"Hey Kook!" Taehyung calls out to him at the cafeteria as he sat there waiting for the next class.
"Hey..." Jungkook greets his friend with a weak smile, not quite sure why he's being extra cheerful. "You look happy..."
"I am Kook... and you should KNOW why right?" He wiggles his brows at Jungkook with a mischievous smirk on his face.
"Enjoy your party, Tae..." Jungkook says, shaking his head to the idea of yet another frat party going down tonight. Another awesome night to get wasted and laid as Tae puts it.
"Oh come on! Don't tell me you're sitting this out again?" Taehyung asked in exasperation, missing his party buddy.
After just a few months of being freshmen in college, Jungkook and Taehyung have been invited to all the frat and sorority parties ever thrown. Four years later, they haven't joined any frat but was still being invited to every single one of their parties.
Jungkook wasn't sure either why students kept on inviting them when these parties are clearly exclusive for members. Somehow, he felt like the guys have granted them an honorary place in the frat, giving him and Taehyung full access to the frat house and its amazing amenities.
Taehyung on the other hand has made sure to ENJOY not only the frat house amenities but also the perks that came with it. Free booze, food and noncommittal hookups every Fridays.
"I'm already stressed out with a ton of projects... I don't have time to party." Jungkook says before getting back to his book.
"This is our last year in college life!" He would always blurt out. "Get your dick out there and relieve your stress with some senior pussies!" Taehyung says in exaggeration. He knows Jungkook's been to a few hookups but he's the type who doesn't kiss and tell so Taehyung isn't sure if he's dipped in to any of them.
"I can take care of my own stress Tae..." He says confidently. "Besides, we can't just continue to hang out in frat parties especially if we never joined one... ever."
"Dude, this isn't just any frat party! It's a confraternity meetup!" Taehyung says in full disclosure.
"A what?!" Jungkook asked in confusion.
"Let me enlighten you my dear friend... there's a frat or sorority party then there's a CONFRATERNITY party!" Taehyung went on to explain that the latter is an ultimate event when upcoming applicants for the frats and sororities are invited to join.
"This means a lot of naive fresh meat in the mix!" Taehyung says with pure excitement written all over his face.
"You're aware you just sounded so perverted right?" Jungkook asked his best friend.
"That's the fun part Kook... even if I act perverted, no one will judge me... why? Because we're in college baby!" He gives out a loud growl to which Jungkook just shook his head in disbelief.
That night, Jungkook decided to get home and just skip the party. Taehyung will never let him hear the end of this but he needed time to rest. After having a quick dinner with his parents, Jungkook decided to get some fresh air at the backyard.
He was playing catch with Bam, when the huge dog suddenly went over to the fence separating them and the neighbor. Jungkook jogged over to see Bam giving the stick to you instead.
"You unfaithful mutt!" Jungkook glares at Bam playfully as the dog appeared to be smitten by you.
"Oh he just has good taste..." You snap back at him with a smirk.
"Or he may be after that doughnut." He gestures to your half eaten doughnut that Bam is clearly eyeing.
"Awww you're busted big buddy!" You playfully tease Bam before giving him a piece of that sweet goodness.
"Hey not too much okay? I can't have him bug me all night because of sugar high." Jungkook being a good dad to Bam, gets to his side and makes sure you don't spoil him too much with sweets.
He noticed you're with some friends as he sees them waive at him from the benches by the pool. "Late night pool party?" He asked.
"Not tonight... we're just having a sleepover, that's all." You said in a shaky voice which Jungkook noticed right away.
"Okay... just keep it down at midnight onwards." He says that winking at you so cutely, you almost wanted to jump over the fence and throw him a tight hug.
Few hours later, Jungkook was already in bed when Taehyung's name suddenly flashed on his phone. He knew he'd be looking for him at the party and he wasn't in the mood to explain where he is so he just ignored the call.
Taehyung kept calling until he finally gave up and that's when a text message came through.
<📲 Text exchange>
Taehyung: "The f*ck? Why aren't you answering my calls?"Jungkook: "I'm not in the mood Kim."
Taehyung: "Is that so? Well let's see if your MOOD improves when you hear what I have to say."
Jungkook: "Yeah right? What could you possibly have there that can change my mood?"
Taehyung: "Hmmm I don't know Kook... maybe Yoongi's precious little sister in a freaking confraternity party might do the job!"
*******
🥴 "Ohhh... someone's in trouble!"
