Drum-roll please!

Please enjoy the chapter meanwhile!

Delicious...

Oof...

This one was doing a number on V. Never had he been this hyper-focused on anything.

V was eating up the image of this beautiful stranger like a man starved for too long.

It needed to be done, now.

V moved to the empty stool that sat between them taking the remaining shot of tequila with him.

"Sounds like a rough day." – He stated when the stranger shifted his gaze to him.

Jungkook fell into it, straight into the trap that was V's eyes. He was about to shut down the attempt at the conversation as soon as he heard those words. He did not owe anyone his story. But then those eyes, those foxy eyes. He decided against it, though he was unable to stop himself from giving the man a sassy glare.

"You could say that." – Jungkook answered as his shots were placed in front of him. He wasted no time with downing that first shot either. He hissed as the drink made its way down his chest.

That put a smirk on V's face.

"Hm. Looks like it too." – V says cockily. That just rubbed Jungkook the wrong way.

"Well, my guy, you're not doing a good a job of hiding your shit day behind that smirk either, so I'd cool it with the judging." – Jungkook sassed.

"Oof, feisty too." – Jungkook made a face at that. Maybe he was too quick to attack. It wasn't this guy's fault that he had a crap day.

"I'm sorry." – Jungkook sighed and rubbed his face aggressively, before popping back out to look at V. He really was teasing V. Whether he knew it or not was irrelevant. – "It's really been a shit day." – Jungkook continues and shoves the second round of tequila in his face and sends it down. He couldn't help another hiss at the burn of it as it traveled down to his stomach once more.

"You don't sound like you're enjoying your drinks." – V states and takes his second shot.

"Well, that's because I don't drink for fun. Not really doing this 'cause I enjoy it." – Jungkook defends his lack of drinking skills as he starts tapping his fingers on the bar top.

"If you don't enjoy drinking then why are you doing it?"

Jungkook stops tapping his fingers and looks at V.

"Am I being interrogated or something?" – He asked, annoyed with yet another person that seemed to be thinking they get to decide what is right for him and judge him.

"No man, I'm just trying to make conversation. We're both here alone, and we've both had a rough day. Why not just hang out and wallow in this shit show together?"

V raises his eyebrows in a suggestive manner, hoping Jungkook would take him up on his hopefully appealing offer.

"Ugh." – Jungkook grunts and drops his head. – "As I said. I'm having a day."

"Wanna talk about it?" – V suggests.

"I haven't had nearly enough of these to be able to do that." – Jungkook says as he points to his now empty shot glass and smiles.

Now that smile was something. Jungkook's face lit up, despite the swollen red eyes, and roped V in more than before. V couldn't ever remember the last time he was this infatuated with someone. He didn't even remember if he was ever this infatuated... unlikely.

"Then how about we order a few drinks and head to the couches, we can talk if you want or we can just drink and let loose. What do you say?" – V was itching to get the yes, while looking into Jungkook's eyes, trying to come off as inviting and friendly.

"Sounds like a plan." – Jungkook says and the corners of V's mouth stretch instantaneously. – "What're you thinking for drinks?"

"Tell you what. You go find us a free couch and I'll grab us a couple of drinks and join you. Want shots or cocktails? "

"Um. Let's do cocktails. We'll be talking; it'll be nice if we sip something and have a conversation."

"Cocktails it is then."

The two were on a couch with their drinks in no time.

As soon as V sat next to Jungkook, the latter asked – "So, you wanna tell me your name? Maybe we should introduce ourselves before getting wasted together... Now that I said it out loud, this sounds like a really bad idea." – Jungkook giggled and continued – "For all I know, you're a creep and I'm putting myself in very vulnerable situation."

V couldn't help the chills that went up his spine when he heard that little giggle and as Jungkook was done with his words, he couldn't help but smile. At least he had some common sense. What if he really was a creep and Jungkook made it this easy to pick him up? Should he be allowed, V would make sure this boy never makes this mistake again.

"I'm V." – He stretches his arm and presents his hand. – "And you are?"

Jungkook takes his hand and shakes it – "I'm Jungkook."

"Well it's very nice to meet you Jungkook."

"It's nice to meet you to V. But I have to ask. V? Like a letter V? Or is it short for something?"

"No, it's just the letter V."

"Hm. You're getting shadier and shadier. Maybe I should rethink this." – Jungkook jokes and starts sipping his drink. V doesn't like that joke. He mirrored Jungkook and started with his drink as well.

"To be fair, I don't know you either, and I'll be drinking with you too. What if you are a creep? Am I in danger? "

Jungkook giggles once more and that puts V's smile back on his face. – "Well, I did not invite you to join me. You're the one that invited me." – He points to himself, very happy with himself for cornering V in the 'argument'". He was starting to feel the effects of the alcohol he's been consuming and he was right; the more he sucked the straw and got alcohol in his mouth the more courageous he was becoming.

"True, true, but you agreed so quickly. For all I know, you lured me in and manipulated me into inviting you."

Jungkook belts a laugh. – "If that were to be true, you would need to be gay for it to work and I would need to know that."

"And so what if I were. Would that be a problem?"

Jungkook chokes a little on his drink, when those words caught him off guard. V hoped that didn't mean what he feared it meant. After all, he was betting on Jungkook being gay for a while now. Why else would he let V pick him up? Or maybe he wasn't aware that that was what was happening here?

"No, no that would not be a problem; definitely not for me. No judgment here." - Jungkook tried his best not to show it, but he was beaming. Today of all days... Just the thought of the first random stranger he met was ready to defend gays on this day. Maybe it was a sign. Maybe everything would be alright after all. He was so happy he failed to even consider what else that question could mean.

V puts the straw of his drink in his mouth while the pace of his heart beat started picking up at the admittance of acceptance from the boy he was trying to impress. Things were looking good for him. He looks back at Jungkook with sure fire in his eyes that matched the one in his soul that was burning for Jungkook right now.

"That's good; because I am... I'm gay."
