The party of five mismatched guests was exactly what it was. Mismatched. It went fine during the cake cutting and the lunch. The trouble began when everyone sat down in the living hall to interact and have a good time. Jungkook tried to think of topics that would keep everyone entertained. But there was very little to keep a a couple of teenagers, a cop, two primary school teachers and a publisher engaged.
The conversation had circled from Hawaiian pizza and Mint chocolate ice cream to MBTI and pandemic predictions. Turns out Jin hated Mint Chocolate with a passion just like Joon while you and Tae were open to the choice.
"Let's play a game." Jimin said excitedly hoping to turn the evening entertaining.
"And what game do you propose? Mind you that we have two minors here." You said as you had an idea of what a chill birthday party with Jimin involved could entail. He was not one for PG 13 games.
"You are no fun." Jimin was quick to remark and you knew that he had some inappropriate game in his mind.
"Come on Gomo, it's not a big deal. We are turning 18 in like two more years. And it's not like we haven't seen or know anything." Jungkook whispered the last part and you were taken aback by the boy's response.
"Well we could play a censored game of Never Have I ever or Truth or Dare." Jin offered acting as a mediator between the multiple opinions.
"Truth or Dare does seem like fun." Maria said earning the complete attention of the birthday boy.
"You think so?" He asked earning a nod from her. "Then it is settled, we are playing truth or dare." The boy declared only for you and Taehyung to interrupt. "The censored version!"
"Okay okay, now let me get a bottle." The boy was quick to be off and get a bottle to start away with the game. With the birthday boy privileges he had assigned himself to start the game.
"Jimin Samchon, truth or dare?"
"What's there to ask? Dare it is young man."
"Oh I have a good one. I dare you to drink something we are gonna make with random things."
"What?!"
"Why do you wanna back out or something?" Jungkook asked with a smirk earning a few chuckles.
"You wish. Bring it on."
If you thought Jungkook was a pure soul, well you thought wrong. Seeing him mix Spicy sauce with vinegar to create Jimin's mystery concoction had you praying to the heavens. He insisted on adding dishwashing liquid too which was quickly discouraged by Jin and thankfully the boy had obliged.
"Here you go. JK's special cocktail." Jungkook offered the dark brown liquid to the man who had no clue as to what fate had in store for him. In a matter of seconds, the house was filled with the screams of one and the laughter of the others.

After a series of harmless questions and Jimin who swore to never pick Dare again, the game ended and the teenagers decided it was time for some movie and fried chicken. And somehow everyone ended up agreeing to the movie 'Angus, Thongs and perfect Snogging' with no objection whatsoever which greatly surprised you. But you didn't have any expectations after hearing the title. The little smile and pat on your shoulders by Jin told you to let go for this once and let the teenagers have their fun.
As the movie played on, you wondered how this boy was even aware of this movie. In the end you came to the conclusion that it must be Maria's favourite or else there was no reason for him to choose a cheesy movie instead of a Marvel movie. He must really like her. You were busy pondering about it while looking at the teenage couple who seemed to be very engrossed in the movie.
"He's a simp for her, no doubt." Jimin whispered in your ears earning an elbow from you.
"Ouch, I was only telling the truth." Jimin cried in fake pain while you rolled your eyes.
The movie ended and you kept wondering how the parents were fine with watching their kid snog a guy at her 16th Birthday party. You would never be that cool. Was Tae cool with that? You looked over to Tae who looked shocked and more on the edge of flabbergasted. He stood up abruptly and headed to the kitchen. What is with him?
"I think we should check on him." It was Jin who said it and he seemed to have noticed Tae's strange behaviour.
"Come with me, please. What if it is some guy thing?" You said looking at Jin with hopeful eyes.
"What guy thing could he have in his mid-thirties?" Jin asked confused.
"I-I don't know, you tell me. You are a guy." You said in panic.
"I will assure you that there is nothing like that. But I will come along if it somehow is a guy trouble like you said." Jin said following you into the kitchen. Taehyung was gulping down wine like water and he did not look okay.
"Tae, what's wrong?" You asked softly approaching the guy.
"Oh god, it's you. Sis, I have a son and I have no idea what to do!"
"Haven't you had a son for like 16 years now?" Jin asked even more confused than when he had entered the kitchen.
"I know that genius. What I mean is like he is at that age you know. When I was his age I was such a terrible fuckboy. What if he has a girlfriend? Is Maria his girlfriend? Didn't you see that movie? What if he goes kissing around? What if he does it with her and gets her pregnant!? Oh my god, this is all too much for me. I need another bottle of wine."
"I'm pretty sure you are overthinking this Tae. And he's just 16." You said tried to assure the man.
"Oh, you have no idea." It was Jin and Tae who blurted out together earning a confused look from you.
"And even if he has a girlfriend, what is so wrong with that. He is a good kid and I don't think he is anything like you in that aspect."
"Yeah, the kid is a good one. He even chose the movie his girl seems to like and was holding hands like a cute couple. Did you see how he was giving her all the olives and mushrooms in his pizza because she liked them a lot? He's a good boyfriend."
"Does this mean I have to give him the 'flowers and bees' talk?"
"Well, did someone give you the talk?"
"What? No. We had other stuff- shit! Does that mean he watches porn?" Tae asked shocked only for you to turn red and look away embarrassed. He was a teenager and he could be watching porn for all you know but you couldn't imagine your Kook doing that. Why do kids grow up? Ugh!
"Are we gonna watch porn next?" A forth voice chipped in between your conversation.
"NO!"
