Jungkook's kisses were getting more intense and passionate than ever. He held Sana so closely and so tightly, like she'd disappear if he didn't.

- "Never have I ever been mistaken as the opposite gender."

- "I ing hate you." - Baekhyun glared at him before taking his shots, along with Jeongyeon. Some chuckled and giggled upon recalling the tales abo
