The Journey Of US || A Seventeen FF

11

Your attention was caught by a particular table, with five girls. They've been actively checking the boys out ever since they entered, and you being you, are not at all interested in it. But what made you uncomfortable was the stares they had on you. They looked at you with disgust and kept eyeing you up and down. And it grew uncomfortable with each passing second. You fidgeted in your seat, trying your best to ignore the stares. Jeonghan who was next to you, placed his hand on your thighs to keep you from moving.
😇You good?
👶Yep,
😇Then stay still, stop moving,
He replied looking around. His eyes locked with one of the girls, who smiled at him, which he returned. He excused himself and walked away and soon the girl did too, while you took another sip of your drink looking away.

😺Love, want another?
He asked seeing you spacing out aimlessly with an empty glass,
👶Yep, I'll go get it.

You walked away as they nodded, reaching the counter you ordered 6 shots of Vodka. The bartender took a quick look at you before nodding off.
"Vodka? That's an odd choice from you. I thought you were a cocktail girl." You tensed up at the voice from behind, trying to control your breathing.
"You look lovely today honey," The man said as he stood beside you, his fingers tapping on the counter. You took a shaky breath and tried to move away, but were stopped by a firm grip.
"I thought I would never see you again in a pub darling. But here you are, after what happened years ago. So if it isn't 'asking for it', I don't know then what is."

"Your order ma'am." The bartender came back with shots of Vodka the man left your hand,  adjusting himself. You immediately took hold of the shot tray and tried to turn around, but were once again stopped by him.

👶What do you want James?
You finally asked gathering the little courage that was left in you.
"Simple honey, I want you. I couldn't taste you last time. But today you're going to be mine,  I'll-"

The next thing you knew was James on the ground, covering his left eye. You looked to your right to see him towering next to you, with a balled-up fist and a deadly glare.

"Touch her and you'll die." His voice echoed through the died-down music. Hearing the commotion boys set out to find what it was. Seungcheol quickly made his way through the crowd to get to you.
👶W-won?
It came out as a whimper from your mouth. His eyes immediately softened and he turned around to capture you in his embrace. You hugged him without wasting a second, as he tightened the hug around you. You snuggled closer to his chest making him chuckle at your behavior.
"Hello to you too!"

You looked up to meet his gaze with teary eyes.
"I thought we promised no tears."
👶It's not because I saw you.
You replied stepping back from his embrace as he frowned at you. He nodded his head as he thought of something before turning around to face James who still hadn't grasped everything that just happened. Seungcheol reached you and pulled you closer to him, without knowing anything that happened.

🍒Did something happen? You alright?
You nodded at him before turning your gaze to James past him.
"Who the fuck are you? One of her customers or so-" Another punch landed on him, this time his nose.
"Don't you dare to say something about her again." He was about to land another punch but you stopped him.
👶That's enough Won.
He looked around and was surprised to see Seungcheol next to you, and so was Seungcheol.

🍒Hyungwon?
"The one and only."
He smiled before hugging the younger.
🍒Waah, Hyung it's been so long, where were you?
"Here and there."
🍒You alone?
He took a glance at you,
"Ah yes, I am. But I'm leaving."
🍒Hyung, come on.
Seungcheol whined
"I have to be somewhere Cheol, I'll meet you soon."
He patted the younger's head making him blush and look away. Hyungwon left you both and Seungcheol led you back to the table.
🐯What was that hyung?
🍒Nothing, just a creep.
🦊Are you alright?
He asked wrapping his hand around you protectively and you nodded.

The boys are acting like boys. Soonyoung is drunk, Seungkwan and Seokminnare getting there, and BSS is being loud. Wonwoo and Jihoon are rolling their eyes for most of the conversation. Jun is talking, talking, and talking. Seungcheol kept his promise and stopped drinking after the third.

🍚Where's Jeonghan Hyung?
🐯He left with a gIRL
Soonyoung blabbed
🍊You make no sense Hyung,
🐯NO, he went with a girl. He walked away, and she followed, ask MiCKeY!

😇Sorry, got caught up with something.
He apologized, interrupting the conversation,
🍚Or with someone?
He raised an eyebrow at him, making him frown
🐯Hyung, did you fuck her?
He asked with half-closed eyes and a smiley face,
😇Fuck who? What are you talking about?
🍒Shut up Hoshi-yah, Where were you Jeonghan?
Instead of opening his mouth to answer, he acted to them which they understood and agreed to.

Where are you, you may wonder. You're lost, you're physically with them but mentally stuck at the incident earlier. The memories of that night kept playing in your head, and you couldn't move, even if you wanted to.

A pair of lips attached to yours, which caught you off guard, you tried to push him away, eyes blurry with tears. And a teardrop rolled out.
⚔️Why are you crying, baby?
You were brought back by his question and you stared at him processing what just happened.
👶Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you were someone else.
⚔️You okay? I'm sorry, I should've asked,
👶No it's fine, I jus-

"Hey, handsome!" A sweet voice interrupted you as you all turned to the origin. A girl in her mid-twenties approached you guys. She was looking at Seokmin.
"Sorry to interrupt, but would you like to dance with me?" She asked with a beautiful smile, which made you smile. Seokmin was gonna reject her, but you spoke
👶Sure. He will. He's just a little shy.
She smiled at you and looked back at him, hopefully. Seokmin turned to you with a glare.
⚔️What's that?
👶Go dance. She's just asking you for a dance, don't think too much.
He left hesitantly, after he left the boys turned to you.

🍚What was that?
👶What?
🦊Are you for real now? She was clearly flirting with him and you let her.
👶You guys are boring. Bro this is a pub, what do you expect here? People will flirt, and it's a one-time thing. Or you can lead them on, that's up to you. And let him enjoy.
🍊You are weird.
👶Why is that?
🍒It's weird, you're our girlfriend and you let others girl hit on your boyfriend.
👶 OK, would you lead them on or keep a distance?
😇Will keep a distance.
👶Exactly, you can flirt around, I don't mind as long as you stay in the line.
🐯Ahh you're the best.
Hoshi pinched your cheeks, before pecking your lips.
😺But we are possessive!
👶I know and I'm not!
