I fix my hair and check for lipstick on my teeth before walking inside. Hoseok said it was gonna be him, Jimin and Joon. Before I could even spot them, I just faintly hear my name over the blaring music as saw my friends waving me over. I walk up to them and it was almost as if they couldn't keep their eyes off of me.

"I take it that Taehyung didn't see you before you left." Jimin teases and I smile and move my hair behind my shoulder.

"Of course not. He would have made me wear sweats and hoodie." I say and we all sit at a table, me and Joon next to each other and Jimin and Hoseok next to each other.

As we hang out I scan the club and noticed a couple of familiar faces. Jun and Dae-Hyun. I look back at my group and Hoseok tilts his head.

"What'd you see?" He asks and I look up at him.

"Oh nothing." I say and he looks my direction and spots Jun. He hums before shrugging.

"Nothing much I see." He says and we order some food.

"Dance with me mama!" Jimin says as our favorite song comes on. I laugh as we both get up.

"Be careful you two!" Joon calls out as we head to the dance floor.

As Jimin and I dance with each other he gets close to my ear as I could hear him speak.

"Have you told him?" Jimin asks and I cut my brows not knowing what he was talking about.

"Told who what?"

"Hobi hyung that you like him."

"No why would I tell him? I ask and he shrugs.

We both continue to dance and once the song was over Jimin takes my hand and spins me around and places his hands in my waist so we looked directly in each other's eyes.

"Taehyung wont be too happy. I don't like keeping secrets." He says and I sigh and grab his hands and twirl and he brings me back to where my back was now to his chest as we rocked.

"Okay just give me some time alright? It's hard for me to come out." I say and twirl out of his grip and he takes my hands again and we both continue to dance.

"Alright. Let's head back."

We head back to the table and both men clap. We playfully bow and sit down. Our food was given to us and we start to eat. It was a lot better than I expected honestly. A couple hours into the night I head to the restroom. Coming out Jun stops me. I try to walk around him but he stops me once again.

"Jun I do not want to speak." I say and he huffs.

"I get that but let me explain." He says and I roll my eyes and walk away when he grabs my wrist.

"Jun let go." I say but he keeps his grip on my wrist.

"Bro let go." I say, my English coming out and he let's go.

"You ruined your chance with me Jun. Its better we act like we don't know each other." I say and walk out, shoulder bumping Dae-Hyun accidentally in the process.

"Hey watch it." He says and I pause in my tracks. I take a deep breath and continue to walk, not even wanting to be in their presence.

"Hey what took so long?" Jimin asks and I shake my head and order a drink.

The night goes on and the drink come on and in. Some people decided to do karaoke so I decided why not. I have nothing to lose anyways. I sling back another shot and head to the stage.

As we watched Lyra get helped into the stage I sat back in my seat and put the straw to my lips as she picks a song. The beat catch my attention and I sit up as she starts to sing Cause I love you by Lizzo. She was actually quite good and this was the first time I have ever heard her curse. She sang with such power behind her voice almost as if she wasn't drunk. As she sang I couldn't help but tell that there was a meaning behind every time she said I love you. I set my drink down and keep my eyes on her.

"Cause I love you." She day as our eyes meet as she gives a slight smirk.

"Oh yes you." She confirms winking before dancing to the beat. I see Jun getting held back by his friends but I wasn't provoked by someone like him. My mind was only on my best friend's drunk little sister on stage.

As she sings the last lyric of the song she sets the microphone back on the stand and grabs it with both hands as she places her forehead in it. I quickly get up and jog to her aid and she leans into me and groans.

"Let's get you home." I say and help her off the stage.

"Hoseokie." She hums and I look down at her as I help her to the table to get our things to leave, Jimin and Joon clapping for her applause before heading to their designated driver since they got to the club before I did.

"Yes?"

"I....I love~" she trails but before she could finish she falls asleep against me.

I take my jacket off and place it on her to cover her up. I then carry her out the back and to my car. I help her inside and get in the drivers seat. As I drive I sigh and lean back and drive with my right hand.

"Why must you be Taehyung's sister?"

I take her home and unlock the door. I make sure not to make a lot of noise and take her to her room. I look around and found makeup removing wipes and clean her face off. I sigh and kiss her forehead and write a small note for her before leaving.
