Flirting On The Rocks [JD]

The air was warm, the rhythmic crash of waves mixing with the bass of the music playing in the background. Phuwin's beach party was in full swing, and everyone seemed to be having the time of their lives, dancing, laughing, and drinking to their hearts' content. Dunk had just arrived and, looking around, noticed that all his friends were either caught up in the music or scattered in the crowd. Deciding he needed a drink, he strolled over to the bar.

The bar was packed, but it seemed like most people were already taken care of. He waited a few moments, scanning for any free bartenders.

After a while, one caught his eye-a tall, dark-haired guy who seemed to notice that dunk standing alone. The bartender made his way over with a charming smile.

"Hey there, you've been waiting long?" the bartender asked. Dunk smiled back, shaking his head.

"Not too long, just figuring out what I want."

The bartender-Joong, according to his name tag-smirked, leaning closer over the bar. "Well, I'm good at helping with that. How about I make you something special, something that fits your... look?"

Dunk raised an eyebrow, intrigued by Joong's smooth approach. He leaned a bit closer himself, playing along. "Oh? And what kind of drink would that be?"

Joong's eyes flicked up and down, as if sizing him up. "Hmm... something bold but refreshing. Maybe a Mojito, or...," his voice dropped slightly, adding a flirtatious undertone, "margaritas?"

Dunk bit his lip, holding back a laugh before delivering his reply. "Why not give me 'Sex on the Beach'?"

Joong froze, his flirty demeanor faltering for a split second as his mind clearly raced in confusion. "Huh? I uh..."

Dunk couldn't help but giggle, relishing the sight of the confident bartender suddenly at a loss for words. "What's wrong, Mr. Bartender? Aren't we talking about drinks here?"

Joong blinked a couple of times before snapping back into action, realizing Dunk was just teasing. His lips curved into a sheepish grin. "Oh y-yeah, of course. One Sex on the Beach, coming right up."

While Joong busied himself mixing the cocktail, Dunk leaned on the bar, quietly watching, amused by how flustered Joong had become. After a few moments, Joong slid the drink over with a smile, but Dunk had already noticed the slight blush on his cheeks.

Dunk took the glass, his fingertips brushing Joong's as he did. "Thanks," he said, offering a wink before turning on his heel and disappearing into the crowd to find Phuwin and the others. Behind him, Joong stood frozen for a moment, watching as Dunk melted into the sea of dancers.

Hours passed, and as the night began to wind down, the partygoers started to disperse. Dunk, tired from dancing and a few drinks in, found himself walking near the bar once more. To his surprise, Joong was still there, packing up and getting ready to close down for the night.

As if fate was pulling them together again, Dunk accidentally bumped into him. "Oh, sorry about that-" Dunk began before pausing when he noticed it was Joong.

Joong gave him a small, knowing smile. "No worries. Party winding down for you, too?"

Dunk tilted his head, grinning as he eyed Joong up and down. "I see the way you've been looking at me, Mr. Bartender."

Joong visibly stiffened, quickly trying to maintain his cool. "Oh? What do you mean?"

He won't deny that he was eyeing him on the dance floor.

Dunk can't know that he really wanna devour him up.

He just can't—

Dunk stepped a little closer, his voice lower, laced with playful intent. "Why don't you grant me one last request for the night?"
