59 ~ Guardian Angel
Thank you all for waiting, but I'm back and I brought updates ;)))
It's a shitty update, but it's an update :)
Edited.

"I was thinking, what if we pull up in like a limousine?" Alex said as you were cleaning down tables.
"Yeah, I would totally do that" you said.
"Really?" Her eyes widened.
"No" you sighed, rolling your eyes in the process.
"Why not?" She pouted.
"Because, I don't like that much attention on me" you said, returning to the counter that Alex was sitting on the other side of.
"You and me, we are polar opposites" she sniggered and you couldn't help but agree.
She took a swig of the rest of her coffee.
"I don't get how you can have coffee without milk or sugar. It's so bitter"
"Sugar is calories and milk is fattening"
"So use sweeteners and low fat milk, I'll give you them next time" you suggested and she smiled with a nod.
"It's weird how we're friends now" she giggled. "I mean, if someone told us a few months ago that would be like we are now I would've laughed in their face" she said thoughtfully.
"Me too, honestly" you smiled. "So what happened when you went to Jimin's earlier to ask about the dance?"
"Well he wouldn't give me an answer until I said you were going, then he said that he would" she sighed. "He's so blinded by love"
You smiled.
"You'll understand why some day" you say shyly.
"Stop being cutesy and in love, it's making me uncomfortable" She squirms and you giggle.
"For someone who was desperate to make Jimin fall in love with you and is currently in a relationship with someone you're smitten for, you don't seeming to like the concept of love" you laughed and Alex shrugged.
"Yeah, I don't know" she answered shyly. "It's just....weird?"
"What's weird about it?"
"I don't know, the butterflies in your stomach that make you feel sick and the way you smile all the time, subconsciously" she shakes her head. "It's weird"
"It's not weird! It's completely normal" you smile at her silliness. "If you are telling me that you don't like the butterflies and the constant smiling, then I don't think you will ever like falling in love, because that's what it's like. All. The. Time." you explain.
"I never said it was a bad weird" she murmured. "Just a....different kind of weird"
"You're nearly there my young child" you say jokingly while tapping her on the head.
"I know" she admits. "That's what I am afraid of"
///
"Do you like it sir?" The young woman asked.
"It doesn't m-matter if I like it, it o-only matters if she likes i-it" Jimin sighed, his throat still sore, but definitely better. "And you th-ink a girl would l-like it this colour?" He asked skeptically.
"I promise you, all girls dig the natural colour" she smirked seeing how love sick he was.
He just wanted to impress you and show you that this is a new him.
"But my m-muffin isn't like all g-girls" he whined.
"She will love it, trust me"
Jimin just sighed and nodded.
"I sure hope you're r-right"
///
"Okay, we don't have much time left and you're hair is still a wreck so you'd better hurry the hell up" Alex hollered.
"Can't you just do it for me?" You whined. "I don't know how to work all these gadgets and stuff"
"Ok first of all, of course I can help you. And second of all, a hair straight is not a gadget, it is a serious weapon of mass destruction" she said waving the device at you.
"It can not only straighten your hair, but there is a technique you can use to curl your hair" she explains.
"Ahh, I see" you said pretending to sound interested.
And then Alex proceeded to tell you about other beauty products that you had no clue about.
You began to daydream, thinking about seeing your loved one again.
You felt guilty.
You were purposely hurting him. By doing this you were being just as bad as him.
You don't want to hurt him.
He's to precious to break.
"Y/n? Are you even listening to me?" Alex brought you back from your daydreams. "I'm telling you some very valuable information" she scolds.
"I'm sorry, it's just-"
"You don't want to hurt him and see his little puppy dog eyes fill with tears?" You nodded. "Well he hurt you and saw your little puppy dog eyes fill with tears so why can't you do it back?"
"Because then I'm just as bad as he was. He's not like that anymore anyways. So what's even the point" you sigh.
Alex returns the sigh and sits in front of you.
"The point is that, yes, it may be mean what we are doing" she admits with a shrug of her shoulders and you shake your head. "But! It teaches him a lesson that if he ever tries to pull a stunt like that again that you won't take it" she said while holding your hand.
"Y/n, love is great I'm sure. It's amazing to have that special someone, but if they treat you like shit, it sucks"
You glance towards her. "You sound like you're talking from experience" you say feeling small.
"It may not have been love, but I was in the same position when I wanted to date Jimin more than anything and you wouldn't believe how happy I was when I did get that chance" she smiled recalling memories of her old self. "But it was as torturous when that person who I thought I loved treats you like dirt because they didn't like me and knowing they would rather be with the girl who worked in the local cafe" she said nudging your shoulder.
You nodded your head, soaking in Alex's wise words of wisdom and experience.
"Just don't be the wimp that I was, because Jimin is amazing, no one is denying that. But he can loose his senses sometimes. He can get carried away with the way life is treating him, so we are going to put him in his place, Okay?" She asked.
You looked at her and thought about how much of a good and genuine person she has been to you recently.
She's helping.
"Okay" you replied and she nodded with a small supportive smile.
"Let's get you dressed and ready then"
///
"Geez your hands are sweaty" Taehyung said to Jimin after they high-fived each other because Taehyung won rock paper scissors against Jungkook for shotgun.
Jimin was driving as it was his car, so he just sat nervously, hopping his leg up and down as his friends played there childish games.
Jimin didn't even want to go to this so called "stupid dance"-his words-, but you were going so that made the tables turn.
Now he needed to go.
"Why are your hands so clammy?" The two boys asked.
"Because I'm n-nervous!" Jimin whined. "I m-miss her for good-n-ness sake" he sighed rubbing his temple.
"But you can't smother her either" Taehyung said truthfully.
"Yeah, I would advise that when we get there you don't talk to her. You giver her space and let her think, because y/n will only push you further away" Jungkook spoke and Taehyung nodded in agreement.
"But-"
"Nope! Let her come to you first" Jungkook instructed.
Jimin felt angry and annoyed that his friends were babying him around.
He was older then them! He should be babying them around!
But he came to realize that they were right.
He just didn't want to face the reality of giving you space.
"You look dapper Jimin, let's just forget about girls for one night. I'm not even going to this dance with my girlfriend anyways" Taehyung said, trying to make Jimin feel better.
"That's because she d-doesn't even go to our school" Jimin deadpanned.
"That's besides the point"
Jimin just rolled his eyes.
///
"Where is it?" You asked.
"In the gym" Alex answered simply and you nodded.
You both walked through the door, beautifully dressed and dolled up, and were met with your usual gym hall with nice decorations scattered around the place.
"Wow, they really decorated the school well" you said, eyeing all the banners and streamers with balloons that were around the walls and hanging from the ceiling.
There was music playing and there was very few people dancing, most of the people there were socializing at the side of the gym.
You looked around hoping to see a familiar face.
"He's not here yet" Alex smoothly said, grabbing a drink.
"Right" you said embarrassed.
You glanced over to Alex and laughed when you saw her face scrunched up.
"That fruit punch is nasty" she said disgusted.
"I can imagine" you giggled.
///
It's been nearly an hour.
Jimin still wasn't here.
The music started to pick up a little bit and more people were dancing but there still wasn't a whole lot of them on the dance floor.
You sighed and leaned your back against the wall behind you.
"This place sucks" Alex complained, looking around the gym.
"I agree" you said. "When is he coming?" You asked, trying to act nonchalant.
"He should be the least of worries" Alex eyed you and you nodded.
As if on cue, the gym doors opened and a whole flock of people entered the area and this flock of people included the infamous trio that you were awaiting.
But they were different this time.
Because Jimin dyed his hair.
And oh my lord did it look good.
It suited him in every way, shape and form.
You immediately tensed up, taking your back off the wall and standing stiffly.
"Stop being so tense, he'll notice and know that you're paying attention to him" Alex hissed.
"But did you see his hair?" You hissed back.
"His hair-?" Alex asked confused and she cut herself off when she looked up and saw the beautiful, natural brown hair on Jimin's head.
"Oh god, you're screwed" she admitted and walked away, leaving you a nervous mess.
You watched as a load of people walked around socializing and of course stealing the occasional quick glance at Jimin to see what he was up to and of course to check out his new hair.
Damn.
And every time you looked, he seemed to be searching around the room looking for someone, who you were hoping was you.
"Hello" a voice took you out of your daydream.
You glanced up to see Jackson.
His back was to Jimin, so he couldn't see what Jackson was saying.
"Hi" you replied.
"I passed by him so that I would gain his attention and I know that he is looking at us now. So...may I have this dance?" He asked sweetly, placing his hand out to you.
"You're cheesy, I like it" you laughed in a friendly manner and grabbed his hand.
"She likes cheesy lines, noted" Jackson murmured as he led you to where people were dancing.
You gazed over to Alex and she looked towards you with a thumbs up.
"Okay let me get this straight," Jackson began as you both danced. "You are doing this to get back at Jimin?" He asked and you nodded.
"He did something very bad" you scolded him mentally.
Jackson perked up.
He thought that because of this "very bad thing" that Jimin did, he might have a chance with you.
However, that was not the case.
///
Jimin nervously scratched his new head of hair as he glanced around the room.
He knew you were here somewhere, he could feel it.
He could feel your presence.
He decided to go over to a nearby table to get some fruit punch.
He could already see that it looked vile, but it gave home a reason to walk around and see if you were anywhere to be seen.
And just as he was making his way towards the table he heard someone greet him.
He looked up to see his old friends as it were.
"Hey Jimin" Jae smirked.
Jimin just nodded his head, avoiding straining his voice.
Chanyeol stood awkwardly near them and Jimin didn't hesitate to death glare him.
It was his fault that you found out about something that was in the past.
Well gone into the past.
He didn't think you were a loser.
"H-hi buddy" Chanyeol said nervously.
"Don't speak to me" Jimin said.
And he said it with no raspy voice or one stutter.
He turned on his heel and began to walk away.
And on his way back to Jungkook and Taehyung, a familiar figure passed by him.
Jackson.
Jackson smiled gently at Jimin and continued walking.
Jimin followed his gaze to where Jackson was walking.
And there you were.
Leaning up against the wall of the gym.
Looking like an actual angel sent from above.
You were his guardian angel.
And then he saw it. He saw Jackson extended his hand to you, and with almost slight hesitation you took it.
And that's when the pang of hurt hit Jimin.
He saw you and Jackson walk toward the others and start to dance.
He hated it.
///
"So do you find yourself being lonely nowadays?" Jackson asked.
You shrugged. "I guess yeah, but I hang out a lot with Alex now" you smiled and he nodded.
Jackson took a minute to soak in his surroundings.
The lights, the people and the atmosphere.
If he didn't ask now, he never would.
"Y/n?" Jackson asked.
"Hmm?"
"I've been meaning to ask you something" he was clearly nervous.
"Y/n, I really like you. Like a lot. I always have. Ever since I began working in the cafe and you were so friendly" he sighed, his hands shaking.
"And I've tried to drop hints to you, but you clearly weren't getting them. I've never been happier than the little while that you and I were a fake couple. It was a dream for me, I love you y/n" Jackson confessed.
You heart was in your mouth.
The hell?
Jackson likes you? No, scratch that, loves you?
It was a cute confession, but it was nothing compared to when Jimin first confessed his love for you.
Maybe because Jackson doesn't love you, he just thinks he does.
It can't be true.
"Jackson-" you began.
"No" a deep voice seethed.
A/N: I'm back finally!!!
