Jasper's voice was like waiting for a rain storm during a drought. You got excited when the clouds got grey hoping the skies would open and unleash the quench to your thirst. Even a cool breeze was a tease. And every time Jasper opened his mouth it...

" What the fuck were you thinking." -Kinsley Pines

The next 2 weeks went by, Christmas came and I had spent it in California with Nani and than came New Years, Gurney and The Dragons had show and the bar had hosted a after party. We had grown closer after I had told them the truth, but a few times I would catch them looking at me with sad puppy dog eyes. I could tell they looked at me differently because things weren't the same after that.
We weren't faking friendship.
We were friends.
Nani, Zane, Bee who has eventually been informed after her return, Lucas, and always Gurney.
Everything seem to be better, it seem to be real.
The only thing I was missing, the only person I was missing was Jasper. We had exchanged text a few FaceTime calls but nothing compares to real life.
To his voice.
To him.
I wanted what happen in Vegas to be forgotten, well all the bad parts at least. I actually believed that could happen. As I laid on the hood of Lucas's cherry red Ferrari in the student parking lot. A smile was across my face as we all laughed finding some humor in our first day of our second semester of senior year. We thought of all the great things, Prom Season, Graduation, College applications.
" You're getting way to comfortable KP, only you can lay on half a million dollar car like it's a sofa bed." Lucas commented as he closed his driver seat door.
" Just imagine May 3rd, I'm decked out in my Gianni Versace gown legs banging with a matching pair of 6 inch heels, face beat and 2 pair of 12 tear shaped Carrot ear rings dangling." Excitement fills my eyes as a theatrically lay against his car. Thought Bee, and Nani's eyes held the same joy. The boys... not so much.
"This is prom not the Met Gala KP. Don't you think that's a bit much." Lucas reminded
I shrug. " And this is just High school, yet every morning you ride in a half a million dollar Ferrari instead the bus. Isn't that a bit much?" I ask with a smirk.
" Touché." He admits.
" Show a little enthusiasm guys! Prom is a night to remember." Nani chimes." Zane, you could take the the guys to your Dad's tailor."
" The guys?" He asked " Isn't it just me and Lucas. "
" Jasper." She said.
" What makes you guys think he's even into that stuff?" Lucas asked
