Here's My Number

6

The next morning at about 8AM, you awake to your alarm.  You hit snooze immediately out of habit. Just a little more sleep-

Wait.

It's Saturday.

Which means...

"Holy cow I'm going to hang out with Jimin all day!"

Your door opens and your older sister Lily peeks through. "Who's Jimin?" She asks, with a sneaky grin on her face.

"No one, go away- why are you up so early?"

"Oh my god are you finally over Gavin? Can I talk shit about him now?"

You groan and throw a shoe from off the floor at her.

"Go away!"

"Is he a new crush?"

"Fine! He is, now leave!"

Your sister leaves the room, humming to herself. You slither off of the bed and hurry to your closet to pick out something cute, but not too cute.

You end up in a pair of light blue jeans and a cute orange-yellow knit sweater. Perfect for the slightly chilly weather but not too heavy so you won't get hot.

You leave your hair down but straighten it in the bathroom, and you put on a little mascara and a less than obvious lip gloss.

Cute but not too cute.

You wear black converse high tops and a pretty necklace from your sister to complete your look. Your wallet fits in your back pocket.

You leave the house and Autumn picks you up. The boys are going to meet you at the mall.

"You look good," Autumn compliments you. You shrug. "I look normal," you reply.

"You look like you've actually tried to dress nice. Is that... oh my god, you're wearing makeup."

You blush. "Is it too obvious?"

"Maybe dab your lips with your sleeve or something. Your lips are a little too shiny."

You do just that, dimming the sheen of your lips. Autumn nods approvingly. "Perfect. Have you heard from Jimin?"

"No, but yesterday he texted me and said that Mikey- his host brother- will give him a ride."

Autumn nods. "This is operation get Jimin to ask you out, or... GJTAYO"

"Stop it, we are not doing that."

You and autumn get into her car and she turns on her music, which is mostly just music from the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 soundtrack.

You both sing at the top of your lungs passionately until you reach the mall and park.

You smooth your hair nervously in the mirror, then shake your head. We're not going on a date. I shouldn't be so worried.

You and Autumn walk inside the mall and sit on a bench next to a book store near the entrance. It's the agreed meeting spot.

Gavin shows up first. He wears a red baseball cap over his fluffy brown hair. He has on a green jersey and light blue jeans. His shoes are dark red vans.

"Just waiting on Jimin?" He asks. Autumn nods curtly. You sit in silence for a few more minutes while you wait for Jimin to show up.

When he does, your breath catches in your throat and your heart beats faster.

His silver hair is parted down the middle and you can see some of his forehead, which is just as perfect as the rest of him. He wears a black and white striped shirt with a denim jacket and black skinny jeans.
