"Now, sunflower, you're gonna clean yourself up." you nod again and the ends of his mouth quirk at that. "You will go out and smile. Maybe laugh a little too. It's your sister's wedding, darling. Cheer up. It's supposed to be fun."

You shiver at his latest words and you almost tremble. You try to not let it show. How his wording of choice affected you, how you physically revolted at them. But Jimin sees right through you. He always did.

He smiles once again, his fingers gently caressing your face.

"Always so pretty when you cry." He murmurs softly, his gaze focusing on your face and then it goes lower, stopping at your lips."See you out there, sunflower. Don't forget you still owe me a dance." and with that he leaves.

You drank too much. You regret it deeply and now you're sleepy. Your eyes threaten to close every five minutes, it's annoying really, trying to keep yourself awake. You have to pinch yourself or dig your nails into your skin, maybe a little pain will wake you up. So you do, you pinch and dig until there's a red spot on your arm, until it burns.

You don't stop until you see Sunhee coming your way, her arm entangled with Taehyung's. You stiffen a little.

"You need a bed, immediately." Says your friend sweetly while she runs her hand through your hair.

She looks at you with so much pity. And you hate it. You know Sunhee truly cares about you, too much, sometimes you feel like a burden. Always by your side, always wiping your tears, always defending you. Sunhee deserved a friend, not someone who needed to be babysat.

She continues to touch you, patting your head lovingly and you don't miss the way Taehyung eyes her hand, dark orbs observing every movement, the way his hand tightens on her waist, making her stumble back a little, her hand no longer close to reach you.

"You're messing up her hair, honey. You don't want Y/N's head to end up looking like a bird nest, do you?" he tells her with a playful smile, making Sunhee laugh.

She pokes him on the stomach funnily, making him laugh too, but to your ears it doesn't sound as truthful.

"You're right, you're right. Sorry Y/nie." She says with a cheeky smile and then proceeds to peck her boyfriend's lips. "I'm gonna get more wine. Do you want some?" Taehyung declines and then Sunhee Looks at you. "Y/N?"

Once again you feel those eyes on you. They're so heavy. so intense that it makes you breathless. You shake your head and Sunhee nods. "Alright. i'll be right back."

When Sunhee leaves, the room feels smaller. Suffocating . You wish you could disappear, you wish you could be invisible. You just wanted to be left alone. Before you knew it, that same perfume invades your senses. He's so close but you don't dare to look up.

"Look at me."
