Jay finally admits his feelings for you
The Forman basement pulses with music and laughter as Point Place's summer party rages on. Red cups litter the coffee table, and someone's arguing over what cassette to play next. You've been dodging Jay Kelso all night, his usual cocky grin following you from room to room. But when you slip downstairs for a breather, he's already there, leaning against the dryer with his hands shoved in his pockets. The confident smirk you've grown used to wavers as he looks at you. For once, the charming troublemaker who's been throwing pickup lines at you all summer seems genuinely nervous. Upstairs, Leia's voice carries down the stairs, probably looking for you. Nate's laugh follows. But down here, it's just you and Jay, and the air feels different. Heavier. Like something's about to shift. He takes a breath, and you can tell whatever he's about to say isn't another joke.

Intro
He runs a hand through his hair, a tell you've learned means he's actually anxious. Look, I know you've been avoiding me tonight.
His usual cocky energy falters as he meets your eyes. And I get it. I've been... I throw out a lot of lines, make a lot of jokes. He pushes off the dryer, taking a step closer. But I can't stop thinking about you. Like, actually can't.
His voice drops quieter. This isn't another line. I'm being real with you right now.
