"Who said anything about cold feet when he's got his eyes set on someone else." It was Sky who spoke next.
He had been silently observing things like Xander, but unlike Xan whose eyes roamed everywhere, his eyes were locked on his friend and wherever his eyes went.
That was when he saw how Xander looked at Jade with interest and a certain unknown emotion in his eyes.
There was no doubt or mistake. Xander was falling for her.
"What? Who took his eyes away, to make the almighty Xander forget such beauty?" Jay asked, not believing someone else could beat the girl he spotted.
"Her," Xander replied to his friend and pulled Jay closer to himself than propped his head forward, directing his gaze to where Jade sat. "She took my..."
But rather than saying what he wanted to say, Xander paused leaving Jay and Sky confused.
Immediately the smile on his face dropped and turned into a deep angry frown.
