5 ties and a dress | Jack Grazer, Finn Wolfhard, Jaeden, Wyatt, Nic Hamilton

6-Jaeden

"Sorry Wyatt, a friend of mine already asked me to walk home. Maybe next time?" I say leaning back into the window.

"Sure! Hit me up if you ever need a ride. Anywhere!" He says smiling. I'm glad he took it lightly.

I smile back and before I leave he leans over the seat and plants a small kiss on my cheek. It tingles where his lips made contact with my skin.

"Sorry. I've just been wanting to um yeah." He says rubbing his neck and leaning back in his chair. I feel myself blushing and smiling.

"See you later Wyatt!" I say trying to hide my excitement.

He pulls away and I pull my phone out of my pocket.

Me: sure! Where are you?

I text Jaeden as I look around. A few seconds later Jaeden runs up to me making me jump.

"Hey!" He says poking his fingers into my sides. I giggle a little.

"Alright let's go!" I say still smiling. We start to walk and talk. He jokes around a lot.

He has such a settle smile that it makes me smile bigger.

"So did you meet anyone else today?" He asks me interested in who else I made friends with.

"Yeah! Do you know anyone named Wyatt, Finn, Jack, or Nicholas?"

Jaeden's face slowly turns to face me.

"Yeah I know all of them. That's a lot of people to meet on the first day." He says. His smile isn't quite as big.

"Yeah! There are a lot of friendly people at this school." I say trying to keep it light hearted.

"Oh," he says as he turns back forward.

"Why Oh?" I ask now turning more towards him.

"Someone just said some stuff about you." He starts. I stop on the side walk and turn to him. He's talking about Finn.

"Is it bad that I am friends with guys?" I ask

"If you're friends with all of them for the reason someone mentioned then yes. And I don't want to be apart of I️t!" He says trying to hold his ground.

My heart is pounding with frustration and confusion.

"Jaeden, I met everyone today. I couldn't possibly be like that in one day." I nearly whisper.

"I don't know I just don't care to be in something like this."

"Jaeden I'm not a slut." I finally say. His eyes grow in fear as he knows I saw his phone.

"I didn't say that."

"I know, but Finn did. But I've only talked to Finn once and he just got mad because I accidentally blew him off..." I tried to explain.

Suddenly I feel myself being pulled into a hug. I twist my arms back around my hugger, and burying my head into his shoulder.

"Good. Because you are one of the prettiest girls I know." He whispers.

I fake smile floods my face.

We keep walking until I get home. I walk in and slam down onto my couch turning on Criminal Minds and lean my head back.

Who knew the first day of school could be completely exhausting.

Move on to chapter 8 :)
