You gave me back my laughter,

You gave me back my smile.

9.

Jimin bounced on the balls of his feet, trying to reach Yoongi's height as they were pushed together in the crowded room. Whoever's idea it was to invite dance-machine Park Jimin to a college party was obviously disappointed. Jimin was dancing like any normal young adult at a party, slightly bouncing and swaying. Yoongi, who was in charge of holding their drinks was trying to match Jimin's style.

"You wanna go find Namjoon!?" shouted Yoongi over the music. Jimin nodded.

"Yeah!" shouted Jimin back and let Yoongi lead him through the crowd and to the staircase where Jin was leaning against the railing while Namjoon 'danced' with Hoseok.

"Enjoying the party, Jin!?" asked Yoongi. Jin grabbed a shot from the table and drowned it with a wince.

"Nope." he said and continued to stare into the void of people. Jimin shrugged at Yoongi who was snickering and the two decided to move on. They walked into the kitchen to find Jungkook and Taehyung, both completely waisted grinding on each other over the island counter.

"Hyungs!" cried Jungkook, swatting Taehyung away. "Great party, huh!?"

Jimin shrugged again. He'd never been to one of the famous Jackson Wang's parties but so far, he was coming to see what all the hype was about. The music was good, the house was big, and somehow, in the small living room, the lighting was remarkably professional.

"Yeah!" shouted Yoongi, grabbing a water and handing it to Jimin. "No more beer, okay!?"

"Okay!" Jimin agreed and took the water. In the next room, they found the host and his friends in a sort of gaming room.

"Yo, Park Jimin and Min Yoongi, right? You're with Namjoon!?" asked Jackson, walking over to them. They nodded.

"Well then let me introduce you to the theatre department! We got Jinyoung, costume crew chief, Jaebum, sound crew chief, BamBam, director for this seasons play and upcoming musical, Yugyeom, assistant director and ex make up crew chief, and my boyfriend Mark who runs lights!" explained jackson. Jimin nodded, that explained the nice lights.

The group of boys waved at them. They waved back.

"What musical are we doing!?" asked Jimin.

"We're deciding between 'Anything Goes' and 'Bye Bye Birdie'!" said the one named BamBam.

"I'd love to audition when the time comes!" grinned Jimin.

"Once the semester starts, we'll announce it!" grinned BamBam. Jimin nodded.

Jimin and Yoongi retreated to the upstairs where they were able to climb out onto the roof above the sunroom bellow. Yoongi sighed, falling to lie on his back beside Jimin, staring up at the stars above.

"Who knew driving all this way into the suburbs would be so nice?" sighed Yoongi, glad to be away from the booming music. Jimin agreed.

"I know. I was just planning on spending tonight working on music but when Jin asked us to come along I thought, it's the last week of summer vacation, why not?" smiled Jimin. Yoongi intertwined their fingers and squeezed his hand.
