"Soooo...Please tell me your ass wasn't out there all this time waiting on Dez's ashy ass.."

Alesha pulls Alana from her small trip down memory lane, bumping her with her hip as she watched Yoongi prepare to win the game. Delaying her response, she rests her hands on the edge of the table. She continues to avoid Yoongi's pointed gaze, feeling his eyes on her as she tried to appear casual.

"And if I was?" Alana looks to her boldly, failing to keep her expression neutral. Alesha grunts in response then hiss through her teeth the moment Yoongi sinks the 8 ball. He leans up from the table, wagging his brows cockily as he winked at Alesha. Alana unintentionally looks up at him as he did and the moment he looks at her, she blushes hard.

She chooses to give him a tiny smirk that makes him look away bashfully. Alesha pays their interaction no mind as she abandons the pool stick, laying it on the table and returning her attention to Alana.

"If you were, you should be embarrassed. That man whore is probably out in those streets doing God knows what or WHO...meanwhile you're out there waiting for him in the middle of the street.." Alesha gets straight to it, giving Yoongi his cue to retreat to the bar where Taehyung and Jade were still hugged up. Alana watched him go with a conflicted expression.

"Please don't start Mo..." she sighs, turning back to Alesha.

"He doesn't even go here and he's standing you up. When are you gonna get it, girl?.. You have outgrown him and he knows that you haven't figured it out yet. So he's just stringing you along like a lil puppy. You're too good for that.."

Alana smiles at her suitemate, the expression not reaching her eyes.

"You know I just love our talks..always nice to see you too Mochi.. " she says sarcastically, patting Alesha on the shoulder.

Alesha looks at the hand laying against her shoulder and shrugs it off.

"Bitch we live together...don't change the subject," she responds with equal sarcasm.

"Ease up Mo!  At least let her get a drink in her before you start bitching.."Taehyung scolds her playfully from across the way and Alesha shoots him a look.

"Mind you and Jades business Tae. Thank you." she snarks, making him smirk devilishly before doing just that. Taehyung turns his head to nose at Jade's neck, making her giggle and move away as she took a sip from her cup.

Tipping it up until it's empty, she sighs before turning it upside down on the bar beside her.

"Well I for one am glad he isn't here." she huffs. Both Alana and Alesha watched Jade as she peels herself from her man's hold to step towards them.

By her gate, it was obvious she'd had more than a few drinks and Taehyung holding her against him was more for her than him. But she was graceful and a stunner nonetheless. She fills the gap between her two suitemates, draping her arms over their shoulders.

"Dare I ask why?" Alana asks.

"You're never yourself when he's around. You move when he moves. You're stiff. You aren't as social. Hell, you barely go out so I'm surprised you even showed up tonight, especially with expectations to show up with him. You're just...different. Iont like it." Jade responds bluntly and Alesha points to her friend in agreement, making Alana's lips press into a flat frown. Then she sighs.

Neither Jade nor Alesha was lying. It was true.

"Yeah well...he's not here so..." she trails off.

"Good. Let's get this night going then..." Jade slurs as she leaned up.

One of her arms fall from Alana's shoulder to smack her ass, making her yelp and look at her with a surprised smile that melts Alesha's stoic gaze. And then she smiles too, the three of them falling into a three-way embrace of laughter and fondness that breaks the tension caused by Alana's love life.

Yoongi had long since abandoned the three at the pool table, choosing to lean against the bar beside Taehyung. He picks up the cup that his friend was guarding and takes a sip. The two watch silently as the three women laughed and talked amongst themselves. Taehyung bobbed his head to the music, his eyelids already beginning to droop from the alcohol and lust as he scanned his girlfriend's body.

Beside him, Yoongi also stared.

But at Alana. He sighs heavily, spinning the few swigs of liquor around in his half-empty cup. Taehyung notices him brooding, glances over, and nudges him with his elbow.

"Hey....you good?" he asks. Yoongi furrows his brow. He reluctantly tears his gaze from Alana as she speaks animatedly to Jade and looks over at Taehyung.

"Yeah..why?"

Taehyung only laughs, shaking his head as he takes another sip from his beer. Only leaving yoongi oblivious to the joke he had no idea he just told.

The DJ scratches and the sound of a deep violin strumming against a high hat has everyone in attendance going tense. The lights dim in the house and the DJ gets on the mic.

"Ladies!! You already know what time it is!!!"  He yells and an eruption of women exclaiming excitedly in response almost drowns out the raspy southern twang now booming through the speakers.

"CASH MONEY TAKING OVER FOR THE 99 AND 2000!!"

"Hold that thought," Jade says. She skips over to Taehyung who is already standing up, knowing his role as his girlfriend pulls him by the hand to lead him in the thick of the crowd. Already about to follow, Alesha pauses to turn back to Alana.

"You coming?"

Alana shakes her head with an apologetic smile.

"Naw I'm gonna wait for Jimin. I need to catch up with yall before I do any dancing tonight.." she giggles and that was all Alesha had to hear before she too disappears into the chaos.

Alana watched as her friends found themselves in the center of the dance circle, both of them cutting up and bouncing their asses against their partners. She squints and cranes her neck to see the male already behind her friend, recognizing the curly blonde hair and exposed shoulder immediately.

So much for him getting her drink.

"You're not gonna dance?"

Alana flinched at the voice suddenly in her ear and she turns to find Yoongi now beside her, perching himself on the edge of the table. He twirls the pool stick between his fingers distractedly as he gazed down at her through darkened eyes, shaded beneath his bangs.

Wishing she had a drink right now more than ever, Alana swallows dryly before shaking her head.

"Naw...I don't think so. You?."

Yoongi shakes his head,

"I prefer the vibes over here..."

Alana nods slowly in understanding before resuming her eyes ahead to watch everyone dance.

"So...Wheres your boy?"  Yoongi asks suddenly, catching Alana completely off guard.

" You're asking about Dez?" she returns his question with lifted brows. Yoongi shrugs, lifting his hand to rub at the back of his neck.

"I guess I am...So what, aren't you two kinda still...ya know.." he trails off and Alana feels a bit defensive at him suddenly showing interest in her relationship status.

"Not really...well..yeah..but no. Why?"

Yoongi shrugs again.

"Just curious. Mochii usually only gets hostile when it comes to him so I figured.."

"Dez and I......It's complicated. I don't know..." Alana interrupts, her somber tone letting him know it wasn't the time for his curiosity to get the best of him. Ge could tell by her demeanor that this was the last thing she wanted to discuss right now.

"Understood."

And just like that, the conversation fell to silence as the two vibed out to the music beside each other, making small talk here and there. It wasn't long before their friends were returning to their corner, all glistening from sweat and laughing drunkenly.

After several songs and a few comical attempts at proper pool playing, Alana and Yoongi fell into the group to engage in their normal friendly banter. Jimin finally returned with a promised drink, opening the beer for her as he handed it over. She swallowed down the cool bitter substance, grimacing at his taste before taking another draft. Beer was always gross on the first few sips. But eventually, she stopped tasting it and allowed the alcohol to do its job at relaxing enough to enjoy the night.

As expected after several drinks, Alana felt an antagonizing twinge in her bladder. She rises from the bar stool tipsily.

"Whoa," Taehyung says, reaching out to grab Alana's wrist to keep her from falling over. The world spun the moment her feet touch the floor and it takes her a few seconds to regain her equilibrium before looking over. Taehyung and Jade were back cuddled up together, sharing a bar stool and being disgustingly cute.

Alana cracks a whimsical smile as she stifled a burp.

"Bathroom?" she mouths and Taehyungs furrowed brow smooths out as he understood her.

"Upstairs I think. Second door on the left. I can come with you..." he offers and Jade moves to climb from his lap but Alana puts a hand to her shoulder.

"Naw I got it, you look....comfortable," she says with a lopsided smile. She then turns, gazing towards the direction she figured she'd have to go. Everything seemed darker and more out of focus than before and even the music's volume seemed overwhelming to her. She halfway considered taking Tae or Jade up on their offer for an escort. The urgency in her bladder compels her to embark on this adventure alone though and with tunnel vision, she walks towards the stairs.

As she's about to pass Yoongi, who at the very end of the bar posted up, he grabs her by the wrist.

"Where you going?" he asks and Alana sighs thankfully. She leans into Yoongi to respond. He nods before pointing towards the stairs, insisting on going with her and not taking no for an answer.

They both skip up the stairs, cautious of the scattered cups and beer bottles lining some steps. The music isn't as loud upstairs and it's a welcomed change for her inebriated senses.

"Second door..from the..did he say left or right..." Alana thinks to herself, Yoongi not too far behind her. She stumbles a bit, lifting a hand to her mouth to mask her giggle at her clumsiness. Yoongi shakes his head but holds her by the arm.

He pauses and Alana turns around to look up at him.

"What?

"Oh shit...I don't know which room is which.." Yoongi pouts cutely, his dark eyes going into slits like they usually did.

"What do you mean you don't know? Where do you go pee?" Alana asks louder than intended and a look of guilt and embarrassment flashed over Yoongi's face.

"Outside?...who has time to climb stairs when the backyard is right there? There's these nice bushes..." he begins explaining and he falls silent when Alana is pushing him away gently with a snorted giggle that makes his eyes go wide.

"Ugh...that's gross Yoongi, I'm not doing that..." she laughs. Before he can respond, she turns around and staggers further into the dim hallway.

"It's gotta be one of these. You try that one" she says, pointing to a random door across the hall while she stepped towards the one across from it.  Yoongi watched fondly as Alana tiptoed forward, raising her hand to knock on the door.

"Excuse mee....is this a bathroom" she whispers loudly, making Yoongi cover his mouth to mask his laughter. Just as she's about to open the door, the sound of heavy breathing and muffled moaning makes her freeze.

"Oop...wrong door.." she slurs before turning away. But she freezes again at the voices now getting louder from within the room.

"Uhhh Dez....you taste so fucking good.."

Alana felt her heart drop into her churning stomach and she stares at the door. In her tipsy state, she considers that she may not have heard exactly what she thought she heard.

Dez is a common name, right? Or maybe that's even what the girl said. Dez...Tez...easily mistaken.

Yoongi is opening a door across the hall, a tiny smile of triumph on his lips at the discovery of a dark and vacant bathroom.

"Lana...found it," he says, turning to her. He frowns when he notices her still at the other door, her chest heaving and her hand shaking as it held the door handle.

"mmmm Dez...you like that?"

"Hell yea...fuck..."

"Shhhit...."

"Oh fuccckk don't fucking stop!"  the male voice shouts out, making Yoongi's eyes go wide. He definitely heard that and was now halfway understanding what had Alana frozen with her shaken gaze glued to the doorknob.

"......no...that voice...it couldn't be...." she thought as bile rose slowly in her throat.

"Um...Alana." Yoongi calls to her with caution, taking a step in her direction just as she reaches for the doorknob.

Without giving it another thought, the alcohol in her blood gives her the courage to grasp it and she turns it slowly. She pushes the door open and her heart sinks even lower.

That's when she saw him.

Seated on a bed with his pants at his ankles, his head leaned back and his hand tangled in the honey blonde tresses of a woman kneeling between his legs.

Dez is barely aware of the door opening at first, mumbling drunkenly and groaning low in his throat as the girl's head bobbed tirelessly beneath his guiding hand. It's only when he lifts his head to look down at her that he notices the open doorway, and shadow cast by the teary-eyed woman standing there.

His eyes buck as they lock with hers and his slacked jaw drops even more.

"Alana...." Dez mumbles, the girl between his legs lifting her head and looking up at him.

"Who?" she says before looking over her shoulder, following Dez's pointed stare.

Alana felt numb, all sounds falling to a dulled volume as the blood rushed to her ears and face. Tears blurred her vision but she couldn't bring herself to blink them away. Seeing her boyfriend's spit-shined dick still standing up in front of some randoms face wasn't an image she needed more in focus.

"Sorry!! Wrong door!" Yoongi walks up immediately, tugging a dazed Alana back to reach for the doorknob. He pauses when he feels Alana trembling beneath his touch. Yoongi lifts his head in time to see Dez moving to stand, fumbling with his pants and underwear all while nudging the girl out of the way.

"Lana..baby..."

Before he can finish his sentence, Alana is already turning to flee. She yanks her arm from Yoongi and dashes across the hall to the waiting bathroom, slamming the door behind her.
