The time had arrived. I was sitting on the steps of my house, waiting for Isa and Baby to pick me up and take me to Jimin's beautiful home. My costume was comprised of a white chef's hat, and a white dress with red buttons going down the middle that looked like an official chef's outfit. I added splashes of fake blood onto the dress so they would match the fake blood of the knife Emma was wearing, so I could be a cannibal chef. I decided against the heels and was wearing black flats, which was probably for the best considering I was already 4 inches taller than Jimin. I soon saw the car arrive and park right in front of the house. Isa leaned out the passenger window and yelled,
"Let's go bitch my hand is missing a drink!"
She was dressed as Harley Quinn and Baby was dressed as the Joker. Real original. When I stood up, Baby whistled and said,
"Dammmn. It's 'boner petite' central here!"
to which Isa proceeded to whack the back of his head so I wouldn't have to. I got in the backseat of the car and looked at him before saying,
"Looks like you dressed as your true self today, a clown"
Isa laughed and kissed Baby's cheek, who looked mad at my sick ass burn. She then turned to me and said,
"You should probably text lover boy and ask for his address."
"No need, I already know where he lives."
Baby snickered before whispering,
"Stalker"
There's no point in denying it. I got the address because last year I followed him when he walked home from school, not knowing that he lived an hour away. Since I didn't pay attention to my whereabouts, I got stranded in the middle of nowhere and it started raining, but I wasn't about to ask Jimin for help so I sat under a tree and waited 4 hours for my mom to come home from work and pick me up. I had a fun time coming up with a lie explaining what the hell I was doing there. I went with "I followed a squirrel to see where it lived".
I gave the directions and we soon arrived in front of his house. I sent him a quick text indicating our presence and then screamed. Baby and Isa jumped before turning around to look at me.
"I'm okay. I'm okay. I just needed t get it out of my system because this is the night where everything changes. This is going to be the night where I kiss Jimin, I know it."
Just as I had finished giving my speech, Jimin walked out of the house. He was dressed as a scarecrow, with the straw hat, flannel, blue overalls, and fake straw attached to the sleeves and pants. He looked fucking adorable. Damn, if I just unclipped those suspenders, they would fall and his pants would probably pool around his ankle and he would be naked and I would be able to-
"Ohhh a chef costume! Nice, weird girl. Very original. Hey what's up, I'm Jimin."
Jimin exchanged hellos with Baby, who started the car, and Isa, the latter of which was staring at me trying to gauge my reaction. Jimin opened the car door and sat down next to me. I started blushing, embarrassed about my earlier thoughts of his naked body. Jesus Maria keep it in your pants.
"Oh hi. Yeah, Baby said boner petite when he saw me so I'm guessing it's a compliment."
Jimin started laughing before adding,
"Hey, if you were a steak you would be well done"
and he winked. Holy fucking hell he winked. At me. I felt my cheeks get redder than a tomato and I turned my face towards Isa who had her phone out and was taking a picture. I took the phone and threw it over my shoulder and into the trunk. Isa yelled,
"You bitch!"
"Well, that will teach you for taking a picture of me at importune times."
Jimin chuckled beside me before turning to look out the window. We were so close yet the distance between us had never seemed greater. If I extended my hand I could probably touch those muscular thighs of his or stroke his amazing hair. A piece of fake straw fell from his sleeve and I picked it up.
"Your straw fell"
"Oh. Keep it."
OH MY GOODNESS he was giving me gifts. I tucked the piece of straw in the only pocket I had, the space between my underwear and my thigh and leaned back against the seat, content. We soon arrived at the party where Jimin opened the door and held it open for me, making me swoon from his gentlemanly act. When we arrived, the party was in full swing and we quickly made our way to the drinks table. The music was pounding and we could see everyone dancing and making out in dark corners. Isa took a bottle of vodka and poured a generous amount into four solo cups, before filling the rest with orange juice. She handed each of us a cup and raised it above her head before yelling over the music,
"In the words of my favorite character, Frank Gallagher of Shameless, deliver us from evil or grant us the certainty of being plastered enough not to give a fuck. Amen."
And with that blessing, we each down our glass before pouring ourselves another. Soon after, Isa and Baby left and headed to the dancefloor, where they were putting on a display that would put strippers to shame. I realized I was alone with Jimin. Fuck, okay. Don't be awkward.
"So why are you a scarecrow, do you like having a stick up your ass?"
Way to not be awkward, Maria. Thankfully, Jimin started laughing and said,
"Well weird girl, it was the only thing I had in my house. And no, I don't particularly enjoy having things up my ass, although I wouldn't know. What about you, why are you a chef?"
"Well, I'm actually a cannibal chef, so I eat people. This stems from my constant asocial ways and the fact that I'm constantly dreaming of killing someone."
"Should I be concerned?"
"No, you're fine. I actually like you."
Did I say that out loud? Oh, fucking hell the love gods have failed me. I took a drink of my cup to hide my incoming blush. He laughed and said,
"Thanks, I like you too."
The vodka in my mouth suddenly decided to go down the wrong tube and I started choking. Jimin looked concerned and left to find some water for me. He came back and I took the water, trying to calm my coughing fit. Holy hell did he just say he likes me? Me? The loser with all the BTS smut? Jimin put his hand on my shoulder and said,
"Woah, are you okay? I didn't want to kill you there."
"No, no it's fine. I think someone poured vodka in my hair or a bee stung me or something. Anyways what were you saying?"
"I was saying tha- What the fuck?"
Jimin was staring at something over my shoulder. I turned around to look at the entrance of the party when the rest of what was in my cup spilled on the ground.
Emma had walked into the party. And her costume,
was me.
