Before any words could be said, or Jason could react to the building crowd, he was taken against his will by Sierra. She grabbed his arm, shoving past the crowd of ridiculously-loud people. He wouldn’t have minded it as much if it wasn’t for the fact that she referred to him as “Coffee Guy.” Jay’s first impression of her — the impression that he imagined several times in his head going differently — was not forever ruined. Instead of her knowing him first as Jason Singh, she would know him as the Coffee Guy. If Jay hadn’t died from the embarrassment, being alone with her would sure do the trick.

And yet, when they were alone, Jay wasn’t. Sure, his heart was beating faster than it had ever before, and he was sweating bullets through his shirt. Thank the gods that he was wearing dark colors or else he’d have another reason to want to die right now. 

But of course, that other reason would come anyways.

“[color=springgreen]What?[/color]” 

That’s all Jay could mutter out. Usually when a person says that, it meant they didn’t hear what the other person said, but Jay heard what she said. He just didn’t know what else to say at the moment. It caught him off-guard. Even more to the point, how was he supposed to answer that question? Should he say that he had been ‘checking her out’ as Rhett said? If he did, that would mean that Jay would have to face one of his worst fears of her finding out. Well, at least the fear of her not returning any feelings that he had for her. Knowing Jay, he would somehow reveal how he felt about her even though this is the first time she has even laid eyes on her.

“[color=springgreen]I, uh..[/color]” 

Come on Jay! Get a hold of yourself. You can do this. Just talk normally. 

“[color=springgreen]That is to say..[/color]” 

Oh just spit it out, already. 

“[color=springgreen]I’m afraid not. I don’t know why he thought I was, but what he said wasn’t true.[/color]” Jay was lying obviously. He was looking at her, but he wasn’t going to let her know that. If he could, he would take that secret with him to the grave. “[color=springgreen]The only time I was looking at you was when he called me over. I’m sorry he made you think otherwise.[/color]” 

Jay looked at Sierra, unsure what to say beyond what he just did. He found the silence uncomfortable. He needed to do something that would kill it. But what? Jay didn’t know. He was freaking out. His eyes occasionally going away from the sight of those two sea-inspired orbs of hers. Jason dared not to look at her directly, but he couldn’t help it. This was the closest he had ever gotten to her. Even though his cover and secret were made, for some odd reason, that didn’t matter to Jay. Just looking at her was enough.

If there was one word that Jade would use to describe the scene, it was chaos. With Rhett boasting loud rhetoric, Archie making Jay’s anxiety even worse, and JAckson being as loud as ever, Jade was beginning to wonder exactly why she came over in the first place? Of course she came to look out for Jay, but he was pulled away with Sierra. That had to add heaps of anxiety to his already high levels of it. Jade had half of a mind to follow them. She almost did if it wasn’t for Rhett and his spontaneous idea.

“[color=e62020]A party? Yeah, sure. I can always get down with a kickback.[/color]” Jade said with a grin. She was never one to turn down a party invite. Who knows? Maybe she would get with someone. It won’t be Rhett obviously, but definitely some potential.

When Rex inquired to Jade about Beverly Hills High’s resident Symphonic Metal celebrity, Eve, Jade shrugged. “[color=e62020]Not exactly close, but I guess we’re kind of tight. Not sure if she would come, but I’ll check it ou--[/color]”

“[color=e32636]WAIT A TICK!?[/color]” Jackson loudly interrupted.

“[color=e62020]Yes doofus? Is there something on your mind?[/color]”

“[color=e62020]You’re on talking terms with Eve!?[/color]”

“[color=e62020]Not best friends forever-type, but good enough to hold a conversation, yes.[/color]”

“[color=e32636]So, she acknowledges you. Introduce us.[/color]”

“[color=e62020]And why would I do that?[/color]”

Jade knew exactly why Jackson was getting all excited and on-edge about Eve. She knew he had a massive crush for her, but all efforts in the past to get her to notice him had been in vain. What made him think that a little help from Jade would make it any different? She wanted to save him the heartache of getting crushed again, but he was adamant. Jackson had that look of determination that Ely had often spoke of about Jackson.

Jade shrugged. “[color=e62020]Fine. As long as you don’t embarrass me, you can come with.[/color]” Jade said. JAckson made a ‘yahooo’ noise. Jade rolled her eyes.

Before they left, however, Jade made her way over to Ely. “[color=e62020]I’m gonna bounce. The dumbass over there is dying to meet Eve. I doubt it’ll go well, so just a heads up if he calls you crying or whatever.[/color]” Jade leaned closer to Ely’s ear, biting it rather naughtily, [sub]“[color=e62020]you still owe me a free grab, babe.[/color]”[/sub] she whispered.

And so they both were off. Jackson bumped Rhett’s fist with his own. “[color=e32636]Stay money, man.[/color]” he said. Jade rolled her eyes.

They left for Eve. Whether it would end badly or horribly remained to be seen. Jade did warn him, but he insisted. She would simply be a bystander of the carnage. Hopefully Eve doesn’t crush him too bad.
