Chapter 8
~Y/N POV~
Tonight was the night of the company party. I've been excited yet nervous bout it because I've never been to one of these things before.
Lucky for me though Yoongi came with me so I wouldn't arrive alone and also to my surprise Jimin also came with us since Hoseok couldn't make it tonight for reasons I'm not too sure about but I didn't press about it. Jimin didn't seem too upset about it anyway and was just looking forward to the drinks as was Yoongi. We shared a taxi since the two boys planned on getting hammered as Yoongi would say in his own words.
The drive wasn't that long maybe about twenty minutes or so perhaps but I was more surprised by the look of the place we had arrived to. It's massive and something I've only seen in the movies. The invitation said it was at namjoons house and this place was flipping massive but surely he couldn't live here alone right?
Getting out the taxi Jimin took my hand to help me out but I stared at the house in awe while mumbling a thank you to Jimin.
"This place is huge. Does Namjoon live here by himself?"
I asked Jimin but he only laughs at my reaction. Yoongi comes to my side from the other side and take my hand in his.
"No we live here with him too. We just needed to pick you up." Yoongi
I didn't know that. I thought they lived separately.
"But I thought Jimin came because he needed a lift too and so did you because you planned on drinking?"
That's what they told me.
"Oh Y/n we do plan on drinking and we've already had some drinks which is why we had to take a taxi and I just wanted to come with to see your sexy dress." Jimin
He winks at me with a giggle and walks off towards the front of house along with all the other guests arriving to walk inside the house.
"Yoongi why didn't you tell me you lived with Namjoon?"
He shrugs like it was nothing adjusting his tie and begins to tug me forward towards the house.
"I just never mentioned it. I have my own place in the city to if I need space but here is home." Yoongi
He gazes at the house building before we entered the house with other people walking in with their partners. The entryway was big and classy with a large staircase in the middle of the room right in front of the door to the house. A huge chandelier above the stairs lighting up the room and paintings decorating the walls on the way up the stairs.
However Yoongi guided me to the left side of the room where everyone else was going and we entered another room which was also huge like a massive hall with table, chairs and a buffet in the far corner with entertainment that played music on a well built stage. It all looked very classy and I couldn't help but feel out of place here. This is like rich people parties, this is what I was afraid of.
It makes me more nervous even with knowing these are people I work with but the whole atmosphere is something that makes me uncomfortable. I'm just glad I have Yoongi by my side to keep my company but the moment he almost pulls his hand away from mine when he reached over to a waiter to grab some drinks I tensed and forced his hand to stay in mine. This made Yoongi chuckle and pass me a glass and I didn't hesitate to take a sip to try and calm my nerves.
"You'll be fine Y/n. It's all people you work with and their partners. It's all good." Yoongi
He tried to reassure me but I'm totally out of my comfort zone. I cant help but look around the place feeling like people are staring at me. I guess I forgot about my anxiety about large crowds of people especially around rich people. My family aren't rich at all since I grew up poor in a very small house while my parents tried everything to keep up afloat and get what myself and my brother needed growing up. I even now send money to them, which is something no one knows about, not even Yoongi. I keep that to myself since I don't feel the need to be going about tell people.
"Wow Y/n I love the dress!" Taehyung
He walks over with Jungkook glued to his side. Both men wearing the same matching black suits with matching black bow ties. They looked so handsome but yet perfect standing next to one another.
"Yeah Y/n damn." Jungkook
He checks me up and down while I take another sip of my wine guzzling it down because I still don't feel any better about being here despite my friends being here.
"Woah Y/n you're drinking that a bit fast aren't you?" Taehyung
I nod but put the glass on the table behind me ignoring his concern towards me.
"She just doesn't like big crowds." Yoongi
"Oh really? Well if it gets too much just let one of us know and we could take you home. I'm sure Namjoon would understand." Jungkook
I nod again trying to keep myself all together. I didn't think I would react this bad being in such a huge place, I guess it's because I didn't know what to expect from coming here. I was excited because its my first company party but I didn't think this house would be massive and obviously very expansive maing me feel little about the way I grew up but I still had very happy memories despite the money side of things.
"Well hello everyone!" Jin
He comes in joining the conversation with his beautiful wife by his side, Yuri. I've only met her a hand full of times since she's busy with two kids at home but the times we've spoken when she comes in to see Jin has been very pleasant. I like her, she's polite and very friendly and open and very honest too and I like that.
"Hi."
I wave at the two of them but Yuri frowns when she sees my nervous state.
"Ah I see you two have a kids free night tonight?" Yoongi
"Duh, do you see my children around? No I didn't think so." Jin
He flicks his hair from his forehead and Yuri steps forward towards me gently grabbing my arm.
"Y/n would you come walk with me please?" Yuri
She asks politely and I nod after glancing at Yoongi and then allowing Yuri to pull me away from the men that were watching us walk away. I swear I heard Taehyung ask Yoongi if I was seriously okay. Yuri and I walked through thr crowd of people and towards a empty table in the corner the room. I felt like I could breath a little more since there was only one other man sitting at the table scrolling on his phone.
"You don't like big crowds?" Yuri
I shook my head tucking my hair shyly behind my ear.
"No but it's not only that."
"What is it?" Yuri
She gently touches my shoulder with her soft tone. She must be using her mother tone on me or something. It was comforting.
"This place is very intimidating. I'm not use to all this.....stuff."
I waved to the whole room filled with people. She smiled at me but before she could say anything a voice appears from behind me.
"Y/n, are you okay?"
I turn around to the sound of his voice and I don't know what it was but I immediately felt at ease at just the pure sight of him. He smiles at me while I admire his appearance all smartly dressed in his suit with a bow tie and his hair slicked back off his forehead. He looks gorgeous I felt lost for words.
"Y/n I'll talk to you later okay?" Yuri
She speaks to me as she was already passing by me. I just nod but she laughs at my sudden loss for words and walks away leaving me with Namjoon.
"Y/n?" Namjoon
He steps closer to me with a worried tone and I snap out it shaking my head coming back to my senses.
"Yes sorry. I'm okay."
He searches my face for a moment before lowering his gaze down at my dress and then back up to my face.
"you look beautiful tonight, well I mean not that you don't always look beautiful. Wait! I erm, hold on, Oh shit." Namjoon
I laughed at his sudden muttering as he shyly looks down at his feet with his cheeks turning red. He was cute acting like this as I've never seen him like this before. Plus he called me beautiful and I couldn't be more happier about that.
"Y/n would you like to dance with me?" Namjoon
His question surprised me but I nodded eagerly and took his hand that he held out for me and guided me to the dance floor in amongst the crowd of people. coming to the middle of the dance floor he pressed my self against his chest causing me to blush this time when he wraps one arms wound my waist as he does so and we began to slow dance in the crowd of people to the slow music.
I enjoyed dancing with him, it was nice and calming and despite the amount of people around us I felt safe and my anxiety almost felt non existent. Every now and then I would catch him staring at me which would make me blush even more to be honest between the two of us it was almost like i was just the two of us in the room that was until a woman with long light brown coloured hair and smooth clear skin came up to us and patted my shoulder a bit harder than what I would of liked. She forced a smile at me like she was attempting to try and not make the fact she was gritting her teeth noticeable but when she looked at Namjoon that's when she smirked and spoke, interrupting our dancing.
"Namjoon could I have this dance?" Woman
