I can’t describe what I’m feeling. His words strike a chord. Jayden’s staring at me like his life depends on it, and I feel bad. I feel bad for not giving him my full attention. I owe him that at least.
I find myself smiling and nodding my head. We continue dancing and I focus on him, focus on this moment, and as the song comes to an end, I find myself staring into his eyes, lost in the intensity of his gaze. I don’t know what’s happening between us, but it’s undeniable. And as much as I try to fight it, a part of me is drawn to him, just as much as I am to Kieran.
“I wish I could kiss you right now,” He says audibly, and my brain can’t process it. It took me by surprise. I just freeze, and the piano player starts another song. Another ballad, maybe a love song.
Jay
