The Growing of Hearts (A BTS & EXO Fanfiction)

Chapter 2: Getting Ready

"OH MY GOSHHHHH YOU'RE GOING ON A DATE WITH THAT GALAXY MAN!?!? OMG GET ITTTT!"

Merci groans out loud and reaches over the bed to punch the younger one.

"No. Stop," she says in a dead pan voice as she continues looking through her clothes for something to wear. Katie rubs her now sore arm with a pout set on her lips.

"Aish... No need to get violent now..." she mutters as she falls on to the bed on her back. Merci continues to look through the closet until she finds a baby blue dress that she's bought a while ago for some special occasion that she'd come across in the future, i.e. now.

"I guess this'll do..." Merci mumbles, tossing it on to the bed. Suddenly, she remembers something that makes her groan once more out loud in annoyance.

"OH MY GODS!" Merci yells out angrily as she snatches her phone off of the dresser. Katie rolls over on the bed and rests her chin on her hands. She watches silently as Merci swipes quite roughly across her phone several times before finally bringing it up to her ear. About three audible rings later, a deep 'hello' is heard.

"Yeah, sorry but I can't make it tonight," Merci says as she shifts her weight onto her hip and leans against the dresser. "I'M SORRY, you're so dramatic! You'll survive!"

Merci rolls her eyes, exasperated until they land on her younger friend who is curiously watching her. An idea pops into her head now.

"Hey, you still have the two tickets right?" Merci asks, swinging her foot back and forth in front of her. "Okay, you're going to go with my friend... You'll see who it is when the movie's about to start!" Merci paused as the mystery person replied. "I'M NOT GOING TO SEND A PEDOPHILE JEON JUNGKOOK, GODS WHO DO YOU THINK I AM?? You are going with her and that's final! Have fun child."

With that, Merci hangs up the phone. She turns and looks at Katie.

"You're going to the movies with my friend," she states directly as she picks her dress up and goes to the restroom to change. Katie stares after her and just rolls her eyes.

"Okay," she says nonchalantly. "Who is it?"

"You'll see when you get to the movies~" Merci's voice rings out. Katie groans but doesn't complain. After all, the younger would rather be out doing something then being stuck in the apartment waiting for Merci to get back from her date. She gets up and goes to the closet where she takes out an oversize beige sweater along with black leggings and knee high brown boots. She dresses herself quickly, heats up her curling iron and takes out a few makeup items.

"Merciii, I'm doing your hair and makeup!" Katie yells out as she grabs a clear elastic, ready to braid her friend's mess of hair.

"NO!" Merci immediately says as she walks out all dressed. "You can do my hair, but no makeup!"

Katie rolls her eyes.

"You're going on a date woman, not to a barbeque restaurant," she says. "It doesn't hurt to doll yourself up sometimes for something special."

Merci takes the younger's words into consideration.

"What the hell, just don't overdo it," Merci says, sitting herself down on to the bed. After Katie finishes curling her own hair, which ends in the middle of her back and is a deep midnight color, and finishes up her makeup (just a coat of mascara and light pink lip gloss), she gets to work on the elder. Katie pins Merci's long dirty blonde hair up into a messy bun. Katie smiles as she begins to work on Merci's makeup.

After all, she doesn't usually get to do this.

All Katie does is put mascara and eyeliner on Merci. She takes out a tube of red lipstick that she claims is tinted lip balm to the elder who immediately refused to have it put on her. After she hears it's 'lip balm' Merci gives the younger the okay to apply it on her.

Finally after both girls finish getting ready, they get ready to leave. Merci gives Katie a description of Jungkook so she'll be able to find him.

"You sure you're going to be okay by yourself getting there?" Merci questions as she pulls on her faded blue converse. Katie gives a wave to her from in front of the mirror.

"I'll be fine!" she answers as she ruffles her hair up to look a bit more messy. "Make sure to bring a jacket, it's going to be a little chilly tonight." Merci nods and goes to the closet to take out her trusty black leather jacket.

"EEEEEEEEEEEE!" Katie suddenly squeals, causing the elder to jump in surprise. "MY UNNI IS GOING ON A DAAAAATE!!!"

Merci groans for probably the millionth time tonight as she shrugs the jacket on.

"Woman it's not that big of a deal!" she yells out, but suppressing her smile. An audible dramatic gasp comes from the younger.

"What are you talking about!?" Katie exclaims. "You've NEVER been on a date let alone had a boyfriend!"

"Shush! Like I said, it's not that big of a deal..."

About five minutes later, the girls are out of their apartments. Both girls wave bye to one another as they head off in different directions of the sidewalk. Katie walks to the theatre Merci told her about and arrives. She walks in, purchases a ticket for "Titanic" and looks around for the boy Merci had described. He supposedly had black hair that swooped across his forehead and brown eyes with a sort of larger nose. She looks around until she finds a boy that fits the description and goes up to him. The boy widens his eyes at the girl, in shock of her beautiful appearance.

Katie looked him over and saw that he was wearing a dark green beanie, a red plaid button down open with a black shirt underneath, and black slightly loose skinny jeans.

"Excuse me." Katie approaches him getting his attention. "Are you Jeon Jungkook?"

The boy replies to the name with a nod. "Are you Merci's friend?"

The girl replies with a hum and a nod of her head. "It's nice to meet you!"

"It's nice to meet you, too."

The two then stood there in awkward silence as people passed to get to their movie.

"So... I got the popcorn and a KitKat for you. Uhh, let's head inside now shall we?"

Meanwhile, Merci takes out her phone and finds her way to the street address that Kris had texted her. She eventually reaches the house in ten minutes. Butterflies race through her tummy while she becomes slightly light headed.

'What am I doing...?' she thinks as she rings the doorbell. Taking a deep breathe, she waits in suspense for the door to open. She jumps in spite of herself when it does. Kris emerges and Merci's breathe hitches slightly. Kris was dressed in a royal blue colored button down with dark wash jeans. His hair was still a light blonde color which was messily styled.

When Kris sees Merci, he immediately plasters a pleased smile/smirk on his face. His eyes roam from her hair down to her toes, taking his time which makes Merci self-conscious. She shifts, both uncomfortable and flattered.

"You look beautiful," Kris eventually says in a low deep voice. "I'm glad that you made it here safely."

Merci blushes, looking down at her faded converse.

"T-Thanks..." she murmurs shyly with a small smile. Kris chuckles at the girl and walks up to her. Merci gasps softly as he stands directly in front of her, then gently grabs her hands. He bends his head down so that his lips brush past Merci's ears.

"Let's go inside before the food gets cold," Kris whispers.
