Affinity for your Heart - BTS x Reader

Chapter 19

You linked arms with your bunk bud as you walked towards the cafeteria, forcing him to talk to you so there was at least some distraction from the relentless staring.

This is getting old really fast

Your eyes grew wide as you approached the propped open double doors to the cafeteria, hearing the first tune of a live orchestra ringing out into the halls.

What used to be a large hall of tables and buffet style servings was now a completely different scene.

You looked around as you entered, noticing that the plain white columns of the room were now decorated with silver glittering swirls, and the boring baby blue wallpaper now a deep royal red.

Hanging from the ceiling were four stunning and extremely expensive looking crystal chandeliers, ones that would surely make the Buckingham Palace look like a cheap hotel.

The place looked like a ballroom fit for only the most wealthy of royalty.

The enchanted rippling floor from the Temple now gracing the previously white marble, which only increased the sense of a mystical fantasy.

You followed the boys through the crowds of elegantly-dressed students, making your way  towards the edge of the dance floor.

Other students were already dancing, looking just as brilliantly talented as the ones you had creative class with.

"Wow.." you breathed, mentally cursing yourself for your two left feet.

You watched on in awe as the students glided across the enchanted floor, their steps rippling outwards and making it look like they were dancing on water. 

It was the stuff of fairy-tales, where Princes and Princesses existed. 

Like some kind of Disney movie.

You were entirely enchanted.

You were so busy watching that you didn't even notice that Jimin had positioned himself in front of you.

Looking over just as he began to bow, he slowly extended a hand out towards you.

"May I have this dance?" He asked softly, eyes locking onto yours.

Oh sh*t

Oh f**k

I can't dance!!

"I-uh-"

"Don't worry,"  He started, as if he had been listening to your thoughts this whole time, "I'll guide you."

Without a second thought you placed your hand in his, your breathing becoming uneven as you followed him out into the middle of the dance floor.

You froze as he turned to you, gently pulling you into him as he wrapped a hand delicately around your waist.

Your eyes followed as his other hand clasped onto yours, bringing it up to signal the start of your dance.

Focusing with all your might, you mimicked his steps, counting 3's in your head as you attempted to keep a smile on your face.

One, two, three

One, two, three-

"You're doing great," Jimin whispered, bending slightly to whisper into your ear.

His sudden words broke you out of your intense concentration, causing your foot to crash heavily down onto his.

You looked down in a panic, only now remembering that you were wearing stilettos this evening.
