The One and Only

1. The Archangel

"Please Rai?" Chloe pleaded.

Raina rolled her eyes at her best friends puppy dog eyes. "You know that doesn't work on me."

Chloe huffed. "I don't get you! What girl wouldn't want to go to the hottest club in New York City and attend a private BTS concert?"

"I don't even know who they are. And besides," Raina's lips curled in disgust, "I hate famous people. They all think their better than the average person just because they happen to sing good and are attractive."

"Oh come on! They're not like that!"

Raina raised an eyebrow. "And you know that how?"

"The internet," Chloe started but got cut off by Raina's laughter.

"Give me a break Clo. You can't believe everything you read online."

"I didn't want to have to do this," Chloe said slowly, "but you leave me no choice."

Raina's brow furrowed as she raked her brain for anything that Chloe could use against her.

"If you don't come with me tonight, then I'm going to tell my brother that you want to start dating him again."

Raina gasped. "You wouldn't!"

"I will if I have to," Chloe said firmly.

Last year Chloe thought it would be a a good idea if her best friend and brother started dating. Adam was a nice guy at first. He was handsome, his golden hair always curling softly around his ears. But that was where the good things ended. By their second date he was already planning their wedding. Raina couldn't imagine getting married anytime soon, so she had thought it best to call things off. But boy, was that guy persistent. He wouldn't leave Raina alone. It even came to the point where she had to threaten going to the police. Definitely not a romance she was looking to rekindle.

"Ughhh, I hate you." Raina glared at Chloe.

"You're the best!" Chloe practically jumped into Raina's arms and hugged her tight.

Raina rolled her eyes and hugged her friend back.

"Dad said that the concert will start at 9:30, so be there by 9:00."

"Yes ma'am," Raina said saluting Chloe.

"Seriously Rai, don't be late. My dad make any exceptions."

Chloe's dad, Dante Billow, was the owner of the hottest club in New York. People lined up at it's doors every night, just trying to get a glimpse inside the lavish place. Raina supposed she should be grateful that her friendship with Chloe gave her the privilege of going to the club whenever she wanted.

"Don't worry Clo. I won't be," Raina assured her.

Chloe's face lit up and she hugged Raina one last time.

"See you tonight!" She sung as she skipped away.

Raina laughed and shook her head. It was impossible to say no to that girl.

Raina walked up the few remaining steps leading to her duplex and unlocked the door.

5:30.

That gave her three and a half hours. Plenty of time.

For the next two hours Raina busied herself with cleaning up the duplex. It was trashed after her little get together last night. Wiping away the last speck of dirt on the floor, she sighed to herself.

7:30.

I should probably get ready now, Raina thought. She took a quick shower and then began rummaging through her closet for the perfect outfit.
