"Artist"

Party Pt. 3 Chapter 16

A couple of minutes later, you pull up to a maze made out of bushes, flowers, and weeds. You all pre-game by taking beer and soju shots, and then you all line up at the entrance to the labyrinth. There are 5 entrances to the maze. Someone shoots a gun into the air, and Taehyung grabs your arm, pulling you into the maze. As you reach a circular path in the labyrinth, he stops and lets go of your hand. You look around and see four other ways to go. "Which way?" you hear Taehyung say to your right. You turn to look at him, and he's already looking at you. "What do you mean, which way?" you ask. "Well, we are in this together, so you have to pick too," he says. "But you've done this before, I haven't," you say, looking at the path to your left. 

"Okay, but they change it every year," Taehyung says. You don't look at him, you look at the other paths. You notice the one on the right in the corner goes left five feet in, so you turn and look at Taehyung. He encourages you to go, and he follows you as you move to the left in the maze. However, it takes you back to the circle you were just in. You look at Taehyung, and he suggests going left, so you both head left. After a long straight path for ten feet, you come to a fork in the path where you have to go right or left. "Which way?" Taehyung asks. You think that if you go right, you'll be heading back to where you entered, so you both head left. You come to a part in the path where you can go left or straight. There's a path going right off the straight path, or you can go right. Taehyung suggests going left, but it's one of the ends that if you go down there, you have to take a shot. So, you and Taehyung both take a shot and head back to the center. You take the path straight but then go right, which takes you in a complete circle. You're both laughing. "Well, there's only one way left," you say. You head straight for about fifteen feet, and you can either keep going straight or turn left. Taehyung continues straight, and you hit another dead end and take another shot of soju. You start giggling, and Taehyung asks you what you're laughing at. 

"I think we are gonna get so drunk we are not gonna know how to get out" You laughed, walked away, and headed back down toward the right. Taehyung grabbed your wrist and turned you around. You looked straight up into his eyes. His hands felt like they were burning your skin where they were placed on your hip and the other one on your neck. He leaned down with his lips only a couple of inches from yours and said, "You know all of the boys have a thing for you, but I feel like no one has a chance other than Namjoon." You stared down at his lips while he was talking, and once he was done, you leaned in and pressed your lips to his. You felt a burst of energy coming off of him and put your hands on his neck. He kissed you back, but he was hesitant like he was holding back. When you tried deepening the kiss, he pulled back. "You're drunk Y/N," is all he said. "I know what I'm doing," is all you managed to get out. "I don't want this to happen when you're drinking, plus I want to be sober," he said. You guys were in the maze for another ten to fifteen minutes. Neither one of you had talked, and you finally reached the end. Everyone had already made it out of the maze. It looked like you heard Taehyung say to your right, "I'm guessing we got last," but he didn't say it to you; he was mumbling to himself as you walked to the others. 

Seo-Joon said, "We were about ready to send people in to look for you," as he laughed. Taehyung asked him, "Why would we need someone to come look for us?" Seo-Joon proceeded to tell us that we had been in the maze for an hour and twenty minutes. When your eyes met, you dropped your gaze to the ground. They all started walking somewhere, and you did not want to be stuck behind Taehyung, so you followed Seo-Joon as they all headed toward a different part of the party that you hadn't seen before. There was a small building that looked like a miniature version of the mansion. Everyone went inside except for you and Taehyung. He stopped you by grabbing your elbow, and you asked him, "Is something wrong?" He told you he wanted to know if you wanted to go do something else. You asked him what was next, and he told you it was a changing house to change into swimsuits because the next activity was a water game. You reassured him that you wanted to.

You headed into the girls' changing rooms, and Taehyung headed into the boys' changing rooms. Once you were inside, there were racks like a little boutique and couches. There were a couple of girls over by the mirrors fixing their makeup. You looked through all the racks full of swimsuits, and once you found a black bikini, you headed over to one of the stalls to change into the swimsuit. After changing, you headed out and found Taehyung waiting for you by the door. When he turned and looked, he smiled at you and looked you up and down. "I like it," he said, and you both started laughing. "I like the trunks," you joked and walked off to one of the four pools outside to start playing volleyball with Seo-Joon against Taeyung and another guy named Ho, who had been hanging out with you guys all night but never got introduced. You had never really played volleyball, so Seo-Joon helped you out. You missed the first two hits and on the third one, you hit it, but it didn't make it over. On the next hit, you hit it and Taehyung bumped it across to you, which you missed, and the score was 4-1. You and Seo-Joon wound up losing 25-10, no doubt because of you. 

they want you to play again after downing A soju and beer you try telling them no and they protest not playing until you join you tell them one more because you suck Seo-Joon lets you serve and it makes it to Taehyung and he hits it back then to Seo-Joon. Ho is on Taehyung's team he has long black curly hair that goes down to his cheekbones he is skinny but has abs and is wearing green and pink swim trunks he misses Seo-Joon's pass you go back and forth for a few minutes and the score is 7-5 Seo-Joon lets you hit a pass to Ho and you jump up to hit it back and Ho misses it again and Seo-Joon picks you up to celebrate and spins you around both of you smiling from ear to ear. you spot Tahyung from the other side his eyes narrowing at you. you wonder if he's jealous

Seo-Joon and you wind up winning 25-22 "I'm gonna go find a bathroom" you tell Taehyung and one of Taehyung's friends is yelling at him that he needs to come play or his ass is going back to the bar to do shots Taehyung ignores him "I can come with you" he suggests
