↠ 24

Perhaps you needed this night out with the girls. The club didn't pick up its usual pace until an hour later. The music had turned up and now some people took over the dance area. It's been a couple hours and you were having the time of your life.. You have already danced a couple of times and now here you were resting with Beatriz. Seulgi was out on the dance floor and you could only wonder how much energy she had left.

"So," Beatriz swirled her drink. "Why do you keep going back to the bar?" Ah, the conversation had dropped when Seulgi suggested to get different drinks. Looks like the subject was being revisited again.

Her question made you pause. Why are you even going back to the bar? Was it the thrill of winning against opponents? The new friends you made? Or just Yoongi in general? "I think it's all of them." You voiced out your answer, swirling the ice cubes in the glass. No one would make a better alcoholic drink than Seokjin. You were too spoiled.

"Um..." Beatriz raised an eyebrow in confusion. "I can't read minds, you know that?"

You sheepishly laughed. "Sorry. I guess the thrill," You could see her nod in agreement. "I made some friends and I guess the Shark is pretty cute."

She smiled brightly. "Oh? You like the Shark? What a fitting romance."

"Maybe it is." You slightly grinned. "How did you know when you fell in love?" You asked, to try and help decide some of the inner thoughts.

Beatriz smiled as she remembered. "I'm not sure. All I knew was that I liked hanging out with my fiancée and I would make every possible attempt to hang out with her. When I asked her out, she accepted." She paused. "I know it doesn't make sense but when that moment comes for you, you'll know what I'm talking about."

You soaked in the information. It made a little bit of sense to you. Is that why you always looked forward to the bar? Even to hang out of the bar when you offered him tips on how to play? Huh. Next time, you're definitely going to invite him to hang out with you! "Thanks."

"No problem. Although, next time I come into town, we need to play a round."

"Of course!" You happily said. Through all the rounds you've played against her, you always lost. You came close one time and she still managed to save herself.

She knocked back the rest of her drink. "Let's go dance one more time?" She suggested. You nodded and headed to the dance floor with her. Lucky for you, the alcohol burned through your system and you didn't care what you looked like. Yeah, you were not the best dancer but it passed.

Hands up in the air and jumping around, your night all came crashing down. Your life currently was its own weird fanfiction but hey, why was fate being cruel? And why was your ex here? Already, you felt pathetic as you saw him lean into his new girlfriend, whispering something to her. You didn't feel like staying here anymore. You really were pathetic...

The air felt suffocating and you excused yourself for a moment. Beatriz nodded and you quickly found the restroom. There were only a couple girls in there and you claimed a sink. You looked at yourself in the mirror. Everything was fine on the outside but inside, everything was hurting.

You need to get over him! You declared to yourself. It just hurt that you felt like you weren't anything to him. But for now, you wanted to get out of this place. Heading out of the restroom, you were on the lookout and Beatriz finally brought Seulgi back to the booth. You went over there with an apologetic smile on your face.

"Hey, I'm just going to head out."

"Already?" Seulgi asked.

You nodded. "Yeah. Make sure to let me know when you come back." You hugged Beatriz.

"Of course I will." She hugged you back. Good thing you paid your share for the drinks earlier so you wouldn't have to be here any longer.

"I can drive you home." Seulgi said, getting her keys ready.

You rolled your eyes. "Didn't you drink? Besides, I think I'm going to stop by the store real quick."

Beatriz took her car keys away. "I'll call an Uber for her later." Waving goodbye, you headed outside to be greeted by the cool night air. Going to the store was a lie. Where you going? Well, your feet took you to your destination.

The bar. A smile on your face, you entered and was quite surprised to see it a little packed than usual. Right away, you went straight to the bar and Seokjin didn't notice you yet. He was dealing with customers at the moment. From here, you couldn't see the pool table due to the rather large group of people blocking your view.

Must be some kind of special night or something. You patiently waited as Seokjin finished giving the last drink away. With a smile on your face, you called out to the bartender. "What are you doing here?"

Seokjin jumped in fright and almost knocked over a glass. Fate must have been kind to him as the glass cup slid over. He turned towards you. "H-Hello Y/N!"

He was probably not forgetting what happened last week.

"You're not mad, right?" He nervously asked.

"No." You admitted. "Just found it weird."

He let out a sigh of relief. "That's great!" Then he blinked and he realized something. "I thought you weren't coming tonight?"

"I wasn't." Trying to think if you told Seokjin, but you didn't at all. "Did Yoongi tell you I wasn't coming tonight?"

And Seokjin slipped up. "Y-Yeah." Oh, how he wished he could go on his fanboying moment. Earlier, Yoongi walked in and he immediately knew something was up. So when he asked, all he got was; "Y/N's not coming tonight." So, in order to not ruin it, he was going to change the subject!

"He's at the usual spot." Seokjin suddenly said. "I'll send someone over there with a drink."

"You sure? I can wait a few minutes." You said.

"Nonsense!" Seokjin deliberately turned his back on you as he grabbed a glass cup. You simply shrugged and headed over to the Shark. You were only assuming Jungkook was playing tonight. You finally broke the small crowd and you were in surprise. Literally, with your lips parted in surprise as you couldn't even believe what you were seeing. Yoongi was the one playing! And he was by himself!

Did you just walk into some alternate reality? Possibly.
