The film ends and the lights in the cinema slowly fade on, people are starting to walk out. i let go of namjoons hand and smile at him shyly as i stand up and start to walk towards the exit.
"UGH that was so good, i love that movie so much" jennie says grabbing my hand, i smile at her and say "me too" gently
i check my phone and see it's around 5pm. i still have an hour to kill before my art class i think. i could always go early?
"it's been so great seeing you guys again" yugyeom smiles widely as he slings his arm around namjoon and hoseok "but i have to get home, i have a music project to start" he sighs and waves to us all goodbye.
"yeah i should probably start that project too" jennie pouts "i have nothing else to do could i help you" jisoo says tugging her arm gently
"of course you can, let's go to my place" jennie smiles "see you guys later !!" jisoo waves goodbye as they walk off together.
"hey y/n isn't your art class soon?" hoseok smiles at me as we all walk away from the cinema
"yeah it starts at 6, so i still have an hour" i pause and look at my phone again
"i could always go early i guess" i mumble
"you're so eager to get away from us" namjoon laughs as he nudges me, hoseok joins in
"ouch ouch ouch" i pretend to get hurt but laugh anyways.
"we will walk you there, you're very own body guards" hoseok jokes as we all walk on.
"so what will you guys be doing whilst i'm gone and everyone else is busy" i look at both of them, eyes wide.
"hmmm good question" namjoon says looking at hoseok
"we could play video games" hoseok suggests with a wide smile, namjoons eyes glimmer as he smiles back and says "yes". after a little while we reach the university and they drop me off at the art classroom, hoseok walks off and tells me to have a good time.
"text me when you're ready to leave and i'll pick you up okay?" namjoon smiles and pats my head
"okay" i smile, just as namjoon was about to walk away felix walks over
"hey guys" he smiles at me and namjoon
namjoon has a confused look on his face and looks at me
"oh hey felix, what are you doing here?" i ask with a smile, felix nudges me playfully "oh i thought i'd join the art class after school"
"oh that's great! we can sit together" i smile, namjoon is still standing there
"of course!" felix opens the door for me and i give a little wave to namjoon, with his eyes wide he hesitantly waves back, the door closes and me and felix walk into the room. no one is there yet of course, we are half an hour early at this point. i sit down and get out my sketchbook and pencils and start planning what i'll be drawing today. i look over at felix and he has a camera on the table and paints, he must be doing a photography project as well as painting.
"what kind of stuff do you like to draw?" he asks me whilst setting up his paints.
"i usually draw faces or features, as well as hmm how do i say, scary faces? i like to create my own creatures sometimes like aliens or monsters" i say tapping my pen
"woahhh that sounds wicked" felix says smiling at me
"what do you usually do?" i ask
"i like to take pictures of the city, the buildings mostly and then draw or paint them" he says showing me some of his pictures on his camera
"these are so good!" i say pointing at his pictures "i love the colours you use when you paint, so pretty" i smile and start sketching out my first drawing. people started to walk in and sit down over the next half an hour, it wasn't a teacher led class so students would just sit down and start drawing or painting. me and felix would chat every 10 minutes or so and then we'd stay quiet to focus on our art. it turns 7 and a couple people start to leave the classroom, i look up at felix to see him still painting, i decide to close my sketchbook and move to the seat next to him and watch over him working.
"i really like your art style" i mumble resting my head on my hand, he smiles and breaths a little louder out of his nose "thanks y/n" he turns to me "you know i'd be happy to give you one of my pictures next class, and you can try it out yourself and paint like i do" he says smiling and looking back at his painting, my eyes go wide
"you know that sounds fun" i say excitedly, he pokes my arm and starts clearing away, i check my phone and see text messages from namjoon
namjoon
- hey how was art class? :)
- do you want me to pick you up now ?
i reply
- hii, it was really good thanks :)) and yes pleaseeee
i put my phone in my pocket and pick up my bag
"have you got a ride home?" i ask felix whilst we walk out together
"yeah i drive myself, why do you need me to drive you home?" he says with his eyebrows raised
"oh no it's okay, thank you though, namjoon is on his way" i smile widely
"ah maybe next time" he laughs, he walks towards his car and waves goodbye, it's a little dark now so i wait next to the street lamp and see namjoons car pull in, i smile and get into the car.
"hey y/n, were you waiting long" he looks at me worried
"no i was only out there for a couple minutes" i smile reassuring him, he nods and drives on.
