A/N: oh lordy—it's been ages since I've been on this site! Well, if any of you haven't watched the British show "My Mad fat Diary" stop everything you're doing. STOP. OPEN YOUTUBE IN A NEW TAB. AND. WATCH. IT. There are only 6 episodes so far, and we're all desperately waiting for the second season to come out. So yeah. This is a fi series dedicated to Rae X Finn. It'll consist of individual drabbles, but I'm lumping them together for the sake of convenience.

Warning: there's swearing. Cuz ya know…keeping it in character, yo!

Hope you all enjoy!

Chapter One: Hold My Hand

Rae's POV

My eyes felt so heavy as they opened. I rolled over to look at the clock, taking much of my duvet with me. 9:53 am. I sighed heavily; might as well get up. Donning my ever-sexy rainbow bathrobe I made my way to the kitchen and put some water on the stove for tea.

Mug in hand, I went and sat in front of the TV, mindlessly flicking through stations. What had I done yesterday? Something had definitely happened…

Oh, that's right! Mum and Karim got married.

Wait.

Something else had definitely happened…

…

"OH MY GOD!" I shouted. "How could I have forgotten?!" The way Finn had looked at me, the way he hugged me, the way he told me those three words. Those fucking three words that now meant our lives would be totally different. At least, I hoped. Yeah, I was nervous as all hell. How could he like me? How could Finn, sex on legs, LOVE me?

And besides, he hadn't even kissed me. That was a bad thing, right? Maybe he hadn't really meant it after all. But the look in his eyes.

There was only one way for me to find out for sure.

Tossing aside the color-vomit bathrobe, I dressed for success. And by success I mean my black jeans, my Raemundo Oasis shirt, my plaid hoodie, and my trusty chucks. Deep breaths Rae, deep breaths.

The only question now was: where to find him? Should I go to the pub? To the diner? His house? Dear lord, have mercy on my anxious-as-all-hell soul. I felt so overwhelmed. I couldn't face him. Not right now. What if the gang knew? Would they laugh at me? I really needed to talk to Tix. But comas kinda get in the way of having conversations with her. Nonetheless, when I finally realized where my feet had taken me, I looked up to find myself at the park near the hospital. At this point I really, REALLY just wanted to give up. Who was I kidding? I sat down on the slightly damp grass and leaned against one of the trees. I ran my fingers through my hair in frustration.

"Rae?". Oh God. That voice. I know that voice. No. No. No. I looked up. Yep. I was dead. I couldn't do this. It was Finn. Of course. Of fucking course.

"Hey, Rae." He sat down next to me. "How are ya?"

"Alright. And yourself?"

"I'm alright." Pause. "I, uh, I actually just rang at your door, but obviously you weren't there." He glanced over to me with that shy, lost puppy look that only he could perfect.

"Oh."

"So, uh…I-I was wondering if we could talk?"

"We are talking, genius." He smiled his beautiful lopsided smile.

"There's my Rae," he muttered. My Rae? Did he just say MY Rae? Oh lord. "But yeah, do you wanna go for a walk and we can talk about last night?" Yes. No. Maybe. Depends? He stood up, brushed off his hands on his jeans, and extended one. I just stared at him. He smiled a bit and nodded.

"Well c'mon then," he cooed. I couldn't move. I had no idea what to do. Let's review, shall we? 1) I was definitely heavier than he. 2) I wasn't reeeaaaally too keen on talking to him about last night anymore. 3) I was already embarrassed enough. But then somehow his hand was firmly wrapped around mine and my butt lifted off the grass with ease. I was definitely looking at him with wide, nervous, deer eyes and I was definitely the color of a tomato.

He locked my gaze and kissed my hand. Not letting go, he started to walk. Who was I kidding? We all know that I would follow this bastard to the ends of the Earth.

…

A/N: ok. Not the strongest first chapter, I know. But fic writing has been really hard for me recently, so please don't be too vicious. And I'm still trying to get familiar with the characters and their behaviors cuz I go fucking nuts when people write OOC.

Ok loves, that's all for now.
