neighbors: A jaden hossler story

7

after we get the snacks, we head to my house for a game night. we play monopoly and josh ends up winning. we watch some movies until we all get tired and head to bed. bryce goes in his room, josh and nessa go to the guest room, and me and jaden sleep in my room.

i wake up the next morning at 10, but i cant get up due to my body being entangled in jaden's. my blinds are open, so the sun is shining through and its hitting jaden perfectly as he sleeps. he looks so peaceful. its like he can sense me staring at him because not soon after he starts stirring awake.

"good morning sleeping beauty" i whisper and slightly laugh

"morning baby" he rasps as i blush at the pet name. he's gotten a lot more touchy and open with me.

i go to get up but am pulled back by jadens strong arms "dont leave" he sleepily says

"j i have to go to the bathroom ill be right back i promise" i say, prompting him to let me go. when i come back i find jaden now on his phone, sitting against my headboard. i go and sit next to him, leaning my head on his shoulder and watching tiktok with him. after a while we decide to get up and head downstairs for food.

"good morning" we hear nessa say as we reach the bottom of the stairs, finding everyone else down there

"sleep well?" bryce asks while laughing

me and jaden eat breakfast and then josh and nessa go home. bryce goes up to his room and me and jaden go to mine

"you should dance for me" jaden says suddenly

"what" i ask surprised

"idk you always talk about how your a dancer and i know you're working on stuff for your studio, i kinda want to see it. if youre okay with that of course i dont wanna make you uncomfortable" he rambles

"no no its okay, id love to show you" i reassure him

we go into my studio room and i quickly warm up and stretch while explaining to him the process of choreographing a dance.

"its kind of like how you write songs" i explain while stretching my straddle "and kind of for the same reason too. i started dance because my mom put me into when i was 3, but i continued to dance because i loved it and i needed it. it helps me express things that id never be able to speak out loud, even if im not the one performing the piece. i feel like a lot of my choreograph, especially for contemporary, comes from my emotion rather than having like technically hard skills, if that makes sense" 

"no that makes total sense. i love that you have the ability to do it too. it really is awesome"

once im done stretching, i show him the contemporary solo i have choreographed for one of my dancers, and he loves it. 

we decide to have a chill day in the house until i have to go to work. he decides he wants to drive me, so he drops me off and is going to pick me back up in 6 hours when im done with my classes.

once i drop makenna off at the studio, i drive back to her house to talk to bryce

"hey bryce can i talk to you for a sec"

"yeah whats up"

"so i wanted to ask you if it'd be okay if i asked out makenna. i dont want to make anything weird or ruin our friendship and group if i did" i nervously tell him

"finally. no it wouldnt be weird at all, we've all been waiting for it. itd be more than okay. go for it" he tells me

"really? thanks bryce"
