Taehyung followed behind Jimin and stepped inside Yoongis house, the truth is, this is Taehyungs first party, he'd always been too anxious to go to them or to ever drink, he doesn't like the idea of being pressed up against drunk and sweaty body's for the whole night. But this time, he decided to suck it up and force himself to tag along. Taehyung held jimins petite hand tightly as they squished through heated bodies and made their way through the party. The purple and green flashing lights illuminated his gold skin and the blaring music rattled his whole body.

"Don't be so nervous Tae" Jimin suddenly stopped and yelled over the obnoxiously loud music

"I'm fine jimine" Taehyung took his hand away from jimins and begin twisting at the silver rings on his fingers out of pure nervousness.

"Lets go find the others" Jimin yelled again and Taehyung nodded

Soon enough the two had finally found the rest of the group. Stood right in front of Taehyung was Jungkook, Taehyung thought Jungkook was a lot taller than he thought he would be, they were about the same height yet the party atmosphere made Taehyung feel small. Jungkook had a beer in his hand and he was talking to Namjoon about something Taehyung couldn't hear.

"We finally arrived" Jimin yelled and the group all turned their attention to the two. Taehyung felt a pang of nervousness hit his body when everyone looked at him. Jimin quickly ran off and began talking to Jin, that's when Taehyung was left alone.

Just when he was about to turn around and leave he felt a hand on his shoulder. "Don't tell me you're leaving already?" It was the newly familiar voice of Jungkook. Taehyung turned around and faced Jungkook with an awkward look.

"You okay?" Jungkook asked, his face furrowed into a confused expression.

"I'm just overwhelmed...it's my first time at a party" Taehyung looked down at the messy and dark floor.

"Lets go and get you a beer" Jungkook decided and took Taehyung by surprise by taking his hand in his and pulling him through the crowds of people.

"Is your fuck buddy here?" Taehyung shouted over the bad clubbing song that the DJ was playing

"No, she's probably out sucking some other guys dick" Jungkook laughed which caused Taehyung to laugh along.

"I'm surprised you're not doing the same" Taehyung joked and the two boys stopped in a less crowded area

"I couldn't pass up my chances on meeting you" Jungkook shrugged and grabbed a beer off of the table before handing it to Taehyung.

"You could've met me another time" Taehyung popped open the cap of the beer and took a sip

"I couldn't wait" Taehyung raised his eyebrow at Jungkook

"Come on let's dance, loosen up a bit" Jungkook took Taehyungs hand again and lead him to the centre of the room.

"I can't dance" Taehyung complained and Jungkook poked his stomach

"Who cares everyone's drunk anyways" Jungkook pointed to the people that surround the two and begin dancing which made Taehyung burst out into laughter. He definitely felt a lot less awkward with Jungkook. The two danced for a while until their body's ached for a rest. This time, Taehyung grabbed Jungkooks hand and dragged him out of the centre of the room.

"I can't dance anymore" Taehyung giggled, the few beers and shots he had were finally hitting his system.

"look I'm just going to run and find Yoongi, I'll bring him straight back down. I just don't wanna stress you out and pull you through all of these people so just wait here a sec okay?" Jungkook pointed to the staircase and even though Taehyung didn't want to be left alone, he nodded in agreement.

"Stay here, I'll be right back I promise" Jungkook said before leaving Taehyung alone in the corner of the room.

Taehyung waited, and waited, and waited. It'd been over half an hour and there was no sign of Jungkook coming back. Taehyung decided it was time to go and find Jungkook. He sucked in a sharp breath and began squeezing through all of the bodies that pressed against him and moved towards the staircase.

After a good ten minutes Taehyung finally reached the top and he sighed in relief when he saw Yoongi stood talking to Hoseok, he walked over and the two boys looked at him with a smile.

"Hey, have you guys seen Jungkook?" Taehyung panted

"No, why?" Hoseok said and rested his head on his new boyfriends shoulder

"He said he was looking for you Yoongi" Taehyung shrugged and bit his lip out of habit

"Oh, well you can just hang with us until he turns up" Taehyung felt uneasy again but he just pushed past it and patiently waited with the sappy couple for Jungkook to finally turn up.

"Oh look Taehyung he's-wait what the fuck" Taehyung snapped out of his thoughts and looked the way that Yoongi was pointing.

Taehyung chest felt tighten as he watched Jungkook pulling Jimin out of one of the rooms.

A lump in his throats started to form at the sight of the two being so close. It was the way they were smiling at each other and holding hands that struck a chord. The two laughed and smiled as they exited the room, then Jungkook finally looked Taehyungs way and Jungkooks face fell.

Taehyung quickly averted his gaze to the floor and tried to push away the swelling feeling in his chest. He questioned himself why he was so bothered but he guessed the alcohol made him emotional.

"Taehyung-" Yoongi started, placing a fragile hand on the youngers shoulder but the other quickly shrugged it off.
Turning on his heel and quickly heading for the stairs.

"Tae! Where are you going?" It was Jungkook, he grabbed onto his wrist before he could go any farther.

"I'm just going for some air, I'll be back" taehyung said, failing to make eye contact with the younger

"I'll come with you-"

"No I just want some air, I have a headache" Jungkook opened his mouth to protest but quickly closed it at the sight of Taehyungs stressed look behind his eyes, removing his hand from Taehyungs wrist. Taehyung turned away with no other words and once again, pushed through people. The party was dark, no one was able to see the streams of tears that were running down his face.

Why does Jungkook make me feel this way? Taehyung thought. He was supposed to be unbothered by Jungkooks romantic life, but he couldn't help but feel bothered. He kind of hated it, he hated seeing Jungkook with his bestfriend like that. But he just guessed that he was being selfish. He should be happy for them both.

Jungkook waited a long time for Taehyung to come back, he even searched the house a few times. But he never did come back.
