Falling To A God's Hand [62°]

inspired by: frank sinatra's songs in the new joker movie

"Look at my hubby! Ain't he just look dashin'?" Everyone's attention lands on Korain who bursts through the door with Jeongguk on his arm. Korain was grinning, showcasing Jeongguk for everyone to see him in his costume and a mask over his eyes. Their outfits were both color coordinated; a royal blue vest with a white lining. The only difference was that Jeongguk's vest was blue with a white long sleeve dress shirt while Korain's vest is white with a blue dress shirt. Also, Korain has a cape because he's extra.

Jimin and Yoongi were idled by the entrée table; Jimin's gaze plastered on me while Yoongi was practically chained to his side. They were wearing similar outfits to one another as well; their theme a dark red and black.

Hoseok, Namjoon, Seokjin, and Baekhyun were either conversing with one another or walking around to make sure everything was set; they were also in costumes.

Taehyung walks up to me, a crooked smile on his face. Taehyung and I's theme was gold and white. Korain wanted that color at first, there was an argument, some words were said, and now we have the color. "What do you think? Too much, too little?" I smile, observing everything. Like Korain had wanted, there were servants walking around to serve guests food on silver platers, live music, people dressed up and wearing masks--the whole shabang. It's really not something I'm interested in, but I couldn't just tell Taehyung that.

"I like it. Thank you for throwing this party." He nods and grabs my hand to guide us over to our table. I look around at the random guests in the ballroom. I have no idea who these people are and how Taehyung managed to bring people in to this institution. Do they even know it's an institution? Are they as evil as Taehyung used to be and that's why they're here?

Hoseok and Namjoon come up to us to see if everything is okay. Taehyung looks toward me for any complaints. I shake my head and he waves his hand, dismissing them.

Korain and Jeongguk had already taken the dance floor. I can tell Korain made Jeongguk the lead while he followed. I notice Yoongi asking Jimin if they could dance and is now being shut down. I wish I could go over there and take Yoongi away from that bastard, but Taehyung nor Jimin would like it.

"Do you want to dance?" I look up at Taehyung standing up now beside me, arm extended toward me as an invitation. I hesitate to answer him, cascading my eyes toward Korain and Jeongguk again; worrying my bottom lip. Korain was grinning, staring at me as he raises his eyebrows up and down. Jeongguk turns around to see what he was looking at. We make eye contact before he turns back around. I couldn't make out what he was saying to Korain, but then he's directing him and Korain away from me.

I pry my eyes off Korain and back onto Taehyung. I grab his hand and stand up, putting on a front and accepting his offer to dance.

"Mr. Kim." We turn around to see Namjoon with a few unfamiliar faces behind him. Taehyung looks over at me and apologizes, telling me to hold on for a second before he's greeting the two males.

Jeongguk pulls Korain over to the table filled will different arrangements of gourmet food; servants coming over to put even more plates down. He gets Korain away from y/n, knowing that if Taehyung were to see what his brother was doing Taehyung's mood would immediately alter for the worse. Jeongguk warns his lover to not do anything reckless tonight (Korain making no visible promise to stop his teasing).

Jeongguk turns away for a second and Korain has already locked eyes on his new target, "accidentally" bumping into him when being pushed off by his significant other. The man apologizes, regarding his clumsiness. He was an older man. Maybe mid 30's, early 40's. Korain always did have an interest in older men. Especially older men with facial hair; expressing the maturity they held on their face.
