Bella
Fynn remained quiet for a while before he sat up and turned to me.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" he asked calmly.
"What do you expect me to say!" I giggled nervously.
"Well you don't have to say anything, just let me be with you." Fynn said and leaned closer.
Why the hell is he so close. I'm not used to things like this.
But still I kept my cool.
I turned to him and his glossy eyes held mine firmly.
"I know you don't know what to say but can I kiss you?" Fynn asked and I felt my chest dropped to my stomach.
Of course he can.
I said nothing as my head slowly reached for his, I'm reaching out to him cause I want to and there was no stopping, Fynn with a smirk on his face, placed his hand on my face and brought his head closer to mine.
I mean it was just a kiss we've both done it before but as our heads got even closer, my body starts to boil and I almost burst out of… I didn't know if I should call it excitement? But it was far greater than excitement.
Finally our lips touched and he opened his mouth to take me in. I reciprocated that action and before we know it we were both drowning in the warmest kiss ever.
The hotness never let my body as we both let our feelings pour into the kiss. It was a feeling I had never ever felt before.
As we both kissed my hands slowly moved up to circle his neck but I stopped halfway still not having the gut. I know I'm crazy.
Fynn felt my tense hands stopped and placed his hands against mine and slowly help me lift them up to curve his neck. That gave me enough confidence that he wanted more and I pulled him closer to me.
We had both start to lose our breath but we didn't dare to stop.
I didn't know when I got up and straddled him on the bed and let his hand slip around my waist.
The kissing was so intense I never wished for it to stop, but we had to catch our breath before we'd both pass out.
I rested my forehead on fynn's head and we both rested to catch our breath.
But that was it, we were both satisfied,
Fynn hugged me around my waist and sighed.
"I wish we can be like this".
"What do you mean?" I asked.
He sighed, Again "I don't know how to explain, but I never want to let you out of my sight."
Oh my…
"Oh" I said as I let my cheeks heat up.
"I wish you can stay here and not go back to your own world. I mean we'll make a lovely family." Fynn said and I let go of him immediately.
"whoa." I laughed nervously. "We just had a kiss, doesn't mean you should start counting families".
He laughed. "I was just joking."
Good.
"I should get going, it would have passed my bedtime by now." I said and he opened his mouth to say something but I quickly placed my hand over his mouth.
"And don't you dare say I should stay here for just a brief moment." I rolled my eyes.
He moved my hand from his mouth and smiled. "You know me too well."
"Okay then, you should go, it's probably not past your bedtime but let's go" He said and got up from the bed, his height towering mine.
Wait.
I suddenly remembered the first day I saw Fynn outside my balcony when he was chasing Jojo and when we stood together, I could remember I we were the same height, he looked younger too, but now look at him, he's already towering me by far.
We both walked towards the door we both came through and Fynn turned to me and ask.
"Are you sure you want to leave?"
He's got to be kidding me.
"Yes! Yes I want to leave!" I laughed and he laughed too.
I have a twin to take care of. I don't know if they're asleep but I hope they are. They're both old enough to look after each other, but it's not funny when they start to fight.
Fynn opened the door and we both walked in and came out in my room.
What the…
"Yeah another exit leads to your room, I don't know how that's possible but." Fynn laughed nervously.
Magic is confusing, full of tricks and unpredictable.
"Okay then Fynn, it's night over here, so goodnight" I smiled.
"Goodnight Bella." he smiled.
He moved closer to me and held my hands.
What does he want again. Cause anytime our skin comes into contact I always try not to lose it.
"This is Goodnight for real and-
I shut his mouth with a kiss, cause I kind of predicted that's what he wanted to do and he reciprocated.
The kiss was brief but it held a lot of astounding feeling like the other kisses.
Like the other kisses. I laughed at my head for that and watched Fynn leave with a smile.

I tired on my bed and adjusted the loose pajama pants on my waist, am I getting skinny or what?
As I pulled my blanket over my body the door to my room opened and despite the whole house being completely dark I could tell it was Jane.
Her scent, she applies this strong body lotion before going to bed and well we're all used to the smell now.
Smells like vanilla and some kind of other smell I can't seem to decipher.
"Bella. Are you asleep" I heard her voice from the door.
"No" I replied lowly.
"Oh good." she said and turned on the light.
I sat up and watched as she walked up to me.
"What are you doing here, why aren't you asleep?" I asked.
"I can't sleep, so I decided to come here, have a word or two and maybe get sleepy" she said and I nodded and ordered her to turn off the light before joining me on the bed…
I left the night light on, it wasn't too bright but at least the room wasn't entirely dark.
My bed which I thought was small, surprisingly took the both of us in, but that was it, it was a two person limit bed, unlike theirs which could contain a whole city.
Jane and I share my blanket and we both stared at the ceiling quietly.
"I'm bored." Jane said.
"And I'm sleepy" I yawned.
"What.? Don't fall asleep without me." she whined and I laughed.
"I'll try not to."
We both remained quiet again so I started a conversation. "So how's Sean?"
A weird conversation.
"uhh? He's fine." she said awkwardly.
"Sorry for asking about him." I apologized immediately.
"It's okay, but anyways Sean is old news, honestly I still like him, but I like myself for not actually caring about that little feeling I have for him. I've moved on" Jane boasted and I smiled.
"So, how's Fynn." Jane suddenly threw the question.
"What?" I was flustered.
"Don't play dumb, you and Fynn definitely have something going on." Jane snickered.
"What do you mea-
"Oh please. Remember I caught you two kissing the other day." Jane said teasingly and I couldn't help but laugh.
"If you're going to talk about that tonight, please feel free to walk out of my room." I said and turned to my right backing her completely.
"Hey don't be like this, you asked about Sean first." Jane said as she placed her head on my shoulder.
"Well now I regret it, so let's just fall asleep and forget about it." I sighed.
"But I'm not sleepy" Jane said and wiggled my body.
She's such a pest!.
"Okay fine… Fynn is great and you want to know something, we even kissed tonight. So you happy now?" I huffed and she laughed in a creepy and weird way.
"I knew it, so are you guys dating?" Jane asked resting her cheeks against mine…
"Seriously Jane. You're such a pest" I said and pushed her off me.
"Yes I know," Jane laughed.
Honestly I've never seen this side of Jane before, very playful, sweet and whiny at the same time. I've known her to be calm and self centered sometimes egoistic.
I sighed. "No were not dating!".
"What? why? But you both obviously like each other so much" Jane said.
"Well I don't know if I like him that way." I said.
"Don't lie to yourself, it's written all over your face. You really like Fynn" Jane said.
I remained quiet as that statement laid in my head.
And I finally said. "well… I Don't know".
"Well… You have to know." Jane mimicked my tone and laughed after it.
Jane grabbed my hand, placed it around her neck, and moved closer to body, holding me around my waist she started.
"You know Bella, when you first came here, I didn't like you, i was already feeling Jealous of how pretty you were and how you also looked like one of us, I mean we're family but not related by blood at all but I could still see my mom's face in yours and my face too, I thought mom was going to start treating you nicely and forget about us, Jennifer and I talked behind your back like our life depended on it, we were stupid I agree. And then mom starts to treat you in the least way we expected and we were overjoyed, we never talked to you, not knowing you were the best to talk to. And now thinking about the days I hated you for no meaningful reason, I hate myself, and I want to apologise." Jane said.
Oh my. She's so sweet.
"It's okay", I tighten my hand around her shoulder.
"And now, it's you I love the most." she said and my heart danced.
"More than Sean." I teased.
"Seriously" she rolled her eyes.
"I was just joking." I laughed.
"I know" she said and let out an heavy sigh.
"Goodnight Bella. I'm getting sleepy now" Jane announced.
"Looks like I made you fall asleep" I giggled.
"I'll make sure to check in your room every night" Jane said and that was the last word she said before falling asleep.
I couldn't sleep it was like I transferred my sleep to her. I started to think about random things and then my head stopped at Fynn.
Do I like him.?
Was the question I had in mind before falling asleep.
But before really falling myself I remembered Jane's word and took it in.
"Don't lie to yourself, it's written all over your face. You really like Fynn".

The next morning Jane and I woke up at the same time due to my morning alarm.
"Ugh I hate morning." she said as she shoved her head Under my pillow.
"Just get your morning ass ready. It's Friday" I said and got down from the bed.
.
We all got ready and the twins made it in the car in time for me to drive us all to school.
I got to school, let the twins out and of the car and Parked the car, Jane strangely showing her sisterly affection towards me, kissed me on the cheek before leaving me.
I got to class and surprisingly bumped into Sophie.
"Watch where you're going next time. Don't be a victim of stupid mistakes." she said to me but I just ignored her.
I do pretty well with taking in cusses.
Someone suddenly hugged me from behind and I knew it was Fynn, his warmth and smell.
"Get a room, you two" sophie said in disgust and walked away.
I turned to Fynn and he had the most amazing smile ever.
"I could have asked how your night went but judging by your happy aura. I know it went great." he said and circled his hand around my shoulder as we made it to our seats.
I sat down on my seat.
But he didn't.
"So school closes early today, and I want you to come over to my house." Fynn said.
"I want to but I can't." I shook my head at him.
"What? Why? Jojo and I have something to show you." Fynn pouted.
"I have a house to take care of. Or you can come to mine. My aunt isn't home." I sighed.
"So? Is your aunt home magical? No it isn't." Fynn sighed.
"I don't know what you have to show me Fynn, but it has to wait." I said and kissed him lightly on the lips.
Wait. I didn't want to do that, I didn't even want to kiss him, I didn't even do that on my own will.
Fynn grinned.
He actually made me do that. I don't know what kind of spell or magic he has or posses but that wasn't cool.
"I'll kill you!" I said to him and he laughed.
"I'm sorry I'll never use magic on you again." he laughed.
"Bella" he called and held my hand.
"What do you want now." I sighed..
"Guess my wish"
"Guess your wish? How can I? It's your wish," I replied.
"Just try to guess what my wish is." Fynn smiled.
"Okay, to be successful…" I shrugged isn't that everybody's wish.
"I am successful, already!" he sighed.
"You are?" I laughed.
"I have everything. Including you." he said and let my heart to do its crazy dance again.
I don't know why I get flustered easily.
"Okay I'm not a good guesser" I said and slipped my hand out of his grip.
"Okay. My wish, is to be in a world where it's just the two of us. Actually the three of us. You me and Jojo," Fynn grinned.
"Just us?" I blushed.
Oh Good lord where did he learn how to make me feel like this.
