The talk

"Darling, you are all I ever wanted love to be"

I really did not need this
"Are you even listening?"
I didn't need this at all.

"Finn!"
"What?" I groaned, letting my head fall back against the chair
"You need to listen. We don't need Nala getting pregnant" Pol snapped
"Oh my god!" I groaned.

"Pay attention"
I straightened up at the sound of Tommy
He came striding into the bedding den from the house
"You need to listen to her. Cause if you knock her up you're gonna have to step up. And you can barely tie your shoelaces" he said.

I crossed my arms and sunk back into my seat
Dick...
"I get it okay. But I doubt I'll be getting her pregnant anytime soon" I said
Pol crossed her arms and smirked at me
"Can I go now?" I asked desperately
"Yes. You can go" she said.

I immediately got up, ready to get to the garrison
I just know they're teasing Nala as much as they can.
"But" Pol shouted out, I stopped with a sigh, turning back round.

"When the time does come. Make sure you don't cum in her" she said
"Pol" I said shocked, I could already feel my cheeks heat up
I really didn't need to hear her say that
"Listen to her. She's right" Tommy said.

I tried not to shrink into a ball of embarrassment, and merely just nodded, before I left as quick as I could
I just wanted everyone to stop.

It was mine and Nala's business, no one else's
I headed over to the garrison, where I found them all sat in the private room
"Hey here he is" John laughed, his arm swung round Nala as he pointed at me.

"Now that. Nal. That is pure Shelby genes. You'll be pregnant like that" he said, clicking his fingers
I felt that redness creep up my cheeks again as she giggled at me, shuffling over in the booth.

She patted the space next to her, so I sat beside her, Isaiah chuckling on the other side of me
It was natural for me and Nala to be close
For her to put her hand in mine while we sat
Or for her to rest her head against me when she got too drunk.

But now. Now we liked each other
It was... weird. Awkward
I felt like I couldn't touch her or she'd think I'm making some sort of move
Or the guys would just tease me.

I felt oddly happy. It was like a massive weight had been lifted off my shoulders, like I could finally breathe
But Finn seemed... off
He kept avoiding my eyes or talking to Isaiah
Leaving me with John.

"You got a wedding dress then eh?" John asked
I rolled my eyes, hitting him lightly in the shoulder
"Shut up" I said
He smirked, before leaning back, his arms either side up on the back of the booth.

"Come on then" he said
"Come on what?" I asked curiously, leaning in closer away from Finn and Isaiah's conversation
"When are you going to bless the poor boy?" He chuckled.

I knew what he meant. There wasn't much else John ever spoke about
But me and Finn were very early days
We were still trying to find our feet
It had only been a few hours for Christ sake.

"We're not talking about this" I said
"Ah come on Nal. You're teenagers, you're supposed to be care free and dumb" he said
I chuckled at him, taking a swig of my drink
"Carefree and dumb got you 5 kids" I laughed, watching him quickly crumble into a scowl.

"Will you quit it?" I asked for the thousandth time
"Come on I know you want it" Isaiah chuckled
"No. I don't. You know she'll kill me" I grumbled, keeping my voice hushed.

"One day and you're already whipped" he laughed, sitting back and putting the snow back in his jacket pocket
"Fuck. Off" I said simply
"I'm joking I'm joking..." he said, patting me on the back.

"We all know you've been whipped way before today" he laughed
"Well..." John spoke up, turning our attention back their way
I glanced at Nala, who offered me a small smile
She was so fucking beautiful. Why the fuck did she like me?

"I best be going" he said
"Running home to the wife?" Arthur asked with a smile
"Mm, call it whatever you want brother. But I'm going home to get some whereas you are going home to get a bollocking from Linda" he said, patting his shoulder.

"Yeah yeah, least when I do get home I won't have any kids nagging me" he laughed, standing up as well
"You're leaving too?" Nala asked
"Yeah, might as well, you two have fun tho eh?" He said, winking at me.

I wished they'd just fucking stop
"You know what? I'll walk with you" Isaiah spoke up
"You're leaving as well?" I asked
He smirked
"Need to see a man about a dog... and a woman about a pus-"

"Goodnight Isaiah" Nala interrupted.
He laughed, reaching into his pocket again and pulling out the snow to show her
"Don't worry... I will" he grinned
She rolled her eyes, before they all started shuffling out the booth.

I felt Nala's hand slide down into mine, shocking me
"Just us two then" she smiled up at me, turning to face me more
"Yeah... just us" I said, swallowing hard as I stared down at her.

"Want another drink?" She asked, I nodded
I think I'm gonna need them.

Its been hours since we were left alone
And hours of drinking
So much so we had to hold onto each other as we staggered down Watery lane
"Ssh" Finn said, shutting the door behind him.

I couldn't help but laugh at him
Before he stumbled over the doormat and grabbed my hand, dragging me up the stairs with him
"Finn" I giggled, trying to be quiet.

Pol would raise hell if we woke her up
I shut Finn's bedroom door behind me, as he fell face first onto the bed
We'd always share a room
After a night out...

After a hangover
After any event Thomas planned
It was just... natural for us
But now there was the underlying tension
The... weirdness

He rolled onto his back, before he sat up and looked at me
Leaning back on his elbows
I pushed myself off the door and walked over to him.

As best I could...
Before falling down next to him
"Finn..." I spoke up
"Yeah darl?" He asked, falling flat on his back again.

"I... I love you" I said, turning my head to the left to look at him
He grinned. That boyish cheeky grin that made my heart melt
"I love you too" he sighed happily
I sat up, pulling my dress off so I was left in my underdress, before I laid back down and cuddled into Finn's side.

Morning came way quicker than I had expected
I felt like I'd had barely any sleep
Finn laid next to me snoring his head off
In just his trousers and a vest
He looked... dead to the world
His cheeks were all rosy and his arm lay underneath my head.

"Finn?" I called out gently, shaking him slightly
He groaned, throwing his free arm over his eyes
"Finn?" I said again, leaning into his hold
"Mm... what?" He called out sleepily
"Wake up" I chuckled.

He just hummed lightly, but nothing happened
So I took my own initiative
I leaned in and kissed the side of his cheek. And his entire body jolted
"Finn" I whispered, kissing his cheek again, then the side of his neck.

"Nal" he said but I didn't stop
I decided to make a move. A bold one. But I loved Finn. And I'm sick of holding myself back from kissing him now he knows how I feel
I shifted on the bed, straddling him much to his surprise

"What are yo-"
I cut him off, leaning down and kissing him softly, my hands bracing against his shoulders
It took him a moment before he kissed me back, sitting up as his hands encircled my waist
I couldn't help but moan slightly against him.

It felt so surreal, actually feeling his hands across my skin, his lips moving against my own
He was... everything in this moment
I slid my hands down his chest, before I gripped his vest and pulled it off his body.

It was only a split second, but the brief pause that we weren't kissing felt like torture
Until his lips pressed against mine again and the fire returned
The heat travelling all through my body and creating goosebumps along my skin.

"Finn" I breathed out, kissing down his neck
It felt so right. So good
Until... he pushed me off him
"Finn?" I asked
"I... I can't" he said, standing up
"What?" I asked, sitting up
"I just... I can't Nala" he said, leaving the room.

What the hell just happened?
