"So, um, I'd take you home but you brought your car correct?"

"I did, but hey, I hope we can do this some other time."

"Of course, thanks for saving me from a boring night at home."

He goes in for a hug, so I meet him halfway and hug him as well. He was warm and smelt like vanilla.

"Well, you saved myself from the same thing so."

"Good night Y/n, I'll see you on Monday."

"Yes! Good night, Sebastian."

I walk into my car and he watches me pull away, such a gentleman, making sure I safely got into my car.

I got home to my apartment complex, and hop on the stairs.

Colin was at the top of them, eyeing my outfit.

I clear my throat, because he always looks at me now like he's seen me naked, which he has.

"Hey, early night?" I ask trying to lighten the mood the way he's staring at me, reach the top of the flight of stairs.

I meet him at the top in which he responds, "Yeah, last show of the night was cancelled."

"Bummer," I pout. "At least you played tonight right?" I walk past him, searching for my keys deep in my bag.

"Where were you?" He finally chokes out not answering my question.

I turn to face him, furrowing my brows, "With a friend."

"With a friend?" He huffs quietly, "dressed this hot?"

Oh no. Please tell me that Colin Shea isn't playing the jealous boyfriend card right now. I already have a 'jealous ex' whom I've never dated.

I shake my head at him, in disappointment. Then I turn to open the door to my place.

"Please, tell me you weren't with that rich douchebag!" He pleads, following me into my place.

"Went out for a couple drinks with a teacher who works at the school, what's the big deal?" I shrug my shoulders, briefly.

"The big deal is, one of my buddies saw you at that bar, with that entitled asshole! You were having drinks with him, Y/n!"

Colin is obviously jealous and very upset.

I place my purse and my keys on my kitchen island, toeing off my heels.

Also, - side note - he speaks to his friends about me! That alone made my panties wet.

I make my way towards him, at first just staring at the way his face is flushed with jealousy.

Then I run my hands up his chest and swing them both around his neck.

"I went out for a couple drinks with a teacher friend." I remind him, speaking softly.

"But you still sat with that douchebag..." he mumbles, almost whining.

"I didn't even realize he was next to me, until I heard him speak. We spoke a little bit, then he reminded me how much of an asshole he can be."

One of my hands reached to gently cradle his handsome face. As he looked down at me, reaching for my hips to pull me closer.

I hear him make a sigh of relief, as I hold him by his waist.

"I-I just didn't like the way he was looking at you when he came here the other day." He confessed.
