He what?

Millie's POV:

"Why did the girl put lipstick on her head?" Sadie asked with a wide smile in her face.

"Why?" Caleb asked smirking.

"So she could make up her mind." Sadie finished bursting into laughter. We all laughed too, me laughing lightly.

"Millie?" I heard a soft voice ask behind me. I turned around to see Sophia. She was smiling at me lightly.

"Hey Sophia, what's up?" I asked smiling at her. She rubbed her arm and looked down.

"Can I talk to you, alone?" She asked. I furrowed my eyebrows and nodded standing up to follow her. We walked outside the cafeteria to the hallway. She seemed really nervous.

"What's the matter?" I questioned. She didn't make eye contact.

"Okay so this is hard to tell you but... Finn didn't cheat on you." She told me. I furrowed my eyebrows and crossed my arms.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean he didn't cheat on you. It was all a set up from Iris. I didn't tell you because I was told not to, but Finn has left now so I figured I could. I know it is all crazy." Sophia said shaking her head frantically, waving her hands everywhere.

"Sophia you are making no sense. You are telling me that Finn did actually cheat on me and that Iris set me up?" I asked to verify. She nodded and I breathed in warily. "How do I know you aren't lying? I mean there was picture proof!" I exclaimed laughing a bit. This was all so confusing. Finn was in the past, he is gone now.

"I was there, I took the picture. Yes, Finn and Iris did kiss but he wasn't cheating. It was before you two had even started dating." She told me. Things felt fuzzy, I was so confused.

"I know the picture was recent, they dated like a few years ago." I said.

"Yeah they did used to date but that's not what I mean. The party that Jack hosted at the beginning of the year. When you and her got in an argument on the porch and after that she kissed Finn in surprise. He pushed her off and said he was uninterested and all that happened before you two even dated. She sent it up to look that way. She asked me to take the picture." Sophia continued quickly. I tried my best to process all of this. It was too much. How did I know she wasn't lying.

"I don't know why I did it, I'm sorry. But I thought you should know the truth." Sophia told me.

Part of me believed her and part of me didn't. And most of me was full on confused. The picture looked so recent but Sophia's story made sense. But she could be lying. There was only one way I could find out if it was the truth. If Finn actually cheated on me.

I remember, he said he didn't.

I walked back into the cafeteria up to Iris. Iris looked up at me first surprised but then she smirked.

"Hello Millie." She greeted. I wanted to slap off her smirk so badly but I restrained myself.

"Iris I have a question." I told her crossing my arms over my chest. I noticed how the cafeteria noticeably got quieter.

"Millie you have so many questions and yet so little answers. What do you want?" She asked also crossing her arms over her chest.

"Is it true that Finn didn't cheat on me? And that you set me up?" I asked her with noticeable fury. She looked surprised by my question.

She hesitated before saying, "So Sophia told you. Well I guess it doesn't matter anymore. Finn is gone, he left a month ago. But yes, yes I did set him up."

I felt so enraged and that was an understatement. Finn, beautiful, sweet, genuine Finn didn't cheat on me. All of this waisted time. And he tried telling me and... and I pushed him away. He did like me, he didn't cheat on me. And now he was gone. That hole that was meant to be filled will never be filled. He is gone.

"Millie, hello?" Iris waved her hand in my face. Apparently I was in a trance.

"What?!" I snapped feeling so angry like I could snap. "How could you do this Iris?" I yelled. If no one was looking before they were looking now. "How can you be so cold hearted to break up a relationship? But that isn't even the real problem. You turned everyone against Finn. You made his life hell, my life hell. How on earth, could you be that cruel?" I asked.

Flashbacks of me crying on so many nights. Thinking that the man I had felt so strongly for had cheated on me, but he hadn't. I even cried when I found out he left. I hated him yet I still liked him in my heart. Iris ruined everything.

I couldn't take it anymore. I couldn't take school or Iris anymore. I had to leave. So I did I ran out of the cafeteria, out of the school. I ran away until I was knocking on Finn's old houses door. There must be some explanation...

Finn's dad opened the door, looking rough as usual. What a sad excuse for a father. I wonder if he was always like this. "Where is Finn?" I demanded.

He started to laugh a very nasty and hoarse laugh. It made me cringe. "Your about 1 month to late girly." He laughed.

"I know I am. Do you have any Idea where he might of gone?" I asked. He smirked and shook his head.

"I was able to beat some sense in him to leave. I don't care where he is." I clenched my jaw. I wanted to beat him right now. He was so annoying I could just punch him. But he was way bigger than me so I shouldn't.

"Let me just say something real quick." I said and he nodded gesturing me. "I don't know how you can live with yourself. You broke a perfectly good boy. Finn was the perfect child, he could have been everything for you. And then you decide to ruin him. Finn was so good and you try to bring him down. I can never respect you for that. I don't think I could even look in the mirror. That's all." I started to walk away but then I turned back and gave him the middle finger.

"Millie he disabled everything. I don't know what to tell you, there is no way he can be found." David told me while we were sitting down in the living room.

"I could text him." I recommended.

"I doubt he would respond." He replied. My shoulders slumped and I felt like falling apart.

I made a huge mistake. And I missed Finn so much. I should have let him explain himself before jumping to conclusions.

I pulled out my phone and pulled up Finn's contact.
