in which taehyung and jeongguk meet at a masquerade for the first time and kiss. well almost.

•••••••

"fine FINE I'LL GO TO THAT DAMN MASQUERADE." taehyung yelled in front of his parents who've been bugging him about some stupid masquerade ball.

"watch your language young man" his father tried to act stern but broke out into a smile. his family was a very cool one, they'd curse, accept taehyung's sexuality and all.

taehyung was now getting ready as he picked out his black suit and pants with a masquerade mash and settled it on his bed. he took a quick shower and changed into his clothes, twirling the car keys in his hands he went outside, his mask in the other hand.

jeongguk was not excited to go to the ball. the thought of having multiple females crowding him and asking him to dance wasn't very inviting.

but he was going nonetheless, he had to, otherwise his mom would've beat his ass so he quickly got ready in his suit, his black boots shining.

he took a glance in the mirror, smirking at how handsome he was. he exited the door, joining his family in the car not prepared for the long night ahead.

after a what seemed like an hour long drive, jeongguk and his family entered the mansion, ceilings graced by golden, expensive chandeliers. people divided into groups, no one dancing as chatters overpowered the slow music.

now jeongguk had a champagne glass in his hand, he lightly swirled it in his hand making the gold liquid turn like a tornado. his family was standing just beside him talking to some masked man about business while he permanently put on a fake smile to show his interest in the tedious talks.
and on top of that, the mask was irritating the shit out of him. it was a beautiful black mark, a few beads embedded on the front, secured with a ribbon on the back of his head, but it was uncomfortable.

just when he was about to pass out due to the boredom, his cocoa brown eyes roaming around the huge hall stopped on one brunette.

Kim Taehyung.

Least to say, jeongguk's eyes were stuck on the boy who was standing with his fingers wrapped around a club soda with lime. the brunette's fluffy hair bounced slightly as he threw his head back with at something someone sitting next to him said, his full smile on display and his eyes only as the mask covered the top half of his mesmerising face.

oh boy was jeongguk awestruck at the melodious laugh he heard.

even though jeongguk had seen the boy for the very first time, he just knew he wanted to get closer, so without thinking twice, jeongguk walked towards the boy, leaving the old conversation. he left his champagne glass on some tray, his full attention on the boy.


jeongguk now stood in front of the brunette making the latter's eyes land on him, now having his full attention.

jeongguk bowed down slightly extending his left palm a little above his waist, peering at the now moderately blushing brunette from under his lashes.

"may i have this dance" jeongguk's silky voice entered the brunette's ears, awaking him from his tranced state. taehyung blushed harder internally thanking the mask for hiding his tomato red cheeks.
