The preparations for the dance were all set and the decorations around the halls were cute. I had to wake up early to help my mom deliver the last of her flowers which were coming here to the school. I even got Tae to help me. He was walking around half a sleep, throwing flowers at random people who walked by.
Its February 14th,the day of love and other things. We decided that we were all going to meet at my house before the dance so we could all ride in Tae's car. The real reason is that we heard the Taehyung's older brother was coming to town and will be arriving today. We didn't know he had any siblings, I wonder if he looks like an older Tae.
"Didn't get much sleep?" I walked over to Tae who was still throwing flowers at people and took the basket her had. I pulled him to sit in one of the chairs.
"No, I've been worried about my brother coming. We haven't seen each other in five years, what if he hates what I've become" he looked upset
"You're amazing,sweet and overall a great friend. If he doesn't like that he's not worth all your worries" I pulled him into a hug
"Thanks"
I was given an excuse to mis the first few classes because my mom was helping the school with last minute stuff. I was just wondering around the hall, enjoying the free time I had. I heard music coming from the gym and I went to check it out. It was Tony, the owner of the record shop I used to go to when I wanted to see Jennie.
"Y/N/N! Haven't seen you at my store in a while" I ran up to him and hugged him. Since I've been trying to get my mind off Jennie I don't go back to the store anymore. What if I saw her and went back to how it started, being helplessly in love with her.
"Sorry I've been busy"
I used to go the the store regularly and somehow became close friends with the owner.
I would bring him a smoothie and he would talk to me while I waited for Jennie to arrive. He knew that I was waiting for her but he never asked why. I felt that he knew."So are you the dj for tonight?" I looked around him and he was surrounded with a bunch of machines.
"Yeah, my niece asked if I could come in" He was setting his stuff and I sat down at the grand piano that was on the stage. It looked kinda dusty, when's the last time the school ever used these instruments.
"Your niece goes to school here?"
"She works here, she's an English teacher for the freshman" I wonder which ones his niece. Wait! If his niece is a teacher here then how old is Tony? He doesn't look a day over 40.
"Now tell me did you ask your special someone to the dance" I knew he was talking about Jennie. If I had asked her would she say yes?
"That special someone found someone else" he shook his head and started messing with his turn table.
"This is a song for you Y/N" I laughed as he pointed to me making a bunch of goofy faces.
Love by Keyshia Cole
I used to think that I wasn't fine enough
And I used to think that I wasn't wild enough
But I won't waste my time tryin' to figure out why you playin' games
What's this all about
And I can't believe
You're hurting me
I met your girl, what a difference
What you see in her
You ain't see in me
But I guess it was all just make believe"No! turn it off, Tony you'll make me cry"
He laughed and stopped the music. He then lifted his finger in the air and ran behind the curtains coming out with a microphone."What's this" he placed it on the piano I was sitting on. He was gesturing to the piano then pretended to play.
"You want me to play?"
