My step brother is a stripper

     (Jungkook's POV)

     The guard handed me back my ID before stepping to the side. I walked into the club, my eyes immediately going to the poles. As I got closer I knew V wasn't one of the dancers tonight. Or maybe he's already gone, or is going later. Maybe I should've looked it up?

     Maybe I could ask someone. I made my way over to the bar, getting the attention of the bartender. The man came over to me.

      "Um excuse me, sorry to bother you but I was wondering if V is performing tonight?" I looked at my fingers the question making me embarrassed for some reason.

     "He's doing private shows tonight." The man pointed to the hallway I hadn't noticed before. "If you go down there, there are forms. He's probably booked but you can check if you want." The man gave a small smile.

     I thanked him and went in the direction he had pointed. The hallway had a ton of doors on each side, each having a number on them. There was a guard at a few of the doors, I guess for protection.

     My eyes wandered over to the desk near the beginning of the hall. A younger guy sitting behind it. I went over to see a stack of papers on the table.

     "Trying to book a private show?" The guy didn't look up from his phone. His name tag said Jaebum.

     "Um, well...are there anymore for V?"

     He glanced up at me, smirking slightly. He pulled out a clipboard, his eyes scanning over it.

     "V's quite popular, so there aren't any shows open for him for a while."

     My heart sank. Why was I so disappointed?

     "You a fan of V's?" He brought my attention back to him. How do I answer that? I hesitated before answering.

     "T-to be honest I've only been here once. But I couldn't stop thinking about him so I came, in hopes of seeing him again." Something about the stranger made me comfortable with telling him.

     He looked at me for a moment then nodded.

      "Well..."

     "Jungkook."

     "Jungkook, you seem like a good kid. Not like a lot of people I see around here. I'll tell you what." He sat up in his chair. "The next guy on V's list is a douchebag, he comes here a lot and is known for mistreating the performers." Jaebum spoke slowly as if not knowing whether he should continue or not.

     "I'm going to cancel his private show, I'll say V got sick or something, you can have the slot."

     "What? Really? Thank you-" I started, a smile on my face before he cut me off.

     "On one condition."

     "What is it?"

"Jungkook?" I walked up to the counter as the barista called my name. "Hot cocoa?" I nodded giving her the exact amount before taking the two drinks and bag from her, which contained two warm croissants.

My phone chimed just as I got out of line. I put he drink down to look at the text.

Unknown: he's going to be ready in 5 minuets.

Me: okay, I just got the hot cocoa

Unknown: you actually got it?

Me: you told me to
