"What do you mean you don't want to come out tonight? You have too!" Sasha's voice echoed in my ears.

A sigh left my lips while I finished unpacking the last box. Closing the kitchen cabinet, I clutched the phone closer to my ear. "Why?"

"Because it's a celebration for Finn. Your boyfriend?"

"The last time we all went out nearly destroyed our relationship." I reminded Sasha as I took a much needed break by sitting on the chair. Today Finn went back to work while I made it my mission to unpack all of our things. We were officially moved out of the apartment and into this gorgeous home.

"That was forever ago. You both have moved on, he friggin bought you a house Skylar. You guys are in a good place." Sasha sighed, sounding defeated.

Feeling a tad guilty, I let out a very long breath before nodding, even though she couldn't see me. "Fine. But I'm not kissing Sami this time."

That caused Sasha to roar in laughter. We both said our goodbye's and before getting ready, I sent Finn a quick text.

So I've decided to come out tonight.-Skylar

He replied almost instantly.

Check the closet-Finn

Curiosity took over as I leaped off the couch and took the stairs two steps at a time, sprinting into mine and Finn's shared closet. Once the light switched on, a gasp left my lips. The lace immediately grabbing my attention.

"I swear to God, Finn," I breathed while gripping the material.

Not wasting anymore time, I ran into our shared bathroom, stripping off my clothes in the process, and turned on the shower.

Once I was free from today's sweat, I wrapped a towel around me and immediately started working on my hair and makeup. Like Sasha had mentioned, everyone at NXT are throwing a party for Finn for winning the title. It wasn't at a typical club that we were used too so I had to make sure I dressed extra "fancy" remember Sasha's words from earlier. I was Finn's girlfriend so I had to make sure I looked hot.

After my hair was curled and makeup was flawless, I carefully stepped into the dress and once I was completely ready, I looked myself in the mirror, gawking at my reflection. Finn definitely did an amazing job picking this dress out. He was going to have his hands full with keeping guys away from me tonight.

"Hello?"

Raising my eyebrows at the strange voice, I quickly strapped on my black heels and walked downstairs towards the visitor. When I made it to the bottom on the stairs, I was met with a well dressed back and when the person turned around, a smile broke out on my face.

"Sami!"

I jumped into his open arms, squeezing him tight. I hadn't seen him since the incident at Full Sail and needless to say, I was missing my best friend.

Sami set me down, a low whistle leaving his lips. "You look amazing."

I nodded towards him. "You as well."

"I do clean up nice, don't I?" He joked, pulling at his suit jacket.

Laughing at his jokes, I grabbed my clutch, making sure I had everything. "What are you doing here?"

"Finn mentioned you could use a ride." Sami eyes traveled throughout the house. "Nice place."

"I can give you the tour later, were running late." I grabbed his hand, oblivious to the look that flashed across his face, and walked out of the house.

After we were officially on the road, I turned my body to face Sami as he drove. "How've you been? I feel like I haven't talked to you in forever."

Sami nodded. "Good. Busy. I take it Japan was good?"

I couldn't help the smile that came to my face. "Real good. I feel kind of bad though."

Sami gave me a side eye. "Why?"

"Finn and I have been so busy with the move and everything that we haven't actually had time to celebrate his win." I shrugged.

"That's what tonight's for," Sami patted my knee.

Something was off with him, I couldn't quite pick out what, but Sami seemed really stand offish with me. Not wanting to press into it, afraid of ruining our friendship, I kept my mouth shut as we pulled into a parking lot. My eyes traveled to what looked like an abandoned warehouse.

"What is this place?" I questioned Sami while he shut off the car.

"It may look like shit on the outside but trust me, it's a lot nicer inside." Sami climbed out of the car, me following.

"How do I look?" I asked while smoothing out any wrinkles from my dress.

Sami's eyes went dark as he looked me over, a slow lick of his lips caught my eye. "Gorgeous."

Feeling the sexual tension, I quickly nodded towards the building, hearing the loud bass of the music. "We should probably head inside."

Sami nodded and I followed a few steps behind him around the building and up some steps that looked like it was fire escape. Sami extended his hand down towards me and I took it gratefully as he pulled me to the top of the roof. Once I was safe on my feet, our hands still intertwined, I looked around and knew Sami was telling the truth.

My eyes marveled at how beautiful this place was set up and I felt an overwhelming feeling of love that this was all for my boyfriend.

Finn.

Turning my head from side to side, I tried to look over the sea of people that had shown up but failed.

"He's right over there," Sami motioned towards the bar of the rooftop.

Sure enough, Finn was leaning against the bar, smiling and laughing with one of his co workers, Enzo. As if he felt me staring, Finn looked over to my direction, smile never faltering. Suddenly feeling our hands still intertwined, Sami dropped mine and walked to the other side of the rooftop, away from me.

Biting my lip at his actions, I blew out a breath before making my way over to Finn.

"Hi," I breathed laying a soft kiss to his cheek. He was dressed in black jeans, a grey button up, and his trademark leather jacket.

"Ya look absolutely breathtaking," Finn mused looking me over.

"Thank you for the dress. You've been spoiling me a lot lately." Guilt raked against my voice.

"Anything for ya, mo chuisle." Finn gripped the necklace he bought me.

Smiling, I placed my hand over his. Out of everything Finn had ever bought me, this was without a doubt my favorite. I never took it off.

His hands felt warm against my chest. "You should probably mingle with people."

I went to go walk away but Finn's hands gripped my hips. "Yar not going anywhere."

For the next while, Finn and I talked with some of our friends from NXT, me mostly catching up with them. Throughout the night, I felt eyes on my back and every time I turned my head, that gaze would vanish. Sighing, I turned my attention back to Finn and Sasha, who had joined us a bit ago, taking a small sip of my drink.

Feeling the stare again, I quickly turned my head and finally found the culprit; Sami.

He was sitting at one of the couches, slowly nursing beer while keeping his gaze trained on Finn's hand that was placed on my lower back.

"Have you guys talked with Sami at all?" I questioned Sasha and Finn.

They both shook their heads.

"Why?" Sasha raised her eyebrows at me.

I shrugged before meeting Finn's gaze. "He's been really weird around me. He wont stop staring at me."

Both Sasha and Finn looked over to Sami's direction and expecting Finn to get upset, I was shocked when I saw his face fall. "What?"

Running a hand over his face, Finn sucked in his bottom lip, an action I'd come to realize he did when he was hiding something from me.

"Finn, tell me." I pressed.

"I promised I wouldn't." Finn sighed.

Sasha and I shared looks before hearing Finn groan. "Skylar, he likes ya. A lot."

Nearly choking on my drink, I looked between Sami and Finn. "He told you that?"

Finn shrugged. "He didn't have ta."

"I feel like a shit friend," I groaned.

"Hon, it's not your fault. Sami understands you're with Finn. It sucks for him but he'll get over it." Sasha tried to reassure me.

"I don't have feelings for him like that, Finn." I started but he silenced me by laying a kiss on my lips, shutting me up.

"I know."

Smiling, I wrapped my arms around him. Suddenly, the first few notes of my favorite song sounded throughout the night sky and I looked up to Finn. He merely nodded while pulling on my hand, leading me towards an open area of the roof that was designated for dancing.

The Edge of Tonight by All Time Low sang throughout the sky while Finn pulled me into his embrace, me wrapping my arms around his neck. Our bodies started to sway to the music and when our eyes locked at my favorite verse, I nearly blurted out those three words.

'cause I can't breathe without you near

you keep me safe

you keep me sane

you keep me honest

Finn moved a loose strand of hair from my face before locking his gaze with my own. As soon as our eyes connected, his went dark, showing me that the demon was starting to surface. My throat went dry, afraid of what was about to come. My heart suddenly swelled at the sweet sound of Finn's voice coming out quiet, singing the song.

You keep me alive,

on the edge of tonight,

chasing tomorrow,

with fire in my eyes,

you're like a siren in the dark,

you're the beat playing in my heart,

you keep me alive,

on the edge of tonight

"Finn," I breathed, placing a hand to his cheek. Our lips met in a passionate kiss but Finn pulled away after a few beats.

His eyes were still fixated on mine and with the deep stare he was giving me, I was sure I would melt right in his arms. While our bodies continued to sway, I couldn't take the intense stare anymore.

"What?"

I noticed his lips trembled before he let out a large breath I had no idea he was holding. "Mo chuisle."

"Hm?" I asked, a smile tugging at my lips.

Finn buried his face deep into my neck. "I love you," his hot breath fanned against me.

My body stiffened when I heard those same three words I had been afraid to say. Finn loved me? He felt the same? How long had he felt this way?

Feeling him squeeze my hips, I shook out of my thoughts and brought his face meters from mine, locking our eyes together.

I quickly licked my lips. "I love you too, Finn." Our lips crashed together in a fiery, passionate kiss; one that we had never shared together before.
