It's March 10th, 2018. Jayden gets a letter in the mail and immediately calls Isaiah. "I got the letter."
"Have you opened it?" Isaiah responds, anxious.
"Nope. I'm coming to your house," Jayden answers.
"Okay," Isaiah replies. He's not surprised that Jayden doesn't want to do it at his house. His parents are out with Isaiah's mom, talking. They get along much better without Matthew there.
"See you soon! Love you! Bye!" Jayden says.
Isaiah says back, "See you! Love you!"
They hang up. Isaiah cleans himself off, slightly. The house is clean, so he doesn't worry about that.
.................................................................................................................................................................
Jayden knocks on the door, urgently. Joanna answers the door. "Sup Jayden?"
"College letter! That's what's up," Jayden responds.
Joanna grins, "He's in his room," She comments as she opens the door, wider. Jayden runs past her, giving her a thumbs up. She replies with a smile and a thumbs up. He runs into Isaiah's room. Isaiah is sitting up, leaning against his pillows on his bed, looking at his phone. Jayden jumps onto his bed, and Isaiah sets his phone down and sits up, looking at Jayden, encouragingly.
"I'm nervous," Jayden finally says.
Isaiah frowns, slightly. "That's okay. So was I when I opened my letter."
Jayden sighs, "But you're actually smart!"
"Hey! Don't doubt yourself! You're really smart!" Isaiah exclaims.
Jayden rolls his eyes, "You're only saying that."
Isaiah crosses his arms and lays against his pillows. "Okay, fine. I was going to give you a kiss after you opened the letter. But, I guess if you really don't want to open it..."
Jayden's eyes widen and he tears the letter open. Isaiah giggles and smiles. He looks at Isaiah, expectantly. Isaiah gives him a kiss, which gives him the courage to read the letter.
He reads through the letter. The letter that'll decide his fate, the letter that terrifies him. Isaiah watches, biting his lip nervously.
"I got in!" Jayden yells. Isaiah smiles and hugs him. "I can't believe it! I got in!" He yells again, absolutely ecstatic.
They calm down after a couple of minutes. "Since I got in..." Jayden starts, hinting at a kiss. Isaiah smiles and kisses him.
"I'm so proud of you!" Isaiah hugs him, tightly. Him saying that makes Jayden even more happy. He wants Isaiah to be proud of him and what he'll accomplish. "Let's go out to lunch to celebrate! My treat!"
Jayden smiles as he waits in the living room for Isaiah to change. Sure, he's happy about college, but Isaiah being so proud of him, that, brings him even more happiness.
Joanna walks over, eyeing him. "Hello Jayden."
He looks at her, confused. He didn't say or do anything. "Hey..?"
"Listen. You and my brother have been dating for some time, now. So, I suppose we should discuss boundaries."
Jayden stifles a laugh. Joanna may seem weak, but she's feisty. "Okay."
Joanna starts, "Let's start with the usual, you hurt my brother, I kill you. Got it?"
"I would never try to hurt him," Jayden says, honestly.
