Jongin

It was finally the day of the Christmas party. From what we had heard from Baekhyun and Chanyeol, the couple that was showing up had to wear matching outfits. I found it a bit embarrassing but I went on with is, since I really wanted to wear a couple outfit with Kyungsoo. I was planning on having on my nicest jeans, and a plaid red shirt with a Christmas red sweater tied around my shoulder. Kyungsoo was also wearing jeans, a white fuzzy sweater and a bow that matched my shirt. The couple that was holding the party, Luhan I think and his boyfriend, lived close to Kyungsoo, so we agreed to meet at his house and go together to the party. We'd meet up with Baekhyun and Chanyeol at the party when it starts, and they said we had to take a picture. A couple picture. It was for Luhan and his boyfriend so they'd know who was there, who was the couple, and they'd give a price to the couple that looked best together.

I texted him to see if he was ready or not: 'hey, you ready yet? Can I come over now?' It didn't take long before he replied.

'Just need to take the bow on then I'm ready. Just come now if you want to'. I replied shorty by just saying I was on my way, and grabbed my keys before locking after myself and went over to Kyungsoo's house. I rang the bell when I finally reached his house, and he come out.

"Hey", he said shortly and I frowned at him.

"Hey?" I repeated and he looked up at me. It was a bit awkward silence for a moment.

"What do you want me to say? Wassup?" I chuckled at his joke and playfully hit him on the arm.

"Let's go". He nodded and we followed the description Baekhyun had given us on paper where the house was. We hoped to have reached the right house and rang the bell. Judging by the noisy music and people chattering it must be right. We got greeted by a grinning boy that must be Luhan. He stared with a bright happy smile and waited. I forgot that we hadn't introduced ourselves.

"Uhm, hi. Baekhyun and Chanyeol invited us. My name is Jongin and this is Kyungsoo", I said and both of us bowed while Luhan seemed even happier.

"Oh you're that cute couple they mentioned! Please let me take a picture of you", he said happily while holding tightly on the camera that was hanging around his neck. He pointed it at us, and I suddenly felt a lot more pressure than I had expected. I held my arm awkwardly around Kyungsoo's shoulder and forced a smile that probably looked like I had just pooped my pants. "Come on! Be original, and act natural. You're together, right? Then do something fun!" I removed my hand and Kyungsoo and I switched glances before smiling and nodding. We raised on hand out on the other side of our body (meaning my right hand because I was standing on his right side) and we formed it together, making a big heart while we leaned our head together and smiled brightly and looked into the camera. "Yes! Great! Lovely picture!" He yelled, pleased with out pose and smirked at the picture of us he had just taken. "They were right, you're absolutely adorable together. Wanna see?" I hesitated a bit I wanted to see it and he turned it around to let us see. I felt even more shy as I thought of how cute we looked together, and how I wanted that to be real. I wonder how he'd react if he knew we weren't really together. "Oh and I'm Luhan by the way. Sorry, forgot to introduce myself", he said as he let us inside. Suddenly came a taller boy who surprised Luhan with a back hug and kissed him on the top of his head. "Sehunnie!" Luhan screeched happily and wrapped his arms around him. "That's Jongin and Kyungsoo, the couple Baekkie and Channie mentioned". Sehunnie glanced at us and reached out his hand.

"Sup, I'm Sehun". We shook his head and waited for something to happen afterwards. We didn't even know if Chanyeol and Baekhyun had come yet.

"Uhm, have Chanyeol and Baekhyun arrived yet?" I asked politely and I jumped a bit by the sudden gentle punch I got on the shoulder from Luhan.

"No need for politeness here. Just be natural! And yes, they're in the living room with the others. You're one of the last to arrive", he yelled over the loud music and we nodded and headed over there. I was a bit hard to search for them but we finally did and they waved and yelled like crazy when they also spotted us.

"Eeeeeyyy Kyungsoo! Jongin!" Baekhyun yelled and waved like he was trying to get attention from a super star and we chuckled at his silliness. We approached closer to them, and suddenly the music stopped. I was about to speak but suddenly Luhan came up from behind me and threw his arm around my shoulder. When I glanced at Kyungsoo, he was staring at Luhan, almost looking like he was glaring. Why was he glaring at him? He had a boyfriend, and obviously just wanted things to become comfortable.

"Alright, everyone's here, right? Channie, go and grab a bottle, and everyone else sits around in a circle. Let's play TRUTH AND DARE!" He yelled the last part, which almost made me deaf. "Those who refuse to do what they're told to do in the game or doesn't answer, have to take a sip of their cup. Before you sit down, get a cup from Sehunnie". Both Kyungsoo and I stared at him like he was crazy, and I already knew this was going to be a bad idea. But unfortunately we couldn't decide what do to as is wasn't us throwing the party and just did what told to do. We sat down beside each other and I sat beside Baekhyun while Chanyeol was on his other side. Kyungsoo seemed very tense about sitting beside a stranger, and came really up close to me. His eyes were wide open, which made me giggle at the sight of him looking a bit scared. I could understand him though, since he wasn't used to being with many people all at ones. I threw my arm around him to comfort him and he seemed to relax a bit. "Awe so cute!" I heard Luhan yelled before he sat down and took once again a picture of us. "Sorry", he mumbled after Sehun gave him a small glare for acting 'rude'. I didn't feel offended or sad being taken a picture of. Actually, it made me a bit happy. I wanted us to look good together. "Who wants the honor of starting?" Baekhyun didn't hesitate a second for rising up his hand and yelping like a dog who wanted a treat. Luhan just grinned and handed him the bottle. Baekhyun spun it like he was the happiest being on the planet and it spun around. Everyone stared at it with tense eyes, some hoping it landed on them, while others mentally prayed it wouldn't even be close to them. I was one of those people. I didn't want it to land on me at all, but my typical luck was right with me.

"Jongin~" Sang Baekhyun, waiting for a respond.

"Uhm, truth", I said a bit shyly and felt some glares on me. Even from the happy Luhan seemed very disappointed.

"Oh come on, that's no fuuun", he whined but Sehun nudged him softly to make him stop.

"Have you had your first kiss yet?" Baekhyun teased and was probably expecting a no, which probably would give Luhan a heart attack. I was almost 100% completely sure he wasn't even a virgin.

"Yes". I saw in the corner of my eye that Kyungsoo was staring shocked at me, and Chanyeol and Baekhyun stared at me like I had gone mad.

"Y-You have?" Baekhyun asked shocked and Chanyeol was staring intensely. He probably felt offended that I hadn't told him about it. From Baekhyun's grin he probably knew whom it was with.

"Phew I almost thought you'd say no, since you look so innocent", Luhan interfered again with a small chuckle and I gave Chanyeol the look that I'd tell him later, even though I was hoping I didn't have to.

"What are you doing?" I heard Kyungsoo murmured in my ear and I promise I felt shivers run down my spine by that.

"I didn't have a choice", I whispered back and spun the bottle.

"You could've lied".

"That's the point of the game, to not lie". He was about to say something else but Luhan's cheer interrupted. He acted he had just won the lottery and grinned towards me.

"Dare! DARE", he yelled and everyone chuckled and giggled at his excitement. I tried to come up with something good to live up to his expectations, and glanced around to get inspired. I glanced at Baekhyun for S.O.S and he whispered something to me that made my whole face turn red.

"I d-dare you to lock yourself and Sehun in the bathroom f-for five m-minutes", I stuttered shyly and his face lightened up. He didn't even hesitate before grabbing Sehun's hand and dragged him with him into the bathroom and locked it. Some people were curious enough to squeeze themselves on the door to listen while others continued to sit in the circle, chatting to those beside them to kill time.

"They'll probably be in there for 5 hours", someone commented and made others chuckle, and I tried to ignore the stares from Baekhyun and Chanyeol.

"So~" Baekhyun sang and smirked towards us. "Your first kiss, ey?" I didn't believe that Baekhyun hadn't had something to drink. Who knows have much he had been drinking before we arrived. I knew Chanyeol wouldn't drink so much because he wanted to protect Baekhyun from whatever he'd get himself into.

"I-It was an accident", Kyungsoo stepped in and tried to convince them but he was still smirking and Chanyeol looked like he wanted to kill me with his stare.

"Come on Chanyeol. I didn't tell you because I knew you'd think differently. It was an accident, no more to it". I could've said that confidently and truthfully when that happened, but I felt like the biggest liar here I sat. It wasn't true at all. The only truth thing was that it was an accident.

Luckily Luhan and Sehun came out after nearly ten freakin' minutes and sat down in the circle again.

"Had fun?" Someone joked and Luhan only replied with a smirk. He spun the bottle, and the luck continued on our side. It landed on my little baby owl. I swear I could see his body shiver.

"T-" He cut himself off when he met Luhan's gaze that were staring like he was trying to scare off a ghost, and it made him shiver again. "Dare". It was barely hearable, but Luhan did and he threw up his hands in the air.

"Yes! I dare you to spend 10 minutes in the little closet with your boyfriend!" He yelled while pointing towards a closet that didn't look it'd even fit one of us in it.

"Are you crazy?" I said without meaning to but Luhan just laughed.

"You'll thank me". He laughed like he just made an evil plan and had to literally drag Kyungsoo's and my body towards the closet and pushed us inside. He didn't trust us enough to stay and blocked it so it'd be no way for us to exit it before the time was up. I glanced at the time on my phone and noted mentally when we could get out. Why did it have to be 10 minutes? I felt like dying already. The closet was really narrow, and we had to squeeze our bodies together to be able to fit inside. I had to admit though, this was heaven for me. If only it wouldn't be weird if I could kiss him, I couldn't help but to stare at him. He avoided my gaze and only stared over my shoulder, but eventually glanced up at me, making eye contact. It was very dark in here and the only light that was entering was through the keyhole by the door handle, but I could see his big eyes that were round and shocked.

"It's pretty tight in here, isn't it", I said awkwardly, trying to break the awkward silence.

"Don't talk". It was obvious he was mad at me. Probably because of what I had admitted earlier.

"Listen, Kyungsoo, I'm sorry I said we had kissed but it's not something to be ashamed over", I said and he stared up at me. "The people here think we're together, so what's the big idea?"

"The big idea is that you gave Baekhyun and Chanyeol hope!" He suddenly yelled, not too loud so anyone else but us could hear. I frowned at him and stared at him confused.

"What do you mean-?"

"They'll think you'll like me back, but it was only accidental! Of course they wouldn't believe that and only continue with their wild imagination. How could you be so careless?!" I stared at him shocked, not believing my own ears.

"D-Did you say back?" I asked astonished and I could even tell in this dark room that his face went red. My heart was all the way in my throat and it was only matter of time till he'd hear it, since his face was almost pressed against my chest. I knew it was soon times up in the closet and I knew I'd regret it if I didn't try what I've wanted to do all this time. He still tried to avoid my gaze, mostly because of embarrassment but I put my hand under his chin, lifted his head up and I bent down and kissed him. Passionately. I didn't want to break it no matter what. I pressed his body against mine and held my arms tight around his body like I was afraid someone would drag him away from me, and I felt the butterflies I had kept hidden suddenly exploded inside my stomach, and it was going crazy like it was a zoo in there. We kissed for long and I wanted it to last longer but then we'd die from lost of oxygen. We broke the kiss we still embraced each other, and our eyes met. I smiled, and I could barely see his too but I knew it was there. I couldn't take it anymore and smoothly placed my lips on his once again, and he did the same thing as the first one; stood completely still but kissing back.

"Alright times up- whoa", Luhan interrupted himself when he opened it and found us kissing. He looked amazed at first and behind him were Baekhyun and Chanyeol who was staring at us like they were praying for it to happen. "Only a kiss?!" Kyungsoo and I stared at him dumbfounded and frowned at him, but quickly got out of the closet out of embarrassment and had an awkward distance between us.

We had given up truth and dare ages ago, and everyone seemed to be having a fun time with music and dancing, and couples making out. I had witnessed a couple that locked themselves in the bathroom and had been in there for over 1 hour. Literally.

"Heeeey Jongin!" Yelled a happy drunk Baekhyun and threw his arm around my shoulder. "Where's your boyfriend?"

"Where's yours?" I asked as I searched for Chanyeol to take care of his drunken boyfriend.

"He's talking to Luhan! Don't understand how he can talk to that guy. He only talks about bullshit when he's drunk!" He yelled in my ear to cover up the music but he yelled louder than necessary. "He's so drunk". He chuckled a bit and drank the last part in his cup.

"How many cups have you been drinking?" I asked, a bit worried it'd be too much.

"This was my first one!" He yelled back, which meant he had many.

"Cut it down hyung. Find Chanyeol and let him take care of you, okay?" I said while scanning through the room to look for Kyungsoo. Baekhyun smirked and giggled and headed off to where Chanyeol and Luhan were talking. "Hey before you go", I started and he turned around and glanced at me questioningly. "Have you seen Kyungsoo?" He didn't seem to even recognize the name and I rolled my eyes. "My...boyfriend?" I tried and couldn't help but to giggle. I felt the butterflies that were hidden came out again and it took a while for me to calm down.

"Ah!" He seemed to have remembered his best friends face. "No". He then walked but quickly turned around towards me again. "Oh but I did see him drinking with that guy named Jared. I think he broke up with his boyfriend and he left, but Jared stayed. He was talking to your boyfriend". Horror came rushing and spinning around my head like someone had just punched me and I ran around the room, trying to find him.

"Kyungsoo!" Please god, let me find him.
