Put A Name To A Face

By the time the boys arrive at the location of the party it's almost 9pm, the house evidently full of life, music pouring out of it that can be heard streets away. "Wait, I got you something" Yoongi says, stopping Kook from leaving the car by grabbing onto his forearm. He takes out a piece of jewellery from a bag under his seat, black leather with a metal heart shaped design in the centre. "A choker?- Are you nuts? I'll definitely look like a hooker" Kook complains but doesn't resist as Yoongi puts the choker on for him. "Shut up doofus, it's for sex appeal" Yoongi explains making Namjoon choke on his drink. "What the fuck" Joon chuckles, "the boy doesn't need anymore sex appeal Yoongi". "Uh yes he does, he's going to get Pretty Boy's dick today" Yoongi scoffs, flicking Namjoon on the forehead before opening the car door, "get out then idiots". The trio leave after parking close by, walking towards the mansion-looking-house. Once they enter, they realise it isn't as packed as they imagined, probably because the house is massive as it is. Yoongi finds a few of his other friends, introducing Joon and Kook to them. "Didn't know Yoongi was such a sociable person" Joon whispers to Kook, earning a soft chuckle; "only with a select few to be honest" Kook replies, looking around the room for the bar area and possibly a certain Pretty Boy. "Yoongi, we're getting drinks ok?" Kook says while dragging Namjoon away from Yoongi's little crowd, Yoongi nodding in approval. Kook wasn't too great with crowds usually, neither was Yoongi to be honest but if Yoongi was comfortable around them, Kook was sure he would warm up pretty quick as well... he just needed a little bit of liquid encouragement today. Kook and Joon make their way to the impressive home bar area in the kitchen, mixing themselves a few of their favourite concoctions as well as one for Yoongi. They return to Yoongi to find him in a deep conversation with a girl they don't recognise. "Oh thanks" Yoongi says, looking up at the boys and taking his drink. "Ah this must be Kook?" The girl beams up at Kook and Joon, her smile brightens the whole room, filling Kook up with warmth. "Yes, that's me, nice to meet you...?". "Call me Hobi, I'm today's host" she extends a hand for Kook and Joon to shake. "Namjoon but you can call me Joon". "Nice to meet you both, hope you enjoy the party" Hobi says, getting up off the sofa to allow the other two to sit down. "I'll be right back" Hobi shouts as the music begins to get a little too loud. "How did you two meet?" Namjoon asks Yoongi, clearly confused about how such opposite personalities would've become drawn to each other. "Uh- I know her boyfriend sort of. She's actually really cool, she's a dancer and she's into music so we just hit it off." Yoongi responds, taking a sip of his beverage, "ooh, nice" he says, sighing happily as the alcohol runs down his throat. "Yoongi... to your left- dON'T make it obvious but that girl is definitely checking you out" Joon chuckles into his drink. "Hm meh, I'm not feeling girls tonight" Yoongi shrugs, unbothered.
Not long after they spot Hobi on the dance floor, a boy wrapped around her waist, pulling her in close as they sway to the music. "Boyfriend?" Joon questions Yoongi, "yeah, hopefully they'll come over after they stop eating each other's faces, he's uh... cool" Yoongi sips his drink again, hiding a smirk with his cup. Kook doesn't understand why until Hobi and her boyfriend come over. 'What the fuck' Kook's brain screams. "Guys this is my boyfriend, boyfriend meet Yoongi aka music boy and his friends, Joon was it? Yeah, Joon and Kook". Jungkook freezes on the spot. "Ah coffee boy, nice to formally meet you" boyfriend extends his hand, smiling that sweet smile Kook remembers from earlier today. "H-hi" he manages to spit out weakly. "I'm Jimin by the way", finally an actual name for Sunshine Smile. "Jungkook" is all Kook manages to say, swallowing hard.
'This makes so much sense. Sunshine Smile with someone like Hobi... wait Sunshine isn't gay? So... Pretty Boy isn't taken??'
Jungkook's train of thought is broken by Jimin suddenly shouting, "Ah you made it! Taetae come here" Jimin waves crazily towards the front door. "Hey yes, sorry, I lost track of time" the deep, familiar voice responds, reaching for a hug from Jimin, pulling Hobi in too. "You look cute" he says handing over a bag of drinks to the host, "I'll just put my stuff upstairs and I'll be back" and with that Pretty Boy turns away without acknowledging Kook's existence.

The group splits, Hobi and Jimin back on the dance floor once again, Kook, Joon and Yoongi sipping drinks on the sofa watching as people mingle, laugh and enjoy the party. "So... you knew? You knew he'd be here?" Kook questions Yoongi. "Yes and no... it was a hunch. I took my chances" Yoongi shrugs as if it were nothing. "Yoongi... you're the fucking best?!" Kook scoffs, "fucking unbelievable, you are". Yoongi, Joon and Kook get up to refill their drinks and before Kook can join the 2 on the way back to their seats, he's stopped by someone gripping onto his sleeve. He turns around to find himself facing Pretty Boy, his mouth watering, throat clogging up and breath begins to get unsteady. "Hi, sorry, I didn't get to introduce myself before" Pretty Boy says into Kook's ear, the music loud and resounding in their eardrums. "I'm Taehyung, you're a friend of Hobi's?" Pretty Boy now known as Taehyung questions, still holding onto Kook's sleeve. "Uh, friend of a friend... I guess." Kook somehow finds his voice. "Nice, so... got a name Coffee Boy?" Tae asks, laughing as he makes his way to the bar, a nervous Jungkook trailing behind. 'Coffee Boy? Jimin called him the same thing..' "It's Jungkook.. or Kook or whatever" Kook says, nervously filling up his cup with anything he can find. "Ok Whatever," Tae says playfully, not an ounce of nervousness in sight, "wanna dance?". "I- wh—at?" Kook chokes on his drink, unready for the question. "It's a party, loosen up" Tae laughs, taking Jungkook's drink and replacing it with his own hand, dragging Jungkook towards a more secluded area of the dance floor. "I can't 'loosen up' without a drink" Kook responds, chuckling at how straightforward the other was being.

Jungkook doesn't remember much after that. The rest of the night is a blur. He loosens up a little too much. All he remembers is black. Then waking up in someone else's bedroom, wearing someone else's clothes.
