Together With You

Mark (*broke the silence & says) : ive been thinking lately Annie.
Annie (*asks) : about what ?
Mark : about my life and future. whether i want to spend it with someone or by myself.
Annie (*asks) : what are you talking about ?
Mark : i wanted to know your opinion on Jennie.
Annie (*asks) : Jennie ? what about her ?
Mark : i want to start dating her while i'm here in LA.

Annie looked away towards her glass drink and knew where he was going with it. Her heart broke into a million pieces and didn't know what else to say to him but she said...

Annie : you should, if that's what you want.
Mark (*asks) : really ?? thats your opinion on this ??
Annie (*asks) : what else do you want me to say ?
Annie : if it's what you want than i’ll be there as your friend to support you.
Annie (*looks down & says) : i just don't want to see you get hurt.
Annie : i want you to be with someone who loves you for you, not for what you have.
Annie : we’ve known Jennie since high school and she’s something alright.
Annie : just don't let Andrew get hurt because you're dating her.
Mark (*asks) : what does Andrew have to do with this ?
Annie : you haven't been here long enough so you wouldn't know.
Mark : tell me. (*asks) what's going on ?
Annie : Andrew has been in love with Jennie since they known each other.
Annie : he confessed to her but she rejected him.
Annie : till this day,
Annie : he still protected and been there for her even though he got rejected.
Mark (*asks) : and this all happened when i was gone ?
Annie : thats not important right now.
Annie : whats important is that your about to break your best friends heart if you do this.
Annie : Jennie was blinded by you so she didnt notice Andrew.
Annie : from this point, it all doesnt matter anymore.
Annie : your here, everyone's here, im here. you do whatever you want with your life.
Annie : im out of it.
Mark (*asks) : what is wrong with you Annie ? what is it that your hiding from me ?
Mark : there's a secret that i dont know. (*asks) what is it Annie ?
Annie : either way, i was going to tell you.
Mark (*asks) : tell me what ?
Annie : i spent my whole life being there for you and i’m so happy that i have.
Annie : but i just feel like we can’t be just friends for the rest of our lives.
Annie : you have been there for me all this time and i began to fell in love with you Mark.
Annie : i’ve loved you since we were young and i don’t know how to change this feeling.
Annie : i meant what i said when you asked me about leaving to Korea.
Annie : it took me years and courage to tell you how i feel about you.
Annie : i thought you should know.
Mark : i don't know what to say Annie.
Annie : i wasn't expecting you to say anything. i just thought you needed to know.
Annie : anyways, we better get back and prepare for dinner with the others.

Annie was so upset inside and stood up to leave. She was heartbroken. As she got off of the elevators on her room floor, she walked slowly towards her room thinking about what Mark said to her about choosing Jennie to date him. Laura was waiting in the hallway for Annie to come back and came towards her as soon as she saw Annie.

Laura (*asks in panic) : what happened ? So did you tell him ?
Annie (*says in a low tone while looking at the floor) : i told him.
Laura (*asks) : what actually happened Annie ?

Annie begins to tear up quietly while looking at Laura sadly.

Laura : that cant be good. tell me what actually went wrong.
Annie : he asked me for my opinion on Jennie.
Annie : i asked why and he said that he wanted to start dating her.
Laura (*asks) : and what did you say Annie ?
Annie : i said that he could do whatever he wants and i will be there to support him.
Annie : i had to tell him about Andrew and warn him that he's making a mistake.
Laura : and he was suspicious of you.
Annie : right. he asked me what secret i was keeping from him.
Annie : i finally told him how much i love him.
Laura (*asks) : what did he say ?
Annie : he asked me 'what do you want me to say?'.
Annie : i said that i wasnt expecting him to say anything and i wanted him to know. thats all.
Annie : i stood up and walked away. im walking away from it all now.
Annie (*asks) : what do i do ?
Laura : you dont have to worry about it anymore Annie.
Annie (*smiles & says) : your right.

Everyone was worried but Annie and Laura went back into the room. Annie and Laura continued on cooking for dinner. After spending the hour cooking dinner, they spent time eating. Everyone was so quiet when eating because they were worried for Annie who looked like she was crying for hours. Annie couldnt even look at Mark while she was eating, she just ignored him completely. They cleaned up the food after eating together. They hanged out for a while and then went to get ready for the club.

[8PM] They all got ready for the clubs. Annie was thinking about it the entire time she was getting ready. She teared up and all of the girls were worried for her. Annie wore a white long sleeve dress with cuttings on the sleeves, beige high heels, hair curled down pretty, white clutch purse. Jennie wore a teal / white embezzled dress, shinny white high heels, white purse , half hair up curled down. Laura wore a black haltred dress up to her knees, hair curled down, black high heels, black purse. Irene wore a black tank top dress with a cut out where her breasts are. They all looked pretty and spontaneous. The guys were dressed in casual and formal suits.

After getting ready, Annie went downstairs to get some fresh air. When Annie got near the bar area, she couldn't help but stop to think about what she had told Mark. She teared up a bit just thinking about it. Then Jennie chased after Annie to see her standing looking at the bar area. Jennie came towards Annie to call her name and Annie wiped her tears away.

Jennie (*calls out) : Annie.
Annie (*wipes her tears away, turns around & says) : what is it ?
Jennie (*asks as walking towards Annie) : what’s wrong ?
Annie : nothing’s wrong.
Jennie : you’re crying. there has to be something wrong.
Annie : no, i’m fine.
