Worthy Of Love

After Party

Olivia

"To Olivia and J.P!" Yoongi toasted and everyone cheered around.

It was finally the day everyone was waiting for, the premiere. The past two months have been hectic, the promotions were done, so much content was shot, so many interviews and press conferences and events and what not. Tonight, it all came to an end.

We were back in my house, everyone and their mothers was in attendance of the premiere but the group decided to forego the after party because I feel like everyone in the crew wanted for it to just end and go home and relax. We were all in our comfy clothes, atleast all the ladies were. I wore a comfy T-shirt and shorts after getting out of the dress which was one wardrobe malfunction away by popping a boob out. Some of the boys were in their sweats, like Yoongi and Jungkook, the rest decided to stay in their trousers and shirts while the suit jackets, ties and the shoes rest somewhere out of sight.

Alcohol flowed freely as a barbecue was set up in the backyard, Jimin popped the first champagne in celebration of the first worldwide production by J.P was out in the world and after that everyone went to drink different things, Jungkook stuck to his highballs while Yoongi, Yuki and Sakura stuck to their neat. Namjoon was a thorough wine drinker, especially Korean wine, so he bought some expensive bottles to grace us with his collections. Hobi, Taehyung and Areum were happily drinking their wines along with Joon while Caro and I stuck to our rum and lemonade.

Not one person was standing straight or thinking straight after the first hour into the party. Yoongi and Jungkook made sure there was ample amount of meat and Ramyeon to go around as everyone went quiet while eating except a few moans and exclamations about how good the food was. Taehyung made sure we had muskmelon wrapped in Jamon and brie cheese as our siders with the drinks.

Board games came out, Uno was picked as the choice of deliberate end to friendships and relationships tonight. Jungkook and Caro almost killed each other, not letting the other win. Areum was picking on Namjoon with more skip cards than we knew to have in deck. Sakura and Yuki were on each other's neck while the rest enjoyed the scene unfolding in front of us. Despite everyone's fight, I was a four time champion of the game, each time, more enjoyable than the last. Everyone thought I was a fool for playing the way I did until I wasn't and at the end I was banned before the table was flipped.

By the time clock hit midnight,the cards were left on the table, music surrounded us, Jungkook graced us with his beautiful voice and we learnt that Jin also had the chops to become a ballad singer.

Amidst that, throughout the night, Jimin and I sat at a close proximity. It wasn't uncomfortable or anything, just two friends sitting next to each other. But I don't know if it was the excessive alcohol in my bloodstream or just that I felt a bit jealous of all the couples around us who were cuddling but I ended up cozily putting my legs over on Jimin's lap. He raised an eyebrow at me and I just replied with a shrug. Being the only ones on the full size couch gave me the leverage to lay down halfway as my legs rested on his lap.

My friendship with Jimin had grown in some sense, we didn't meet often outside of work but memes were shared, cute cat videos were sent and pictures of food were also sent as a way to tell the other how good one of us was eating. He also sent me pictures and videos of his niece which I would watch whenever I was down on serotonin. Other than that, we didn't see each other outside of work. Partly because we are busy people in our own ways.

But right now, the haze of alcohol made it very easy for me to interact with him. Maybe I was feeling a little risque, a little flirty and he was the only eligible single guy in the room who I could flirt with. Hobi and Taehyung would shoot my flirting down immediately, I know that because I have tried and have failed. I had no intention of embarrassing myself further.
