You reached the room with the beer pong table set up to find Tae and Jimin there already, taking test shots and messing around, both of them laughing.

"Gray! Hi!" Tae said when he spotted you, Jimin quickly standing from where he was bent over in laughter. He cleared his throat and looked slightly embarrassed but didn't say anything. "Oh - why are you and Hobi holding hands?" Tae asked with a frown.

"We're on a team," Hoseok said with a smile, holding your hands up. "Sorry Jimin."

"Oh - if you guys were going to play together I can watch!" You said quickly, taking your hand out of Hobi's. You missed the way he frowned at the loss, but Jimin shook his head.

"Um - no, that's okay Gray, you guys can play, I'll watch this round," he said shyly, stepping back.

"Are you sure?" You asked, setting your beer down on the table. He nodded so the guys shrugged and started the game.

"You guys can go first," Tae said, rolling the balls across the table for the two of you to grab.

"How charitable of you," Hobi replied, rolling his eyes. He shot first - and missed. You shot, bouncing the ball off the table and then into a cup. Jk and Tae blinked in surprise that you made the first shot. You grinned.

"Now boys - tell me if the house rules are different here, but normally when I play this, when you make a bounce shot you get an extra cup," you said bracing a hand on the table and leaning forward a bit.

Tae was still looking at the table in surprise and Jk reached for the cup, laughing and scooping the ball out before drinking it. "Okay, I'm in, let's play with your rule."

"Okay. I get to pick the extra cup since I made the shot. Also, bounce shots can be blocked to avoid the double cup. We don't have to count this one since you didn't know the rule," you said, standing up straight again and gesturing slightly as you spoke.

"We'll count it, you've got a handicap anyway," Jk laughed, gesturing at Hoseok who scowled. "Which cup do you want?" You pointed at one and he passed it to Tae, who drank it. He shot then, making the cup easily. Hobi took it and drank it. Tae decided he'd try his hand at the bounce shot and you saw him planning, so as soon as it hit the table and bounced back up, you swatted the ball to the side, knocking it off the table and away from your cups.

Tere was a chorus of whoops from the other boys as Tae opened his mouth, poking his tongue into his cheek in amused annoyance and you smirked at him tilting your head to the side.

"She got you Tae," Jimin said with a laugh from where he was leaning at the side of the room.

The game proceeded, Jk and Tae rarely missing, Hobi rarely making it. When he did make a shot you cheered and he threw his arms around you in excitement, jumping up and down. He let it go but his hand lingered on your waist after, giving your hip a little squeeze as you shot your ball. He was a beer and a half in, plus the tequila and seemed to be feeling it a bit, his hand resting lightly on your waist. You sank your shot and Hobi cheered happily, tugging your back against his chest and giving you another celebratory hug from behind. You grinned and looked up to see Jungkook scowling at Hoseok's hands spread over your waist and you rolled your eyes at the younger boy and leaned back into his roommate, placing your hands on his and meeting Jungkook's gaze.

As the game progressed, Jimin moved closer to the table, a beer in his hand, and other boys began to trickle in and watch the game. Somehow you got them down to two cups and you and Hoseok with only one, and it was your turn. Hobi shot and missed and you exhaled, squaring up toward the cup. Jk and Tae were frowning worriedly at the other end of the table and Hobi slipped his hands to your shoulders, squeezing them in a light massage.

"You got this babe, I believe in you," he said, standing close behind you, his breath stirring your hair. You nodded and he stepped back, giving you space to aim. You tossed the ball up, but it banked off the rim of the cup and bounced out, "Dammit!" Hobi yelled exaggeratedly, making you laugh. The two of you high fived anyway, entwining your fingers as he laughed loudly and Jk easily sunk his ball. You grabbed the last cup, drinking it in one gulp and Hoseok's hand once again slid to your waist. His touch comforting, and everything about being near Hobi made you feel relaxed.

"Wow I actually cannot believe you came that close to beating Taekook single handedly," Namjoon said from where he stood at the side of the table.

"Hey, I helped!," Hobi pouted. You patted his back.

"He did help," you defended. "He was great," you said, turning to him and putting a hand on his chest. He brought his own to cover it, smiling at you.

"So you brought card?" Jk interrupted, making you look away from Hoseok.

"Oh yeah - I used to play Kings a lot at my last school, so I thought I'd see if you guys were interested," you told them.

"I love that game," said a new voice from behind you. You looked over your shoulder to see a tall, devastatingly handsome man standing in the doorway. his arms were stretched above his head, fingers gripping the doorframe as he leaned forward lazily. He had full, rosy lips and pretty, dark eyes, his brown hair falling over his forehead neatly, his raised arms made his shirt ride up just enough to see the edge of his underwear peeking out under his jeans. Your breath caught in your throat as his gaze met yours and he smirked at you. Something radiated from him that made you want to do whatever he may asked - but luckily he just winked and dropped his arms to his sides before stepping into the room.

"I don't know how to play," Jimin said pouting slightly.

"Yeah I've never heard of it," Yoongi agreed.

"It's easy. We just need lots of booze and to sit down somewhere probably," you said.

"Alright, everybody get a couple drinks and we'll go to the table," Namjoon said.

Jimin caught your arm as you went to follow the others and you turned back to him.

"What is it Jimin?" You asked, tilting your head.

"I just wanted to uh... apologize. For last time," he said shyly, rubbing the back of his neck.

You frowned. "Why are you sorry?"

"I just - didn't know Kookie was having company over or I wouldn't have been like that - I don't like to meet people for the first time when I'm...uh..."

"Little? It's okay Jiminie, I feel small sometimes too. There's nothing wrong with it. You were very cute," you said putting your hand on his arm reassuringly.

"M-Minnie was c-" he started, his eyes going wide, but then he stopped, shaking his head. "Don't - you'll make me slip and I don't want to, I want to be big tonight."

"Sorry! If you want to be big I'll try and help. Why though?"

"I want to drink and I always cry if I drink when I'm little," he said, sounding embarrassed. "And-" he took a step closer to you then, softly touching the back of your hand and then trailing his fingers up over your wrist and along your forearm. "I'd like to get to know you a little better tonight," he said, his lower lips slipping between his teeth, his eyes burning into you.

"That would be nice," you agreed, stepping closer to him, not at all intimidated by his gaze. The last time you had seen Jimin he had been in what you assumed were his pajamas- but today he was wearing tight, ripped jeans and a small white T- shirt that rested just at his waist, his dirty blond hair that styled back from his forehead, silver glinting in his ears. He was just as hot as every other guy in this house. And you certainly wouldn't mind 'getting to know him' like he was insinuating. His hand was lingering on your arms as he moved another step closer to you when Jk suddenly poked his head back in the room.

He glanced between you and Jimin in annoyance but didn't say anything, and Jimin looked back at him, not stepping away from you.

"You guys coming? Let's get fucked up!"
