 It has been almost a full month since I slept over at Jaylen's house after the whole asking out Jocelyn debacle and he has somehow convinced me to go to a party. I hate parties but Jaylen made it so hard to say no with his stupid puppy dog eyes. Isaac and I were getting ready at around eight-thirty pm at my house when my phone started buzzing.

Jaylen:

Sup, were almost to yours. R U almost ready?

Me:

Yeah, I just have to fix my hair.

Jaylen:

Alrighty. What you wearing to the party?

Me:

K, be right out.

"Hey, guys." Isaac said as we entered Leo's two-row van. Everyone responded with similar acknowledgments. Leo drove, with Evie in the passenger seat, and Jaylen, Isaac, and I in the backseat while I sat between them. We were about five minutes into the drive when Jaylen subtly put his hand on the part of my thigh closest to my knee but his jacket was covering it so you wouldn't be able to tell. Maybe it was an accident or maybe I'm just imagining it. "Is this alright?" He asked through a whisper in my ear. Nope, I'm definitely not imagining this. I turned my head slightly to look at him while I awkwardly nodded my head yes as an answer.

 I sat the rest of the fifteen-minute drive in silence while everyone else (except for Isaac because he finds it embarrassing) sang 'Pictures of girls' by wallows at the top of their lungs while Jaylen's hand stayed placed on my leg (not that I'm complaining). When we got there people were already passed out on the lawn and the music was blaring. It wasn't even nine yet. When Jaylen got out of the car his hand immediately found its place on my waist (let me say again that I am definitely not complaining.) Isaac seemed to be the only one that noticed this small gesture because he gave me a knowing smile when we walked through the door.

 The second we walked in Dennis was at our side. "Hey, babe." Dennis greeted Isaac. Isaac responded with a kiss. "Hey Kaylas, long time no see." He told me. "Yeah, it's been a while." I commented awkwardly. "I'm gonna go get us some drinks." Jaylan yelled to me over the music and I nodded my head in reply. "Kaylas come talk with us." Isaac yelled as he dragged Dennis into a quieter corner. 

 "So Kaylas how long have you and that guy been dating?" Dennis asked casually. I gave him a confused look. "He's talking about Jaylen." Isaac clarified, almost making me choke. "Jaylen?" I yelled in surprise. "Yeah?" Jaylen questioned as he appeared next to me, making me jump. "Dennis was just wondering how long you and Kaylas have been dating." Isaac told Jaylen with a smirk. "We're not dating yet." Jaylen told Dennis. Yet? Did I hear that right? I don't think he meant to say that. He probably didn't mean it like that.
