Disclaimer: I do not own anything, I am not Ridley Pearson. I just wish we could see Finn and Amanda being fluffy best-friends-in-love more.
Finn watched the movie in front of him, the only source of light in the room, not really thinking much about the movie, but of the person sitting right next to him in the big couch. He kept glancing at Amanda to see her reactions, and he knew she was pretending not to notice as she laughed and gasped.
Around half-way through the movie, he started to feel awkward. Was he supposed to make some kind of move? Finn tried to recall what guys in movies did when they were in his situation, and eventually gathered enough courage to fake a yawn and put his arm around Amanda's shoulders.
As soon as his arm was resting on her, Amanda began to giggle.
Finn blushed. "Is that a good giggle or a bad giggle?"
"That's-the-cheesiest-move-in-the-book giggle." Amanda said, trying not to look too pleased about said cheesy move.
Before Finn could even defend himself, not that he knew what how he was supposed to do that, Amanda put her head on Finn's shoulder and snuggled closer to him. "Now shut up, I'm trying to watch this." Amanda said, taking a handful of popcorn from the bowl on his lap.
Finn grinned, letting his best friend watch the princess on the screen.
They stayed like that, neither talking, until the movie was about to end. Finn prayed the movie could last a little longer, prayed that their standing up and moving from the cozy, warm couch could delay. It was almost like when he heard his alarm clock and knew he had to wake up to go to school.
Soon the movie ended, all happy and perfect, like they both knew it would.
"So. That was good." Amanda said, not moving, looking straight into the dark screen. The room was much darker now that the movie wasn't playing.
"Yep." Finn answered.
"And I have to get to Mrs. Nash's now."
"Mhmm."
"If I don't get there soon, she'll freak."
"True."
"So I have to get up from this couch."
"You do."
There was a pause.
Then Amanda sighed. "I don't want to get up."
"Don't get up."
"What, and we stay here all our lives? Here in this couch, living off popcorn?" Amanda asked. "We can't. The popcorn will end, eventually."
"We might make it through the break." Finn said, looking at her.
She returned his stare, and, after a few seconds, got up and gathered her things.
"Bye, Finn. Thanks for having me." Amanda said from the doorway.
"Traitor. You left me after five seconds." Finn said, pretending to be disappointed.
"You know," Amanda said with a grin, "I haven't ever seen Lion King."
Finn grinned back.
