"How are the shows going?" I asked my computer screen.
Finn shrugged. "I haven't had a chance to take a break between the shows and appearances." He laid his chin on the palm of his hand and I looked behind him, realizing he was at the arena.
I frowned at his tired eyes. "I can let you go if you want."
He shook his head as a yawn escaped his lips. "We're leaving in a bit so I wanted to facetime my girl."
My heart skipped a beat when he called me his girl. "When do you come back home?"
"Sunday." He sighed.
I mimicked him when I realized it was only Friday. "I miss you."
"I miss ya as well. How's the knee?" He rubbed a hand over his tired face.
I found myself feeling guilty for keeping him awake as I answered, "Better. I don't have much pain in it as I used too. I can walk without a limp now."
"That's great, lass." Another yawn left his lips.
"Finn," I started making myself more comfortable on the bed.
"I'm alright, love. I can talk." His eyes left the camera only for a moment before looking back. "Did ya hear the news?"
"What news?" I asked.
"I'm getting my title match in a few weeks at Beast In The East." He suddenly woke up at the thought of finally getting a shot at the NXT word title.
"Wait, isn't that in Japan?" I questioned once I remembered I had indeed heard Hunter talking about this.
Finn nodded, giving me that smile. "Are ya on tha show?"
Immediately I shook my head. "As of right now, I'm not. I should be able to come though, Hunter hasn't talked about booking me in matches yet."
Finn nodded before he mentioned about needing to go to the bathroom before they headed back out on the road. He left the camera up and I found myself scrolling through instagram on my phone waiting to return.
A smile came to my lips when I saw one of Finn's most recent post; he was outside of the arena they were at and was standing straight up, hands at his side, with that huge smile across his lips. Underneath the picture was the hashtag #finnfreeze. The longer I stared at his pictures, the more I started to miss him. I double clicked the picture, watching the heart appear.
"Boyfriend ditch you."
Jumping at the sudden voice, I looked into the camera and smiled at one of our fellow coworkers, Tom Phillips. "Hey Tom. How are the show's going?"
We continued to talk for a few more minutes and my heart jumped when Finn had came back, sitting next to Tom. "What did I miss?" He asked looking over at Tom before looking into the camera.
"Tom was just telling me that you bought yet another Lego set." I crossed my arms over my chest giving him a playful glare.
"I'd been needing this one for a long time." He defended.
"Finn, you have three unopened boxes of Lego's in the hall closet," I giggled. "Where are you going to go with all of them?"
"We'll just have to get a bigger place," he mentioned.
The fire rose in my stomach when he said we. Sighing, I pouted my bottom lip. "I miss you, Finn."
"I know what will cheer ya up," he said when he noticed my sad face.
Getting up from his chair, he stepped back a few steps before giving me the Finn freeze causing a laugh to erupt from Tom and I.
"He just started doing this," Tom stated.
"You're adorable," I smiled at him.
But the smile faded when I heard them being called. Tom gave me a small wave goodbye, leaving Finn and I alone. "You have to go?"
He nodded. "I'll call ya when I get to my hotel."
I glanced at the clock; the time here was 10:52 p.m and Finn had mentioned that it would be a long drive to the next city.
"Call me in the morning, it'll be late by the time you get there and you should rest." I gave him a weak smile.
"Are ya sure?" He asked and when I nodded, he scratched at his beard. "Alright, love. I'll call ya in tha morning. Sweet dreams."
"Goodnight Finn," we smiled at each other once more before I shut my laptop, ending the call.
Sighing, I placed my laptop on the nightstand and cuddled into bed, wrapping myself in the sheets. Staring up at the white ceiling, I found myself yearning for Finn's warm body next to me. He had only been gone for a few days and I realized that I hated feeling alone; I wanted to be with him.
The more I thought about Finn, the heavier my eyelids became and soon I found myself becoming more and more tired.
"Wait, so he's declined going out with you guys every night?" I spoke into my phone which was clutched between my shoulder and ear as I sat on one of the patio chairs that sat on Finn's balcony.
It was the next morning and I was woken up by a text from Finn saying good morning and he would call me after his signings.
"Yes. He hung out with Sami last night and all they did was play with Lego's," Sasha laugh came through the speaker. "So whatever fears you had of him cheating on you, forget them. He's a good guy, Skylar."
"He mentioned us getting a place." I sighed into the phone.
"As in together?"
Biting my lip, I spoke. "Yeah. I mean we were kind of joking around when he mentioned it so maybe it was part of the joke."
"Maybe it wasn't." By the tone in Sasha's voice I knew that sentence was followed with a shrug.
"Do you think we're moving too fast?" I sighed.
"Who cares what I think. Do you think you guys are moving too fast?"
I shook my head even though she couldn't see me. "No. I really like him, Sasha."
"So who cares. If you want to move in together, move in together."
Agreeing with Sasha, we shortly hung up awhile later after talking about a few other things. Finishing off my coffee, I walked back into the apartment and placed the mug in the sink. Sighing at the quietness, I looked around the empty apartment and decided what I should do.
A mischievous smile played at my lips as I walked into the bedroom and riffled through the dresser, pulling out a sexy set of bra and panties I had bought the other day. Quickly changing into them, I laid myself out on the bed in a sexy pose and snapped a few pictures. I bit my lip while looking through them, trying to pick out the best.
While waiting for a response, I threw one of Finn's shirt over my head and crawled into bed. I passed the time by scrolling through my phone and when it started vibrating in my hand, I broke out in a smile.
"Hello?" I chirped happily into the phone.
"Christ, are ya trying to kill me lass?" Finn's deep voice came through the other end.
"I take it as you liked the picture," a giggle escaped my lips.
"Aye very much," he groaned. "What are ya doing right now?"
Playing with the blanket, I sunk farther into the bed. "Laying in bed, wearing one of your shirts."
"Christ," he cursed changing the tone of his voice. "Why do ya do this to me?"
"I have to keep you interested somehow," I joked.
"Believe me love, I am always interested."
