Jayden's POV

Liam and I finished watching a movie a couple of minutes ago. It's currently 7 pm right now and I am in my bedroom working on a drawing of a peony. Seeing Liam drawing and painting every day got me inspired to draw a bit of my own. Liam has been teaching me a few tricks to become a better drawer and I must say, it's definitely working. I wasn't quite sure if I was planning to do this but after today with Grayson, I made up my mind. I realized that Grayson isn't going to take me back. He seems happy with Anna. Heck, he's even making her a handmade bookshelf for god sake. Why bother waiting on some miracle that I know is never going to happen?

I know it's going to be extremely hard moving on from him, and as much I try to get Grayson out of my head it seems like time is taking its sweet time erasing him. He's clearly moved on and so should I. Even though deep inside I still have strong feelings for him, I know there is nothing I can do, unfortunately. I have to suck up my feelings and move on instead of wasting my life doing nothing but crying myself to sleep every night thinking about all the good times I had with him.

I am almost finished drawing this peony because I know they're Liam's favorite types of flowers since he has them all over his house. I've been having confused feelings for him for a while now but when we were watching the movie, he wrapped his arm around my shoulder and pulled me closer to him. All those warm butterflies in my stomach made me feel... like flying. At that exact moment, it was like my eyes finally opened. Liam has been hitting on me since I moved in with him but I've been too stupid and too scared to give in. When he kissed me the other day in the carnival restroom, I was confused about how to feel. My delusion about Grayson blinded me from expressing my true emotions for Liam. Liam has been there to comfort me during my darkest times, and he's been the best person to talk to when I needed someone, he's also such a gentleman, not to mention he's very attractive...

I can't hold back this feeling for him any longer. I haven't felt these types of feelings about someone since Grayson. I drew this peony for him with the words 'I love you' at the bottom; to gift to him. I'm not the type of guy to ask someone out on a date, but love can do crazy things that can lead you to the next big step. Though I am sad to let Grayson go, I also feel pretty excited knowing that the next chapter in my life will be with Liam.

I flinch at the unexpected sound. I turn my head over to where the noise was coming from, and there on the other side of my window was Daxon.

My heart nearly stopped when I saw him crouching with his hand against the window

My heart nearly stopped when I saw him crouching with his hand against the window. Wait... How did he know I lived here? How did he even get up here?! My bedroom is on the second story! I got up from bed and opened the window. "What are you doing here? How do you know I live here?!" I flood him with questions before he could even say hi to me. "Hey, wanna hang? I got something to show you." He says gesturing his hand to follow him. "What? No! You haven't even answered the question." I say. He's insane if he thinks I going to follow him in a time like this. Daxon lets out a groan. "Ugh, that doesn't matter. Just come." He says. Ugh, nothing is going to stop him. I guess it's always good to live a little. "Fine, I'm coming." I give in to whatever he has in store. I've only met him once so I don't even know why I'm crazy enough to go with him. "You... planning on going out like that?" He asks. I look down only to realize that I, in fact, am wearing no pants. "I mean, I don't mind" Daxon smirks. "Whoops, uh let me change."
