Caden glanced at the box again, swallowing nervously. He had seriously considered putting it off another day or two, but he'd already put off opening it for too long. Various images flashed through his mind as he picked up the box and sat down beside Blake. He paused to shake the thoughts of horrendous colors or even the possibility of an empty box from his mind, exhaling slowly. "It's only my future right? No reason to freak out." 

Before he could push the box away again, Caden tore the top open and reached his hand inside, wrapping his fingers around the pendant before pulling it out. Slowly he turned his fist over, opening it up to reveal a reddish hue. Caden leaned back into the couch with relief, happy to finally see his necklace. "Could have been a worse color right?" He laughed the rest of the nerves off, pushing himself up from the couch. He quickly clasped the necklace around his neck before turning to each of his guests. "I'm getting a soda from the fridge. You guys want anything while I'm out there?"
