Moira (Ateez AU)

Chapter Fifty-Eight

     "Can you please put me down!" You whined. Pushing against his back. You were currently being carried over the shoulder of Chan to the football field. It was lunch and you'd been avoiding all your friends. Yeosang had told Taehyun about you wanting to move to the next step, so instead of telling them anything you hid.

    "No. I was given strict orders to come and get you." Chan laughed out. You glared at Yeonjun, Soobin, and Jeongin. They seriously sent the vampires to find you hiding in the cafeteria.

    "Did all four of you seriously need to find me? Can I please walk." You complained, Chan simply jumped to make you shut up. You screamed and wrapped your arms around his waist as your face hid in the middle of his back.

     You didn't know how long you were like that, but you could hear the other three making fun of you. You felt Chan stop moving and when he went to go put you down you panicked, immediately tightening your grip around his waist with a 'no!'. You heard laughing and slowly looked up. You saw your mates looking at you amused with raised eyebrows.

     "You're all assholes." You mutter as Chan finally puts you down. You stumble a bit and grab Jeongin's arm as you get balanced.

    "Why did I have to be kidnapped. I was enjoying my alone time watching as everyone around me kept trying to subtly look at me. You should hear some of the rumors." You remark. You got a slap in the back of the head from Jeongin and whined. You glared at him and moved away while he grinned at you.

    "Because you're trying to hide from the fact you're getting basically married?" Minho says. You glare at said male.

    "Because I didn't want Tae, Gyu, Kai, Lix, and Innie to bombard me with questions and requests on picking my dress for the ceremonies." You retort.

     "But Cub! It's a big deal!" Kai whined. You simply moved to sit between Seonghwa and Jongho, leaning on Jongho's shoulder as you held Seonghwa's hand.

   "I never claimed it wasn't." You point out. You didn't want them to think that you weren't excited, you were.

    "Then why don't you wanna talk about it? Most girls your age doing these things are freaking out with excitement." Changbin pointed out.

    "Changbin is right, princess." Hyunjin softly agrees. You look down and fidget with Seonghwa's fingers.

    "I am excited but I don't wanna let myself get overwhelmed and stressed either. So trying to act like it's not as big of a deal as it truly is, is my way of keeping myself calm." You mumble. Jongho wraps his arm around you and kisses your forehead while Seonghwa intertwines your fingers and squeezes your hand.

     "Baby, we know you're excited and planning is gonna be stressful. It's okay. You're allowed to keep yourself calm. But let yourself have fun with it too." Yunho says, reaching over Seonghwa and gently squeezing your thigh before moving back.

     "You guys wanna go dress shopping tomorrow? You can come over at noon and we can hang out and go look at dresses." You ask your most hyperactive friends. You and the guys agreed on a wine red or royal blue colour theme depending on what dresses you found. Black was also allowed for your dress but the colours of the ceremony itself would be red or blue. However for your ceremony with Wooyoung and Yeosang you had agreed anything bright was allowed.

     "Why do we have to wait until tomorrow." Beomgyu whined. You giggle and look at him with a soft smile.

     "Because tonight we're planning other things out since we have the ceremony next weekend." You retort. He pauses and nods on it being fair.
