đ Chapter: "Walk of Shame (According to Them)"
đż Jay's POV (First Person)
Morning.
I hate mornings.
---
Especially this one.
---
My eyes open slowly, and for a second⊠I forget where I am.
Then I feel it.
Warmth.
---
I freeze.
---
Oh.
---
Right.
---
I turn my head slightlyâ
And there he is.
Keifer.
---
Sleeping like nothing happened.
Like he didn't completely ruin my ability to think properly last night.
---
I stare at him for a second.
"âŠunbelievable," I mutter under my breath.
---
As if he senses it, his arm tightens slightly around me.
Pulling me closer.
---
"Don't start," he murmurs, eyes still closed.
---
I blink.
"You're awake?"
---
"Barely," he says, voice rough with sleep. "But I can feel you judging me."
---
"I am judging you."
---
A small smirk appears on his face.
"Not what you were doing last night."
---
My face heats instantly.
"Keiferâ"
---
He opens one eye, clearly enjoying this.
"Relax."
---
"I hate you."
"Mm. No, you don't."
---
Annoying.
Completely annoying.
We eventually get up.
Which is already awkward enough.
---
But thenâ
I catch my reflection.
---
"âŠyou've got to be kidding me."
---
I turn slightly.
Neck.
Collarbone.
---
"Oh my god."
---
Keifer leans against the wall, watching me.
Too calm.
Way too calm.
---
"You're not even sorry?" I ask.
---
"No."
---
I grab the nearest thingâa pillowâand throw it at him.
"You're impossible!"
---
He catches it easily, laughing under his breath.
"You'll survive."
---
"I have to go outside like this."
---
His eyes flick over me again.
Slow.
Unapologetic.
---
"You look fine."
---
"That is NOT helping."
---
Walking back was a mistake.
A huge mistake.
---
The second we step insideâ
Silence.
---
Oh no.
---
I already know.
---
"OhhhâŠ" Hannah's voice drags out.
---
I close my eyes.
I want to disappear.
---
"Look who finally showed up," Liam adds.
---
"I was literally gone for one night," I say quickly.
---
"Yeah," Noel mutters from the side, "we can tell."
---
My hand flies to my neck.
Worst mistake.
---
Because nowâ
They all notice.
---
"WAITâare thoseâ"
"NO."
"They definitely are."
"JAYâ"
---
"Can you all not?" I snap, trying to walk past them.
---
But of courseâ
Keifer walks in right behind me.
---
And that makes it worse.
So much worse.
---
"OH MY GOD," Celestine says, laughing.
"Keiferâ" Adrian starts, shaking his head.
---
"What?" Keifer asks calmly.
---
"What do you MEAN what?" Liam laughs. "Bro disappeared with her and came back like this."
---
I turn to glare at Keifer.
"This is your fault."
---
He shrugs slightly.
"Not entirely."
---
"KEIFER."
---
Behind usâ
absolute chaos.
---
"Two days, huh?" Hannah teases.
"Man didn't waste time," Liam adds.
---
"I'm leaving," I mutter.
---
But before I canâ
Keifer's hand finds mine.
---
I freeze.
---
He doesn't say anything.
Just holds it.
Like it's the most normal thing in the world.
---
And somehowâ
that makes everything worse.
---
And better.
---
"Alright, enough," Celestine says finally, still smiling. "Let them breathe."
---
"Yeah," Adrian adds, "they clearly need it."
---
"YOU'RE ALL SO ANNOYING," I snap.
---
But I can't stop smiling.
Just a little.
---
Keifer leans slightly closer, his voice low.
"Worth it."
---
I glance at him.
Still annoyed.
Still flustered.
---
"âŠmaybe."
---
And of courseâ
they hear that too.
---
"OH MY GODâ"
---
"JAYâ"
---
"WE HEARD THATâ"
---
I cover my face.
"I hate all of you."
---
But honestly?
I don't.
---
Not right now
