Kim Taehyung's POV
7:43 pm

"a non-celebrity boyfriend." Doonghyuk hyung whispered to Taeyang.

I was mentally triggered and annoyed at the same time. I so regret going here. But there's no way of turning away now. I'll just have to man up for my reputation and for Joonyeon

Chapter 11

"Ah hey, you forgot to pick a letter." Hyuna said handing us a bowl full of folded papers.

"Uh, what's it's purpose?" I asked.

"I don't know, the host told us to. Just pick a paper and see its letter." I did on what she said. I randomly picked a paper and open it. V, my letter is the alphabet V!

I don't know what the hell it's purpose but the letter V really makes me happy. Come to think of it, It sounded familiar like I've heard it before.— yeah, in the alphabet alright but it seems so strange whenever I hear it.

"CHEERS!" we all toast our glass as we drink the wine that isn't alcoholic of course. I have insecurities with it comes to alcohol. It makes me vomit. And it smells awful! Who the hell would drink such kind of smell?!

I offered Joonyeon a dance as the beat turned into a slow romantic tune.

After our slow dance together, Joonyeon disappeared. I don't know where'd the hell she go and I don't give a damn about it—Because my head is aching so badly that it hurts more than a couple breakups. I sat straightly on my reserved seat and exhaled.

I adjusted my necktie since it was choking my neck and the temperature was heating up. Am I getting sick or something?

Joonyeon then approach to me with a huge smile on her face but faded when she saw me all crap up. "Babe, everything's alright?" she touch my forehead. I took the grip of hers.

"Uhm, of course! Just- uhm sleepy i guess. I haven't sleep for days because of that fucking project." She nodded and grabbed my arm to the dance floor.

"Alright, time to switch partners this time!" Joonyeon pouted as the Host slash DJ announced to change partners. "Find your partner with that letters that I let you randomly choose. And those who's have the same letter will be partners!"

Joonyeon's letter is Y meanwhile mine is V. We both separated ways to find our fated partners. Pfft! The Dj's only making us tired.

Unfortunately, There hasn't been any human that has the same letter as mine! I almost gave up but then I saw a woman went to me. Even though she's hiding her face beneath that mask, I could tell that she's sweating and tired from walking.

"Hey uhm, excuse me but do you have the letter V?" She catch her breath. Finally! My partner!  I thought that Nobody got the letter V.

"Yes! I have!" I showed her my paper with V written on it. She clenched her fists and sighed in relief.

"Finally! Do you know how long I've been looking for you?" She bent down and took her heels off. "Urgh, my legs are tired."

"uhm, do you wanna rest for a while? Your foot seemed to be injured."

"uhm yeh. Thank you." I helped her stand up and walked to the nearest seat.

Awkwardly, we sat apart from each other and looked in different directions besides our faces.

"uhm, my foot's looks fine now."  She bent down to look at her wriggled foot then looked at me. "Hmm, wanna dance?"

I looked at her with my straight blank face. what the heck! She's hitting on me. I mentally facepalm. Oh yeah, I'm her partner.

I accept her offer as she dragged me unto the center of the spotlight surrounded by many rich, famous celebrities.

The air was cold but beneath my skin was extremely hot. I can't tell which if my 'nervous-ness' is the cause or my headache.

Slowly, I reached my hands to her waist. Wow, her waist is quite small than how she looks.

"I'm not a very good dancer tho. I might accidentally step on your feet." she pouted. "Thus, I'm not used in heels."

"That's alright, I got you." she got startled as I tighten my grip on her waist. She nodded as a reply.

Taeyang rushed to the stage, straightly to the piano and sang his iconic song: Eyes, Nose, Lips.

Mianhe mianhe hajima~

I lick my dry lips as we start moving through the rhythm. Despite as partners, we look in different directions, as strangers. Hopefully, the party would end soon cause I'm burning up.

"ow!" She accidentally step my foot.
"gosh, mianhe!" I just gave her a slight nod, trying to hold the pain since the song was almost over.

Once again, she step on my foot. "ahh, eotteo--" Lost in balance, I accidentally slip my left leg causes us to–almost-fall-unto-the-dance-floor but luckily, I held her waist as she surrounded my neck with both of her arms.

"oh shit." we both whispered. Both of  our masks fell unto our necks.

My heart beat quicker than ever. I didn't know what kind of feeling i should feel.

As I looked into her sparkling eyes,

"Dahyun?!"

I knew I fucked up.

"Taehyung?!"
