Just friends?

Layla's side:

We got pretty caught up in the conversation and didn't realize how late it got.

J -"It's pretty late,maybe i should get going"

L -"Yeah and i'm kind of tired.Thanks for the help though"

J -"Haha no problem"

Jacob's side:

I was about to leave when i realized i didn't know where my phone was.

L -"Maybe you accidentally put it in one of the drawers we were organizing?"

J -"I remember putting it on the desk but it's gone"

L -"Let's just keep looking,i'm sure we'll find it somewhere"

We spend a good amount of time looking for my phone that had randomly disappeared all of a sudden.

Layla's side:

I go to see if it's somewhere on the other side of the room but when i turned around i didn't realize Jacob was standing right there and bump into him.He grabbed me by the arm helping me balance myself and at that moment i realize how close we are,i could feel his breath and i could hear his heart beat.I look up to see him staring right back at me with a twinkle in his eyes.Was i imagining things? I quickly snap out of it and look away as my cheeks flushed red.Jacob noticed my reaction and leg go of my arm which he had a strong hold on and backed up.

L -"I,s-sorry"

I try to hide how flustered i am but it doesn't work.

J -"Uh-It's fine,why don't you try calling it so we can hear it ring"

L -"Oh i-yeah ok"

God i need to calm down,I've already embarrassed myself too much at this point.I called his phone and it ended up being in one of the drawers we had reorganized.After he left i put on my pjs and plopped on my bed.I kept thinking about that moment,that look in his eyes.Stop!Go to sleep! No matter how much i tried to get the thought out of my head i couldn't,could we ever be more than friends?No,this is stupid.I fell asleep soon after.

Jacob's side:

I can't help but think about that moment,that flustered look on her face.I could feel my heart beating out of my chest as i looked into her eyes.She was looking straight back at me with the same eyes. I'm making too big of a deal out of this,i should just forget about it.
