The anticipation for the party had me positively buzzing with excitement. I'd prepared for this event, hoping against hope that she might change her mind and grace us with her presence. In the lead-up to the main event, I found myself at a Jimin's place. After all, no one in their right mind arrives at a party on time, unless, of course, they want to appear rather dull.
"Should we head over?" I inquired.
"Yeah," Jimin's concurred.
The party had commenced over an hour ago, so we decided to make our way. Walking seemed more practical, especially considering the possibility of indulging in some drinks or recreational substances. Fortunately, it wasn't a considerable distance to the venue.
"So, what's your game plan for tonight, particularly with Aesira?" Jimin inquired.
"Let's see how the night unfolds," I replied with a sly grin.
He chuckled and shook his head, seemingly aware of my uncertainty. Truth be told, I hadn't decided on my approach for the evening just yet. I figured I'd make that call when I got there. It didn't take long for us to reach our destination. Even from a distance, you could hear the booming music echoing down the street. Upon entering the house, it was already teeming with partygoers. People were engrossed in a variety of activities, from drinking and smoking to using a bong and making out. And that was only the beginning of the revelry. Everyone seemed to be having a great time
.
Our primary mission was to find Taehyung, and it didn't take long to spot him. A smirk played on my lips when we located him, for there she was – Aesira. She looked tantalizing in her barely-there high waist mini denim shorts that had rhinestone fringes that clung to her curves, and a draped collar backless metallic halter top that accentuated her cleavage. I couldn't help but groan, my lips subconsciously moistened.
Aesira must have sensed my gaze, for she looked up, and her expression shifted from a smile to a frown upon seeing me. To be honest, I wouldn't have expected anything less from her. I chuckled, finding the situation rather amusing.
"What took you assholes so long?" Taehyung teased.
"The right time," I quipped, "I was expecting things to be this wild by now."
"And things have only just begun," Taehyung retorted, "Aesira just arrived, so give her half an hour, and this party will truly kick into high gear."
"Hell yeah," Aesira chimed in, high-fiving Taehyung.
It was clear that she wasn't too keen on being nice to me, but then again, I wasn't the one who'd caused so much trouble. Life happens, and I've moved on.
"We were just heading to the kitchen for some shots, perfect timing," Taehyung informed us.
Jimin followed him, while Jennie and Aesira joined the group. I found myself walking alongside Aesira.
"You're looking incredibly sexy tonight. Those shorts really highlight your assets," I whispered in her ear.
Aesira turned to me, rolled her eyes, and quickened her pace to distance herself. I had merely intended to offer a compliment. I resolved to keep my mouth shut until she had a few drinks, as she usually softened up when intoxicated. Aesira could be quite pleasant when she was in that happy, fun-loving state, which typically made her the life of the party.
"Who wants one?" Taehyung asked, presenting an unopened bottle of soju.
The consensus was in favor of shots, so one turned into three, and we collectively called it quits after five. It was a solid start to the evening.
"It's time to dance!" Aesira exclaimed, brimming with enthusiasm. "Jen?"Jennie nodded, and Aesira grabbed her hand, leading the way to the living room for a dance session.
"Where's Irene?" I inquired of Taehyung.
"She went upstairs with Suho not long ago," he responded.
I found it intriguing, as those three were usually inseparable. Nodding, I made my way to the living room, eager to watch Aesira in her element. When I arrived, she was completely engrossed in dancing with Jennie, the two of them exuding infectious energy and laughter. They had attracted quite an audience, but neither of them seemed to mind.
My gaze remained fixed on Aesira as she moved with the music. Her hips swayed in perfect sync with the rhythm, her pert derrière swaying provocatively. I couldn't help but emit a low growl. Aesira must have sensed my attention, for her gaze locked onto mine. A mischievous smirk tugged at her lips, and she maintained eye contact, unflinching, as she danced.
I knew she was doing it to mess with me, and it would have been prudent to look away. However, I couldn't bring myself to do so. She chuckled, playfully flipped me off, and then turned her attention elsewhere.
"I need a damn drink," I declared.
I had to step away from watching her, as I feared I might become excited in a way that would be difficult to conceal, if you catch my drift. Shaking my head, I set out to locate a suitable beverage. I discovered an unopened bottle of vodka and wasted no time pouring myself a generous glass, downing it in one go. Then another.
"Are you going to keep all that to yourself or share?" a voice interrupted from behind.
I recognized it as Aesira.
"Why should I share anything with you after your little performance outside?" I retorted, fixing my gaze on her.
Aesira drew nearer, resting her head on my chest, and I swallowed hard.
"Why? Didn't you enjoy the show?" she inquired.
"I-I did, but that's not the point," I stammered.
"I thought as much," she said.
She was getting closer, her body inching nearer to mine. What was she up to? My query was soon answered. She burst into laughter, swiped the bottle from my grasp, and poured a drink into a glass before returning the bottle.
"Damn, why do you have to be such a bitch sometimes?" I muttered, irked.
"You're an asshole all the time, so I can be a bitch sometimes," she shot back.
I despised how effortlessly she got under my skin, but Aesira didn't give me an opportunity to respond as she walked away. I promptly poured myself another drink. I needed a distraction, and I needed it ASAP.
I surveyed the room, but nothing managed to capture my attention. I'd been with most of the girls at the party, and I found myself bored with the same old crowd. I groaned in frustration. There were only three girls left I hadn't been with: Jennie, Irene, and, of course, Aesira.
Aesira, for reasons that were abundantly clear. Jennie was off-limits due to her budding relationship with Taehyung, and Irene had made it clear that nothing could happen between us because of her close friendship with Aesira.
I needed to expand my horizons, find new options. Maybe it was time to shift my focus away from such base desires, but easier said than done for a teenage boy with raging hormones.
With renewed determination, I decided to rejoin the group. Aesira stood nonchalantly against the wall, a constellation of eager admirers orbiting around her. It was a comical sight, watching them vie for her attention, unaware that their endeavors were doomed from the start.
Aesira relished in teasing them, reveling in her penchant for playful mischief. She was not one to engage in superficial dalliances; her standards soared high above their reach. I couldn't help but stifle a laugh at their misguided audacity.
Aesira gracefully conversed and laughed with her entourage, her poise never wavering. It was clear to me that she engaged with them out of politeness, not because she held a genuine interest in any of them. I couldn't help but shake my head at their obliviousness, labeling them as "idiots" under my breath.
However, there was one intriguing observation: it appeared that Aesira conversed with everyone except me. I was determined to alter that circumstance soon, possibly after a couple of drinks had loosened her inhibitions.
Anticipation buzzed in the air as I looked forward to the impending merriment. Aesira was known for orchestrating a medley of exciting games, including classics like spin the bottle, truth or dare, and Never Have I Ever, just a glimpse of the evening's offerings. I was well aware that, as the night unfurled, Aesira's magnetic charisma would gradually coax everyone into shedding their inhibitions, culminating in a jubilant plunge into the pool.
My eagerness to witness this vivacious side of Aesira grow only more profound. And I knew I wouldn't be alone in savoring the experience; it was an escapade that promised to captivate and delight everyone in attendance.
