the up club was full of techno, cheap music blasting and sweaty bodies drinking up any alcohol in sight.

and in the corner, crouching in fear, was a dark haired boy unable to stop his trembling hands from shaking faster and harder than an earthquake.

why did i come? he thought.

because you are stupid.

he closed his chocolate eyes tightly, trying to regain his shaky breathing.

you can do this, jungkook.

come on. prove to yourself that you aren't some shy freak who panics at the slightest things.

jungkook squeezed his fists, opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was a woman smirking at her glass.

america is a weird place, he thought.

but for some reason, she captured his eyes. her tight curls caressed her face ever so gently, face bare, expect for the blood red lipstick coating her soft-looking lips. not only were her features ever so beautiful to jungkook, but her skin was a mocha tone, one he rarely sees in korea.

but he found it undeniably beautiful.

and as if she sensed someone staring at her, she turned around, only for her eyes to meet his.

jungkook panicked, his anxiety prickling his skin.

he wasn't good with people in general.

the smirk that she held earlier, came back as she got up from her seat and made her way over to jungkook's corner.

jungkook felt his heart race as she came closer.

she kneeled down to his crouching height, but her curious eyes didn't make him feel as he wanted to crawl in a hole and die, instead, her hazel eyes made him feel like he was in a cozy, warm coffee shop.

"you okay?" she asked.

jungkook's thoughts went back to the bullies who were making fun of his anxiety.

a surge of confidence burst through and jungkook asked with a hint of a stutter (and a slight, yet cute accent), "c-can i buy you a drink?"

the gorgeous woman's eyebrows rose and she chuckled at his sudden question, "no-"

instantly, jungkook's small moment of confidence plummeted as he wanted to shrink in a black hole of embarrassment, his eyes avoiding her laughing ones.

why the hell would i even ask that? his thoughts made him shrink in more embarrassment.

"-but you can buy me a triple cheese burger."
