WISE FRIEND

HOW ABOUT IT?

(Note: The photo contains the two main character, we all know what Chase looks like.)

Chase was laying on his bed thinking about the events that took place at Dunkin' and he could not get Jackson out of his head. Chase smiled when he heard the boys downstairs being crazy while making the tiktok videos, but in all honestly Chase wasn't feeling the vibe for it now. He just wanted to lay on his bed and keep hating himself for everything he did wrong. Smiling seemed to be to difficult, to be honest, Chase thought that he might have forgotten how to smile. Chase desperately needed to talk to someone about his feelings, he did trust the Hype House, but he wanted a second opinion that would be outside of this group of friends and the fact that they still have direct contact with Sway House kind of makes an idea pop up that maybe everything being said doesn't stay confidential. After still thinking about Jackson, Chase started making a list of everything that might go wrong and a list of everything that can go right, sadly the list of things to go wrong seemed much longer. Chase groaned and got off his bed to go down stairs and maybe go somewhere we he could try and clear his mind.

Just as Chase got to the living room Nick called him over for a short video and as much as Chase did not want to, he figured the fact that Nick was always there for him. What friend would he be if he didn't help another. Chase placed a fake smile on his face and helped Nick with the video. After that Chase told Nick that he is going out for some coffee or something and will be back in a bit. After leaving the house and getting into the car, Chase decided to go to Dunkin' and just to sit there and think. Chase got to the building and walked in, but what he saw next was a real surprise. Chase looked straight at Jackson, but Jackson was looking at his laptop, biting down on his bottom lip while glancing over to the paperwork and back to his laptop trying to make sense of whatever he was doing. Chase noticed that Jackson could be a businessman by his way he dressed and by the looks of it Jackson knew how to colour coordinate because he had a white button up shirt with a silver tie, grey formal pants with black shoes and to finish to look he had a grey undercoat on.

Chase stood there for awhile thinking to himself should he go over to Jackson or not and what idea would it give Jackson if some random guy just went up to him and said hello. After standing there a few minutes, Chase decided to go for it and see what happens.

Conversation between Chase and Jackson

Chase: Uhm...hey, how are you?

Jackson: (Looks up from his laptop and shoots up from his chair) Hey! Uhm... hello, I'm good, how about you?

Chase: (Giggles a bit) I've been better...

Jackson: Sorry, I just can't believe you are talking to me...

Chase: What do you mean?

Jackson: Well...believe it or not, but I'm kind of a fan...

Chase: (Chase had an expression of shock in his face) Really?! Why if I may ask?

Jackson: I don not know, you just stand out above the rest of the two houses and please don't ask me why that is because I really don't know.

Chase: But if you don't know then how are you a fan?

Jackson: Wow, are you always so full of questions?

Chase: Sorry, I don't know why I am asking so many.

Jackson: (Smiles at Chase) It is fine. Would you like to sit down?

Chase: (Smiles back at Jackson) Yes! I would like that.

Both of the boys sits down and Jackson waves at the waiter to get her attention, the waiter notice Jackson's hand and smiles at him while walking to the table.
