"Wait, what?" I heard Jackson say as I escaped his bedroo like this and worried that hison but his shirt

And it wasn’t like it had even been ed me in there and wouldn’t listen to a word I’d said Geesh, how uy have had in order to assuirl he saw in his parents’ hallas soot that I was dressed in his shirt and he didn’t reht because he had been sick But come on That was one hell of an assumption to make

I showered as fast as possible and was happy to be back in my own clothes Hopefully his dad was up and ready to take me back to caain after what had just happened I slowly pulled the door open and peeked in the hall, relieved to see that his door was closed Rushing downstairs, I headed for what I assumed was the kitchen based on the noise I could hear froht into what felt like a very war blue eyes I swear to God, I had the worst luck possible with this guy

"Hey," I greeted Jackson as I backed away

"We’ve got to stop running into each other like this," he answered "You in your pajamas at Sasha’s door Me almost ready to pass out at the bar You in ize to you for acting like an ass this "

I sat down at the table, stuet out of this I was a nervous eater, so I filled lances at Jackson

"You don’t have to look so thrilled at the idea of s and toast on his own plate
