He cut her off in between and looked right into her eyes.
"You want me to strike a deal with you?"
He raked his eyes over her from head to toe and said, "Fine. Sleep with me and I'll consider not taking over your company. As simple as that."

There was a cold breeze and snow crunched under her heavy boots. She stuck her hands deep into her pockets to keep them warm. Her footsteps suddenly stopping in its track as she triumphantly smiled at her own clever question. Taehyung had pulled Kira out of the cosiness of the resort with the promise of food and they both walked, feet sinking on the snow. He suggested a game where they ask each other questions, for which they must answer truthfully.
A lot of both their secrets had been spilled and by now, it was a just a competition to see who would expose the other more.
"Have you ever, at least drunkenly, slept with Jungkook?" She asked, smirking. His reaction wasn't strong as she'd hoped it would be but watching his tall frame stiffen in surprise did make her smile.
What she didn't expect was him to smirk back and say "Yup. Twice, actually." Kira's hopes of seeing a blushing, stuttering Taehyung backfired completely. His absolute confidence turned her cheeks flush instead. Taehyung laughed at her face, completely enjoying her change of expressions.
"The first time we did it; we were both drunk beyond our minds and remembered absolutely nothing. If I remember right, there were women too. But the second time, we weren't too drunk. We knew what we were doing then but we didn't bother caring about it much."
Kira was sure her ears were as red by this point too. "Why not date him?"
"He doesn't exactly like relationships; neither did I for that matter." His laughter ringing in her ears as he pinched her cheeks. Kira thought she was reading into the lines too much, but the past tense in his case seemed a little suggestive.
Kira kept quiet, unsure of what to say.
"So, tell me, Minjee. Have you slept with Jin?"
Kira gasped out of reflex, unable to even imagine it. She should have known that her question was going to come back and stab her in the back. "No way!" She shrieked.
"Oh come on! Not even a drunken fling?" He chuckled.
"Nope. Na-uh. I've never slept with Seokjin. I swear." Kira protested.
Taehyung was not convinced with her answer. "You've lived with two guy best friends your whole life. It's hard to believe that people as close as you have never had an accidental night."
Kira kept quiet at that statement. Her already red cheeks blushed even more furiously.
"Wait a minute. Hoseok?" He probed.
Dammit.
Kira took a deep breath before nodding unwillingly.

Kira sat by the corner, having resolved to drown her misery in alcohol. The whole house was filled with drunkenly dancing people. A bright board in the centre read 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIM SEOKJIN' and sure enough, he was dancing contently with a bright pink feather boa hanging loosely around his neck. At least, he was having fun.
