I sat on my queen size bed dreading the next few hour that was ahead of me. I knew that I would have to get ready eventually, so I got up and walked into my walk in wardrobe and got out the dress that I needed for the dance. I got changed and just placed my hair into a side plait, "hunny, you ready yet the ball starts in 5 minutes and guest are gathering." My mum said through the door, "Yeah, I'll be there in a minute." I didn't hear any reply, I knew that this started at 4 and didn't end till late around 1am. I walked out of my room with my heals on and made my way towards the hall where the ball with being held, I saw guest gradually coming in as they talk to one another. "Hello princess." They bowed as I walked past I simply smiled and bowed as I walked into the hall.
My mind was blank, as I sat at the front of the hall, with my parents greeting people coming in, I hated gatherings, if this wasn't on I would be in my room listening to music, or writing down lyrics. I sighed as I saw someone else looking like he didn't want to be here. I watched him, he had a notebook infront as he was writing something down, someone hit him on his arm which made him place the book into his suit. I saw that my parent were gradually coming over back to me seeing people and chatting. I looked at the clock it was only 4:30 and this place was filled.
My parents now sat down next to meet with eyes now on us, my dad stood up to thank people as they had drinks in front of them, my dad asked us to lift our drinks which we did, i looked and saw the guy from earlier just leaving his drink tho he had his book out again, writing stuff. We finally finished the cheers and my parents were now walking round. I got up as well and walked put behind me as there was a door. I walked round so I was now near the entrance and walked to my room and grabbed my headphones and phone, I hesitated witb my music book but grabbed it along with a pen.
I walked into a room near the hall thats always free and sat down on the floor and this was my studio to either dance or do music, I placed my head phones on and but on a song that was relaxing I got out my music book and went to the back page and began to doodle, I heard the door open and saw a face come around the door, "Hi." I said softly and smiling, he opened the door and shut it as I took off my headphones, it was the notebook guy from earlier, "why are you in here and not in the ball." He asked as he sat next to me, "I dont like parties and prefer listening to music somewhere else." I said moving my notebook away. "What about you." I asked him, "same." He simply said, "I'm Y/N." I said smiling, "Jihoon but friends call me Woozi."
"What sort of music, do you usually listen to?" He asked me as he picked my headphones up. "Anything really, depends on my mood." I said, he looked ay my notebook, "what do you use that for." He asked pointing at my notebook, "well i either doodle or this may sound stupid, but write lyrics." I said flipping through it, i watched as he got out his notebook, "i write a bit of music myself." He said, "is that what you were doing earlier?" I asked him, he nodded, "You saw?" He asked me, "Yeah and that person hitting your arm." I said laughing slightly.
We sat in the room, just talking about music, as that seems like something that we both have in common. "Can we look at eachothers lyrics?" I asked him, he nodded and passed him my notebook while he passed me his. I opened it and saw notes and lyrics about different things, "how do you get your ideas?" He asked me, " well a lot of things i see like love between my parents or other people, sometimes i quietly go out and write what i find." I simply said, "what about you?" I asked "same, cause most of it like love i havent really experienced." He said, "well that makes two of us." I said nudging his shoulder, "im surprised youre the princess and not had love." He said "well anyone my parents set me up with i never liked." I said i looked towards the window and saw the sun was setting, i grabbed his hand, "come on." I said getting up.
We ran past the hall and ran up the stairs with our notebooks in our hands. We reached the left tower and got out the door, "wow." He said simply look around over the town infront of us. "I know, its amazing at night, when you can just watch the stars while listening to music." I said sitting up against the cold stone wall. "Isn't your dress going to get dirty." Woozi asked me sitting down next to me, "maybe, but next event will be another new dress like always." I said, "You don't like dresses?" He asked me, "Not really, i prefer shirt and joggers." I said laughing, "Really the princess?" He said laughing, which was quite soft. "I know, but im always in them unless my parents need me near guest or they are watching me." I said.
We sat outside for a while as he heard the party become more quiet, it felt nice being with someone who wasn't wanting me to be in the crowd, but by ourselves. "So what made you write lyrics." Woozi asked me, "Way of escaping i guess, and i guess my way of writing my feelings." I said, "What about you." I asked him. "Same, i'm able to write down things that i can't say." He said, i smiled knowing someone else knew who i feel and not just as some royal girl.
We sat there for hours talking, which was weird this was one of the first times i had a conversation with someone without feeling uncomfortable or forced. We walked downstairs knowing it was late and people began to leave. "We should do this again Y/N, not when there is some dance, but just in general if you're allowed." He said to me, "I would love too, and i'll find a way out don't worry about that." I said laughing, we walked into the hall and saw there was still some people left but not as many as earlier. "I guess i should let you go Woozi, i'll see you soon." I said smiling and walking off, happy that this night wasn't a waste. I turned to him just looking at me while holding his notebook. i smiled hoping i gave him some inspiration for a song.
Two updates in a week, i hope i can still do this again next week or maybe a third one but maybe one or two next week. Ever since _World came out i've listened non-stop which is bad cause i hear it in my dreams, but i hope you liked this story. >.<
