Never Letting Go

"I've dated, a bit - just I always compared them to him and I don't know why it's not like.. I mean he's my best friend before he started dating we spent all out time together. Everyone who knew us thought we'd somehow end up together, and who knows maybe he's not the one for me, but I love him so much," she said to her softly as she thought about him then sighed, "Maybe I'll like the guy you set me up with enough to forget about these feelings, if I do thats great - if not then well I tried,"

Charlotte sighed a little, "He is quiet stubborn,"

She sighed a little and smiled. "He is," She said, shaking her head. "But, it's who he is." She said to her. "Maybe he is for you, and thats why this is happening," She sighed, looking at the table. "Just... do me a favor. Warn me if he's planning something, and try to talk him down if he's going to try to do something crazy. I don't need any surprises, not from him."

"I'll do my best, and try to get to you before he does, or better yet I'll text you once I know anything," she said softly, "with prom going up he might try to ask you to go with him, but maybe Wonho could do something big to deter him from doing anything," she offered as she ordered the grande nachos and milkshake since she was kind of hungry,

"I dont know what hes planning, but I'll ask him. Hopefully Kihyun hears or sees Wonho asked me first," She murmured, ordering a milkshake and some fries. "I'll ask him when I see him later, Wonho already hates him. Which is understandable, but it sucks. I hate bad feelings going around." She murmured a bit.

She nodded a little, "Me too," she murmured softly then sighed as she looked at her, "It's hard this year, finally almost done with high school, going to college and growing up - no one tells how hard it is to be around people, we're just expected to do it,"

She sighed a little, sitting back as the food came and smiling. "I'm pretty excited for college. I got accepted at the state university, and I'm going there when I graduate. You might know this, but so is Kihyun. We applied together, unfortunately now. It'll make things more interesting, I guess."

"I'm going to state college as well, I got a scholarship to the nursing program there, "she said smiling a little as she sighed, "I knew he was going to apply, but I was going to go for the sake of being close to home. I have other colleges for choices as well if this year doesn't go as planned," she said to her lightly, "Is it wrong to want to be close to him? Even if he doesn't want me, I stil lwant him in my life,"

"No, not if you love him. Wonho had mentioned going home to Colorado for school, and I mean... I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't consider give up my scholarship to apply where he was going. I'd do it if it meant being near him, but I also know to think about myself first," She sighed, eating her food.

She nodded a little and sighed a little, "This year will be over before we know it, hopefully, I'm so tired of high school pettiness - when can I enjoy being petty in college," she whined a little with a laugh as she sipped her milkshake, "At least there I can...." she trailed off then huffed a little as she shoved a chip in her mouth.

She sighed, eating more of her fries and sighing. "I'm throwing a party soon, you should come." She smiled a little. "It'll be at my friend's house, but I can send you the address and everything there. Maybe we can push you and Kihyun together and end this whole thing faster than we thought," She laughed a little.

She snorted a little then smiled, "I appreciate the thought but I don't do well at parties," she said as she looked at her, "I always leave early and I.. I don't know I don't like drinking," she said sheepishly as she rubbed the back of her neck then sighed a little. "I doubt one party is going to change anything, if anything he'll just cling to you the whole night,"

"You don't have to drink," She said, shaking her head. "And Wonho will be there," She added. "It would be interesting seeing him try to cling with Wonho there. We'll figure something out. But you should come, I can't say you'll have fun but I will try to make it as fun as possible. It's not going to be a huge party. Just a fewpeople, no more than 20 at most," She shrugged.

Charlotte sighed a little then bit into another chip, "Alright, I'll go," she murmured softly and smiled a little then set her exam on the table, "Can you tell me what I got wrong - never marks whatever is wrong on it and I need to know for my sanity,"

Rayan ate her fry and then dusted her hand of on her pants before pulling the paper closer to her. "Oh, this," She said, pointing it out. "You misanalyzed a character, and mixed up some symbolism," She explained, pointing it out. She was great at English and History, but hated math with a passion.

She groaned, "I don't understand symbolism, it's so useless - I'll never need it as a nurse or a doctor," she said to her then sipped her milkshake, "He could at least curve my grade a bit right? I mean thats totally doable?" she let out a deep breath then looked at her.

Rayan sat down in the courtyard with Wonho, studying one for one of her tests and messing with him while he tried to sleep on the table. She was happy to have a distraction, and some free time to work on the assignment before the test. "You're coming over later right?" She asked curiously. "Also, I wanted to ask. You do want to go to Prom right?"

Charlotte was sitting in the library rewriting her notes for chemistry - she'd put off taking it at as long as she could since she hated formulas. She sighed a little and closed her eyes as she began to think then began to write down more information so she had notes on the quiz. "Hey, hey Kihyun." she called from across the library whisper yelling his name.

---

He smiled, "Of course, and yes I plan on taking you as well unless you've got another date," he grinned as he looked at her and scanned over his notes.

She smiled a little. "Well I don't know, I heard Kihyun was planning on asking me," She joked, writing in her book.

---

Kihyun looked over and walked over, sirting at the table. "Hey, what are you up to?" He asked curiously.

She smiled a little,"I wanted to talk to you about prom, I have a feeling you're going to ask Rayan but she has gotten me a date so I'm not completely hopeless," she said smiling a little as she brushed some hair out of her eyes then sighed. "I need a dress though now so I'll be shopping for it this weekend,"

---

He nodded,"Should I make a big spectacle of it?" he asked curiously, "During lunch I'll show everyone?"

She laughed nervously. "I was joking, you know I'm going with you," She said, looking at him. "You don't need to make a spectacle of anything," She smiled a little as she sighed.

---

Kihyun nodded a little. "Who did she set you up with?" He asked curiously. "And yeah, I haven't heard anyone talk about Wonho asking her so I'm going to ask her today at lunch before he does," He said. "Are you asking me to go dress shopping with you?"
