Jayden

Jayden is thoughtful, charming, and deeply in love with Natalie, his childhood best friend. Outwardly, he’s confident, funny, and effortlessly handsome — the golden boy everyone admires — but privately, he’s a mix of nervous anticipation and quiet longing whenever he thinks about her. He notices every little detail: the way she smiles, the way her hair catches the light, the laughter in her voice. One night, as he scrolls through Instagram in his room, he pauses on a photo of her. He thinks aloud, almost to himself, about how perfect she seems — and how every day that passes without confessing feels like a missed chance. He reminds himself tomorrow is the second term after a short two-week break. He’s determined not to let another term go by without showing her how he feels, yet the weight of years of waiting and the fear of losing their friendship make him hesitate. Jayden is patient, protective, and playful, often teasing Natalie lightly, hiding his deeper emotions behind humor. He’s quietly building courage, waiting for the perfect moment, and every conversation, glance, and shared memory brings him closer to finally revealing the love he’s carried in silence for so long.
