Chapter 31
The rest of Thursday and Friday go past quite uneventful, well for me. It seems Jimin and the boys are getting somewhere and have a couple of tracks recorded that they are happy enough with. It's not going to be a massive album, probably about 10 songs so it's a really good start. We spend the downtime Thursday night watching films, and although there are knowing glances between me and Namjoon it appears in his eyes i'm still not ready for him.
Lori has a surprise for us for Friday night, she tells me to make sure the boys are wearing suits and tells me to put on a nice dress. She will be over at 7pm and asks me to book a cab for 7:30pm. I have no clue what it is.
The good thing about staying at my besties is that most of my going out clothes are in her spare bedroom as a lot of the time we get ready and then crash here. I walk into the room, the boys are not in there, I think they are still in the bathroom. I search through the wardrobe and I find a figure hugging red number that I haven't worn for a while. That should do. It has a thin strap one side and is strapless the other, it sits just above my boobs allowing a little cleavage to be seen, fits snuggly around my torso and hips and stops mid thigh in a little bell flair. I team it with some black knee high boots and borrow a black clutch bag of Lori's from her wardrobe. I put on smoky eye makeup and red lips, straighten my hair and search my case for jewellery. Shit! I left most of mine at home. My current gold hoops don't go. I need something silver to match the zips on my boots. I spy Jimin's feather earrings on the dresser. Perfect. I pop them in my ears. All done.
It doesn't take Jimin long to get ready when he comes out of the bathroom. He puts on a black Chanel suit with white shirt. He changes his silver hoops to silver crosses and notices his feathers are missing. I look at him and say "I hope you don't mind" showing him them in my ears. "They look lovely gwihan" he says. "You are missing something though". He gets a little box out of his coat pocket that is hanging on the back of the door and passes it to me. "You said when we first met that I had just missed your birthday. I wanted to get you something and it was delivered to the studio today" he gestures for me to open it.
The box has a name on it,Wempe, i've not heard of them before. I pull the lid off and inside is the most stunning ring. A wide band with diamonds along the edges leading up to 3 larger diamonds in different shapes clustered together again with smaller diamonds all around the edges. I'm amazed! It looks so expensive. My mouth drops open and I struggle to find the words to truly convey my thanks. He takes it out of the box and places it on my middle finger on my left hand and it fits perfectly. I throw my arms around him and squeeze him tight. I want to kiss his face off but I don't because of my red lips. "Perfect fit for the perfect girl" he says. "You look amazing".
Namjoon and Yoongi pop their heads around the door and both comment how nice it looks on and how lovely I look. They are both wearing black suits too, Yoongi with a black silk shirt matching the lapels of his suit jacket and Namjoon wearing a lilac shirt matching his hair. They both look so handsome.
I hear Lori come through the door into the hallway where Yoongi and Namjoon are standing. "Hi" she says to them, taken aback that they are so close to the front door. I watch Yoongi's face, his eyes widen and he swallows hard, turning to face her some more. I think he wants to smile at her but instead gives her a sexy glare. I know she will love that. Namjoon shakes her hand and introduces himself to her and she moves to Yoongi to do the same. He takes her hand and looks her up and down. She has one side of her hair pinned back with 3 silver and diamond clips, natural make up on, and a black dress. The dress has no sleeves, the bodice has an intricate pattern on it which looks like velvet. It flows from her waist out in to a skater style skirt which puffs out when she spins. She has heeled black sandals on with little diamanté's on the clasps and a black clutch bag. She looks amazing. "Wow Lori, you look fantastic" Yoongi says to her. She blushes and says thank you, flirting with him with her green eyes and full smile.
We hug and she pinches Jimin's cheek in a playful hello to him. She turns so she can see us all and says "right, let's get this party started, I need wine!" I get her attention and point to my finger, she pulls me through the boys to the kitchen and grabs it to look closer. "Wow, that must have cost a fortune!" She says, moving it about in the light. "Talk about it later though yeah?" She asks and starts getting out the glasses and I get a bottle of white out of the fridge hearing the boys coming. Namjoon appears with another bottle of Soju from his case but this one is raspberry flavour, Yoongi and Jimin eagerly bouncing in behind him. In the 30 minutes before our car arrives we sink a fair few shots and a glass of wine each, the alcohol taking away any nerves for what the night might bring.
