As Finn stepped over the threshold of the cafe, he cringed at the memory of his last visit and the rush of confused emotion that accompanied him then. The only thing Finn knew last time he was here was that he didn't like the thought of Rae and Archie mackin' on each other.

Then he had silently fumed when he saw Rae dressed up like Chloe. She'd never have to do that with him. He may have only known her a short time, but he knew that the made-up creature before him was not the one that had spiced up his dreams lately.

Now, Finn knew what his feelings meant and that frustratingly, fascinating new thing had become an integral piece in his life.

Sitting at a table against the far wall of the cafe, Finn tapped out a tune on the table, idly glancing at his watch, timing Archie's lateness.

Suddenly, a familiar frame with flowing raven hair swept into his peripheral view. Finn's stomach knotted uncomfortably. What was she doing here? Was it just a coincidence? Narrowing his eyes, Finn's thoughts darkened; what was Archie playing at?

He saw Rae's double take through the window, furrowing her brows, she pushed through the doors, making her way to him, looking uneasy and alert.

"Wha ya doin' here?"

Rattling his watch, Finn sat up straighter, "What do ya mean wha am I doin' 'ere? What are you doin' here?"

"Meetin' Archie." They spoke in chorus.

Rae placed her bag on the laminate table, folding her arms on top. "So what's this about?"

Finn shrugged. "Dunno." An idea was quickly forming though and if he wasn't so ecstatic, he'd be pissed at Archie. Scratching at his temple he said, "S'pose it's his way of making things up to us."

"What do ya mean?"

"Fer standing you up and makin' me do his dirty work for 'im."

"So he set us up on a date?" Rae's incredulous expression grated on Finn's last nerve.

"What's wrong with that? -The way it shoulda been in the first place." Oh lord, if Finn could knock himself upside the head, he would, but too late to take it back now.

He swore Rae's eyes were as big as saucers."Say what?"

"Me an you that should'ave been on the date before, not you an Archie."

Shaking her head, "You couldn't even stand me then!"

"That's not truth! I was trying to figure ya out and it irritated me, every time I thought I had ya measure, ya surprised me again, which irritated me even more. You drive me bloody crazy!" Finn huffed in distress. That did not come out right.

Scoffing, she replied with a derisive, "Thanks."

Rolling his eyes, Finn snapped, "That's not what I mean an ya know it!"

"Then what do ya mean, Finn?"

Now he wanted to bolt. Could he do this? He'd never been one to back down before, but then again Rae seemed to be conjuring a lot of firsts within him. Come to think of it the Eagles 'Witchy Woman' did describe a girl with raven hair and ruby lips, sparks certainly do fly from her and Finn knew he wouldn't mind getting singed a bit.

"I want you."
