"We're going to a nightclub??" Jungkook asked, getting out of the car with Taehyung.

Taehyung smirked, nodding as he ran a hand through his long hair. He walked over to Jungkook, resting a hand on the small of his back and leading him up to the door.

The younger blushed faintly from the touches, yet nonetheless letting him lead him inside since it was a new area and he didn't know where to go.

Taehyung went up to the bouncer and greeted him, telling him the password.

Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows, curious as to how the older knew how to get into places like this.

The outside of the club was very discreet, it was hidden in an alley and Jungkook almost overlooked it if it weren't for the neon sign above the door saying 'Street Rats Club.'

It made the younger a little bit uneasy due to the fact how hidden and shady it seemed, although he knew that he could trust Taehyung enough to not be taken to a sketchy club.

The bouncer opened the door and they headed inside. The entire club was filled with hazy purple and red neon lights, curved couches everywhere for lounging, and a big stage to the left. It was crowded, filled with men and women.

But there was something different about them.

The more he looked and paid attention, the more he saw men holding each other, making out, drinking together, dancing together, and vice versa for the women. Some of the men were very feminine, with makeup and thin, sheer clothing, heels, nail polish, and more.

Jungkook looked up at Taehyung, shocked. The older had brought him to a gay bar.

"T-Taehyung, this bar is illegal!!" He whisper shouted.

The older looked down at him, smirking and shrugging. "Oh well." He said.

Jungkook scoffed, looking around some more. Taehyung's large hand was still pressed firmly against the small of his back, keeping him close as he led him over to the bar.

Some guys would eye Jungkook from a ways away, sending him winks or waving at him.

Jungkook blushed and looked away, staying close to Taehyung.

"Why did you take me here?" He asked once they were sitting at the bar.

"Change of scenery. This is also my favourite place to party." Taehyung replied, ordering them both some drinks.

"But I'm not.. queer." Jungkook muttered.

"You don't have to be, you can still come here and have a good time. Just wait until the drag queens start performing. It's awesome." Taehyung said with a smile.

"Drag queens?" Jungkook asked curiously, but before he could get a reply the music stopped and the lights on the stage turned on.

Taehyung just smirked, diverting his attention to the stage.

Music began to play, Jungkook watching as a woman strutted out on stage in high heels, big and dramatic hair, with dramatic makeup on. "Woah, she's pretty." Jungkook hummed.

Taehyung just chuckled to himself. "I agree. That's Princess."

Jungkook nodded, entranced as Princess began dancing on stage and lip syncing to some rather suggestive music. She was dancing rather lewdly as well, causing Jungkook to blush.

"What is a drag queen?" Jungkook asked, still focused on the performance.

"Well, usually it's a man who dresses up in women's clothing and has very dramatic hair and makeup, and they perform or entertain." Taehyung explained.
