One week left for the Talent Show

There was one week left for the talent show and that meant one week left for my so called date with Namjoon.

Don't get me wrong. I am so excited and anxious, but I don't know what to wear for this talent show. I've never been on a date before. I'll probably just call Haru and ask her. She is older, she's probably been on a date before.

I was about to call her when she called me.

"Hello?" I spoke into the phone.

"Hello, Jenny?"

"Yes, this is Jenny, your only friend." I replied.

"Oh, ok, good. I need you to baby sit a week from now." She spoke fast.

"Ugh! But I can't. I'm finally going to social event. Don't take this away from me!" I whined into the phone.

"Oooooo. What kind of social event is this?" She asked full of curiosity and a hint of impressed in her voice.

"It's actually a talent show, Namjoon invited me to accompany him." I had told her about Namjoon. Why wouldn't I? She's one of my only friends.

"Oh and what are you going to wear to this Talent show?"

"I don't know, I was actually going to ask you that", I explained.

"Come over sometime from here to next week and we'll find you something to wear." She said to me.

"Ok. Thank you, Haru! But what about your kid? Don't you still need a baby sitter?"

"I'll find someone, don't worry." She assured me.

Can't wait for this Talent Show!

Next Day at Haru's House

"What type of clothes does Namjoon like on a girl?" Haru asked while looking into her closet.

"I don't know, I haven't stocked him that much" I said with a shrug.

"Do you even have clothes that fit me?" I spoke up again.

"Are you calling me fat?" She asked as she snapped her head at me.

"Nooo... just... you know, you still haven't lost all the weight from your pregnancy, yet." I quietly said.

"I had a baby a full year ago! I have lost 15 pounds in total. That is more than the weight from my pregnancy!" She stated.

"Well ok. So-rry" I apologized to her.

"I don't think I have anything that suits your tastes, let's go to the mall. We'll be sure to find you something there." She proposed the idea.

"Sure let's go, but I only have ten dollars." I said to her.

"You can't get anything with ten dollars." She said as she hesitated to continue. "I'll just pay for it."

"Thank youuu!" I said to her excitedly.

At the Mall

Me and Haru went from store to store and only got a new pair of converse. We  only had two stores left and one hour before the mall closed. We needed to find something quick.

"Can't you just make up your mind and choose something?" Haru asked. She was exhausted from all the walking around.

"No, it can't be just anything. It has to be perfect." I reasoned.

"You're young. Everything looks good on young people."

"Not true. I don't look good in yellow."

Haru sighed before answering. "No one looks good in yellow, it's just that bad of a color."

I looked at her outfit which was a yellow tank top and black shorts. Mhm no one looks good in yellow, alright. "But you're wearing yellow"

"Just shut up and choose something already" she said, annoyed.

In Jenny's House

I got back from the mall and I bought a whole new outfit to wear with Namjoon.

Maybe I'm looking too much into this. He's probably going to ditch me last minute. At least I got new clothes without having to pay.

I tried on the black and white dress. To be completely honest, it looked really nice. It was fitted around the bust and got loose around the waist. Would this be too much for a talent show?

Who knows maybe he'll like it. Maybe he'll even compliment me.

Haha. Only in my dreams.

Namjoon's Perspective

"CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!"

"OH MY GOD! WILL YOU SHUT UP ALREADY?!?"

Why am I friends with such idiots? They have been chugging alcohol all night. That's right, underage drinking. The worst part is, they're doing it my apartment. Jungkook's parents went on a trip and they do this in my apartment?!? How does that even make sense?

"Nah, we still have three bottles left." Said Hoseok, while he walked towards the coach. His words were slurred together and he couldn't even walk in a straight line.

"Disgusting" I muttered while getting up and grabbing my jacket. I need to get away from this.

I walked out and breathed in the fresh air. It was already twelve thirty in the morning. I walked towards a cafe that happened to be open at this late hour. I ordered a coffee and walked to a near by park.

Six more days until the talent show. I can't wait. I wonder what she'll wear. I wonder what I'll wear.

I had no particular set of clothing that would come to mind. What exactly could I wear? And I can't just go shopping, I'm bad when it comes to picking clothes. I'll just have to get help from Jin or something.

Six more days. Just six more days. Should I get her a gift? Should I take her somewhere afterwards? Ugh, life is so hard these days.

What if I get her a gift and she doesn't like it? What if she just bails on me last minute? There's so much to think about.
