Chapter Text

It was 7 p.m. on a Saturday evening.
The campus was more crowded, and louder than usual. Everyone had come back from their holiday. The library, and the cafés were almost full of students. Y/n didn't know how people could immediately get used to the feeling or the environment again, but that was the least of her concerns since her friend had barged into the room two hours ago, and let her know that they were going to a 'welcome back' party held by some other students from their year.
When she finally decided what to wear, her roommate sighed in relief. "God, y/n I told you, you would look good no matter what. Can we go now?" With one last glance at the mirror, y/n turned her way to Iseul and smiled. "You know, this is partly your fault, you invited me last minute. I'd be ready by now if you told me sooner." Iseul chuckled while wearing her high heels which looked terribly uncomfortable. Getting out of the dorm with jokes, both of them hit the road with giggles.
The road was upholstered with stones, which made noise with every step. Came close to the fraternity building, the step noises smothered by the loud music, and the surroundings had a bolt of better, colorful gleam. Knocking on the door made no sense since no one could hear it with that busting melody. Y/n set her hand on the plank surface, and pushed the door open as the aura took hold of them. The brunette led the way, slid through the crowd, and finally made it to the point where her interest was. Y/n followed her path and her sight was into this extensive, dimly lit room that weirdly didn't contain that many people compared to other rooms.
Y/n wasn't sure why her roommate had chosen this particular room to spend the night in, but she decided that it would likely be better than being squeezed in between a bunch of intoxicated college kids. She looked around the space, soaking it all in. The area included a coffee table, and a black couch in the center with a pool table behind it, a few band and basketball-related posters on the walls, and two desks and chairs on both sides. "You remember Yoongi, right? The guy I've been telling you about?" She did remember Yoongi, since after they met a few weeks ago, her roommate began gushing about him nearly every night. "Of course I do, you're constantly talking about him," y/n responded with a smile as she playfully rolled her eyes. Iseul took her arm, and pulled y/n towards the small group of friends instead of continuing their frisky banter.
Y/n slumped into the seat as Iseul's grasp on her arm softened and latched onto the blonde's instead. As the alcohol fragrance filled the room, she cast a glance at the stranger sitting beside her. "You don't seem the type to attend a party like this," she scoffed as she turned her head to the boy. His dirty red hair fell in front of his brown, long-lashed eyes, and he had a stubble on his face. "It's not nice to assume," a cocky voice was raised right behind her before she could answer for herself. The voice belonged to an attractive guy that seemed familiar. He was seated on the arm of the couch as his hand on the backrest supported his weight. Y/n could feel the proximity of his body. He shot a smirk her way, "I'm Jeongguk, and the jerk is Hwan" said with a slight nod. Y/n replied back with her name.
"You with Iseul?" Jeongguk directed the question at y/n. She nodded, glancing toward where her friend was. Iseul was giggling with Yoongi, and some other two guys y/n didn't know. "Yeah, who are the other two?" She inquired. "That one's Hoseok, and that's Jae. Our friends from the basketball team," Jeongguk answered. Y/n tilted her head to the side, "Oh yeah, I think I saw you play before," she hummed. "Uh oh, the menace is coming our way." Hwan nodded toward Jae. "What do you want?" Jeongguk laughed. "Now, what is a college party if no one's getting high, right?" He chirped with a big grin on his face. "Hey, Hobi close the door." Hoseok strode to the door to shut, and lock it.
Jae took the small bag out of his jacket, and threw it on the coffee table. "How do you keep finding this shit?" Yoongi questioned, as he pulled Iseul to his lap. "Does it matter? You're still gonna take it." He shrugged. Jae handed everyone a pill, then chugged his own with his beer. Y/n took a glimpse at Iseul with hesitation. "What, you gonna pussy out?" Hwan took the piss with a shit-eating grin. "No?" She wasn't going to 'pussy out', she has done drugs before, but taking something a stranger has offered didn't quite seem reasonable. "Hey, you don't have to." Gguk quietly whispered in her ear. She didn't realize how close he had leaned in until she turned her head to see him better. Jeongguk would count as a stranger too, but something about him seemed reassuring. Y/n smiled, and took the pill.
Everyone was doing their own thing. Yoongi and Iseul had left the room fifteen minutes ago to go to god knows where, Hwan had left to get drinks, Hoseok and Jae were playing beer pong.
"Do you know how to play pool?" Jeongguk slurred after a few minutes. "I mean... I do, but I wouldn't call myself an expert," she giggled as she answered genuinely. Jeongguk extended his hand as he got up, and encouraged her to take it. Y/n took his hand, which led him to pull her to the pool table. Jeongguk pulled out two cues, and gave the other one to her. "Ladies first," Jeongguk winked. Y/n leaned in, and positioned her cue by making her hand a closed bridge, aiming at the white ball. When she could finally hold a stable angle, she shot the break shot with a rapid movement, colorful balls hit the railing of the table. The purple-based, striped ball fell into the left corner pocket, making her own the striped ones. Y/n rose while keeping her vision on the table, though Gguk's eyes were on her. "Beginner's luck, sweetheart." he provoked. After an eye roll, she took a good look, and decided where to position herself, so she slid between the table and the buff body. She was aware of the influence she had gained upon him, and the way he didn't even hide his grin proved her thoughts right.
Missing the second shot, it was the boy's turn this time. The girl stepped aside, and let the taller one make his shot. She also had started sweating, and didn't know if it was because of the pills she took or simply Jeongguk's existence by her side. Her eyes tried to stay on the game, although she failed to reject her intrusive thoughts. On the first strike, two lows found their way to the side pockets. Jeongguk flashed her another smirk with leaning on the side rail. "Good one," she replied to the smile with a compliment while propping up her posture with the cue stick. Too much confidence ended up in a mistake, which was a scratch. It's like the courage shifted, y/n came close to the railing and took the object ball out of the pocket while keeping her sight at his eyes. Placed the white ball wherever she found useful, she bent over to the head railing.
Jeongguk's eyes weren't trying to be subtle as they gazed upon her body. Right before she could take her shot, y/n felt two big hands brush against her hip. "Are you thirsty?" Jeongguk's voice was low, she was certain only she could hear it. Y/n straightened her stance, "Are you trying to distract me so you don't lose, Gguk?" She didn't know where the nickname came from, perhaps the pills induced her confidence level. "Gguk?" Jeongguk chuckled, and raised his eyebrows. Or perhaps they didn't induce her confidence level that much because the moment Jeongguk acknowledged the little nickname that slipped up, a small blush crept up her neck. "Drinks you were saying?" Y/n started walking away from the pool table, expecting Jeongguk to follow. Which he did.
Jeongguk kept his hand on the small of her back the whole time they were walking to the kitchen area. Packed hallways, and hammered people made it harder for them to walk apart from each other. When they finally made it to their destination, y/n jumped on the counter. At the same time, Jeongguk opened the fridge to get some cranberry juice, soda, and ice. Then, started going through the alcohol stash to find something to his liking, couldn't find the drink in there, so he turned his back and reached for the cabinet. His shoulders were broad — she couldn't help but vision her legs lying on his shoulders like they weighed nothing. When he found what he was looking for, y/n watched as his hands mixed the liquids together. Her mind couldn't help, but wonder how it would feel to have his hands on her. Then her eyes wandered to his arms, his right was decorated with tattoos — she wanted to trace them with her fingertips. She had noticed the way his choice of clothing complimented his looks — she thought he'd look better with them off. Her gaze climbed up to his newly washed, and combed -which explained the volume- of fluffy hair — the scene of her running her fingers, and tugging them in between when he hit the spot came up vividly in her mind.
Her thoughts were interrupted by a cocktail glass that's been offered by him. "Maybe this'll help with your thoughts," he said while leaning towards her with his hands right next to her thighs to both capture her and balance himself. Y/n loudly takes a gulp from the drink, the liquor sliding down her throat. Jeongguk's eyes were fixed on her face. "You like it?" He asks with a small smirk, Y/n hums as an answer.
Jeongguk's right hand moved to her thigh, softly kneading the skin. "So tell me about yourself," he mumbled as his hand kept caressing her leg. It took y/n a second to gather her thoughts. "Hmm, let me think. I'm from Busan," Jeongguk's eyes widened. "Shit really? Me too." He chuckled. "What a small world huh?" Y/n hands slid from his arms to his shoulders clasping her hands behind his neck. Jeongguk nodded as he eyed her lips. "So what do you study?" He quirks his eyebrows. "Psychology, you?" Jeongguk's hands moved to her waist, firmly holding as his hands traced random patterns. "Architecture."
He pulled y/n against him, their crotches now touching each other. Sudden contact pulled a gasp from her. "Jesus, baby, if this small movement causes that I wonder what other sounds I can get from you," Jeongguk said quietly as he kissed the spot below her ear. "You gonna let me hear them?" He kept trailing kisses down her throat to her collarbone. She nodded eagerly, pushing herself closer to him. Jeongguk kissed the top of her breasts, one hand sneaking under her skirt. Y/n whimpered as his cold fingers danced on her now-burning skin. She could feel Jeongguk's smile as he kept licking and sucking on her neck. "Didn't think you'd get so horny talking about our majors," Jeongguk mumbled against her neck. "Shut up."
Jeongguk's fingers grazed her clothed pussy. "You gonna let me fuck you on this counter, baby?" Was she going to do that? Where anyone could enter at any given second. The thrill was exciting, but she didn't want anyone to see her bent over a kitchen counter. Jeongguk moved to, finally, kiss her lips. "Not here," she mumbled. "We don't have many options you know," Jeongguk sassed. "The bathroom."
