It's prom, and my heart is pounding in my chest so hard I can barely breathe. I look at myself in my mirror. "Lalisa.. do you need-" I turn to my mother and she has her hand over her mouth. "My goodness.. you look gorgeous." Her eyes water. "Phichit! Come and look at your daughter!" My mother calls to my father, I hear my father run down the hall. I also hear him nearly trip and fall, which makes me chuckle. He sets his hand on the door frame of my room, trying to catch his breath. He gets a good look at me and smiles wide, he had trimmed and dyed his hair for today. He said it's a special day and needed to look nice when he took pictures with me.

"Baby, I know your birthday and graduation isn't for another week or two.. but I wanted to give this to you so you can capture every moment of tonight." My father walks in with something behind his back. I wait patiently for him to come up to me. "Can I get a hint?" I ask him, he chuckles and pinches my cheek. "Nah! Don't do that! You'll mess up her makeup!" My mother tells him. I just continue to smile at him. "Here, from your mother and I." He then brings his hidden hand in front of me, I gasp and take the object from his hand gently. "A Polaroid!?" I exclaim. "I know you've been wanting one." He smiles.

"Pa! Thank you so much! I love it!" I give him a hug, "Your mother picked out the color, she knew you'd like it." The white Polaroid is the one I always wanted, and now I have one! "Thank you ma!" I walk over to her and give her a hug too. "Take lots of pictures with your friends and that cute boyfriend of yours. I'm so excited to see what he looks like." She says. "Ma, don't get all whipped on my boyfriend." I tease her. "Oh no, I just think he's the cutest little thing ever." She says. I chuckle. "Ma, he's taller than you." She smiles, "I know."

We walk over to the living room and I sit on the couch ripping open the packaging for the camera. "Here, we got you the three hundred pack of film." I gasp as I look up at them, "That's so much." I tell them, they just smile. "We want you to have as much as you need. Just don't go too crazy." My mother tells me. I open the pack and take one out, putting it in my camera. I instantly stand back up and face it towards me then I direct my body to be in front of my parents so they're in the photo as well. "Smile!" I cheer and they both put their chins on my shoulders.

I take the picture and it pops out, I stare at it as the picture slowly comes into view. Oh! It's so cute! "I love it! Aaaawe." My mother says. "Me too! I'm so happy it's the first picture I took with my camera." I say. My parents look very pleased. "So what are the driving arrangements?" My father asks. "I believe that Jungkook's mother is dropping us off, they're going to come for me." I tell them. "Is the dance at your school?" I chuckle, "Ma, Pa. I told you that the dance is at a hall." They smile sweetly, "Just wanted to refresh our minds." I smile back. "How are you feeling? Excited?" I nod quickly. "I'm so excited to see what Jungkook is going to wear, he wanted me to wait until today to see it.", "I bet he'll look handsome like always." My mother says.

She seems to like to comment on how handsome Jungkook is, well.. I can argue with her there. He is really cute. I feel my phone buz and I look down at it.

Jungkookie-
We'll be there in a bit, my mother won't stop taking pictures of me. Lol.
-

I smile at his text and reply with "It's okay."  "Oooooooh, honey.. look at the way she smiles when he texts her." My mother says. I touch my face. "Maaaaa, stop." I blush. "Can we please take a pic of you and pa? He really really wants to take a picture with you." I stand up and nod. I leave my phone and the camera on the couch as I walk over to my father so that we can take a picture. "My mouse, you are so beautiful today." He whispers in my ear. I smile and hug him really tight. "So so cute!" My mother exclaims as she takes pictures of us then one with my Polaroid. "Okay, it's your turn ma." I tell her and she runs over to me and shoves the phone at my father making me laugh.

We take some really cute pictures until I hear the front door. I look at my mother with a surprised expression. "He's here!!!" She yells. "He's here! He's here!" I can't stop laughing at how excited my mother is. She opens the door and it's like my little heart is about to fly right into his hand. He looks at my mother and smiles, my mother yanks him into the house making me chuckle before I go back to staring at him. He greets her and his mother walks in after him. He then turns and we lock eyes, his face softens and I smile wide. He looks down at the corsage in the little box then back up at me as he finally approaches me.

My gosh, my heart... my little heart, Jungkook has it. When he makes it up to me I hear the mothers screeching and I think my father has my Polaroid, so he's taking pictures of us. "Wow." Is the first thing that leaves his mouth when he makes it up to me. I blush real hard and look down at my hands, shyly.

**

"Okay! Now look over here!" She says. "Eomma, we've taken like.. thousands of pictures." I tell her. "Memories Kookie, memories!" She says. I smile just for her and she takes several more. "Oh! How handsome! My boy, how handsome!" I walk up to her, "Take a picture with me Eomma, memories." I tell her. "Oh! Yes!" My mother had put on some makeup and curled her hair, most dolled up I've seen her in years. We take several selfies and I get a text from Jimin that they're here for me. "Eomma, Jimin is here." I tell her. "Oy!! I need to take more pictures of you guys too! Don't forget my sweet girls corsage, it's in the fridge."

I run over to the fridge and my mother is already opening the door, greeting Jimin with lots of compliments and really loud screeches. I find myself laughing as I leave the kitchen and head to the door. "Wow Kook, you look good." I hear Jimin. His suit is very nice, a little like mine but not quite. "Thanks, you too. Is Chae in the car?" I ask him. "Yeah, my mother is taking pictures of her in the mini limo." I gasp and walk out of the door, "We're going in that!?" I ask him. "Yeah, my father got the hook ups. He knows a guy, who knows a guy, who knows a guys brother, who owns limos. He got it on the cheaps.. my father didn't want us to go to prom in just our parents cars. He knows other people are going in party buses or limos." He tells me.

"Oh wow!" I run up to the car and it's so cool, Lalisa is going to flip when she sees this. It's a white Chrysler Stretch model limo. "This isn't a mini limo, this is a regular one dude." I laugh as I look at him. "Soooorry, my father doesn't know what he's talking about then.", "Pictures!!" My mother yells nearly scaring me to death. "Okay Eomma, my gosh." I say under my breath. Now Jimin's mother is standing next to mine and they're greeting each other and Chae is standing next to them. She looks like a princess, "You look really beautiful Chae." I say to her. She smiles, "Thanks Kookie, I already know Lalisa is going to die when she sees you." I blush.

"Okay! Okay! Pictures!" Jimin's mother exclaims. Jimin and I take some pictures in front of the limo, then Chae and I, then all of us together. "Minsun, you can come with me in my car, the kids can go in the limo so then I can follow them and when they have to leave I'll give you a ride home." Jimin's mother tells my mother. "Okay, is it okay if I go in the limo to take pictures of them?" She ask, "OH! Yes! Then send them to me." I laugh at the mothers conversation. "Okay! Let's go get my sweet sweet girl." My mother pushes us all in the limo as the limo driver opens the door for us. We get in and it consists of more pictures. When we make it Lalisa's house, I feel myself sweating bricks.

"You'll be fine." Jimin says. I nod and my mother and I get out of the car to go to Lalisa's house.

**

I stare at her, wow.. my breath is taken away completely. "Pictures! Pictures!" Our mothers yell at the same time making me laugh. "Beautiful!" I hear her mother exclaim as I instantly pull her under my arm. "I like the yellow rose touch, Jungkookie." She says to me. I look down at the yellow rose clip in the front pocket of my black suit. "I like the yellow on you.. Lalice." She looks up at me and blushes. I hear the parents screeching, even her father, which makes me laugh. "Okay, now put on the corsage." I open it and my mother zips to me to take the box. It's a really nice corsage that my mother picked out.

It goes perfect with her dress and my rose clip that had one little patch of baby breath flowers, not too much. It has two yellow roses in the middle and a few baby breath flowers around it, with a white ribbon wristband to hold it together. "Perfect!", "Okay, let's go my loves." My mother tells us, I can't wait to see her expression when she sees what we're leaving in. I hold her hand as we leave her house and when we get out Jimin and Chae also get out of the limo. "We're going in that!?" She exclaims.

I look at her with a huge smile, "Yes, we are." She runs up to it and ends up hugging Chaeyoung. I hold Lalisa's clutch and new camera as she takes more pictures with Chae, I also take a couple with her camera. We all take a thousand more pictures before we head off to prom, I'm so happy that we will all be going together.

**

"Ah! Baby, you look so beautiful." I twirl in my dress, "I know Eomma." I smile. "This dress is so perfect for you I love it.", "Taehyung's designer did an amazing job, didn't she?" She stares at the dress for a while, I know she really wanted to pay for my dress, but I wouldn't want her to go into debt for a dress I will only wear for one night. "And your makeup and hair is beautiful too." She says. "Eomma, Please don't start again. Today is prom and I don't want to worry about it." She lets out a breath. "You got me really pretty heels, my earrings are beautiful and my nails are gorgeous." I tell her and she smiles, "I know what you like.."

I give her a hug and she hugs me tight, "I just want you to have fun." She says. "I will Eomma." I tell her, she takes a couple pictures of me before there's a knock at the front door and Taehyung is here. When my mother opens the door Taehyung is there looking finer than wine, richer than wine too. He smiles, he has a few rings in his ears and a Rolex watch on his wrist. His hair looks a bit of a lighter brown and I can smell his Versace cologne from where I'm standing. He greets my mother and then he walks in. "I knew that dress would be perfect for you." He says to me.

My mother takes a few pictures of us, I grab my clutch and we head out. MY GOSH! "Taehyung!" I exclaim as I see what we're going to the dance in. "Come." He takes my hand and leads me to the huge hummer limo that is just for the two of us. "Literally, if I knew how to drive, we would've gone in a Lamborghini. But this will just have to do." I look at him and he winks. "Oh! Almost forgot." He opens the door of the limo, it doesn't go out like a regular car.. but up like the car had wings.

"Oh wow." I hear my mother say. He takes out a really nice corsage. I look at my mother and she's taking pictures of us. It had blue hydrangeas flowers on it, and it was small, but it was enough. "I love it." I tell him. "I'm glad that you do." He smiles. "Oh, now look over here." My mother tells us, I turn and Taehyung wraps his arm around my waist. We take a couple more pictures before my mother comes up to me and gives me a kiss goodbye and we're off. "You look so beautiful." He whispers as he sits really close to me. I smile and look at him, "Thanks to you I do."

He sets his thumb on my jaw and his pointer finger on the other side of my jaw, I meet his eyes. He smiles, "This'll be a night we remember forever." He says to me. I nod, and he presses his lips against mine. Good thing I'm wearing matte and it won't come off.

**

When we get there our limo gets a lot of stares from people getting out of their little sad limos. I then see Jungkook, I stare intensely at him in his all black suit. Oh my gosh, he looks so good. Then Lalisa gets out of the limo and her dress is so nice actually. Wait, did I just compliment her? But she doesn't look as pretty as me obviously, her makeup is too natural, it's prom.. it should've been more dramatic. Then I see Jimin and Chae, obviously they're so perfect. So many people are looking and Jungkook and Lalisa.

I swear on my life, if they win Prom king and queen, I'm going to rip my damn scalp off. Since this is the first Prom our school is doing ever, they didn't really know how to run the nominations so they just made it an open ballet, which I find dumb but.. it's a first in any Korean school to have a prom so.. I guess they'll learn from their mistakes. When our limo rolls up to the unloading area for students, the driver comes out and opens the door. Everyone is in awe as the lights from inside the limo catches everyone's attention and the wing like doors that are now above the car.

Taehyung gets out first so he can help me down, I wouldn't want to be the girl that falls out of her limo at the first prom. Everyone is looking at our limo, everyone. Even Jungkook and their group, for like two seconds before they walk up to the hall for bag check. I walk down elegantly before Taehyung surprises me and picks me up. I hear a lot of hollering and people saying "awe". I set a single kiss on his lips which makes the other students go wild. Got to get their votes, right? He sets me down at Taehyung holds my hand and we walk up to the building. Literally, my dress is the prettiest dress out of all the girls.

"You look like a princess Jennie!!!" I hear someone yell. I just blow them a kiss and a lot of the guys go crazy. Taehyung looks at me, I look up at him. "We need to win prom king and queen." I tell him. "I'm sure we'll win." He nods. We get through pocket and bag check, and we get inside the hall. It's so gorgeous. Our school did a really good job, the tall champagne colored walls, the hall is three stories and you can see all the other floors from where we're standing. A huge chandelier hanging from the ceiling. Long pieces of white fabric hanging from the chandelier and were pulled to the wall. It made the room a bit pink, a soft pink.

"Would you guys like to vote for King and Queen?" A girl asks. I walk over to the table and pull Taehyung along. "Who do I vote for?" He asks, I give him that, REALLY? Look. I write our names in the ballet and he does as well. I smile and fold my paper and put it in the box. "Thank you!" She says and we walk away. Oh, and all the I explained earlier, that was just the entrance of the hall. We walk up to the second floor and head into the dinning room where everyone is getting seated because the food would be served in like a few minutes from now. I look around for my drama friends.

"Jennie!!!" I hear them. I smile and hold Taehyung's hand and we walk over to them. When I get closer, my smile slowly goes away. Areum is at the table. Ugh, her dress is a similar color as mine! Okay, her makeup is too much, doesn't go with her dress at all.

She sees me, her smile goes away too. Her black hair is curled and the sides pinned up on the sides. Her dress is way too revealing and she doesn't even have the body for that dress, it's sticking to nothing. And the red lipstick looks so tacky with the color of the dress. We sit at the table and the girls are already talking off my ear. "Omg, your dress is so beautiful." My friend tells me. "Thank you, Taehyung's designer designed it just for me." I smile as I look at Areum, rubbing it in her face.

"Your hair is gorgeous too!" Another girl I don't even know says to me, I think she's also in drama. Ugh, it's not my job to know who everyone is. "Oh thank you." I smile wider as I hold onto Taehyung's hand. Actually, most of these girls I don't know. "Are those real flowers in your hair?" Another girl asks. "Yes, actually picked from the garden in front of Taehyung's house. That's our special place, huh baby?" I turn to him and he just nods. He's actually acting really quiet. I just kiss him quickly and the girls screech, I wrap his arm around my shoulder and look straight at Areum.

"You look like an actual Disney Princess." Another girl says to me, I smile and look at her. "Thank you! You do too!" Not, her dress looks like she took it from her great grandmother's wardrobe. "Have you guys voted for king and queen yet?" I ask them. My friends nod. "We voted for you and Taehyung." They say quickly. "We haven't." The other girls I don't know, say. "I have." Areum says, making the table go quiet and my smile slowly fade but I put it back up so the other girls don't see I have a problem with her. "I voted for Jungkook and Lalisa." She says, and my blood boils so hot you can cook instant noodles in less than a second. She just grins, and I notice that every time she talks.. Taehyung stiffens up.. did something happen between them?

I quickly look at him and he's just looking down at his phone. My eyebrows knit and then I look back up at her. "AYE AYE!!!" I hear from the other side of the room, I roll my eyes. Probably annoying people, they need to zip it.

**

We sit at a table with some of the baseball and softball people. "AYE AYE!!! HOO HOO HOO HOO!! JUUUUNG... KOOOOOOK!!" The boys holler for Jungkook as we sit down. I chuckle and he retracts his arm from around my waist to pull the chair out for me. "You guys are looking good, didn't think that Jungkook could clean up so well." One of the guys teases, I recognize him, he's the guy that tried to pick up on me on my first day of work. Oy, how awkward, I just keep smiling. "Lalisa, oh my gosh, you look so gorgeous. I think the natural look really fits you with your natural beauty." One of the softball girls says to me.

"Awe, thank you!" I tell her. "You stand out so much, literally.. you're the only girl wearing a yellow dress." Another girl adds. I look around and she's right, a lot of girls are wearing a shade of blue, pink, red or black. I gasp and look at them, "I don't like standing out." I say. "Oh my gosh Lalisa, stop. You're literally perfect for tonight." Chae tells me as she sets her hand on mine. I smile, "I voted for you to be prom queen." I hear from the table. "Huh?" I ask them. "We all want you to win prom queen." I shake my head. "Oh no no no." I say nervously.

"Yes yes yes! You both are the cutest couple ever." Another teammate adds. "The whole softball team and baseball team voted for you two." They say. "Us too." I hear Jimin. I turn to him and Chae nods. I feel really nervous, I'm not so good at winning things or going up in front of people. Uuuuu, do I even deserve to win? "Thanks anyways." I say to all of them. "We told all of our friends to vote for you guys too." My eyes widen. "Thank you." I hear Jungkook. I look at him and he smiles. "Uuuuuuu! You guys are the cutest." I hear Chae. I turn to her and blush, "Stooooop." I whine to her.

"Oh my gosh! You have a Polaroid!?" One of the girls asks. I nod. "My parents surprised me with it today." I tell them. "Oh! Can I see it!?" I nod and hand it to her. "I've been wanting one so bad." She tells me and the other girls look at it. "We can all take pictures after dinner if you guys would like." I tell them, and they all agree. We all go into several conversations before dinner arrives and is served to everyone table by table. "Oh my gosh, I wasn't going to talk about it.. but did you see Taehyung flaunting his money around in front of everyone?" I hear one of the girls say.

"Yes, but he has the money and the girl to do it, so I don't blame him.", "But that hummer limo was really cool.", "And did you see how he picked her up?", "That was so cute. Goals honestly." I just eat my food trying not to really mind too much of the talk about Taehyung and Jennie. "This food is so good, like it was made from like.. professional chiefs." Chae says to me, I look at her and smile. I know what she's doing, she doesn't want to have to listen to people talk about the couple. "Thanks." I whisper to her. She winks at me and we continue eating.

**

I excuse myself from dinner, and look for the boys room. "If you're looking for the bathroom.. it's on the second floor." She tells me. I look at her, "Hey Areum.. how've you been?" I ask her. She smiles and walks over to me from against the wall, was she watching me? "I wish I could say good." I feel my mouth go dry. "Why?" I ask. She shrugs. "Because...it's like, ever since that one day my brothers spent with you, they won't stop talking about you." She looks away from me.

"I'm sorry, you know.. I told you that I only think of you as a friend. And.. what happened that day, it was just for fun." I tell her. "I know, but.. it made me think a lot, seeing you here with... her." She says, I use my tongue to give my lips moisture. "I'm sorry that things didn't go the way you wanted Areum, but I'm with Jennie." I tell her. She looks choked up, "I know you are." She says, her nostrils flare. "Just don't let her ruin Lalisa's night." She says out of nowhere. "What?" I ask. "Taehyung, you know she hates her. Jennie is going to do anything she can go ruin Lalisa's night, especially if she doesn't win Prom Queen." She says to me.

She walks up to me fully, "I'm going to sit at another table.. I can't deal with her looks. She's been staring at me since you guys sat at the table, I'm not going to go all night with her looks. It makes me feel so ugly, and I still don't understand why you're with her." She says to me. I slowly look away from her, "Excuse me." I tell her as I walk up the stairs and to the bathroom. I walk into the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror. I already don't feel nice about this dance, maybe when the rest of the dance will be fun. Fingers crossed.

I turn on the water and wet my face, then drying up gently with the paper towels. I let out a breath and walk out of the bathroom, I bump into someone. "Sorry." I smile, "Hey Jungkook." I say, "Hi Taehyung." He says. "Your suit is really nice, that all black looks real slim on you." He smiles, "Thanks." He says, "Have a great night kid." I set my hand on his shoulder before walking away from him and down the hall back to Jennie at the table. I finish up my food and try to relax next to Jennie, and as promised.. Areum doesn't come back to the table.

I just sit back and try to be engaged with the conversation that Jennie is having with the other girls at the table. It's actually really hard to stay on topic with them because I am literally the only guy at the table. In no time, they open up the dessert table. Delicious traditional Korean desserts are displayed on the table for us to pick from. I've never been so excited to eat dessert before, everything looks so appetizing. I ask Jennie if she wants some dessert but she passes on the offer, I'm guessing because of the dress? I don't get why girls feel the need to eat less just so that they can look nice, or fit in a dress.

For me, honestly I like it when a girl has a big appetite. I don't care about her size, as long as I love her and she loves me, that's all that matters. I definitely wouldn't want my girl to push a plate away, or refuse dessert. If I do say so myself, dessert has always been a important food group. I just made that up, I'm trying to make myself laugh. I wait a while before I ask Jennie out to the dance floor, I don't want to be that one person that throws up at prom. Then again, I wouldn't know if that's ever happened before but I don't want to be the first.

There are a few people on the dance floor, basically all the girls that were at the table with us followed Jennie. Whoopie. When a slow song comes on, I pull Jennie to my body as quick as I could. Not that I think that someone would want to take her for me, I just want her close to me. She smiles and wraps her arms around my neck, I wrap my arms around her waist. I stare at her face, I see her blush and slowly look away from me, I press my forehead on the side of her head.

She smells like a garden, and her hair is so soft. I run one of my hands up her back. When the slow song ends, I set a kiss on her head. I smile and when a fast song comes on, I twirl her and she throws her head back and laughs. I smile at her as I start to dance with her. I start to get hot and take off my coat, sweating a little.

**

I take off my coat and pull her onto the dance floor. "Jungkook!" She laughs. Quickly after the whole table follows after us onto the dance floor. It's a fun jumpy song, the whole time I watch Lalisa as I try my best to dance at the same rhythm as her. When I look over, I see Jimin and Chaeyoung grinding on each other, my eyes widen. Oh..wow. I look back at Lalisa as quick as possible, not wanting to ever see that again. Since Lalisa is wearing heels, she's a little taller. I grab her hand and slowly turn her as she sways her hips side to side. My heart in my chest begins to pound really hard.

"Dance Jungkook." She tells me, I chuckle. "I am." I tell her. "Move your hips silly." She sets her hands on my waist and makes me move under her command, making me laugh. When I start moving more, she starts saying, "Aye aye aye aye." With the beat of the music and claps her hands, encouraging me more. I grab one of her hands again and hold onto it as I move to the music. Then Chae and Jimin get closer to us and the girls dance together and Jimin just watches Chae as he leans into me, like he's going to say something. I lean in so he can talk to me.

"I think I'm going to do it with Chaeyoung tonight, you know.. something special." He tells me, I didn't need to know that Jimin.. geeze. "How about you? Are you going to finally do it with Lalisa?" He asks me as he looks at me, "Huh!?" I act like I didn't hear him. "You know, it's like the cool thing in America. Just gotta stick with trends like in the movies, you don't care too much about virginity.. do you?" He asks me. Wow, this conversation came out of nowhere. "I don't think so, we haven't even had the talk yet." I tell him. "Not even when you got a-", "No, she has no idea and I want it to stay that way." He just stares at me.

"I just don't think stuff like that is important." I tell him. "Well, just to let you in on a little secret.. Chae talks about it to Lalisa all the damn time they're together." My heart and stomach sink, becoming one big pile at my feet. "What?" I ask. "Yeah, supposedly Lalisa is interested in talking about that stuff with Chae.. it's just a girl thing.. I wouldn't worry about it dude." Then why'd you tell me... now I'll be thinking about it all night. Damn Jimin.

My mouth goes dry and I look at Lalisa, is it important?

**

"Dude, I think I'm going to do it with Jimin tonight." She tells me in my ear, I gasp. "Really?" I ask. She nods as we dance to the music. "I think it will be special being that it's Prom.. there's only one prom in a lifetime." She tells me, "I hope it's special for you." I tell her. She then wiggles her eyebrows at me and I get the hint. "Oh, no no no.. I don't think that will happen anytime soon." I tell her. "Why not?" She asks. "Not even after you told me he got a-", "Yes, I just think he doesn't want that. And I'm fine with it." She raises an eyebrow.

"Are you really?" She asks. I nod, "Yes, it's not important to me.. I only want our relationship to be something sweet.. and if we get to that point, then we do." She smiles, "This is why you guys are so damn perfect together, it's actually sickening." I chuckle. "No it's not." She nods quickly. I smile and she drops the conversation. We dance to the music and have lots of fun, then I see Jungkook sitting at the table again... by himself, I excuse myself and walk over to him. He grins at me, "What happened?" I ask him. "I wanted you to have fun." He says. "I am having fun, I want you to have fun too." I tell him.

He looks very bothered, and I stare at his face for a while. "What's wrong? Are you okay?" I ask him. "Can we talk somewhere where it isn't loud and we can be alone?" He asks, my heart starts to pound really hard. What is he going to tell me? I quickly nod and he stands up, putting on his coat and grabs my hand, leading me out of the room and we search for a quiet place away from other people. We find a garden outside behind the hall and there aren't many people there, only some students taking pictures and a few couples making out. We walk far away from them and find a bench, it's actually pretty chilly.

"Here." He says, taking off his coat and putting it over my shoulders then pulling the front together so it can cover my chest. I pull my arms through the sleeves. "Thank you.." I whisper, I stare at his face. He won't say anything. "What did you want to talk about?" I ask him and I see him stiffen up, I become real nervous. "What do you.. see in this relationship?" He asks me, oh no.. is he going to break up with me at prom? This would be the worst first prom ever. "What?" I ask him. "Like, what do you gain from us being together?" He asks. I turn to him, "Are you trying to tell me you want to break up?" I ask him.

His eyes widen and he shakes his head, "No, I didn't mean it that way... I mean.." he shakes his head again, as if trying to shake a thought away. "I'm letting Jimin get to my head." I hear him say under his breath. "What is Jimin telling you?" I ask him and he looks at me shocked, then he lets out a breath. "He's been.. saying stuff about sex and.. it made me think that it's what you want soon in this relationship, being that he also said that you talk about stuff with Chae and-" my body freezes. He stares at me, "Unless.. it.. isn't.", "It's not, I even told Chae a second ago that it isn't important." He lets out a breath of relief.

"But I do want to know, will we ever be intimate?" He slowly grins, "I don't see why not.", "It's just that I don't see you as the... um.. type.", "Type?" He looks nervous. "You know, like the type to think dirty thoughts and to want the type of relationship that Jimin and Chaeyoung have." His eyes then widen, "Lalisa, mm, I actually have something to tell you that I've been really shy to.. and my little heart hurts everytime I think about what you'd say.. but.. on the weekend trip I spent with you.. I-I got a-", "I know." I say.

His eyes look like they're about to fall out of his head, he even looks a little pale. "W-What?" He asks. "I know.. I heard you telling Jimin after your shower, and then it was obvious cause you're obvious." His hands touch his really red cheeks. "Oh my... oh my gosh.. I.. oh my gosh." He stands up walking around in circles talking to me but also himself, "You probably think I'm a little creep.. or a.. a.. a little gross boy.. and I.. oh my gosh." I stand up and when he's facing the right direction, I grab his face and he stares at me, his body relaxing. My hands over his.

"Jungkook.. what are you so worried about?" I ask him. "I-I... I gotta.. and I-Ah." I smile and pull his head so our foreheads are against each other. His hands drop and I'm only holding his face. "I don't understand why you're freaking out." I whisper to him, he says nothing. "Are you trying to explain to me that something so natural is wrong?" I let out a breath, "Jungkook, I'm honestly honored." I chuckle nervously. "And my gosh, if you're a little.. gross boy." I laugh at the last two words. "Then I love you just the same and as much as I've loved you since the day you stole my heart." I kiss his forehead. "I love you Jungkook, everything about you, everything thought you think and action you act.. I love." I pour my heart out to him.

"Can you... speak to me?" I lift his head, and he's laughing quietly to himself with his eyes closed, he's so weird! I chuckle, "What?" I ask him. "My gosh.." He whispers. "Why the hell are you so perfect.. and how did I get so lucky?" He finally opens his eyes, "Oh... Jungkook.. I'm far from perfect." He shakes his head and grabs my wrists with his hands, lifting my hands off his face. "You're actually more than perfect." He says to me. I feel my face heat up, but I don't hide it. "I'm so in love with you." He says. I smile. "Jungkook.." I whisper, he stares at me waiting for what I have to say.

"Kiss me." I barely even say words and his lips are already against mine. My heart so happy in my chest and I feel like I can float away on a cloud. If my heart were a light, that light would be able to be seen from America. They would probably see it and really freak out.. okay.. maybe not that. Never mind, scratch that. His arm tight around me and the way he kisses me, my goodness. There's so much passion, I never thought that he could show more of it in a kiss.. but I was wrong. In the middle of our kiss, he won't stop smiling, which is so contagious and makes me smile.

I wrap my arms around his neck and dig my fingers into his soft hair. I then hear a "Shhhh!" That catches my attention, I detach myself from Jungkook, and my heart turns to mashed potatoes. Chae and Jimin with my camera, they had already taken several pictures of Jungkook and I kissing, my goodness. I feel Jungkook kiss my jaw making my heart reform into a potato, only to have it pop. "Yup yup, got that one too. You'll thank me later." Chae winks at me and she yanks Jimin away from us. "Oooh my gosh." I whine, I bury my face in Jungkook's neck. One of his hands runs up my back to soothe me.

"We should go back... it's cold out here, I don't want you to get sick." He tells me. I nod as I enjoy being next to his neck for a few seconds longer. But I find myself wrapping my arms around his torso and hugging him longer. He then wraps his arms around me.

I'm actually having so much fun, but I walk out of the room to look for the water bottle stand everyone is saying they have. I spot it and walk over to it. I'm sweating like a pig, my gosh, my hair is all wet. "Taehyung." I hear next to me. I turn while drinking my water. It's Areum, and her face gets really pink, what? Why is she staring at me like that? I drop the water bottle, and I just stare at her. I don't want to ask her, "What?" Or "What do you want?" That would be rude. "Yes?" I ask instead. "I'm going to leave soon from this.. dance and .. I really need to talk to you." She tells me.

I look around, I don't want other people to see me with her. They would get the wrong idea. "Fine, but not here." I say. "There's a balcony on the second floor." She tells me. I nod and we walk up together. When we walk up to the balcony I'm in awe, the view is so nice. She waits for me against the cement barrier, I walk up to her. "What is it that you need to talk about? I have Jennie inside, she'll wonder where I am.", "Who cares? I bet she doesn't even care where you are right now." She says.

"I just need to know if I ever had a chance with you." She looks sad actually. "You mean like, what?" I ask. She lets out a heavy breath and looks away from me, "You know what I mean Taehyung." I shut my teeth together, "I really enjoyed my time with you a lot, and you made me feel really nice and wanted.. I really did, but as long as I have Jennie, I'm not going to have other thoughts about other girls." She then looks at me and I see that she's crying. "It's really unfair." She says, and I feel choked up. I hate it when girls cry.

"She doesn't deserve anything you give her." She tells me. "At least I would know that loving you would mean something more than just looks, reputation and money. You know she's still with you because she wanted her reputation to stay intact. She probably hasn't told you that she mistreats Lalisa, because she wants you to continue to think that she's so innocent and perfect." I clench my jaw, no, she wouldn't. "You think so highly of her when I feel like you should lower your standards." She walks closer to me, "I wish.. that I could love you the way that you need to be loved, but the longer you're with her. The more I lose hope." I stare at her with a pain in my heart.

A girl like her shouldn't want me so bad, there's nothing that amazing about me. She surprises me when she sets a kiss on my cheek and walks past me. I stare off into space, staring at the moon that had risen maybe two hours ago. I let out a breath and walk over to the boys bathroom to clean up, I also realize that her lipstick is on my cheek. Oh damn it. When I'm able to get it off it just leaves my cheek pink. I also cool off by wetting my face and neck. Then I head out to the hall, then downstairs to Jennie. Only to have her standing there with her arms crossed, when I make it up to her she looks mad. "They're about to call the King and Queen. Hurry up." She tells me.

I run up to her and we walk into the dance area. "We will now be naming the King and Queen for our first Prom!" One of the student council people say. Everyone cheers and I hold Jennie's hand only to have her yank it away from me, I stare at her really hard. Is she mad that I took so long? "We actually had a tie." Everyone gasps. "Can I Please have these lovely couples come here in the middle of the dance floor?" Everyone makes a hole. "Lalisa Manoban And Jeon Jungkook." There are so many screams. They walk out from the crowd holding hands and they look really happy. Please call Jennie, please call Jennie. "And.."

"Kim Taehyung and Kim Jennie." I smile and I physically see Jennie put on the fakest smile in the world. She grabs my hand and pulls me out to the middle, I'm forced to fake a smile as well. Also, more people cheer for us as well. When we're in the middle she instantly lets go of my hand, and I try not to react too much to it. "This voting had to me settled by the Principal who broke the tie." The girl announces. "For the first time ever, I'm going to announce the Prom King and Queen." She shows everyone a little envelope. She then opens it and I see people trying to peak at the names.

"And the Prom King and Queen are..." I cross my fingers really hard, hoping and praying that we will get picked. Then maybe Jennie would forgive me for being late. "Kim Taehyung and Kim Jennie!" People cheer for us but not as much cheers there were for Lalisa and Jungkook. "Congratulations." They say to us, I nod to them and smile and they walk back into the crowd. A sash is pulled over my head and a crown is set on my raunchy hair. "Congratulations to the King and Queen!" I turn and look at her but she doesn't look at me once. "Now a slow dance just for the King and Queen."

They put on a slow song for us and I instantly grab her hand and gently spin her making many girls screech. She finally looks at me, mostly because she has to while we're dancing. I smile at her but she tries to avoid eye contact as she looks and waves at other people. What can I do? I press my head to the side of hers and I whisper in her ear, "Now you're a queen tonight." But she says nothing. When the song is over are dance is over and she retracts herself from me. I'm so confused. She's still mad that I showed up late? We still ended up winning!

"Now we need you two for pictures for the yearbook." They tell us and we head over to where ever they wanted us to be, and more fake smiles and in most of the pictures I had to be holding her in some way, which I could feel her hating it. When we're done, the photographer let's us go back to the dance but Jennie goes up to the second floor and I let her cool down.

**

After the pictures I go right up to the floor where the bathroom, when I'm up there... I run into the blonde and Chae. We both meet at the bathroom door and the blonde looks terrified to see me, I smile. "Here, you go first." I insist, Chae goes first and then the blonde, my foot accidentally trips her. I gasp and stand up straight, the blonde looks back at me. "Are you okay?" I ask with my hand on my chest. "You have some nerve!" Chaeyoung exclaims to me. Luckily no one else is in the hallway. She stomps up to me and I wait for her to get in my face but the blonde stops her as she stands up.

"Chae.. she's not even worth it." That dog tells her. Chaeyoung looks me up and down with her top lip shaking, then she turns and they continue to walk down the hall. I walk into the bathroom and adjust the beautiful crown on my head. I smile wide and then I remember..

•About twenty minutes ago•

Another slow song comes on and I search around for Taehyung, I thought he went to go get water. He isn't back yet. "After this song, we'll be announcing Prom Queen and King!" The DJ announces. I run out of the dance area and go to look for Taehyung, we can't miss it when our names get called for King and Queen. I see there's no one at the table with waters. I then head up to the second floor, I walk past the balcony. I give it a glance before I stare at them, they're whispering to each other and I can't really hear them.

And it's like everything goes into slow motion before my eyes as Areum kisses Taehyung on the cheek. My blood boils, it's all about to spew out of my head like a volcanic eruption. I run back downstairs.

**

My jaw clenched as I look at myself, I hate that the night would've been perfect but now it's not. I shake my head and walk out of the bathroom. Taehyung is waiting for me at the end of the stairs, that with the crown still on his head. He has his arms crossed over his chest. "Are you going to explain why you're treating me like I'm dirty?" He asks. "No." I tell him. "No? So I don't deserve something like the truth?", "Not here." I tell him as I walk past him. "Now what?", "I want to go home." I tell him.

He just stares at me, "Take me home, now." I tell him. His jaw clenched, "Now." I tell him then turn to the dining area and grab my clutch and his coat. I don't say bye to anyone and I leave the room, Taehyung is about to walk up to me when I shove his coat into his chest and walk through the entrance of the hall. "Jennie!" I hear him. "Not now Taehyung, wait until we're in the car." I tell him. We wait in the spot we were dropped off at the beginning of prom. We stay quiet until the limo pulls up and the driver gets out to open the door for us. Taehyung lets me get in first, offering his hand and I take it so I don't fall.

We get in and we wait a while until the car starts up. "So, are you going to tell me now?" He asks, "I saw you." I tell him. "Saw me what?" He looks at me confused. "Don't act stupid!" I yell at him, "I saw you with her!" He then looks choked up, "It's nothing, I promise you.", "So you let you touch you?" His eyebrows knit, "I don't get what you're so mad about." Grab his face and poke my finger in his cheek, her lipstick stain still there. "Here! With her lips!" He says nothing, "If you want her, just tell me!" I shove him away. "Jennie, I don't!" He yells at me. "I don't believe you, I felt you get nervous when she would talk or look at me."

"And don't you deny it!" I yell at him, "I just didn't feel comfortable.", "Why? You were with me! Why!?" We stare at each other for a long time. "Taehyung, this time... I'm really done. I don't think I can be with you ever again, I don't want to be with you and I don't want to hear from you. I'll give you back the dress." I tell him. He stares at me, "Jennie, please listen to me." He looks like he's going to cry. "No, you don't have to tell me a damn thing because I already know." He grabs my hands and I try to yank them away.

"STOP!" I yell at him. "STOP, I don't want you anymore!" I push him. "What? What is there for me to do to have you?" He asks in a gentle voice. "Nothing." I tell him. "But-", "No, I said I'm done and I mean it." His tears fall. "But I love you." He says. "Yeah, well.. that's not enough anymore." I tell him. "Was it ever enough?" He asks me. "At one point it was, but it isn't anymore." I tell him. He just stares at me as tears continue to roll down his cheeks. I look away from him and out the window. "Jennie..", "Don't talk to me." I whisper to him.

We get to my house and I get up to leave but he grabs my wrist, "Jennie." I hear him. I turn back to him and yank my hand away from him. "Don't." I get out and run up to my house, but he doesn't come after me.
