Parallel Lines
The next day, I took a quick shower before heading out of my room, just to bump into Sehun as he was pulling Jimin into a playful headlock.
“Admit that I’m the best,” Sehun said with a smile,
Jimin broke out in a laughter, “B-But then I’d be lying!”
“Say it,” Sehun laughed as he looked up at me, “Hey Sara,”
Jimin looked up at me with pleading eyes, “Sara, beautiful sister of mine, please get this old man off me!”
“Old man?!” Sehun gasped, “You’re so going down the stairs head first!”
“Sara!” My dad called from downstairs, “Come here will you? I have something to talk to you about,”
I frowned, Sehun let go of Jimin and both of them frowned in confusion just like me, “Uh… that’s worrying,”
“Good luck,” Jimin patted me on the back,
Sehun ruffled Jimin’s hair, “What do you mean good luck? We’re going to get breakfast,”
“Eaves dropping?” Jimin raised an eyebrow, “I like your style,”
Sehun laughed, “Just move it,”
I took two steps at a time as I went down the stairs, jumping from the last two before moving towards the dining room where my father was sat reading the paper and drinking his own cup of coffee. I sat down in my usual seat, as did Sehun and Jimin, breakfast was already served and I could hear my mother humming from the kitchen.
I swallowed nervously as I looked at my father, “What’s up?”
“Ah,” he lowered the newspaper and then was startled that everyone else was there, “Oh… you’re all here well that’s okay too I suppose,”
“Is it bad?” I asked,
He laughed, “No, I’ve been invited to a party and I wanted you to attend, but now that I think about it I think Jimin is old enough to start attending too, and of course Sehun can come as well,”
Jimin smiled, “Awesome,”
“You’ll have to wear a suit and look presentable, can you handle that?” I teased Jimin,
Jimin’s face fell, “Damn you’re right,”
“Alright then,” My dad pulled out something from his pocket and handed it to me, “I want you to go with Sehun after school tomorrow to find something to wear, Jimin is going with your mother on Tuesday so make sure to pick something nice okay?”
I looked at the black credit card in my hand and smirked, “Alright,”
“Is that really okay?” Sehun asked,
My father smiled, “Who else is going to take my daughter? I only trust her in the hands of you Sehun, I mean I will be going with your mother but I’ll be escorting the guest of honour,”
“I see,” I nodded, “Sounds good to me then,”
Sehun smiled, “I’ll make sure she’s okay,”
“Good, I knew I could trust you,” My father smiled before turning to look at Jimin, “You’ll watch out for her too,”
Jimin nodded, “Of course,”

After school on Monday, I text Kai not to pick me up from school as I had to do something for my dad, Sehun picked me up just as I got out of school and I quickly got into the car before anyone could see Sehun inside of the car.
He parked in a parking lot just near the town center and got out of the car, “What kind of event will it be?” he asked,
I smiled at him as I shut the door, “Formal,”
“Do you have to attend these a lot?” Sehun asked
I nodded as I moved to his side, the both of us walking towards town, “Yeah but it’s good that I’ve got someone to go with, usually I’m just on my own and I have to entertain the old erts,”
“That sounds awful,” Sehun frowned,
I laughed at him, “It’s alright Sehun, seeing as you can dance really well, we could enjoy it,”
“Ah… you didn’t say there would be dancing,” He smirked, “Now you’re talking my language,”
“Come on,” I pulled him into a shop that sells formal clothes,
After a few minutes
