MINE.
That's all Finn kept thinking as he kept tracing MINE over and over again on the inside of Rae's wrist as she slept.
Today had been a truly horrible day. To start out Finn found out that instead of Rae he had some unknown girl who fancied him sending him a love letter. A love letter that Rae thought was stupid. A love letter that was giving Rae the wrong idea. A love letter that wasn't from Rae, but that was just the beginning of his horrible day with Rae.
He changed from writing MINE to FINNS. Some might call him possessive or overly so but after Rae avoiding contact with him he thought he deserved a pass. No talk of music. Not much talk at all. And especially no hugs.
Every time he got close with his arms open wide, he'd get a hand to the chest with some lame ass excuse. It's not like he could complain about it about then. He had been a real knobhead when Rae and he first met. She had ever right not to want to talk or hug him, but he thought they were getting past it. Obviously he was wrong. Later during the "sexy party" they'd gotten into a tiff in her closet when they should have been spending it in Heaven.
And it sure as fuck would have been Heaven if Rae and he had been snogging instead of having a row. To have been able to hold her close, to feel her lips against his, to make her mine; Heaven.
MINE. Yeah that sounds nice. Because whether she knows it or not she belongs to him. Especially not to some guy name Danny who wore two hats. MINE. I had to suffer most of the times in Rae's room, during the party, listening Danny talk about the time Rae and he had been together. Couldn't he see she was embarrassed not by the attention but by the topic. Finn just wanted to curl him up like he had with Big G and tell him she was his now and to keep his fuckin' mouth shut, but Rae would probably get mad at him about it. Just another guy to add to his 'Stay the Fuck Away From Rae List'
To top it all off his Nan was in the hospital. And later Finn found she didn't make it. But Rae found him soon after, and she instantly went to make things right. After pulling from the hug they were in, she instantly told everyone it was time for the "sexy party" to end and the slumber party to beginning. Somehow he ended up in bed with Rae. He vaguely remembered Rae setting up Izzy, and then finally crawling into bed with him. They chatted for a while. Rae being Rae giving a damn if I was okay or not and about my Nan. Then I took a nap for a while. That's how I ended up here to staking my claim by invisibly tattooing my name into her skin.
"Mhmm," Rae mumbled as she turned in her sleep. She laid her head against his shoulder; while snuggling deeper into her duvet. Finn froze. He had no idea what to do. Had he been caught?
"Finn? Ya wake?" Rae grumbled adorably.
"Yeah," Finn said.
"Thinkin' bout your Nan?" Rae asked. She cared. She cared about me. The only one of us that's sound.
"Naw, just couldn't sleep," Finn replied, itching to go back to scribbling that she was his.
"Stay still," Rae shuffled around and strung her arm through his, while still resting her head on his shoulder. "If you ever just wanna talk about her or just want someone there, just give me a ring, yeah," Rae asked. She looked up at Finn with drowsy type seriousness. He knew she wouldn't let it go until he promised.
"I will. Promise," Finn swore.
Rae gave a little nod of the head and placed her head back on his shoulder. "Good because I would hate to have to kick your arse if you didn't," Rae smirked.
"Oi! You cheeky chit," Finn teased her from earlier. Rae and Finn laughed together. When they settled down, Finn sat up slightly and adjusted the duvet around Rae. "Go to sleep Rae. I'm fine. Sleep," he encouraged.
"Sure?" Rae asked already half sleep.
"Yeah," Finn smiled fondly at her, "See you in the morning." Finn waited until he was sure she was asleep and began tracing MINE again until he fell asleep.
Waking up a second time was hard for Finn. He immediately noticed that he was alone in Rae's bed. This made him sad that he couldn't wake up to her beautiful face.
After Finn carefully got out of Rae's room without disturbing Izzy, he tugged downstairs. Finn saw a beautiful sight when he entered the kitchen. Rae was carefully making a full English breakfast. He couldn't tell if he was drooling over the food or Rae, most likely the latter. He reached out to grab a biscuit and was smacked away by Rae.
"No food until you guys start cleaning," Rae smirked at him.
Finn huffed in fake annoyance. "Yes, love," he tested out. He saw Rae turn back to the stove with a smile on her face.
"Go wake the children, dear," Rae replied cheekily. Finn left the kitchen with a big smile. Just for that quick instant he thought of what it would be like to have kids with Rae, but he quickly shook that notion away. They weren't even together, yet. He rolled a cigarette and dug the mixtape he made for Rae for the Oasis trip out of the bottom of his duffel and put it in. He turned the volume up loud, and turned to wake up Chop with the cig. Eventually as the music reached the top level to wake Izzy and Chloe, we all started to clean the mess of the party.
As he waited for his turn to say goodbye to Rae, he thought if he should go for a hug he's been waiting for, or maybe take a risk.
When it was his turn, Finn told Rae he'd give her a ring and he would. He didn't think he could do without her long now that they were so close. But after that he took his shot. She opened her arms for the hug he wanted, but Finn couldn't be satisfied with just hugs any longer. He needed long touches, caresses, maybe if he was lucky -REALLY LUCKY- maybe even some snogging, but he could take what he could steal.
He quickly leaned in and pecked her cheek and walked out of her flat before she could say anything.
Even though he knew the happiness he was practically vibrating with was going to short-lived until he got home, he couldn't stop from being pleased with himself. He kissed Rae. Not in the way he wanted, but he had time.
Breezing down the streets is when he decided that he was going to get Rae.
She was going to be his.
His Rae.
MINE.
