Party
The Thorn By My Side: Beauty & The PrincesThe thing about coming to social gatherings with a hot date, it's completely stupid.
I know I should be used to the spotlight and all because of my career, truth is, I still get agitated.
"Calm down, they're your past classmates and schoolmates. They know you and you know them" Changmin soothed.
"Funny. Last time I checked, most of them hated me" I rolled my eyes, annoyed by my own self.
"If they hated you, they wouldn't have invited you"
"Henry Lau invited me"
"Then not all of them hate you" Changmin smiled as he held my hand, a small gesture of comfort.
I sighed, finally allowing myself to smile as I walked in the entrance with Shim Changmin by my side. As soon as the doors opened, a series of gasps and astonished looks came to our direction.

"A lot of begging obviously" Amber snorted.
"I heard that" Henry popped out from behind us and pulled Amber into his arms, giving her a soft hug. "You came"
"You are pretty persuasive. Congratulations on you both! Now I get why Amber cant say no" I teased, earning laughs.
"Excuse me but can we steal your date for a short while? My mother-in-law is dying to meet Shim Changmin" Henry asked politely.
"Future mother-in-law" Amber muttered.
"Sure. Dont stray too far" I said as Changmin gave me a worried look.
