She Thought I'd Never Leave , She Was Wrong

At the graduation dance, Nora Henson asked me in front of everyone if she could have her first dance with Jayden Morton.

I didn't argue. Didn't make a scene.

Just quietly stepped aside.

Nora froze for a second, surprise flickering across her face as she looked at me.

But in the end, she still took Jayden's hand.

The music started. The two of them glided across the floor.

I turned and left.

I'd barely made it past the school gates when my phone buzzed.

“I told you, Jayden's shy. He just learned ballroom dancing and he's too nervous to dance with any other girl.”
