[yoongi's pov:]

i stood there nervously as i scratched the back of my neck slightly.

"do you want to go the formal dance with me?" i blankly asked.

"yah! you can't just ask in a monotone voice like that? you must do it in a seductive kind of feeling," namjoon said.

i looked at him weirdly.

"namjoonie's right. you sound too bland as if you don't mean it," taehyung added.

i sighed, slightly annoyed. "then how do i ask without sounding so bland??"

"i told you. do it in a sexy and lively manner. i'll show you. yah, hoseok! pretend you're soojin," namjoon said.

i let him take the floor as i sat in a chair and watched them.

before namjoon spoke, he changed his pitched into a "sexy" type of style.

"soojinnie... go to the dance with me," namjoon purred. i scrunched my face furrowing my eyebrows as i slightly gagged.

"omo, oppar! i'd love to go with you to the formal dance," hoseok cheered in a girly voice as he jumped onto namjoon wrapping his arms around his neck.

"yah, yah! you both are so ugly," i said pinching my nose bridge as i shook my head.

"no, that's not how you ask her," taehyung said shaking his head in disapproval.

"then how would you ask her?" namjoon argued.

"like this."

taehyun stood in front of me staring me directly.

"soojin-ah.. do you maybe want to go to the formal dance with me?" taehyung asked in a low voice, adding a wink at the end.

"yuck, i'm going to barf," hoseok said rubbing at his throat.

i sighed softly, "this is hopeless."

"yah, just ask her. the worst she can do is say no," namjoon said.

i groaned as i sat back in my chair. "i guess, i'll just go for it, right?" i mumbled.

"yes. just go for it. you'll do great hyung," taehyung sat patting my back.

i turned to the front of the class as swiftly ran my fingers through my hair.

"alright."

[soojin's pov:]

i spent an hour in the restroom and i haven't left ever since the incident. the bell suddenly rang for dismissal, so i waited until the sound of feet outside the door had stopped.

when all was clear, i slowly unlocked the stall door and walked towards the mirror. the redness and puffiness slightly went away in my eyes. i sniffled softly and quickly washed my face before leaving the girls restroom.

i walked back to my homeroom class only to see it empty. my things were still scattered on the floor. so i walked over and bent down to pick up the pieces of paper and journals laying around.

just then, i heard someone come in as i looked up and saw yoongi. when he saw me, he rushed over to me and saw me picking up my things.

"yah, what happened?" he asked.

i avoided eye contact and continued picking up my belongings. "uh, i just triped and fell. so i'm picking my stuff up," i softly said. he bent down as well and started to grab all the pens and pencils he could find, especially my wallet.

he handed them to me as we both stood up to our feet. my eyes met his eyes and he gave me a small smile.

"thanks," i softly managed to say to him. i grabbed my backpack and tried neatly organizing my things into it. i didn't say another word to him. when i finished, i zipped up my backpack.

"i was thinking, i could walk you home... maybe. that's only if you want me to," he fumbled with his words slightly.

i couldn't help but give a smile and nodded my head. "i don't mind."

he smiled and also gave a small nod. and so we left the campus and then walked all the way to my house. i didn't dare tell him what had happened earlier, so i kept my mouth shut.

just up ahead a few blocks, we approached my house and before i knew it, we were standing slightly close to the front door. i turned around to meet his face. he had both straps on his shoulders this time instead of it hanging on one shoulder.

"thanks for walking me," i softly said to him.

"uh, yeah, you're welcome."

we both awkwardly stood there until he suddenly cleared his throat.

"soojin?" he began to say.

"mm?"

"uh, so there's the formal dance next week..."

"oh... yeah," i softly said remembering the event.

"do you maybe want to go with me... to the dance?"

"you mean, like, be your partner?" i asked softly, my cheeks slightly turning pink.

"yeah. i don't know if it's a lot to ask for. it's just taehyung kept telling me you were going alone," he began to say.

aish, taehyung.

"oh," i chuckled nervously, "y-yeah."

"so... do you want to go with me?" he asked once more.

my heart began to beat faster. is this finally it?

pursing my lips slightly, i licked them before i spoke.

"yeah. i'll go with you."
