Jaden had decided to spend most of his time in the kitchen in an attempt to keep himself calm about the fact that this little party had turned into something that was likely going to screw him over. Besides, with the number of people that had shown up, he needed to make some more cookies. He had originally made a plate of cookies for the small number of people he knew were coming, along with a few plates just for him. Now that there were so many people, he was pretty sure that wouldn't be enough, so he used that as an excuse to hideaway in the kitchen.
He knew that Mao would probably get onto him for hiding so much, and that is why he did come out and try to socialize every so often. He just didn't know what to do. His heart was racing faster than ever, and he was really having to watch his movements more than usual. His body was just not wanting to slow down. He recognized a few people as Wyrd Haven students, but the others, he had no clue. He had already lied to his parents about how many people had come over. If he was found out, who knows what they would do.
He went to the drink table and poured a cup, not realizing he had just gotten one of the spiked drinks. He then closed his eyes and tried to will himself to relax a bit.
