couldn't happen.
“Finn, please” I whispered. He looked at my eyes again, and sighed. He slowly let me go and took a step back.
“C'mon Gwen” Dani said and walked outside, but I couldn't move. I stayed there staring at Finn.
“Sorry” I mouthed and walked out of the building. One tear rolling down my cheek. Honestly, I don't know why I'm crying for him? Is not like we were dating and we broke up. But something inside me felt so bad when I stepped back from him. Without his warm touch. I got inside the car and tilt my head sideways to see my best friend turning on the engine. I saw in front of me, Finn stepping out of the restaurant staring back at me. He put his hand in his jean pockets and didn't break his gaze. I looked down at my fingers not wanting to look back at him, somehow I felt horrible. . .
“Everything will be alright” Dani said while grabbing my hand. I nodded, but I wasn't quite sure. Ever since this baby thing, I don't know if anything will be alright anymore. I think things are going down the drain.
Chapter 24 - Beautiful Sights
I stared out the window as the trees went by, the blue sky beyond us, the birds flying away. And that's exactly what I wanted to be. . .A bird. You might be thinking I had gone insane already, with all this drama and this mess my life had suddenly turned into. But is the reality. . .Wouldn't you want to have the ability to fly, and fly far away to avoid any troubles? Because I would pay millions and millions of dollars to fly in an instant.
I constantly get the feeling of escaping, from everything. Responsibilities, drama, choices, just everything. I want to fly away and never look back, why would I? The only thing that's here, down on the ground, are constant unnecessary problems that I have no strength to deal with right now.
I'm tired, confused, sad, all at the same time.
When Dani dropped me off at my house I just wanted to lay down on my bed—and like when I was young—I wanted to feel protected with my sheets and covers, just close my eyes and go to my happy place.
When I got in I found my brother sitting on the couch, talking in the phone. He waved at me and then went back to his conversation. Surprisingly, I wasn't hungry, so I just walked to my room. I plopped down on my bed and checked my phone quickly so then I could sleep. If Dani texted me and I don't answer, she would surely get pissed. Let's say she's so overprotective. But I like it, she's my best friend, and that means she loves me.
I had no texts from Dani, but from Finn.
Finn:
You know that I won't give up, right?
Finn:
This ignoring you're doing just makes me fight harder.
Finn:
We kissed a couple nights ago and we haven't talked about it. I know you felt something.
Finn:
Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen, Gwen. I can keep going all day, you know? ;)
Finn:
Babe, please.
Finn:
I know you're reading this; you're just deciding not to answer it.
I rolled my eyes and turned my phone off before placing it on my nightstand. I covered my face with both of my hands. I just don't know why he doesn't understand that we can't talk, my mom told me not to. I understand he's the father, but still. . .
I heard a knocking at my door, my brother leaned at the doorframe. He smiled at me and crossed his arms across his chest.
“I’m going on a date with Dani” he informed me.
“Wow. You kiss once and now you're a couple. You don't need to thank me” I said cocking an eyebrow.
“We're not a couple, yet. Although I would love to, I don't want to rush things you know” he said.
“I told you that you guys were meant to be” I said honestly, smiling at the fact that they go out together. It's been a while since the last time they actually were nice to each other. With Alec's constant flirting and pranks on Dani, she just hated him, though I knew better. . .I always knew she secretly had a crush on him, and Alec giving her so much attention, always made her happy.
“And you were right. So thank you” he said and walked towards me. He placed a soft kiss on top of my head. “When I come back, you and I will watch a movie, is that good?”
“Yeah, sure. . .Hey, where's mom?” I asked furrowing my eyebrows in confusion. “And when is dad coming home?”
“She had something of her job, and dad is coming tomorrow” he said. I nodded and lied back down, placing my head on the headboard. He gave me one last wave before turning on his heels to leave.
Once he left, I closed my eyes, hugged my pillow tightly, and tried to think of something nice, something that doesn't involved that blue-eyed boy that can't stop making my life so complicated.

I opened my eyes lazily, not really wanting to wake up, but the sound of something hitting my window made me sat up straight. I walked towards it and opened it.
“Unbelievable” I muttered under my breath as I saw Finn standing there.
“Rapunzel, Rapunzel. . .Let your beautiful hair down” he said jokingly. I rolled my eyes.
“You're such a dork”
“Maybe I am, but I'm tired of you escaping from me. . .Why can't you tell me how you feel to my face, huh? If you do hate me like it seems, say it to my face, Gwen” he said. I quickly rushed downstairs and opened the main door. I took long strides towards him. He's right, I won't escape anymore, I will just tell him everything I feel right now. He was casually standing there with his arms crossed across his chest.
“You know how I feel? I feel angry, sad, tired. And you know what? I'm sick of—” he cut me off by grabbing my face with both of his hands and connecting our lips together. I wanted to pull away, I truly did, but I must admit that I felt such relief with him kissing me. I wrapped my arms around his neck to be closer to him, the warmth of his touch was comforting. Our lips moving in sync, like if they were made for each other. All my worries vanishing away in an instant. He placed one hand on my waist and then the other caressing my cheek delicately.
We pulled away, and he rested his forehead against mine. “I don't know about you. . .But I feel much better” he said. I nodded in agreement and he gave me a peck on the lips.
He hugged me tightly, resting his chin on top of my head. “You're such an idiot” I said into his shirt.
He chuckled. “I know that already. . .” he said and then locked gazes with me. He grabbed my chin. “But I know you felt something, you can't deny it now”
“I did. But that doesn't matter” I said and took a step back from him, but that just made him stand closer to me. I looked at the ground, and he caressed my cheek. “My mom doesn't want me hanging out with you” I admitted.
“I understand. But this just makes me want to fight harder to be with you. I don't know
