I Need You

43

"So where are we going?" I ask Sean as we are walking towards his car.

As he is opening the door for me to get in, he says, "Well there's this pizza place that I like to go to sometimes at night, so how about that?"

I smile, "Sounds good."

We get to the restaurant, sit down, and order some pizza.

"So, how did you get into performing with the band?" asks Sean.

"Well, I was a Youtuber. I say I was, I am at Youtuber and so I sang a cover of their song 'I Need You' and it got a lot of recognition. So, that's where it all began. Honestly if you went to my Youtube channel and watched like my last 3 videos, I practically told everyone the whole story."

"That's cool," says Sean while taking a bite of pizza.

"How old are you Sean?" I ask him realizing I actually don't know.

"I just turned 20 last month. How old are you?"

"I turned 18 in May," I say and he nods.

"So you went to high school and everything?" he asks me.

"Yep, pre-k to 12th grade. You're in college?"

"Yes I am. I go to NYU actually here and I do things at the arena and stuff for some extra money."

"Oh cool," I say, "I want to go to college but as of right now, it doesn't seem realistic you know?"

He nods and says, "Well, I mean if you still want to go to college, I think it's a good idea. Take a year or so off or just go on tour during breaks or whatever, you know?"

"Yeah, I guess. I don't know. I guess I'll decide when I get to that point."

He smiles and takes another bite of the pizza.

When we finish eating, it is about 8:30pm, so not too late. We decide to go take a little walk in the park and we talk for a little bit more. We talk about anything and everything.

After about 30 minutes of walking around in Central Park, we head to his car and he brings me back to the arena.

We both walk into the arena and all the guys are still in the same room.

"Hey guys," I say walking in and waving to them all.

"Hey Jade!" they all say in unison, except Jungkook. He doesn't even bother to look up from his phone.

"What did you guys do?" asks Jimin.

"We went to get some pizza at this place by Central Park, it's really good. We should go there before we leave," I say.

All the guys nod and "ohh" in approval.

"What have y'all been doing?" I ask them.

"Just hanging out and stuff," says J-Hope.

"Sounds fun," I say.

I turn to Sean who is standing next to me and we walk just outside the door.

"I had fun tonight, thanks," I say.

"No problem, I had a lot of fun, too," he says smiling.

Would this be considered a date or just 2 people hanging out? Does he want to kiss me? Or are we just gonna hug? I don't know what to do.

There are a few seconds of awkward silence. We go in for a hug and say goodbye to each other. He begins to walk towards the exit and I watch him for a second and turn to go back into the room.
