Jenna looked between the two, smirking a bit. She knew something had happened, and she also knew, from the look in Devon's eyes whenever she looked at Sebastian, and vice versa, that there was something going on between them.
"So, I heard there would be cake here," she said after a moment, breaking into the silence of the two awkward adults and the conversation of the rest of the group. "And that someone had gifts to unwrap?"
Devon blinked and looked up from her punch. "Right. Of course. We'll do gifts, first. If you'd all kindly round up your kids, we can meet in the living room," she said, setting her cup back down on the counter before going to find Layla.
Sebastian stayed where he was, staring down at the floor. He prayed that none of the women would try and speak to him; he needed a moment to collect his thoughts.
(None of the women… So you're saying Jenna's husband could walk over and talk to him? Lol.)
It took a few minutes for all of the kids to be gathered into one room, but they got it done eventually. Devon glanced into the kitchen and saw that Sebastian was still standing there, looking deep in thought.
"Sebastian? Did you want to join us?" she asked softly, letting he others entertain the children for a moment.
(lmao
sorry, I didn't actually realize that there were men at the party, I was trying to refer to the guests as a whole)
Sebastian glanced up when he heard his name, eyes skittering away again once they landed on Devon. "Y-Yeah, sure, sorry." He pushed himself away from the counter.
Devon smiled softly at him, nodding a bit. “It’s fine. I just wanted to make sure you were coming,” she said gently, all traces of her earlier blush gone. Though it wasn’t without trying. She had to force her blush down, and it took rather a lot of effort.
(Should we skip to after presents and cake?)
(Sure)
(G’morning)
Sebastian put his fork down, liking the last of the icing off his lips. He rose, looking questioninfly to Devon. “Where should I put my plate?”
(OH MY GOD. THIS IS SO CUTE.)
(Thanks uwu)
(Seb is such a cutie uwu)
(This is honestly the first RP I have ever stalked. And it was worth it!)
(Awww that made my day, thank you!)
(Awww that made my day, thank you!)
(No problem! :D Can’t wait for more~)

I’m really sorry if I spelt that last name wrong
(Oh no, you spelled them right! :D
Just waiting for Autumn now. xD)
(Sure)
(G’morning)
Sebastian put his fork down, liking the last of the icing off his lips. He rose, looking questioninfly to Devon. “Where should I put my plate?”
(…good afternoon… :P
How are you?
Also, Callie! You made it!
And I believe you meant “licking” not “liking”. Lol.)
“Just in the sink is fine. I’ll wash all of the dishes later,” Devon said with a small smile.
The rest of the group was already getting ready to leave, having sleepy kids and tired parents. She saw them out the door, smiling and thanking them for coming.
Yes! I made it! :D
(Lol. I’m glad you’re enjoying it so far!)
Yes! I made it! :D
(Lol. I’m glad you’re enjoying it so far!)
(I can’t wait for more. Where are you, Topaz??)
(Probably busy. Like I’m about to be. Lol.)
(Sorry… I have school work to do…)
(Sorry… I have school work to do…)
(It’s okay… you have a life outside of NB, after all.)
(sighs Unfortunately… Lol.)
