MAKE IT COUNT.

twenty questions

she decided to ignore it and was about to continue to go in her room when she heard another thud and a cuss coming from the same room, coming from the same boy.

she groaned impatiently because of the clumsy boy, making her barge towards the room without knocking, grabbed the walkman and angrily put it on his desk.

she was about to leave when she felt a hand grab her wrist to stop her from doing so.

millie turned around and faced him, "what the hell do you want?"

finn bit his lip nervously. "i just- i'm sorry about earlier," he uttered, sincerity in his eyes.

did he just apologize?

"what? surprised?" finn chuckled. "i may be cold and aggressive most of the time, but i still have feelings, millie," that was the first time millie heard finn say her name. she wasn't a big fan of her name, but the way he said it was like music to her ears. it almost sounded as good as buddy holly, which is a huge compliment for millie.

millie was still filled with anger, though. "so what do you want me to do? bow down to you and apologize as well?" she grunted, raising her eyebrow.

"i'm not that heartless millie," he replied. millie was so surprised that he wasn't shouting every word that came out of his mouth this time. like he was back in this charming aura that weakened her goddamn heart.

she instantly felt bad, "sorry," she mumbled.

"okay, why don't we just go back from the start and act like we just met each other and shit," finn requested.

"if you insist," millie replied.

he cleared his throat, "hallow, my name is finn wolfha-d. bUHT, you can cawwll me anything you want," he said while extending his hand, imitating the girl's british accent.

millie looked at his extended hand then back at him as she raised her eyebrow, "are you trying to do my accent?"

"are you trying to do my accent?" he repeated, "oh god, finn, that's a horrible impersonation," millie glared at him playfully but gave in and started laughing.

"oh come owwwnnn, i knoW you lowwwvvv it," finn continued to imitate her while pretending to sip a cup of tea.

"finn, i swear to god!" she said in between laughs as she held her stomach this time because it hurt from laughing too much.

finn couldn't help but smile at the sight of the girl in front of her. this was the first time he had seen the girl this happy that it made him grin so widely this time knowing he was the reason behind it.

"okay, okay. i'll stop," he said while surrendering. millie wiped the tears from her eyes, he extended his hand again.

"pleasure to meet you finn, i'm millie bobby brown," millie took his hand and shook it. he had cold hands, while she had warm ones.

"bobby's your middle name?" finn asked, grinning. "yes, you tell anyone that that's my middle name, and i will salvage you wolfhard," she said, while looking directly at his eyes. "what's to be embarrassed about? it's pretty," he sincerely said.

there was silence in the room until millie broke it, "so um, since we're trying to get to know each other, a 20 questions wouldn't hurt, i guess?"
