Magic Hope

I can't

I slowly look up. There are two beautiful men standing in front of me. Both have very smooth and glowing skin. One has greyish hair, looks tall and has a model-like figure. Well, everything down here looks pretty big and tall. He has a pretty heart-shaped face. He looks pretty cute. He smiles at me. When he smiles, I see his dimples popping out. Man, he is very cute. I look at the other one and... it is...

"Hello babe" he says. "I am J-hope, nice to meet you".

He reaches out his hand. Without any words, but looking all shocked I grab his hand and he pulls me up. Even standing straight, they look so tall. I mean, I am 1.70 after all. I look at J-hope. This is the guy who I immediately could not get my eyes off at the beginning of the show. He is the guy with the reddish hair, only his hair now looks lighter than before. He is ---

"This is Namjoon or as people would like to call him, Rap monster".

J-hope laughs and the other guy slaps him. "Can you please stop saying that? You know it is not Rap Monster anymore. It is RM."

I laugh. My body is all frozen, afraid to make a move. J-hope even looks even better up close. His face is a little longer and wider than RM's face. He as well has dimples when he smiles, although there is something about him. Whenever he smiles, he looks like sunshine.

I notice J-hope turning his head towards me.

"Did you perhaps listen to our conversation?" J-hope asks with a serious look.

Shit, what should I do? Should I say that I indeed heard everything and I know they were talking about me or should I just pretend I did not hear anything because I have a bad hearing? Think Y/N, think!

"Euhm... I-I don't know what you are talking about." said I and start to blush. My whole face is boiling. "My mom called me to tell me I need to come home"

What the hell Y/N? "Your mom called you??" My god, how old are you? Why are you so stupid?!

I hear the two boys laugh. Great, you have ruined your first impression already. Congratulations Y/N, you totally embarrassed yourself. Where is my coffin, so that I can bury myself to avoid any further humiliations?

"I think it is very cute" says J-hope with a smirk.

Did he just say that my excuse is cute?

"T-thanks I-I guess?" said I awkwardly.

"However.." he paused. I see him walking towards the door and blocking the exit. "I know this was an excuse. Therefore, we cannot let you go so easily".

My heart is beating faster than ever. What is he talking about?

"Hyung, are you going to kidnap her?" asks RM shocked. "There is no 'we' or 'we will kidnap her'. I am not part of any of your crazy ideas man. I am too innocent to go to jail!"

"What are you thinking? I am not going to hurt her or anything" J-hope laughs and hits RM's shoulder. RM laughs nervously.

"Oh and you are NOT innocent at all. Remember the time when you wrote --"

RM eyes widely open and start to hit J-hope even harder than before. They start to fight a bit.

"Back to the topic" says J-hope after finishing battling against RM. "I don't want to kidnap her or anything. I want to ask the lady out".

I see J-hope looking straight to my eyes. His brown eyes look so beautiful. I want to swim in his chocolate eyes and never come back again. But wait.. did he just... ask me out?

"So what do you say? Would you like to have a drink with me?"

My thoughts are going crazy. My body says yes take me into your chocolate paradise and we will be living happily ever after, but my mind.. my mind says: "no don't do this. You still have feelings for your ex-boyfriend". All the mess is coming all together. Why is it so difficult to answer his question? He looks charming, cute and is showing interest in me. Just say yes Y/N!

"I-I can't"

My mind takes over me.

"I just came out of a relationship and I am still trying to find myself".

His face changes immediately. There wasn't any shine in his eyes when he smiles. He didn't say anything. One look in his eyes told me everything. Then, I feel my phone vibrating. It is Kate. My saviour.

"I gotta go, it was nice meeting you both" said I quietly and walk towards the door. J-hope immediately steps aside.

"Can we at least have your name?" RM asks.

"It is Y/N" and smile nervously. I walk out of the door, leaving the two boys behind.

I feel my body shaking. I'm at a loss for words. Again, my mind fails to say the right thing or choose the happy path. Why couldn't I just say yes to him? Why is Jack still wandering in my head? Can I ever forget him? Despite all this, one thing is for sure: Nothing like this will occur to me. I will never see J-Hope ever again.

*SIDE NOTE

First of all, I wish you all a happy new year! May all of your dreams come true (even the ones about BTS).
