MOVIES: MYG
You tapped your foot impatiently, waiting for your best friend. He promised to be here half an hour ago.
Now the movie would start in fifteen minutes and still he was nowhere to be found. Taking out your phone, you dialed his number.
"Where are you?" You asked as soon as he picked up. "Relax, I'm walking in right now." He answered. "What took you so long?"
"I told you my cousin was coming over today. He came earlier than planned and with a friend. And I couldn't leave them behind."
"Oh, so they're with you?" You questioned. "Yes. Oh, I see you." He replied and ended the call. Shoving your phone back in the pocket of your jeans, you looked around trying to spot him in the crowd.
"Boo!" Someone yelled from behind, startling you. You turned around to see your best friend, rolling your eyes at him.
"Hazel, this is my cousin, Lee and his friend..." Jacob started to say. You turned to the two next to him and couldn't believe your eyes.
"Min Yoongi." You finished in shock. Jacob looked at you and grinned. He knew about your 'obsession' with BTS and he knew exactly who his cousin's friend was.
You stared at Yoongi, wondering how your best friend got him to come along, especially to such a public place.
"Lee, Yoongi, this is Hazel." Lee was the first to take your hand, snapping you out of your daze. "Nice to meet you, Hazel." He grinned. "Nice to meet you too." You smiled back softly.
"Hi, nice to meet you, Hazel." Yoongi chimed, lips curving up. His gummy smile was more beautiful than you'd imagined up close. And hearing your name roll off his tongue gave you goosebumps. "Nice to finally meet you too."
You looked at your watch. "Um, the movie is about to start." You stared at Yoongi furtively. "We'll go get tickets." Your best friend announced.
"But I got you one already." You looked up at him. "Let Yoongi take it, I think it's best he get inside as soon as possible. We'll meet you there."
You looked at Yoongi. How were you supposed to casually walk into the theatre with him? Just standing this close, you felt like your legs would give way.
"Let's go." Yoongi smiled at you. You nodded, swallowing. You walked toward the theatre, Yoongi keeping his head down next to to you.
You both went inside and made your way to the very back. You started to play with your hands as soon as you sat down.
Yoongi looked over at you from beneath his hat. "Are you nervous?" He asked softly. You glanced at him, rubbing your palms over your lap. "Why'd you ask?"
He looked down at your hands and then back up at you, smiling his gummy smile again. You mentally thanked God you were sitting because you felt your knees go weak.
Him sitting next to you, close enough to touch made you want to scream. You took in a deep breath, trying to slow your fast beating heart.
"You don't have to be nervous." He assured, incredibly close to your ear. You felt the goosebumps rise on your skin again. He wasn't helping.
Where were your best friend and Lee? Should getting tickets take this long? The lights would soon be dimmed.
"I'm...okay." You answered slowly, trying to keep the stutter out of your voice. "Even your tiny voice is shaky." He remarked playfully. "Hey, I don't have a tiny voice." You turned to him, a small frown on your face.
He laughed a little. "Are you feeling better now?" He asked. You smiled. "Yes, I guess." You replied as the lights dimmed.
"Good, because I don't like to think that I'm making you uncomfortable." He leaned back into his chair again. "You're not."
"Okay, t–" Yoongi was cut short when Jacob and Lee appeared. "Got you guys popcorn." Jacob handed you both buckets of popcorn.
"I can't finish this." Yoongi stared at the large bucket. "Neither can I." You looked at your best friend. He knew that so why did he buy it?
"We can share." Yoongi offered. You looked at him. That was why. "Um, okay." You handed your popcorn back to Jacob who gladly accepted it.
The trailers had stopped playing and the movie was starting. You grabbed a handful of popcorn as you waited. It was an action comedy, so you were excited.
"You look like you want to jump into the screen." Yoongi observed. You turned to him and realised you were leaning forward. Your cheeks went warm as you slowly sat back.
"Cute." He remarked quietly but you heard him. You smiled again, feeling your cheeks heat up as you looked back at the screen.
Half an hour into the movie, you reached out for some popcorn. Feeling your fingers brush Yoongi's, you pulled away.
When you turned he was already looking at you. "Sorry." You smiled awkwardly. "It's fine." He answered and you both turned your attention back to the movie.
The whole theatre burst out laughing at a particularly funny scene. You glanced at Yoongi and noticed he wasn't laughing. You stopped grinning, wondering why he didn't find it funny.
You sighed and continued watching the movie. You froze when you felt a head on your shoulder.
You glanced down. So he had fallen asleep. You couldn't see his face under the black hat but you heard his soft breathing.
Min Yoongi was asleep on your shoulder! You didn't know what to do so you just sat there stiffly, struggling to breathe at the thought of his head resting on you. You didn't move for the rest of the movie just so you wouldn't wake him.
"Yoongi," you called softly as the credits began to roll. "Yoongi," you called again and he stirred. "Yoongi, wake up." You said again.
"The movie's over. Wake up, we have to go." You touched his face with your fingers. "Hmm?" He lifted his head a bit.
Even in the semi darkness, you saw how cute he looked, face slightly swollen from sleep. "The movie's over." The lights came on then. He rubbed at his eyes. "Oh."
"So Hazel, I hear your birthday is tomorrow." Lee started as you trailed out of the theatre behind the crowd. "Oh, yeah." You nodded.
Honestly, you'd actually forgotten all about your birthday. Was that what this was about? Was bringing Yoongi here a sort of gift?
"Any plans?" He asked again. "No," you shook your head. You'd never made plans for your birthday.
"None?" Yoongi looked at you, still a bit sleepy. You shook your head. "She never has any." Jacob piped in.
"Well, now you have one." Yoongi stated. You stopped to look at him. "What?"
"We'll take you out again tomorrow." He replied matter-of-factly. "Anywhere you want to go." He added quietly. "What?" You repeated.
You were still thinking of going home to recover from this spectacular day. Now he wanted to take you out again.
"You should do something special on your birthday once in a while." He rubbed the bridge of his nose. You just stared at him.
"Cute," he smiled again. "I'll take your silence as a yes." He told you. You just gawked at him. "Good then. I'll see you tomorrow."
You held on to your best friend for support. This had to be a dream. You watched as Yoongi and Lee got into a car.
When they were gone, your best friend turned to you. "I hope you liked your present."
You smiled. Definitely. This was going to be the best birthday ever.
