“Joon! Wass up bro?!” Junhyung said, a bit tipsy as plopped down on the sofa of Midori next

to Joon. 

Joon gave him a nod as he took a sip of his gin and tonic, wincing at the bitterness. “Hey have you seen

Kai anywhere?” Joon asked Junhyung who shrugged. “He might be working the DJ table.” He suggested

and Joon nodded, excusing himself for a moment. He got up and went around the large wall pillar

towards the dance floor and saw Kai adjusting the knobs on the synthesizer. Kai gave him a nod and

Joon walked over as they bumped fists. “What’s going on hyung? How’s Hyuna doing?” Kai asked him, as

they surveyed the crowd dancing. Joon shook his head, running a hand over his face. “Trouble? She’s

hot though.”  Kai said, not understanding the problem. Joon grunted at this. “Yeah but I’m going broke

lately. We’re not even official or anything but I keep finding myself paying for everything.” Joon said

with a long sigh. Kai gave a sympathetic nod. “Maybe it’s time to give her the boot” Kai suggested.

Joon shrugged back and said goodbye to Kai, slowly making his way through the dancing crowd. As he 

jostled with a few people swaying to the beat of Big Bang’s “Fantastic Baby.” He spotted a familiar face

in complete shock. He had to double-check because it seemed highly unlikely that he wasn’t

hallucinating.  But when he heard that familiar laugh he knew it was really..Jiyeon. She was wearing

a black tanktop and acid washed skinny jeans and silver kill heels, dancing with someone Joon

recognized from school. “Yah Park Jiyeon!” Joon bellowed unable to stop himself. Kai halted the music

to a scratchy stop and everyone stared at him. Once Jiyeon glanced his way he noticed she was wearing

heavy eye makeup as well. What was going on here? The guy from school put on the slickest grin on his

face and casually draped an arm over Jiyeon and something in Joon made him lurch forward to punch

him but a nearby bouncer intercepted, holding him back. “Joon! What the hell are you doing?!” Jiyeon

asked, shocked at his behavior. “Me?! What the hell are you doing here?! Dressed like that! And with

him?!” He yelled back at her. Jiyeon just glared at him, and Seungho, the guy from school extended his

hand out to her. She hesitantly took it as Joon paled, and they walked out of the club, as the bouncer

escorted Joon out to the alley way. As he stood up from the ground of the alley he dusted himself off.

“What the hell is wrong with me? It must be the alcohol. But since when did Jiyeon start clubbing? And

hanging out with that guy? Aish.” He said with frustration and left the alley way to hail a cab home.
