••••••••••••••••

jaeden was irritated.

he met up with the others when school ended then headed to his house everyday, it was like a routine for them. but it was different today.

they sat on the floor in the living room; talking, joking, sometimes gossiping. the usual. all jaeden could focus on is how wyatt stuck to sophia like glue, laughing or agreeing to everything she said. jaeden hadn't even realized wyatt was talking to him until he waved his hand in front of his face.

"i'm sorry, i wasn't paying attention," jaeden said, flatly. "for a second there i forgot you knew i existed, you're always too busy drooling over sophia."

it was kind of selfish of for him to feel anger and jealousy towards sophia because he knew sophia only thought of them as best friends and nothing more, but the feeling wouldn't go away and he was still pissed.

wyatt was taken aback by jaedens words. "what?"

"just forget it.."

jaeden mumbled, standing from where he was sitting and stomped into the kitchen where he could be alone.

"is he okay?" finn whispered to chosen, earning only a shrug in response.

jaeden wasn't alone for long. he felt a presence next to him, he looked to see it was wyatt, then rested his gaze back to the dining table.

"jae?"

"don't call me that."

"are you okay?" wyatt asked, sitting next to him. jaeden didn't answer.

"well, i can't help if you don't talk to me," wyatt said, causing jaeden to scoff. "whatever it is just tell me, i'm here to listen. that's what friends are for."

"do you really want to know?" jaeden questioned, looking over at wyatt.

"yeah, duh."

"i like you, okay? i've liked you for so long now, but lately you've been acting like i'm completely invisible. i don't want to be your friend, or best friend... i want to be more."
