"Are you coming to the after party?" asked Jennie.
"Oh, Uh, sure," I said.
"Great!"
I got into her car and we drove to the party.
She went off with Taehyung while I stayed back with Jimin. She was all over him.
"Have you ever even kissed a girl?" Jimin interrupted my staring.
"Oh, no," I replied.
"You should get on with that," he said.
"Working on it," I said while looking at Jennie.
"No, you need to find a girl who's gay and single," he said.
"Do you think Jennie likes girls too?"
"She might be bi," he said, "but she's also in a full blown relationship."
"Yeah, don't remind me."
"You should just move on," he said.
"I can't," I said.
"Only until she's single," he said, "find someone to take your mind off things, experience new things."
"So you're saying I should just hook up with a bunch of girls until Jennie is single? And then what?"
He chuckled, "then you make your move on her."
"Fine, if you can find me a girl, then I'll do it."
"Deal."

"Homecoming was so much fun!" Jennie sang at school on Monday.
"Yeah, it sure was," I said.
"So, what did you think of Jimin?" she asked.
"He's cool; I like him as a friend."
"Oh come on, he's so hot, you have got to date him!"
"I think we're better off as friends," I said with a shrug.
"Roseanne, I've never seen you date a guy before. It's senior year, it's about time you have a boyfriend," she said.
Maybe I want a girlfriend, I thought. But I just didn't say anything at all.

"Do you guys wanna go to a Halloween party?" I asked my friends during lunch.
"Can't," Jennie said, "I'm going to the cider mill and then a haunted house with Taehyung."
"I, on the other hand, am so down to party," said Jisoo.
"Great," I said, "I'll ask Jimin too."
"Ask Jimin what?" he asked as he sat down at our table. He doesn't always sit with us but sometimes he joins us.
"Any plans for Halloween?" I asked.
"No, why?"
"Let's go to a party," I said.
"Hell yeah," he said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was Halloween. I threw on all black clothes and my lace cat ears. Simple, but cute.
I waited for Jimin and Jisoo to show up so that we could all drive together.
Jisoo came over with a bunny costume; Jimin just wore a skeleton shirt.
"Nice costumes," i said.
"You too," said Jimin.
"Ready to go?" asked Jisoo.
