It's midnight on a Wednesday and I'm being dragged out to a concert in an underground bar by my friend. It's raining and we're traveling by foot, as I splash into puddles, I can feel my jeans getting soaked. I'm trying really hard not to stumble as Jen holds onto my hand pulling me harder and harder with each passing moment.
"We're going to be late!" she exclaims.
"I'm trying, but these heels aren't helping," I retort, annoyance in my voice.
"We're almost there, just a little more, okay?" she reassures, squeezing my hand.Today marks the much-anticipated comeback of her boyfriend's band after a hiatus caused by their drummer's overseas journey. My busy schedule had always clashed with their previous concerts, making this my first time attending. The excitement bubbles within me as I look forward to experiencing the energy of the band's performance and finally being part of the concert atmosphere.
I start to see lights up ahead and a crowd of people waiting to be let in. The venue isn't easy to find but it's packed to the brim. Jen starts pushing her way through the crowd of people as I follow behind. We finally make it to the front as the lights suddenly turn off, and then I hear a guitar start to play. A spotlight hits the source of the sound. I freeze, standing before me is a man with dark features, light skin, and broad shoulders. I grab Jen and ask her who that is." Oh, that's Min, I'm surprised you don't know him he's popular in our university."
I can't tear my eyes off of him. Everything about him is drawing me in. The way he delicately plays his guitar, how everything but his face is covered in tattoos, and how handsome he is. A flash of lights goes off and his band joins him, but I'm only focused on him. The band plays through there set and we start to head to the back. We met up with Jen's boyfriend and the others. It's lively everyone's excited because the crowd couldn't get enough of them.
As I stand there talking to Jen and Tate my eyes are scanning the room, but I can't seem to find what I'm searching for. Maybe he felt tired and decided to leave right after playing. Suddenly I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn my head to see a brown haired boy with green eyes smiling at me." Yoon" I scream with a smile on my face. He embraces me and twirls me around.
" What are you doing here Rayra" he says while letting me down.
" I came with a friend to see her boyfriend's band, why didn't you tell me you'd Joined a band" I say pushing his shoulder playfully.
" Well, well, well, do I have to tell you everything I do" smirking.Yoon is my childhood friend. We've been attached to the hip since we were in diapers, he has always been there through the worst of time and best.
"Well, I don't but joining a band is kind of something you tell someone! I'll let it slide this time, but have you performed already."
"Rayra are you serious..." he says crossing his arms.
"Yeah, I want see you perform, so have you, or haven't you?"
"You're serious right now... I just played with Osiris, did you not see me, I even had a solo, I was the drummer."I blushed, I was too infatuated by the guitarist to even notice my childhood best friend performing right in front of me. I didn't know how to respond, I was stuck and embarrassed, luckily Jen saved the day by interrupting demanding we celebrate. By celebrating she meant going out and getting wasted until we didn't even know or own names.
"Unfortunately, it is a Wednesday and I have an 8 am tomorrow" I say with a frown.
"Not fair, you always do this ray, you always leave when the party is about to start" she says whining.
"I know, I'm sorry but I'll make it up to you I promise" kissing my thumb and sticking out my pinky. She grabs my finger with hers and makes a pouting face.
"Okay, you promised" Jen says as she pulls me in for a hug goodbye.I look back to Yoon giving him a shrug and hugging him goodbye. As I walk out of the bar it begins to pour. "Just my luck" I exhale. As I sprint through the streets of New York my clothe becoming more and more wet. Finally I made it to the subway, it's quiet. I sit in the empty cart my clothe dripping, I shut my eyes and a smile begins to from, just thinking about him makes me have butterflies. I start to hum out of joy and of how great this all is when I hear and low pitch voice.
" I saw you at the show tonight, seems like you couldn't keep your eyes off of me."
