The music is so loud and the atmosphere is intoxicating. I am wandering around trying to find my best friend in the crowded room but he is nowhere to be seen. The music that is blasting in the speakers is some kind of energetic k-pop that I would much enjoy under different circumstances, but in the given situation it only gives me anxiety.

Suddenly someone grabs my wrist.

"Hey! Where have you been?" says my squirrel face friend with a big smile that makes his cheeks even puffier.

"Looking for you, Ji" I pull him in an embrace. "Let's find something to drink. I just arrived and I'm thirsty and already tired from all the noise."

"Deal."

We make our way to the bar through all the people that are enjoying the night, dancing like crazy. It is understandable that after all those years, some are excited to meet, but I'm not. I have in my life the exact people that I need. School reunions were never my cup of tea. Also no crowded place, full of strangers, is my cup of tea. Jisung is jumping up and down waiting for our drinks at the bar. We have some shots and after that he becomes even more energetic.

"Please please please please FeeeeeLLiiX. Let's dance." He is moving his hips in circles, lower and lower.

"Please Ji, shut up, I'm not even drunk yet and I'm bored." I say with anxiety in my voice, being convinced that he doesn't hear me because all he does is to grab my waist and move his hands on my butt, tying to follow the rythm of the music.

I roll my eyes and put on a half smile.

"Here you are, party fluffy animal" A voice shouts behind us.

Jisung is now more extatic seeing his boyfrend and instantly jumps with his legs around Minho's body.

"My mad kitten!!!!! Finally." He then jumps again on the dancefloor pulling Minho after him. Minho looks at me and says something with a concerned face, but over the music I don't understand him. He then frowns and turns to the happy Jisung.

I order some more vodka shots and while my lips are touching the clear glass, my eyes are magnetically pulled by another pair of deep black eyes. I freeze there and I turn my back to leave as soon as possible with my legs trembling and the room spinning around me.

"FUCK" I shout to myself. "No, you stupid stupid, fuck..."
