Chapter 8 - Party

"So, Tae, did you select a guy to make out with yet?" Bogum asked when they met outside the house where the party was held. 

"Stop it, Bogum." Tae said. "Or I'll fucking hit you." 

"Sorry, just checking." he said and winked at Tae. 

Jimin smiled a bit, Tae was sulky, but Yoongi looked suspiciously at Bogum. 

"Did you intend to present yourself as a candidate, or what?" Yoongi asked. 

"I'm just saying I'm sure there are many guys who would take the chance if it was offered to them." Bogum said evasively.

It was true. 

Tae was very popular amongst gay guys at the school and also outside it. 

He was spectacularly handsome and charming, he dressed well, danced incredibly and had a smile to kill for. 

If a rumour got out, true or false, that Tae was looking for company tonight, he wouldn't be left alone. Even with no such rumour, he probably wouldn't be left alone, now that he didn't have JK by his side. 

Tae wasn't really aware of that, since he hadn't been out without JK for a long time, and before that he had been in a relationship with Jimin. 

But Bogum knew, and he wanted to make sure that he himself was at least in the competition if Tae was actually looking for company.

JK lay on his bed, but couldn't sleep. 

He got up and looked at himself in the mirror. He looked quite miserable. 

He took off his shirt, admired his own fit upper body and realised he hadn't been to the gym for five days. 

It was in the same building and he decided to head there to try to work some frustration and sadness out of his body.

There was nobody in the gym, he put on his own favourite music and started his work-out routine. 

It felt really good, like getting back to life after having been half dead. 

His energy and self confidence came slowly back. He was starting to think that he made a mistake not going to the party. If he had been there he could have shown Tae what he was losing out on when he didn't want to touch JK. 

He knew Tae loved to see him dance and he imagined himself moving his body in such a manner that Tae couldn't resist him anymore. 

Maybe he'd just go up to his room, have a shower, dress up and go to the party after all.

Hobi was already at the party when Jimin and Yoongi arrived with Tae and Bogum. 

They didn't see him where he sat with his friends from the choreography class. 

He saw Bogum give Tae a drink, while Yoongi and Jimin got up on the dance floor. 

Hobi watched them intensely. He liked them both so much. They used to be such good friends, the three of them, until he fucked it up by kissing Yoongi. 

Jimin seemed to be in a good mood tonight, laughing a lot and showing off. Yoongi laughed with him.
