Stray Kids & Ace Oneshots (bxb)

Seungjin

"You didn't tell me we'd be going to a club", Seungmin whined, playing with the edges of his long sleeved black pullover. "We knew you wouldn't have come if we'd told you", one of his friends, Jisung, spoke up. "Besides, you really need to let loose for once. I swear the only thing you do in your free time is study and listen to Day6' music". Seungmin looked down at the pavement, letting his friends drag him along. 'Honestly, they aren't wrong', Seungmin thought to himself. He didn't go outside very often, unless it was to go to school of course, but he was still slightly annoyed that he wasn't told anything beforehand. "You could've told me we were going to a crowded place at least. Now I haven't had any time to think some optional conversations through". "You really worry too much", another one of his friends, Woojin, said, slinging his arm around the younger's shoulder. "Besides, we will be there with you, so you won't be alone and if anything goes wrong, you can just come to one of us. Who knows, maybe you'll even find yourself a boyfriend", the older smirked, nudging Seungmin slightly, who just tsk'ed at his hyung's childish behaviour. "What", the older replied slightly offended, placing his free hand on his chest in an overly dramatic way. "It's definitely possible," he continued, ruffling the younger's newly dyed red hair, "you look quite hot tonight". Seungmin pushed his hyung away from him before hiding his face in his hands. "He isn't wrong", Chan, who had been quietly eavesdropping on their conversation, suddenly spoke up, making the younger groan. The group chatted away loudly, excitedly walking towards the club in the centre of town. Seungmin lagged behind the group, listening to what everyone had to say as well as imagining different scenarios that could happen tonight. He suddenly felt a hand on the small of his back as a figure appeared besides him. "Are you alright", Felix whispered into his ear, softly rubbing the redhead's back. "Yeah", he replied, releasing a shaky breath he didn't know he was holding. "You sure? You seem extremely tense and nervous", the blonde probed. "Lix, I'm fine, just a little nervous, as you just pointed out". Seemingly satisfied with Seungmin's answer, Felix started up a new conversation about Day6 with the redhead, trying to get him to feel more comfortable by talking about his favourite band, which Felix assumed worked, as the nervous glint in Seungmin's eyes was quickly replaced by excitement paired with a huge smile appearing on his face.

Sadly, Seungmin's happiness was short-lived. As soon as they entered the club, his smile faltered, loud noises attacking his eardrums and the crowdedness making him feel like he was suffocating. Suddenly, he felt a hand wrap around his wrist, slightly tugging him along. His eyes met Chan's, who motioned his head in a way to tell Seungmin to follow him. The younger obliged and ended up somewhere on the slightly quieter side of the club, accompanied by the rest of his friends, except for Jisung and Minho, who were already dancing together on the dancefloor. Seungmin's nerves were on an all-time high as he scanned his surroundings, coming across nothing but unfamiliar faces. The club smelled of alcohol, sweat and cologne and it was extremely hot. Searching his pockets, Seungmin found his trusty earplugs, quickly putting them in his ears to somewhat dampen the noise. His friends were stood in a little circle, Seungmin only now noticing that all of them had drinks in their hands. 'I'm not that thirsty', he told himself, already shaking at the mere thought of navigating through the crowd, walking up to the bar and ordering a drink.

Seungmin ended up sticking by his friends, their group getting smaller and smaller as more of them left to go dance. Eventually, it was only Woojin and himself left, the rest too busy with their boyfriends. "I'm gonna go grab myself another drink", Woojin yelled in Seungmin's ear, trying to make himself heard over all the noise around them. "I'll come with you, hyung", Seungmin yelled in response, tightly gripping the elder's sleeve. The older just sighed in response. "Go have some fun Seungmin, the only thing you have done this evening is stand silently in one spot", Woojin encouraged, pulling his sleeve out of the younger's grip. "Please don't leave me here alone", Seungmin whined in response, once again taking a hold of the elder's sleeve. "Nothing will go wrong, I promise. Now let go of my sweater and go talk to someone or something", Woojin said, starting to get annoyed by his friends childlike behaviour. The younger let go before quickly walking away, tears threatening to spill from his eyes. Now he was all alone and his hyung was angry with him.
