Comments like these continued to roll in on social media from your last public stage with the AOMG artists. Scrolling through your phone, you couldn’t help but smile seeing all of the scenarios and thoughts that different people had on the topic. Tapping on the picture that they were all commenting on, you zoomed in to find you and Jay. With Jay standing behind you, his eyes lovingly lingering on you while you stood in front of him completely oblivious to the secret admirer. Saving the picture to your phone, curling a smile onto your lips, a text message showed up on the top notification bar of your phone.

Are you doing anything later? - Jay

Your lips pulled back further to show your teeth hidden behind your pink lips. Tapping your calendar app on your phone, you found the date and looked through all of the events and tasks that you had completed for the day. Upon further investigation of your schedule you discovered the rare event that you had the evening completely free.

Nope! It’s a miracle! Replying to Jay, you went back to read a few more comments before another text rolled in.

Gray, Simon and I are heading out to a club, would you like to tag along? - Jay

That would be great!

Can I come and get you in a half an hour?- Jay

That’d be perfect!!!

Rising from your spot on the couch, you slipped your phone into your back pocket while you made your way to your bedroom to change.

“So… what did she say?!” Gray questioned, seeing a smile set on Jay’s face

“Looks like it isn’t just us tonight” Jay lifted his eyes from his phone to see Gray and Simon both give a nod of approval.

“You should probably get ready, Romeo” Simon nudged Jay’s shoulder while Jay’s grew with an increasing tint of red.

“Yeah we are leaving in thirty minutes” Gray added as Jay shook his head, trying to shake the smile that tried to spread onto his lips.

“Alright, just don’t leave without me” Jay rose from the couch, slipping his phone into his right front pocket of his jeans while he climbed over the long limbs of his friends.

“Well we might, if you don’t hurry” Gray called after Jay, his eyes following Jay to his room before the door blocked off all vision he had of Jay.

Thumbing through the clothes in his closet, he settled on a simple yet classy look. Lifting his eyes from the grey toes of his socks, blue jeans fit his legs perfectly while the bottom hem of his white t shirt brushed over the top of his pockets. A grey plaid shirt infused with just the right amount of blue covered most of the white t shirt underneath. Taking in a deep breath, he lifted his hand and ran his fingers through his hair as he let his eyes wander over his outfit.

“Well this is as good as it gets” He sighed in hope that it would be enough to impress you.

“Yo, are you coming?” Simon knocked on Jay’s door.

“Yeah, I’ll be right out” Jay glaced at his reflection once more. Slipping his feet into a pair of black skater shoes, he trotted out of his room trying to catch up with the other two heading out of the front door.

Grabbing the keys to his car, he made sure his wallet was in his back pocket before closing the front door behind him. Jogging out to his car, he watched his two roommates roll out of the parking lot. Waving to the two of them, he slipped behind the wheel and started his car to come and pick you up.

Pacing in front of the door, your heels clicked against the hardwood while your arms folded across your stomach. Thoughts raced through your mind one by one, before they eventually morphed into one.

A knock on the front door caused all of your wandering thoughts to vanish instantly. Snapping your head in the direction of the door, you slowly made your way over to the door. Peeking through the peephole, you saw Jay standing outside as his hands rubbed against the side of his jeans in a nervous manner. Flipping the locks on your door, you pulled open the door with ease as you greeted Jay with a smile.

Lifting his eyes from the tops of his shoes, he saw the cute black heels matching a beautiful black dress that hugged all of your curves with ease. A worn jean jacket covered your exposed arms as black straps from your dress crossed in front of your neck in a halter neck like fashion. Your hair was lightly curled and pulled back slightly.

“Hi Jay” You cooed sweetly taking in the handsome figure in front of you.

“Hi ______, it’s so nice to see you” Jay’s eyes met with yours as you couldn’t help but feel your heart leap slightly with the eye contact.

“So nice to see you as well, it really has been too long” You smiled as he chuckled nodding in agreement.

“You saw me the other day” Jay stepped back as you exited your apartment and closed the door behind you.

“Still, that is far too long. Besides, do you remember the last time when we actually went out and did something fun together?” You questioned glancing over at him as he walked beside you.

“Maybe like a month or two ago?” Jay thought back, trying to remember the last time the two of you hung out outside of work. “It has been far too long.”

“It has been, but thank you for inviting me tonight” You stepped out of the lobby into the cool air of the night while Jay held open the door then walked beside you once more.

“Of course, I am just glad that the other two allowed it” Jay chuckled as he opened the passenger door for you.

“Do you need permission from your friends to actually see me?” You , knowing Simon and Gray extremely well.

“Apparently I do” Jay winked at you as you eased yourself into his passenger seat.

“You know you can grow up” You with a smile, peering up at him.

“I just don’t want to leave Neverland, just yet” Closing the door, Jay’s words sang into the quiet cab before he slipped behind the wheel and turned the key hearing the sweet purr of the engine while his guages spun up before he was ready to drive.

“So does that make me Wendy?” You questioned, “You know, if you are Peter Pan… I kind of figured you as one of those Lost Boys.”

“Well If I am one of those Lost Boys then I have found my own Wendy, much prettier than the original” Jay glanced over at you showing you one of his classy smiles before pulling out of your parking lot and heading towards the city club.

Catching up with one another, the two of you picked up where the two of you had left off, not skipping a beat. With smiles, laughter and two hearts pounding happily with one another, Jay pulled into an empty parking spot as he twisted back his key, silencing his engine. Glancing over at you, you unbuckled yourself before turning your head to see Jay gazing at you.

“You know if you stare at something too long, you’ll break it” You teased, your eyes not leaving his once you caught his gaze.

“If this beautiful being breaks, I’ll just hug her tightly until she is put back together” Jay whispered as he allowed his eyes linger on yours for a moment longer before someone knocked on his window.

“You two coming or just going to waste time?” Gray teased seeing the two of you gazing endlessly into one another’s eyes.

“We’re coming” Jay called back as he opened his door to the two guys waiting outside.

“Didn’t want you two to get too comfortable with one another” Simon winked at Jay before he trotted around to the other side and opened your door for you.

“Thank you for the interruption” You teased Simon and Gray before rounding the car and standing next to Jay.

“Anytime! Now let’s go inside, they have been playing some great songs!” Gray wrapped his hand around your arm as he pulled you along.

“I’m coming” You trotted up next to him in your heels.

Entering into the dimly lit club, bright lights moved over the slightly smoky atmosphere while excitement began to pulse with the beat of the music.

“We should go to the bar first for a few drinks!” Gray suggested over the deafening music.

Simon nodded in agreement before Gray stepped down three stairs to the lowered floor. Slipping through the dense crowd, Simon followed Gray before you and Jay. Reaching the bar’s edge, Simon found a gap between the bystanders against the bar for the four of you. Gray pulled out a bar stool and sat with a content sigh while Simon followed soon after. Leaning up against the bullnose counter, Jay stood behind you as he leaned on his arm on the waterproof lacquered bar top.

“What can I get for you this evening?” A male bartender inquired as his hand worked a white towel around a small glass cradled in his other hand.

“Can I get a fireball” Gray ordered with a lift of his finger

“A Jagerbomb for me” Simon ordered his

“________, please” You rattled off your favorite alcoholic drink without a second thought

“Soju for me please” Jay was the last to order before the bartender turned away to fulfill the orders.

Gray spun on his bar stool for a moment before turning his gaze towards the dancing crowd and moving to the beat of the live DJ performing on the slightly raised stage that was against the back wall of the bar..

“Hey remember that time that you two got dared to dance on that table top at the company party?” Simon brought up the old memory from when they were trainees.

“We were dancing really well… but then someone just had to walk in and catch Jay’s eyes” Gray teased knowing very well that you were new to the company and just happened to walk past the table that Jay and Gray were dancing on.

“What can I say, I’m attracted to exotics” You tipped your head towards them earning an approved hum from each of the men around you.

“Here you are” The bartender arrived with the drinks and placed the correct drinks in front of you.

Once all of the drinks were placed in front of you, Gray and Simon lifted up their small shot glasses to the air. Lifting yours up with theirs, Jay joined knowing it was customary for those two to propose a toast before the night of fun commenced.

“To friendship, to another week of work, to surviving the past week” Simon offered up the toast this time as everyone cheered before clinking their glasses together.

Simon and Gray knocked down their shot in one gulp while you sipped yours and Jay took a small sip of his soju. Simon and Gray asked for a refill on their drinks as the conversations began to start up between the boys.

“Hey, we should go play darts, just like the old days” Simon suggested as Gray added his nod to try and convince Jay to do so.

Catching Jay’s head peer over his shoulder, catching a glimpse of your eyes, you lightly nodded letting him know that he should have some fun with the others. Allowing his gaze to linger on your beautiful, you could easily read the predicament lining his worried eyes. Nodding once more, you reassured him that you would be fine at the bar by yourself.

“I’m sure I’ll beat you both again” Jay pushed himself off of the bar leaving his half emptied glass by yours.

“What are the wagers?” Gray questioned as the rest of their conversation began to drown in the change of songs that played overhead while they distanced themselves from you with every step they took away from you.

Watching them from afar, you eased yourself down on a bar stool. Lifting your feet so that they rested on the pegs between the legs of the stool, you pressed your lips against the smooth glass while the alcoholic liquid lined your lips. Sipping small amounts of your drink, you began to nod your head, feeling the deep bass of the songs move you from within. Watching the wandering lights happily from afar, a sea of people stood on the dance floor, jumping up and down and moving and morphing together as if they all were one.
