Jungkook packed what he needed for the day, rushing to get to work. He stuffed a banana in his mouth as he ran out the door of his dorm. He told the desk lady where he was going, before running out, trying to catch his bus down to the city.

He was two years into college, a dance major, and his work consisted of cosmetology, meaning he was busy and almost poor. He made his way to the bus station, seeing that the bus was just arriving. He quickly got on, showing his college bus card, and took an open seat. He organized the contents of his bag a little better once he was on the bus, then put some music on, headphones in.

He made sure he had all his makeup, exhaling in relief. The last time he forgot something he paid the price, and he didn't have much money to keep buying brushes he forgot to bring. He checked his phone for the time, before exhaling. He was nervous about today.

He had to rush home after dance practices, the choreography stuck in his head, and take a shower before eating what he could and heading out to his job. Tomorrow was the same.

Except...

Today someone special was showing up for a presentation, and Jungkook was the lucky fellow to be the test subject. He was absolutely dying in anxiety. Jungkook heard his stop and got off, getting to his work.

"H-hey Jihyo, nice day yeah?"

"Jungkook! I'm so glad you were able to be here early. Our guest will be here any minute, are you ready?"

"Is Yugyeom still not here?" Jungkook looked around for his support buddy, not seeing him.

"Not yet. He's getting us drinks first."

"Shit. I'm seriously freaking out, why did he- why did he have to choose me?" Jungkook got his 2Seok name tag on, the biggest makeup brand at the moment, getting behind the counter with Jihyo.

"You've got the best face for his presentation. Besides...having such a makeup icon put makeup on you? What a dream." She melted, Jungkook also. Taehyung certainly was amazing. His brand, channel, and social media accounts were popular, and continuing to get more popular. He was a fashion icon, both makeup and clothes. They were lucky they could hold some of his perfumes in their store.

"But me? You're the most beautiful here."

"I'll be right there helping him." She looked excited. "So it's kinda scary for both of us."

"Did Yugyeom get a part?" Jungkook smiled a little, Jihyo also smiling.

"Nope!" They laughed. "I don't know how he got this job. Probably just has a nice smile."

They snickered. "Probably. At least he's nice. Doesn't know much about makeup though."

"He's a good friend, that's how he got in."

"Oh?"

"Yeah, you know our manager JB? Him and Yugyeom are best friends, kinda. You know, they have their whole group, just like you've got your dance crew. He needed a job, so, here he is."

She nodded along. "Trying to pass the time instead of getting ready?"

"Hell yeah. I'm nervous as fuck. I- I really don't think he should use me as an example."
