Stopped at the Door

Sound Booth

Jewel's POV


      I decide to walk up stairs after Bible study at the Willis's to see if anyone's in the studio. I step inside the doorway and there are so many people, I start to have a mini panic attack and turn away.So. Many. People. Before I could take one step I here someone "hey, Jewel! There's a seat right here." For a moment I could tell who it was, but right as I turn around I see Jedi, with an empty seat beside him. "Thanks," I faintly say as I sit down.


     He smiles at me, "you okay? You seem really up tight." He says with a look of actual concern on his face. I sigh realizing how obvious it is, "no. Not really, I'm not good in big crowds." I say making eye contact with him the first time. "Oh, I'm sorry" he says giving me a side hug. "Here follow me," he says taking my hand. As we get up Jack looks at me with a very confused look, I give him the same look back. Jedi ends up taking me to the recording booth, he sits down on the floor and gently pulling me down with him.


     We both begin to laugh, "thanks, nobody ever really notices me, let alone go out of their way for me." I say giving a sad smile. "Really? With some one so beautiful?" He says looking at the floor. I smile and feel my cheeks burn up, "Jedi, don't be embarrassed. You're fine." I say as he looks at me. He takes my hand and says, "Jewel, I've talked with you before, but today I feel like we connected. Will you court me?" He says talking faster than usual. "Yes," I say smiling from year to ear. "Reallythankyou." He says merging his words together. I smile and give his hand a squeeze, "oh, I'm the up tight one?" I say making laugh, I can see the stress just drain from his face.
