“How’s it feel to be twenty-one,” your brother calls loudly over the music sliding a drink in your direction, swinging his arm around your shoulder, “you’re old enough to drink now,” you roll your eyes letting out a soft scoff.
“I’ve been old enough to drink in Korea,” you remind him taking a drink from the cup he had slid in your direction and he clicks his tongue in response.
“Is that why you wanted to move here so you could go clubbing, you’re such a bad kid,” Jaebum mutters clicking his tongue and you roll your eyes once more, his friends that are sitting across from the two of you sicker to themselves.
“When are you going to introduce them to me?” You say nodding your head in their direction, Jaebum lets out a hum pointing towards them.
“You’ve met Chase,” Jaebum says pointing towards Chase and you nod, “that’s Gray, Seonghwa and Loco, Hyukwoo,” Seonghwa is really gorgeous, like unbelievably good-looking, but Hyukwoo catches your attention more, just because he seems so awkward and he has really cute eyes that catch your attention.
“Nice to meet you Seonghwa, Hyukwoo, nice seeing you again Chase,” you say with a small laugh, Hyukwoo hums in response not actually saying anything, “I can guess Seonghwa came to drink,” you say with a click of your tongue which seems to startle the older, “Hyukwoo hasn’t even touched his drink though,” you turn towards your brother who shakes his head.
“You’ll get used to her, she doesn’t speak formal to anyone,” Jaebum explains, “I’m going to go sit at the bar,” Jaebum hits your shoulder standing up, and as expected Seonghwa follows him leaving you, Hyukwoo, and Chase together.
“Are you not going to drink?” You ask pointing towards Hyukwoo’s still full cup he nods softly looking down at the cup and spinning the liquid in it, “why?” You ask with a laugh.
“I’m making sure everyone leaves safe,” he says softly rolling his lips together, he seems too cute to be someone that you’re brother hangs out with, “it’s your birthday so I don’t mind,” Hyukwoo says softly, your brother comes back to the table without Seonghwa which leads Chase to go look for him, presumably to make sure he doesn’t do something illegal.
“You know,” your brother starts, “Hyukwoo has never offered to stay sober before,” Jaebum says accusingly, “Hyukwoo, I love you guys, but none of you are good enough for my sister,” Hyukwoo lets out a shy laugh and you hit your brother’s arm sending Hyukwoo and apologetic smile.
“It’s my first time meeting her,” Hyukwoo says with a pout, “is it wrong to make a good impression,” Hyukwoo whines out and you let out a small laugh listening to the back and forth bickering of the two that follows.
“I’m twenty-one, I can make my own decisions, Jay,” you say with a laugh patting his shoulder lightly, something about Hyukwoo makes you want to defend him, “thank you, Hyukwoo,” you say softly, “this is pretty boring though Jaebum, I don’t dance, talk to people, or drink much,” you say with a click of your tongue taking another small sip of your drink, alcohol always just reminds you of medicine.
“Of course, it’s boring to you, you don’t like people,” Jaebum mutters under his breath, “I guess just, stay with Hyukwoo,” Jaebum says with a heavy sigh before standing up again, “don’t hit on my sister, I’ll have to kill you,” Jaebum says in what you can only assume must sound threatening in his mind, but in reality it just didn’t work.
“How do you and Seonghwa put up with a man like him as your CEO?” You say exasperatedly, just being around him makes you tired, the two of you really are complete opposites, Hyukwoo lets out a laugh dropping his head towards the table.
“I guess we all get along really well,” Hyukwoo says with a small nod, “he talks really good about you, I was excited to meet you tonight,” Hyukwoo says in almost a whisper your heart flutters a bit from this and you let out a small laugh in an attempt to hide that.
“It’s nice to meet you too,” you coo biting the inside of your cheek trying to think of something to say to him to keep a conversation going but failing miserably, the two of you end up sitting in a relatively comfortable silence him occasionally pointing out stupid stuff people are doing around the club.
