Forever yours

Date night

Rachel's POV

I woke up the next morning with a headache. Deciding to stay home from school, I called my dads and told them about Emily, before hanging up the phone they promised to call the school and excuse me for the day. After hanging up the phone my stomach growled.

I was just about to walk down the stairs when I heard something drop in the kitchen. Running back to my room a grabbed the first thing I could. My hair brush. Walking back to the stairs I could hear someone mumbling. I Slowly decended the stairs as quietly as I could and tried not to alert the intruder. Turning the corner, his back was facing me. Perfert. Taking a deep breath I ran and jumped on his back, hitting his head with my hairbrush.

"What the hell Rachel" Finn yelled holding his head " did you just beat me with your hair brush?" I stood there shocked, how the hell did he get in here?

"What are you doing here and how did you get in Finn. You scared the shit out of me"

"I fell asleep here and figured I would make you breakfast. Did you really think a hair brush would hurt someone?" Finn asked laughing at me. It was silly. I'm just lucky it was Finn and not some creep.

"It was the only weapon I could find" I told him laughing.

"Here, I made eggs, bacon and toast for you eat up. Would you like a ride to school?" He asked as he rubbed his head.

"I have a headache. I'm not going. What do you have planned today" I hoped he would stay since we cancelled our date tonight so that we could help Em pack.

" I was going to go home and play video games but since you're staying home, we could hang out together until going over to Emily's. If that's cool with you"

I was just about to answer him when my phone vibrated. Looking at the screen it was Emily.

• won't be at school today, I have a lot of packing to do and I want to hurry up and finish before coming over. *Emily.

Before I sent my text I looked at Finn. " Emily is staying home from school to finish packing, do you think we could go help her and then we all could hang out after?"

"Yeah, sure let her know we will be there in 30 minutes. That should give you enough to get ready" he said picking up our plates. Kissing his cheek I ran to my room and got dressed. After I was dressed I sent Em a quick text saying we will be there soon.

Arriving at Emily's I started to tear up. This will be one of the last times I will ever walk into this house. Soon Emily and her parents will be gone and I won't have my best friend anymore. While I stood there staring at the house I felt Finn wrap his arms around me. Letting out a sigh I leaned back into him. "We have had so many memories here, sleep overs, pool parties, birthdays and even our petty fights. Soon that's all this house will be. Just a memory" I said and walked up to the door. Before I could knock, the door flew open and I was knocked back. Good thing Finn was standing behind me. "I-i-im going to miss you Rachel, I don't want to leave" Em said sobbing, "I'm going to miss you too.sis" I couldn't hold the tears in any longer. Em and I stood in the door way for awhile until Finn ushered us inside. Walking inside all of the memories rushed at me. I remember when Em and were running around the house and we broke her grandmothers vase. When her dad found out he made us clue it together piece by piece. To this day her mom kept it. Walking over I picked it up. "You can keep that Rach" Em said crying " it will give you something to remember" hugging the vase against me I whisphered "thank you" and wiped my eyes. "Here, I'll wrap it up and put it in the truck" Finn said holding his hands out. Handing it to him I watched him wrap it carefully and take it to the truck. "If you see anything else you want, feel free to take it" Em said as we walked into the living room.
