“Good. We had fun.”

“What’d you guys end up doing? I heard you came back late.”

I shrug. “We went to a club.”

“Sounds fucking boring. We went to a party at Killian’s. He has such good whiskey. Need to hang out with that guy more often.” Max says.

“Wasn’t boring for Jaclyn,” Natalia says and I look at her as she smirks my way. “She got a stripper’s number.”

“What?” Chris and Hayden say at the same time.

Chris looks at Natalia with a confused look and then Hayden is glaring at me with his jaw still clenched.

“Oh, you pulled a stripper?” Kayden says, looking between Hayden and I with a stupid smile on his face.

“Is he hot?” Max asks.

“Wait, you guys went to a strip club?” Chris asks, still looking at Natalia.

She got herself in trouble.

That’s what she gets.

“Yes, and we didn’t even touch them, just drank, and danced. Calm down,” Natalia says while running her hand down Chris’s chest.

“Wait, you got a stripper's number?” Chris says, looking at me now.

My cheeks turn red and I can’t help but smile shyly. “Yea.”

“Are you going to call him?” Max asks, now looking at Hayden and back at me.

God, what are they all doing?

I shrug. “I don’t know. He seemed nice.”

“Nice,” Hayden mutters while shaking his head lightly.

“What does he look like?”

“He’s good looking. Brown hair, brown eyes, and tall.”

“Is he fit?” Max asks.

Nicole rolls her eyes. “Of course he’sfit. He’s a damn stripper, Max,” she says before talking to her friends again.

I forgot she was even here for a second.

“Damn, okay Jaclyn.” Kayden smirks.

“What’s his name?” Martins asks.

“Ethan. He wrote it down for me.”

“Oh my god! He gave you a note? So romantic!” Max says, looking at Hayden before looking back at me again. “What did it say?”

I shake my head lightly. “I’m not going to talk to you guys about this.” I try not to smile, from how embarrassing this is.

A chair scrapes against the floor making everyone at the table startle. I look up and see Hayden walk out of the room and towards the entrance.
