Chapter 6 - Chapter 06

Finn Pov

I pulled my suit as I went into the front door. No one was in the living room as it was very late so I went upstairs to my room. I smiled as I recalled my night with Elena. It was perfect and I was glad I went with her.

Elena has always been a shy girl, a different personality from the bubbly Isabella and I wondered how she could tolerate Isabella so much.

The room was dark but it never bothered me. I was used to it and I moved around effortlessly. I went into the shower and took a bath. I had baseball practice the next day and It was the only reason why I couldn't be with Elena when she invited me to their send-forth party.

l climbed into bed and brought my phone out. I had Elena's number but I was too scared to call. Isabella has given it to me once when she went for a sleepover and left her phone back home, she wanted me to call when I wanted to go pick her but she ended up back home with Elena.

"Boo," A voice right next to me on the bed said.

I jerked away and fell hard. I quickly went to the door and picked up my baseball bat before putting on the light. Sitting on the bed in her underwear was Wendy laughing at me.

"What the hell was that?" I said angrily. "You gave me a fright". I kept the bat and went to pick up the phone I dropped but Wendy beat me to it.

"Well that was the whole point of Boo" She laughed. "You see your face?"

"What are you doing here?" I asked, my heart still running at full speed.

"I waited for you. Heard you took your sister's friend to the prom" She said as she inspect the phone. "Are you guys a thing now? Was she the reason you chase me out yesterday?"

"God Wendy, I don't have time for this. You need to leave. Give the phone back"

"What is wrong with you? You've changed and not until yesterday" She rolled her eyes as she flipped open the phone. "You always love it when you find me in your bed".

I liked Wendy but there was no attachment to our relationship. I made sure she understood that but she was right, I never had any issues with her creeping into my bed.

"Oh you even have her picture" She giggled as she kept flipping. "God, you have a lot of her here".

"Wendy, seriously, give it back!" I said and snatched the phone from her. I felt heat rushing to my face. I knew I had Elena's picture, I couldn't even remember how I got that much but I did. I knew I was exhibiting the personality of a stalker.

"I am sorry..." I signed and sat close to her. "I...I"

"Hey, You can tell me anything". She gently placed her hand on my lap. I tensed, feeling her hand there. In the past, I never had problems with her but I knew everything about Wendy changed that night after I had a moment with Elena.

"Wendy, I am in love with Elena" I stated simply.

"Oh...I... That's cool " She looked shaken but quickly smiled. "So what's the problem?"

"Us" I looked into her eyes. She seemed confused.

"I...I don't understand" She stuttered. "What does us have to do with it?"

"If I am to concentrate on Elena, we need to stop this. I can't have you creeping into my bed or making love anymore. I need to be plain and I don't wanna cheat on her"

"Oh," Wendy looked disappointed. "I...I understand" She giggled. "I didn't think about that"

"I am sorry"

"No, don't be" She came down from the bed and started putting on her clothes.

"Where are you going?" I looked up at her.

"Home"

"No, don't...It is very late. Stay the night"

"If I do, I will seduce you, Finn," She said playfully as she put on her boot "I have to leave"

"Please, stay the night." My voice pleaded as I stood and pulled her towards me. I sniffed in the scent of her shampoo. I used to love it.

"Fine" She nodded after she thought for a while.

I hugged her to me and she gently pulled back and sat on my bed, patting the spot close to her. I went and sat there.

"So, Wendy" I laid down and pulled her to me. "Tell me how to woo a lady"

She giggled and turned to face me as she made trails on my chest with her hands "One thing I know is that a girl should not be made to feel the vibes of a stalker" She made faces and I laughed.

"I am not a stalker"

"Duh," She smirked. "I wouldn't think so, especially when I see a lot of my pictures on your phone"

"Yeah, you got me on that," I said as I put my hands behind my head. "So what do I do?"

"Well, for a start, be plain" She shrugged. "No lies, no secrets. Just be you. Girls love transparency. That's all".

"Everything?" I asked. I didn't know why I was feeling nervous when it comes to Elena. I don't wanna hurt her and I was determined to make the relationship work. I had nothing to keep from her.

"Well not really," She said and laid on her back too. "You can't tell her about us. Not a single thing or she will flip her lid and you will never see her again". I inhaled as I remembered Isabella when she mentioned Wendy after the prom. I needed to warn her.

"Is that all?" I asked again. "I tried to kiss her you know but on both occasions, we were interrupted.

"Don't try it again. I mean not anytime soon. You need to make her relax around you. You don't want her thinking kissing her is all that you want, don't you?"

"Are you sure?" I raised an eyebrow as I supported my head with my hand and faced her.

"Trust me" She purred. "You wanna woo her? That's how"

"Well, that's helpful" I smiled and laid on my back once more. "Thank you"

"Always. Goodnight Finn" She kissed my cheek and turned her back to me. She was still dressed with her boot on. I knew I would wake up and won't find her next to me. I knew I would miss her.

I smiled as I thought about my future with Elena. It was going to be beautiful.

"Night Wendy" I signed and closed my eyes.
