Perfect Fit [hiatus]

Big announcement

Jungkook arrived at the office building early, wanting to wear one of Jeon Fashion House's newest designs to his big night. He had his friend and coworker, Namjoon, come with him to help him pick it out.

"What about this one?"

"Joon it... it has sequins on it"

"And?"

"And i'm the future CEO of the largest fashion house in Seoul not a fucking magician."

"You just don't appreciate eclectic pieces." Namjoon sassed.

"Fine, never mind. Hand me that one there." He slipped on a grey blazer with an asymmetric cut at the bottom and black silk lining the cuffs.

"So, I hear your father has a surprise for tonight. Any idea what it could be?"

"Nope. That man could pull anything but whatever it is, I don't care. He's proud of me and my creations and that's all that matters. Also this one itches, pass me the black one there."

"Stripes or dots?"

"Stripes. Always stripes."

Namjoon nodded in agreement and threw the jacket at him.

"Man I'm nervous. What if this whole thing flops? I mean I've made designs before, but a whole fucking line? Thats intense." Jungkook sighed.

Namjoon smiled to his friend and walked up behind him in the mirror.

"Look, you know i don't give compliments easily, but you're seriously very talented. And very determined. Headstrong too, a little too much for your own good actually. Some days i'd even say stubborn, close minded, sort of a dick- "

"Okay when's the compliment part coming?"

"I was just trying to say, you're a hard worker and you're going to succeed. I've seen your work and I have no doubt that this line will do well."

Jungkook took a deep breath and smiled back.

"Okay, thanks joonie."
"Now come on, party starts in 10 and I want to get down in time to greet all the models." Namjoon winked, adjusting his glasses and fixing his stiff blonde hair in the mirror.

"Going after male or female this time?"

"Dude I keep telling you that's not how bisexuality works. Just, whoever catches my eye, like you are right now in that blazer. Thats it thats the one."

Jungkook laughed. Normally comments like that would make him uncomfortable, but coming from his best friend made it a little more bearable.

They made their way down to the main lobby where most of the guests had already arrived. Jungkook wasn't a fan of crowds so he stayed back by the bar while Namjoon went on the lookout for "his next meal" as he put it. Jungkook ordered a drink, downing it before ordering another. Namjoon was putting on the charm for a group of male models that had just arrived, and jungkook couldn't help but feel a little jealous of how openly flirtatious he was. Even with hard liquor in his system he could never have the confidence of someone like Namjoon. He didn't understand how people did it so easily, so he'd resulted to pouring everything into his work life since he joined the company at 18. No girlfriends, no distractions, just work. And he liked it that way; at least that's what he convinced himself to think.

As Jungkook ordered a third drink, his father went to the platform on the large stair case, ready to make the big announcement. Jungkook walked up to the front of the crowd as his dad began tapping a piece of silverware on his champagne glass.

"Everyone! Please, gather round, I have a very special announcement to make. As you know, my son Jeon Jungkook has been working by my side in this company for a while now, and although his talent and work ethic is undeniable, he had a lot of growing to do."
