it would’ve been so easy to get mad at finn. it would’ve been probably the easiest anyone could ever do, ‘cause no, he hadn’t told anyone about the baby. only noah. his childhood best friend was the only person that knew about the baby. not even his parents, nor his room mate. not even the girlfriend he had at the time mina had broken the news to him. no one but noah knew, and it might sound bad. it might sound like he didn’t care, but really the reason he hadn’t told people was because he cared too much. she’d left him, she hadn’t even said goodbye. she was just gone one day, and to feel his heart being ripped out like that, he hadn’t been able to talk to others about it. knowing that they’d just question everything, questioning mina, the baby, how it all happened. he hadn’t had the strength to deal with everybody else whilst dealing with losing a child. but now they were back, both of them, hopefully for good. now would be the time. “ i told noah, “ he admitted to without mentioning not having told anybody else, “ i couldn’t contain missing you two, and.. therefore i couldn’t cope with telling people. not at that time, but i can assure you i promise you that you can trust me on this. and i’m gonna tell people, heck, i’m gonna scream it from the top of that shitty ass castle in disney land. i’m not … mina, there are sides to me that … i’m not playing. alright? you can trust me. “ god, his chest hurt having to talk openly about his feelings and himself like that. he could feel the poisonous sting slowly making his heart twist and turn, and he feared it failing him for a second. his physical health being another thing he had to tell her about, though he’d ask about the baby’s health first before worrying her about his own. but that’s when she revealed it to him in a sentence so beautiful. finn’s head had dropped in shame. shame of himself, his actions, his thoughts, his feelings. in shame of who he was and what he’d done. but that one word had him raise his head again and his green eyes locked with hers. “ wh- what? … i’m, we’re having a, a boy? “ he asked, and not because he didn’t believe her but because she’d caught him off guard, and frankly it showed in the surprise and happiness that suddenly was beaming from his body, the sparkle in his eyes back, and an actual smile forming upon his lips, even if it wasn’t a big one, “ we’re - we’re having a son? that’s my son? “ last question asked as he pointed to her round belly.
just by hearing that one name, she knew. finn didn’t seem like the guy that would go around yelling that he knocked up some girl he had sex with once. it was pretty sad actually. “ i get it. “ was the only thing she could comment to that, which she really did, but to keep it away from elle ... that one she didn’t really understand. “ kind of like those things where if you don’t mention it, it didn’t happen, right ? “ she asked rhetorically with her shoulders falling in a small shrug. “ cinderella’s castle .. “ mina murmured, just over the fact that she was surprised over his sudden change of expression. the two haven’t known each other for long, and to be honest she hasn’t seen many sides of finn, and to see this one was different. “ it would be cruel if i didn’t give you a chance ... but finn, i swear if something goes wrong, i can’t just, you know i can’t just stick around for the bad things when i’ve got to worry about a little one. im talking about the partying, drinking, and all that comes with it. “ with that she was serious, and even though her tone faltered to show that, she meant it. how could she be serious when he seemed shocked that they were having a boy. “ yeah, he’s yours. “ the pronoun left her lips again, confirming it. her features softened, a smile on her lips while mentioning and thinking of the baby. “ i went to an ultrasound before i came. seeing him, that just ... made me want to come here and tell you that myself. “ and for a moment, she felt like things were going to be okay. “ he’s an active kid with the amount of kicking i’ve been feeling. “ she couldn’t help talking about the baby, especially with finn. mina knew that finn was the main person she really wanted to talk about it with, she just didn’t want it on him if he didn’t want it. “ i know it’s stupid, and you’re probably not gonna want it. apparently dad’s don’t really care for it, but i’ve got a picture of the ultrasound if you want it. “
