It's your senior year of high school. You're excited because prom is only a couple weeks away. But at the same time you're anxious for prom because your female friends already have prom dates while you're still planning to go alone. One day during lunch you're sitting with Soonyoung, your best friend, complaining about not being invited to prom yet. You whine that maybe you'll just have to go alone. Wonwoo is also quietly sitting with the two of you at the lunch table as the three of you usually do.

Wonwoo is your seat mate in class that you've known for a couple years now and he just so happens to be Soonyoung's other best friend. He's always been the quiet type, doesn't interact in class much but joins you and Soonyoung whenever you get together. Occasionally you and Wonwoo study one on one, or more like Wonwoo tutors you in math since you're horrible at it. As you're complaining to Soonyoung about being alone for the prom you both noticed Wonwoo clear his throat and sit up straighter in his seat. You opened your mouth to say something when Soonyoung spoke up first.

"Wanna go to the prom with me?" He asked you cutely, raising his hands up to his face.

You laughed while he purposely fluttered his eyelashes at you. You both knew what he was doing. He was trying to make you feel better and it was working.

"Only if no one else asks me before prom night." You chuckled.

"Deal." Soonyoung agreed to your terms.

Wonwoo didn't say anything or make any strange movements after that. The three of you continued eating your lunches. A few minutes later someone unexpected walked up to your table. He stood right next to you, looking down at you with his hands behind his back. You glanced over at Soonyoung whose eyes were glued to the person's back. Your eyes slowly raised to gaze at who was standing next to you. And to your amazement it was Mingyu.

You exchanged looks with Soonyoung briefly, him flicking his eyes at Mingyu's back as if trying to tell you something. You swallowed the rice in your mouth.

"Hi Mingyu."

"Hey yn. Can I ask you something?"

Soonyoung slowly placed his silverware down on the table and rested his elbows on the table with his clasped hands against his lips. You were confused momentarily until Mingyu moved his hands from behind his back to reveal a heart shaped box in his left hand a red rose in the right. Your eyes widened in surprise. Your left hand covered your mouth as your eyes met Mingyu's once more.

"Will you go to the prom with me?" Mingyu asked with a smile on his face.

You nodded yes and accepted Mingyu's gifts, trying your best to hold back your excitement. Not only were you finally asked to the prom but it was Mingyu of all people. He's one of the most popular guys in school and you had no idea why he'd ask you of all people to be his date to the prom. But in the moment you didn't care because all you wanted was to not go alone.

You hopped out of your seat and gave Mingyu a hug. You and Soonyoung watched Mingyu walk away with his friends. You were practically mesmerized by Mingyu's biceps that were hardly concealed by the short-sleeved shirt he was wearing. When he was out of view you looked down at the rose and chocolates on the cafeteria table. You hovered your arm up and across the table, your hand in Soonyoung's direction.

"Wow...that was incredible." Soonyoung shook his head in disbelief.

"Pinch me, I must be dreaming." You said.

And he obliged; the pinch to your arm sent sharp pain all the way through your arm. You winced and Soonyoung cackled. Wonwoo stayed silent and finished his lunch before you and Soonyoung did. He quickly stood up, dumped his tray and left the cafeteria without ever saying a word. It was odd behavior for Wonwoo since he always stayed at the table even when he was done eating so he could walk back to class with you, since he's your seat mate.
