" Almost done. " My mom says as she finishes putting my makeup on.
" Tae will be here soon." I say looking at the clock behind her. Hopefully, she gets the point that I want her to stop. Like right now.
" Well, I'm done. NOW TIME FOR PICTURES! " She sings as she goes to fetch her camera. She is more excited than I am. Dances aren't really my thing,fortunately for me Taehyung loves them. What kind of friend would I be if I don't join him. I hear the doorbell ring. Then again. and again.
"Well god damn, I'm coming." As I walk towards the door, I grab an empty water bottle. He's still ringing my doorbell. I hesitate before opening the door. I'm planing my attack. Once I unlock the door, It was pushed open. He walks right past me and turns to look at me.His eyes drop to the water bottle.
"Prom is less than one hour. And you're playing around?!?
Aish." He turns back around and goes to my kitchen and scans the fridge for snacks.I try to throw the water bottle at Tae but of course I miss.So I go upstairs and put on my dress. It's a royal blue color. The top is an exquisite glitter lace banded figure flattering bodice. It's a fitted floor length skirt that's cascading and pooling to create a small train features dramatic slit on the side.
Once I put it on, I take a quick glance at the mirror.
" Well here goes nothing " I smile.
I head back downstairs but my mom stops me.
"WAIT! TAE COME HERE AND STAND NEXT To HER" My mom yelled, really loudly.
Tae does as he is told and stands next to me. We pose for the picture.
" You look dashing. " He whispers as we wait for my mom to get more batteries for the camera.
I blush.
"Thanks" I'm avoiding eye contact with him. I glance at my feet, but I feel his eyes on me.
"But when you smile at the ground, It ain't hard to tell,
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know your beautiful."
He starts to sing then loses control. He's starts dancing like a crazy person. He stops and asks for my hand. I shake my head but he wont take no for answer. He grabs my wrist and pulls me toward him."Come on, please dance." He says as he shakes his body awkwardly. He continues to sing 'What makes you beautiful' off key. I smile and dance with him.
"THAT'S WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL" We scream as if the song were a sceamo.
I'm out of breath. This is the most exercise I've done in weeks.I hear Tae's phone go off. He takes out his phone and answers it.
"hello?"
"ah ha"
"now?"
"ok." He hangs up the phone.
"Shall we, my lady?" He holds out his hand for me to grab, which I do.
We interlace fingers as we walk out the house and into the limo that was waiting outside.
"You didn't have to spend money for the limo, We could have taken my mom's car " I say looking around. It's so fancy.
"Nonsense...stuff like this are meant to be remembered." He says, as he looks through his phone songs to play. I look at him and study his face. How lucky I was to have him.
" YES!it finally downloaded ! " He presses play and starts moving to the beat as soon as it starts with a huge grin. Then he starts singing, surprisingly well.
