Burnt Sugar [F.W]

"I had nightmares last night, because of you!" Ayla jokingly said.
"Ooh, I'm too important, aren't I?"
"Shut up! I literally couldn't sleep last night, I woke up drenched in sweat."
"Don't blame it on me! You were probably dreaming of Jack kissing you again_"
"Shut up!" She blushed.
"Ayla I am pretty sure he likes you!"
"Really? I mean... I don't know..."
"What don't you know?"
"Why Finn hugged you." Ayla changed the subject.
"Ayla don't overthink everything. He was probably mixed up in his mind and he suddenly felt the urge to hug? I don't know." I said shrugging my shoulders.
"Whatever, I'm still concerned." She rolled her eyes.
"Unnecessary concern!"
"Ok, enough! You packed?"
"Yeah, you?"
"Yup."
"The boys went to check out so we better get out before they find out we're still here."
We both giggled.
"We woke up so late and I am really not feeling like eating breakfast so let's just grab lunch at the airport before our flight."
"But as our flight is at 2:30 we can have lunch on board." Ayla said.
"You mean those tiny plates of meatballs that don't make me feel full?"
"When you put it that way..."

-Time Skip > Vancouver-

"I...am...ex... exhausted." I said like I was drunk.
"If you can lead yourself to your own bed I guess I have to say goodnight." Ayla giggled.
"I'm not drunk! I'm just sleepy..."
"But you're definitely acting like you drank too much of something!"
"Why don't you just go get some sleep?"
"Fine, goodnight."
"Night."

• Finn's POV

The aesthetic view of my window again!
April could barely walk to her bed.
She just turned off the light and fell on the bed without changing.
I can't sleep.
Why do I keep saying strange things?
Why do I keep doing strange things?
Why am I even talking to myself?!

• April's POV

I woke up by thousands of sun rays hitting my face.
I changed into my comfy clothes and sat on my bed.
Without any definite thing to do, I placed my palms on my laps.
I feel pissed off and depressed.
It's normal, at least about me.
I get awkwardly sad every once in a while without any reason.
I started sobbing like crazy.
Why am I like this?
I feel like I lack something, I miss something.
But can one miss something they've never had? Because I am pretty sure I haven't lost anything recently.
I need someone to help me.
I need a warm hug right now.
I need someone's presence who really cares.
I need something or someone to lean on.
I need someone to hear me out.
I need someone to see my tears and hug me without even asking why I am crying.
So where the hell are you when I need you?!
Do you sometimes need me too?
If yes, I'm sorry that I can't be there to help.
I'm sorry that you don't have my presence.
I'm sorry you can't lean on me.
I'm sorry I can't hear you out.
I'm sorry I can't hug you when you cry.
I'm sorry.
I need you very much now.
This is awkward. Wanna call it other half or the same parallel you.
I don't know who you are.
I don't know if you're near or far.
But in this very moment I need you.

• Finn's POV

I didn't sleep last night. I would fall asleep once in a while but it wouldn't take long to wake up.
Each time I woke up I would check on everyone, Ayla, Malcolm and Jack.
I appreciated their presence but I still felt lonely.
I looked out of my window it was light this time.
Sunlight shone over trees and bushes.
I was breathing pure oxygen till I spotted a sobbing April in front of me.
She was sitting on her bed like she would hug her knees but instead her hands just covered her face.
When she put her palms down I noticed a pair of red, puffy eyes.
Everybody was still asleep so I decided to go check on her.
