It's Complicated || J.J.K

T E N

A full week had gone by and somehow, someway. Areum was able to avoid not only Taehyung but also Jungkook. Yes, she had a class with the younger brother but she forced herself to get there earlier so she wouldn't end up sitting next to him like the first day.
It was a big class, so it wasn't that hard to blend in among the other students.

Today was an exciting day for Areum and she dreadfully needed just one good day. Last week after the whole talk with Taehyung had gone horrible. She fell into a weird, kind of slump. She always felt like crying and any little thing would set her off and she'd be in a bitchy mood the rest of the day.

She had tons of homework, barely any sleep. To put it plainly, she was beyond stressed. But that didn't matter today. Why? Because today was Saturday, which meant no classes and Yoongi had invited her to go see a local rock band play at one of the small bars downtown.

Rock wasn't necessarily her favorite type of genre at the moment but she was definitely open to hear any type of music! Maybe she could even convince Yoongi to buy her a couple shots since it was just going to be the two of them and she still had a year left til she was twenty-one, which meant she couldn't technically buy them herself.

Ji was supposed to come out as well but Namjoon had finally taken her on a real date tonight, so Areum couldn't exactly be mad at her for ditching on their plans. Plus Areum liked hanging out with Yoongi, he was older and more cooler than she was. Surely they were bound to have a great time.

After receiving a text from Yoongi, announcing he was outside. She checked her outfit one more time in the mirror, a red crop top with a corset style in the front, black ripped skinny jeans, lace-up black combat boots with a small heel to add some height and a leather jacket to complete her look. Areum didn't want to stick out too much with her usual pastel color clothing so she decided this outfit would be perfect for the bar they were going to.

"Damn Areum! You look hot!" Yoongi exclaimed from the driver seat as she jumped into the passenger side.

"Hot enough to blend in?"

"Hot enough to stand out" He sent a playful wink her way before starting up the car and leaving campus.

Arriving at the bar, the place was packed. The band must have been more popular than Yoongi described because it took them about thirty minutes to find a free table but it was more located near the entrance, far away from the stage.

"So are we gonna order some shots or..." Areum asked, biting her lower lip and begging with her eyes as she looked at the tattooed man.

"Aren't you considered underage?" He teased but still pulled out his wallet.

"Than why didn't the bouncer mark my hand with an X?" Areum asked while holding up the back of both her hands to show no marks or X's that usually meant 'Minor'.

"Because he was too busy starring at your tits instead of your ID"

They both laughed as he stood up to go over to the bar. Areum continued to scan the crowd. Some sitting at tables and others crowding around the stage to wait for the performance and even more still coming through the door.

About to turn her head back towards the stage, a figure caught her eye walking in, not alone but with a blonde haired girl in a very tight fitting and very short dress hanging on his arm, laughing at something he must of just said. She couldn't help but roll her eyes over how good he looked and she hated herself for admitting that.

His hair was pushed back showing a bit of his forehead, a very nice, white fitted tee that hung sinfully against his muscles and ripped blue jeans and a black leather jacket that hung over his shoulder. He faced her direction but Areum was quick enough to turn her head before he could spot her.

She put her head down against the table which she instantly regretted because it was a bit sticky and chanted 'why me' until cheers starting filling up the bar, Areum looked up to see a group of five guys who must be from the band, getting up on stage and sure enough started introducing themselves.

She clapped along with the audience while trying to spot Yoongi. A breath of relief left her lips when she spotted him making his way back to her from the now packed bar but her stomach turned when she noticed he wasn't alone.

"Hey! Look who I found" Yoongi cheered before gesturing to Jungkook and the girl he had walked in with coming towards their table. Jungkook's eyes landed on Areum and his eyes widened in surprised before slightly tripping on his own feet.

The band was now in full swing which meant it was too loud for any greetings or introductions. Areum tried her best to send a welcoming smile to the couple but it came off as tight lipped instead which Yoongi noticed immediately. He gestured for the two to take a seat on the opposite side of the small table and a shot which they quickly accepted and turned to watch the band. With their backs turned Yoongi nudged Areum and leaned in to whisper in her ear.

"You okay?" He asked concerned but she quickly nodded while squeezing his shoulder to assure him she was fine, not noticing Jungkook's confused expression at their closeness which he only noticed because he turned to put his shot glass on the table.

He turned back around, trying to pay attention to the band Yoongi had assured him was awesome but his mind was too busy questioning himself 'Was this a date? Are they dating?' When Yoongi came up to them as they were looking for a table and offered they could come sit with him, he didn't hear the words 'me and my date'. But than again the music was starting so he could barely hear him at all, Jungkook decided to shrug off the green monster on his shoulder as the next song began.

A/N:
I know, I know this chapter is horrible lmao. But it's mostly because I've had a hard time imagining this story because I have another story on my mind which I am currently writing. I've already written six chapters for it, so maybe it will be published soon 🤷‍♀️. And Yes, it is another Jk story because he has been wrecking me hard lately. Is it hard to believe I'm actually Jimin and Taehyung biased? Hopefully the next chapter wont be so bad ;)
