Two. (1/1)

Your gaze wandered from tip to toe, eyeing yourself in the mirror. The last time you had put that much effort into your own appearance seemed like an eternity ago so you were quite surprised at how you got yourself to look more like a decent human being. Your dress hugged every curve of your body and the cutout was perfect for the event. It took you years to find it in between the mess in your closet but it showed off your collarbones and by the end of the night you would probably be marked too. That thought made nervousness arise and you gulped but fought the feeling successfully. Tonight is just about having fun, you really deserved some recreation after having worked your a** off with endless sleepless nights next to your loyal coworker in the office. Sometimes Seokjin called all-nighters „pajamas parties“. Just as he crossed your mind the bell rang. They promised to pick you up from your place since it wasn’t as safe to go around the city on your own. Actually, it wasn’t really safe for anybody, not particularly women but just about anyone. Even whole flocks of stray dogs were found dead in empty streets and there was no explanation to that. Maybe it was just a first hint at a possible oncoming apocalypse?  Before you even could open the door, you heard Jimin’s excited voice bickering with Jungkook. „I’ll hug her first! I was the first to get to know her!“ You rolled your eyes, smiling contently and let the door swing open for your visitors. „Annyeong!“, you greeted each guy, hugging them fondly. They were like a family to you. Basically, they were closer to you than your actual relatives that had cut you off when you decided that you would quit your medicine studies and stay true to your own interests which had always revolved around literature. You didn’t miss your parents as much, after you got to know these dorks that were now crowding your kitchen, everyone holding onto the beer bottles they had brought. „(Y/N), are you ready?“, Hoseok asked, winking at you. „I can’t get over the fact, you’re not my soulmate, Hoseok-ah! So no, I’ll never be ready for anyone else“, you punched him teasingly at which he beamed happily. Everyone chimed in, laughing loudly. Jungkook raised his bottle and giggled: „Ok, so our goal tonight is, to at least get 2 of us laid. I think Taehyung needs it the most! He’d been complaining so much recently, all I want to do is stuff his mouth because he just won’t shut it.“ Taehyung protested, a pout forming on his face. „Jungkook-ah, you babo!“  By the time you Seokjin called 2 cabs for the group you all had glowing faces and your speech was slurring. Everyone was hazy enough to party through the night and it really felt like college again. You looked out of the window, wondering what would happen tonight and noted to yourself to take care of the younger trio that could become a burden to the other attendees of the party since they all were drunk to the core. You were their noona, after all. Seokjin woke you from your thoughts, squeezing your hand on the backseat. „You ok?“ „Yeah, I’m just excited.“„Sure?“, a furrow on his brow made him look a few years older.„Yeah, don’t worry! Tonight’s gonna be so much fun, I can feel it!“, you grinned at him and that seemed to effectively soothe him.  Reaching the rooftop your jaw dropped. And so did the boy’s since you’ve never seen such a huge crowd gathered at the same spot, dancing in a trance to the heavy beats that were filling the warm summer night’s air. How would you get to know anyone here if everyone was so busy rubbing their bodies together? You couldn’t picture yourself jumping between people and separating them just to dance with them so you turned back to your friends but they have long ago infiltrated the partying mass and left you standing there alone like some stranger they had never met before. Fine, you thought, heading to the bar that was dimly illuminated. A sex on the beach should do for a start, you figured. The barkeeper was leaning against the wall, looking either disinterested or just deep in his thoughts. You waved at him and his eyes darted towards you, deep dimples appearing on each side of his face. The forlorn expression on his face immediately vanished and he approached you, with a welcoming smile. You were curious what had clouded his mind just a few seconds ago. He tilted his head and you noted to yourself that that was an insanely provoking move. At the same time you wanted to slap yourself for being so pathetic. How could you already feel so hot and all he had to do for that was look at you in a certain way.„Hi. What can I get you?“„Sex on the beach, please…“, you tried to bite your own tongue to keep yourself from blurting out the following phrase, „Something I wanna have in the near future.“ You immediately blushed and the feeling of redness covering your ears made you aware of how stupid you actually were. However, to your surprise he started laughing with a deep voice that sent shivers through your body. „So do you want to have sex on the beach, or do you want to have a Sex on the Beach?“, he leaned over the counter, obviously enjoying how you flinched at the closeness.  „And I thought I was going way too far but mate, this was a whole new chapter!“, you shot at him sarcastically and both of you giggled over the silly conversation. „So what’s your name?“, he asked while handling the alcohol that would soon flow through your system. Mixing your cocktail he stole glances and for once in your life you felt attractive AND attracted to someone. „(Y/N).“, you bowed artistically at him, „and yours?“ „Namjoon imnida. Bangapseumnida.“, he bowed too in response. The drink stood on the counter and you happily reached for the glass. Suddenly you felt a firm grip on your wrist and could only manage to shoot an apologetic look in Namjoon’s direction since Seokjin was dragging you onto the dance floor and you tried to make out his words through the unhealthy volume of the music. „…Need you to calm Jungkook down!“ „What happened?“, you shouted trying to outcry the EDM beats you weren’t enjoying too much. „He stepped on some rich spoiled brat’s shoes while dancing. You know him…“ You gave him a puzzled look. „… oh and by the way. Jimin found his partner.“„WHAT?“ „Yes, He left the party with him, I think his name was Yoongi and their marks looked hella cool actually but now hurry. I hope Hoseok could hold Kookie back from doing something too mindless.“ When you finally made your way through the crowd that made you feel like you suffocated you were facing a Jungkook with messed up hair and bloody lips, reddened fists and a rather wild expression on his face. They had already thrown a few punches before you could get there, apparently. „Kookie! Stop! Please!“, you screamed at him, running towards him and trying to push him aside so that the towering dude with those newly polished shoes couldn’t reach his jawline. „Get out of my way, b****.“, he threatened with a clenched jaw. „He’s gonna pay for what he did.“ and at that he reached into his pocket. A shiny Swiss army knife emerged from his pants and he pointed it furiously at Kookie. There was no doubt that this dude was completely out of his mind and absolutely serious about injuring your friend which you wouldn’t let happen that easily. Where were Hoseok, Tae and Seokjin anyway? But there was no time to get them involved anymore so you quickly grabbed an empty bottle that stood lonely on the nearest table that was within your reach. Before you could even think through what you were about to do you smashed the green glass against the back of the aggressor's head with full force, knocking him unconscious. Blood slowly made his hair stick to the skull and it felt like the time had stopped ticking. What had you done, you thought raising your eyes to face the sky that was darkening now.  And when realization started kicking in after what felt like minutes but in fact was only a slit second after the incident, the sky was illuminated by a lightning that danced its way towards the ground. And that’s when you finally heard hysteric screams coming from the bar. Someone was struck by the electrical discharge and now all you felt was sickness. Your hands started shaking as you made your way towards the spot you had been sitting at just a few moments before, facing the guy that was your soulmate. Only that you both hadn’t come close enough so that the „magic“ could kick in. You had just met your soulmate and lost him at the same time. His frame was lying silently on the ground, no one courageous enough to approach his soulless body but your feet were carrying you to him uncontrollably and you fell to your knees, hitting them hard against the ground.  „Oh God, oh god. Oh god.“, was all you could mutter in the hysteric state you were currently in. Your hands darted towards his hair that was now falling over his eyebrows and as you touched him, you felt your chest burn in an agonic pain. So he really was your destined one, after all, you thought but then another realization hit you at the same time. If you got your mark and he got his… he should be still „…ALIVE! HE’S ALIVE! SOMEONE, ANYONE! A DOCTOR!“
