what you did to me, Gwen. But I just feel so close to you. When we met, I was just looking for fun, to have sex and have a wild night. And then I got to know you, and I realized I just want to be with you. To protect you, to take care of you, to touch you, and hug you. I don't want to let you go”

 

I finally looked at him and peck his lips, closing my eyes briefly. “Let's go somewhere” he whispered.

 

“What? We can't. . .” I said and put a strand of hair behind my ear.

 

“We can. . .And we will” he smirked. I looked back at my house.

 

“Don't worry, everything will be alright” he said and kissed me once more. When he pulled away he smiled.

“I want to show you something, c'mon. . .” he said and held out his hand for me to take it. I hesitantly stared at it, and bit my lower lip.

 

“Last time you told me you wanted to show me something, I ended up pregnant” I reminded him.

 

“But this won't be like last time, I swear" he said. I stared at his hands once more.

 

"C'mon, Gwen. . .Stop overthinking things” he said. I slowly grabbed his hand and he gave it a little squeeze. He lead me to his car and I buckled in. I tilt my head sideways to see him turning on the engine.

 

He smiled at me. “There is this beautiful place I want to show you. Do you trust me?” he asked.

 

I nodded.

 

“Let's go then. . .” he said.

I don't know how much time it was since we left my house. I just see that we were passing house after house, tree after tree. "Where are we going?" I asked finally, the curiosity eating me alive.

 

“Be patient, we're almost there” he said. I stared out the window. The sun setting down, leaving trades of pink and blue in the sky. It was beautiful, I won't deny that. Minutes passed by and the car came to a stop.

 

“We're here” he announced and killed the engine. He got out of the car and then walked to my door. He opened it and then grabbed my hand. We walked some more and we were somehow facing the whole city. The view was stunning. The lights, the silence, everything. The sun has gone down already, so it’s all dark, the moon in one corner, the sky full of shining stars. I was gawking by the view in front of me, I've never seen such thing in my entire life.

 

“I know, beautiful, right?” he asked while standing behind me. I nodded and smiled as I stared at all the city lights.

 

He put his arm around my waist, hugging me from behind, he placed his chin on my shoulder.

 

“It takes my breath away” I said honestly.

 

“Now you know what I feel whenever I look at you” he said. I turned around to face him.

 

“Thanks for bringing me here” I said. He grabbed both of my hands and kissed them, then pecked my lips.

 

“Anything for you” he said, and then kissed my stomach. “And you too, baby”

 

I giggled and then hugged him. We were like that for I don't know how much. It felt so good I didn't want to pull away. I don't understand how it was from avoiding him to actually enjoy being with him, how does he do that?

 

He kissed the top of my head and then backed away. He went to his car and then took out a mantel. He placed it in the ground and then sat down. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. “Why do you have that with you?” I asked.

 

“Just in case you agree to come with me today” he grinned.

 

“And you knew I would say yes?” I asked.

 

“I had hopes” he patted the spot next to him. I smiled and then did as told. He put his arm around my shoulder and then kissed my forehead.

 

“Thanks for being here with me” he said and then leaned in, he kissed me so delicately it was so addictive. His lips were so moist and soft. I placed my hand on his cheek and he placed his on my leg. He gently started laying me on my back on the ground. When he broke the kiss, he stared at me and smiled. He wrapped his arms around me and we just stayed there, under the stars. 

Chapter 25 - Little White Lie

I opened my eyes and felt how strong arms were wrapped around me. I smiled and closed them again. The birds were singing and the sun was shining in my face. That made me open my eyes abruptly. I sat up straight and scanned my surroundings, I tilt my head sideways and saw Finn sound asleep.

 

It was daylight. We stayed asleep together, the whole night. I didn't warn anybody. . .I'm screwed. Oh no.

 

I desperately shook Finn awake, who opened his eyes in a second. He sat up straight too and looked at me and then at the sky. He rubbed his face with both of his hands.

 

“Holy shit” he muttered.

 

“Finn! We stayed asleep. They're going to kill me when I get back!” I said exasperated and then stood up from the ground, so did him.

 

“Hey, hey. . .Calm down, everything will be just fine” he said and then hold both of my shoulders, giving them a little squeeze. I shook my head and crossed my arms across my chest.

 

“I can't calm down. Don't you get it? I'm. Screwed” I said and put a strand of hair behind my ear.

 

“I will take you home, okay?” he said and grabbed my face with both of his hands. He placed a kiss on my cheek. He picked up the mantel and then we went to his car. The ride was completely silent, and I couldn't be more thankful. I feel like we would say one word and my head could explode. I'm shaking desperately, and I feel anxious to return. It felt like forever when we parked in front of my house.

 

I turned to Finn who just killed the engine, he was unbuckling his seatbelt, but I stopped him. “Please. . .Don't get out. The last thing I need is for them to figure out I was all night with you”

 

He sighed. “But it was my fault, I don't want them to be angry at you. I rather take the blow for you”

 

“It's okay, really. . ." I said and grabbed his hand, placing a kiss on top of it. "I'll think of something”

 

“I'm sorry” he said with an apologetic look.

 

“It's alright. . .I'm sorry for freaking out like that. I actually had a nice time” I said. He kissed my lips shortly. I unbuckled my seatbelt and then went out of the car. I let go a heavy sigh while staring at the front door, trying to prepare myself to go in. I turned around and saw Finn, waving at me. I smiled and waved back. I turned towards the door and opened it just to see my family all gathered in the kitchen. My mom was pacing back and forth, my dad sitting down fidgeting with his fingers nervously with a worried expression, and my brother in the verge of tears. He was the first one to see me.

 

“Gwen! There you are!” he said and rushed towards me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and hugged me tightly, burying his face in my hair. He was shaking with fear and relief washed over his face. “Don't ever do that again” he said into my hair. When we pulled away, my parents were the ones to hug me.

 

“Are you okay!?” my mom asked while checking me to see if I had any wounds. "Where were you!?"

 

“Mom, I'm fine, really” I said and then turned to my dad. “Hey daddy. How was your trip?” I asked innocently.

 

“Everything was fine until your mother called me last night saying that my only daughter wasn't here and was nowhere to be found” he said crossing his arms across his chest. I nervously bit the inside of my cheek.

 

“We were about to call the cops, Gwen” said my mom. “Where. Were. You?” she repeated.

 

I stared at the ground and then back at them. “I was–I was with D-Dani. I went over to her house, we were watching movies and stayed asleep” I lied. I looked at Alec who was giving me a suspicious look.

 

My parents sighed in relief. “You had to warn us that. Imagine my worry when your brother, who was crying his eyes out, called to see you weren't anywhere in the house the whole night. We didn't sleep at all because we were worried sick”

 

“I know. . .And I'm sorry” I said. They both hugged me again and I told them to go to bed to regain strength. Alec stayed, his arms crossed, and kept staring at me.

 

“Well, I'm very tired. So—” I trailed off while trying to walk away, but he grabbed my arm.

 

“You fooled mom and dad. . .But you don't fool me, Gwen” he said.

 

“What are you talking about?” I asked, trying to sound as innocent as possible, though I had this strange feeling at the pit of my stomach.

 

“I'm talking about that you just lied to them. You weren't with Dani, I was with her. And you never came along. When I got here, you were gone. . .So tell me the truth, Gwen. You were with him, weren't you?”

 

“When you came here, I was already on my way to her house” I said and put a strand of hair behind my ear. 

“With what car, huh? Or did you walk?”

 

“I took a cab” I said.

 

“I trust you, Gwen, I don't want you to get hurt. And by the way, you only put your hair behind your ear when you're nervous. Why are you nervous if you're supposedly telling me the truth? I know you, my whole life I have known you” he said and walked to his room upstairs. I was left there, completely speechless. . .

 

I hate lying to them, but I know they would be so pissed if I tell them I was with the boy who got me pregnant. I don't need that right now, neither them. . .

Chapter 26 - Career Risking

Finn's P.O.V

 

“Dude, are you serious!?” asked Cameron as I was telling him where I was last night. I sighed and then sat down at the edge of the bed. “That is so cool. . .Did
