That was pretty intense if you ask all the new contestants. Now they have to survive more than a month here, with all these people. It is good to get acquainted first if they all want to get along.

So to make sure of that, they all gathered around in this firepit, which had a whole seating area that was enough for all of them to fit in to.

Now there were four girls, Jia, Bora, Yeri and Nabi and five boys, Jaewon, Sangwoo, Jimin, Taehyung  and the star himself Jeongguk. All coupled up except Jeongguk. Who has already been eyeing the girls.

"This feels so crazy, I can't believe I'm here" Jeongguk says as he is kind of the new one even though others haven't been there for a while either.

"Same, Feels like a dream If you ask me. This place is massive, I can live here forever" Sangwoo added, looking around the villa. Admiring it and feeling envious because of it.

"Yeah, that's cool and all, but how is everyone feeling about their couple?" Jia asked them and surprisingly her voice was deeper than Taehyung imagined it to be.

That was indeed a good question because the second she asked,  nervous chuckles and hesitant responses left everyone's lips, exchanging strange looks with each other. Making Taehyung giggle.

"I love mine, I think me and Taehyung will go well. He's exactly my type" Bora stated, leaning against his shoulder, putting her head on it. Taehyung played into it as he doesn't wanna look mean in front of the cameras as every single moment from now on would be recorded.

"Same, The second I saw you standing there I was shocked. I didn't know idols were allowed on this show"  Jaewon said, His eyes fixated on Yeri.

"Why? idols don't deserve love? I am a soloist going into my 8th year since my debut. I think it's time I find someone" Yeri responded a bit coldly to Jaewon. It was clear she wasn't feeling it.

"I think it's amazing you are here. I am a huge fan of your songs, I swear I almost squealed when I saw you" Bora added her little word in.

"Same, I don't listen to kpop a lot but Yeri, your songs are just amazing" Jeongguk finally spoke and everyone's eyes were on him,including Taehyung.

It wasn't his fault Jeongguk's was so mesmerizing to look at you know. His sharp features complemented those beautiful doe eyes that shined so brightly. He truly was an eye candy.

"We are talking about couples,not yeri. No offense babe but I have to say it's too early to talk about our couples because we barely know anything about each other. Though, Jeongguk, who do you have your eyes on?" Nabi made everyone's attention come back to her.

"Hm,Well you said so yourself it's too early to say anything. You girls are all beautiful so if I can get to know you each then I think my decision would be easier" Jeongguk flipped the table towards her,not giving her much to work with.

"Fair enough,then do you have a type?" Taehyung asked this time and finally Jeongguk's eyes were on the boy. They made eye contact and Taehyung felt flustered but a bit threatened by his aura. He is indeed more of competition to him than anyone else.

"I don't know if I do. I do prefer my partner who can be both sexy and cute and ofcourse good sense of humor so it will be easier to have conversation and a little banter with. I am a bit of a workaholic too so someone who can understand that would be nice too. I know my standards are pretty high but When it comes to choosing a serious partner you need to have your standards high" Jeongguk explained his reasoning.

"Cheers to that" Taehyung raised his glass of champagne and so did everyone. Cheering together,clinking their glasses.

"Wait, what's your job?" Jimin asked Jeongguk.

"I am a video game developer. I work under my father and I'm currently a CFO there and main designer for the concept of the games we create and I really love what I do so I think that's why I sometimes get carried away with it" even his job is cool. This man is amazing.

"That's c-" before Jimin could even respond,the love buzzer started to make noise. "Looks like we have our first love buzzer"

Love buzzer is just a small speaker that is installed in different parts of the Villa. Like right now,it's on the table next to the fire pit. There is one on the kitchen island, one is on the side table of the main 2 bedrooms. One near the daybeds and another on the terrace. It buzzes every time the contestants have to be gathered around for a new challenge or recoupling or any type of other alert they need to know. A robotic voice comes out of the buzzer to explain it to them.

"Dear Contestants,It is time for a new challenge. Get ready to have your little secrets found out by your fellow contestants. If you win today's challenge you will be rewarded with a cocktail party. Please go to your destination" The robotic voice alerting them. They all cheered and got up from their seats.

They were all told beforehand on where these challenges will be held and that is just the back side of Villa that leads down from the stairs to this set that is customised according to the challenge theme.

They all ran down to the set and the set was customised to look like a birthday party. With huge balloons on the sides of the sets and this tower of the beautifully wrapped gifts. One of the staff gave the script card to Jeongguk as he would be today's host.

All the couples stood aside ready to get their instructions and win this because a cocktail party does sound nice.

"Our challenge is 'Birthday secret'. One person from each couple would go to the tower of gifts and have to grab one without making the whole tower fall down. If the tower falls,you all will automatically lose. That's not just it,inside the gifts there would be a secret written and you have to guess which one of your fellow contestants' secret it is and kiss the person. If more than half of the couples get it right you would win. Are the rules clear?" Jeongguk asked them and they all shouted yes and cheered enthusiastically.

Jeongguk smiled and pulled up the card again to read. "My secret will also be there so if you think it's me feel free to kiss the host. Yeri and Jaewon you guys are first"

He saw the couple discussing who should go because being first is tricky because the only gift you can choose without making the whole tower fall is the one on the top and none of them are tall enough to get it.

"Wait, can I help her reach the gift?" Jaewon asked Jeongguk,who looked back to his card and nodded. "Yeah it doesn't say you can't help your partner but only one of you has to grab and kiss. So yeah"

He nodded and got down on his knees. He indicated Yeri to get on his shoulders. "Wait,are you sure? Let me tell you my face can't be damaged, my whole job depends on it" She said to him and he chuckled. "It's all cool,I am man I can pick you up" the inner alpha male in him was coming out.

She sighed and sat on his shoulders. Grabbing his head so she won't fall off. Jaewon tried to stand up and for a second he was actually struggling and it was a bit embarrassing because Yeri is really slim and small. So picking her up shouldn't be difficult. But each to their own.

After struggling for a bit,he was finally able to stand up with her on his shoulders. He slowly walked towards the pyramid of the gifts.Leaning a bit forward. "Careful,Don't knock off any other gift"

Yeri didn't say anything to that and quickly grabbed the gift without nudging anything to fall off. Jaewon helped put her down,finally landing on her feet. She unwrapped the gift in a hurry and took out the card that had the secret written on it.

"Ah I forgot. If the card is blue then it means it's a boy's secret and if it's pink it's a girl's secret. Yeri looks like you had a boy" He said as he pointed to the card in her hand. Joking as if she was having a gender reveal. She chuckled and just read the secret.

"I once had sex with my friend's girlfriend…..Yikes. Now which one of you homewreckers is this?" She asked jokingly, Her eyes going over everyone. Judging all of them as if they all did it.

Finally making up her mind, Taehyung looked at her walking towards who she thought it was. His amused expression turned into a confused one when she was coming closer to him.

Putting her hands on his face and pressing her lips next to Taehyung's, who didn't kiss her back. It stayed like that for barely a second before she pulled away. Bora was glaring at Yeri but had this fake smile on her face.

Walking back to the gift box and taking out the red card which was supposed to be the answer. She opened the red card and showed it to the camera,smiling because she was obviously wrong.

"Sangwoo…you already lost a point on the first box. Guy's get it together. Now Sangwoo wants to explain why you abolished the bro code like that?" Jeongguk asked him, Samgwoo scratched the back of his neck.

"In my defense,I didn't know she was dating one of my friends until I left her place and then when I met up with my friend and saw her next to him. It was a mistake" Sangwoo defended himself, they don't know If he is telling the truth but they don't have anything else to work with except his word.

"That is truly unfortunate. You and Jia are next"

They automatically decided Sangwoo would go first because Sangwoo was around 6'2 he was easily the tallest guy here so reaching the second top gift wasn't a problem for him. He just went ahead and grabbed it like it wasn't a hassle. The second one was a bit lower than the first one anyway.

He unwrapped it without any care,ripping the gift paper away and taking out the pink card out of the box. "I once used a household item as a sex toy…..Wow,that is crazy I wonder what sex toy you used…" He trailed and his eyes stopped on one girl.

"Nabi" He dashed towards her,grabbed her by the waist and quickly kissed her. Nabi chuckled into the kiss and kinda kissed him back.

After pulling away,He went back and took out the red card and opened it. A smug smile on his face as he showed it off to the camera.

"Nabi!! Congratulations we finally got one. Now wanna elaborate which household item it was?" Jeongguk's curiosity peaked. So did everyone else because that is insane.

She put her hands on her face covering her blush because she was embarrassed."..An electric toothbrush" She said in a low voice but everyone heard her and a lot of giggles and gasp left their mouths.

"Wait-so you like- oh like a vibrator?" Jimin asked her,His eyes widened in shock and he looked amused at the same time. It was quite fascinating.

"Yes,stop, I don't wanna discuss it. I was young and Horny and that was the closest thing to me to use as a sex toy so there's that. Can we move on,It's our turn right I am going" She quickly walked off towards the pyramid,not wanting to discuss her sexual experiences anymore.

Jimin just let her be because who wants the whole world to know what they're doing in their private time and watches her trying to reach for the gift.

Thankfully she got it and unwrapped it quite delicately than other contestants but in a hurry. Taking out a blue card and finally reading the confession.

"I once spent almost 2000 dollars on a first date. Wow whoever you are please come meet me after this" Nabi chuckled,saying it sarcastically. Making others gasp at the confession.

"On a first date? Woah dude take me on a date next" Taehyung also joked around,Others even agreed because who spent that much money on the first date.

"This is quite easy if you ask me" Nabi turned her heels towards the host and dashed to him.

Putting her palms on Jeongguk's cheeks and taking him into a passionate kiss. Moving her lips and The other boy even kissed her back. Putting his hands on her waist and pulling her closer made her let out a moan accidentally which made them pull away and other contestants teasing them with "ooh~" 's.

"You don't even have to see the card, it was me. If I like the person,the money isn't something I look at as long as we have a fun time. Let's just say she had a great time and we even dated for a whole year. Some people are worth spending money for" Jeongguk responded quite maturely and Taehyung like that.

He knows the audience would like it alot and he doesn't like that. Finally it was his and Bora's turn. Bora was quite short so she won't be able to reach the gift so Taehyung told her he would go.

Walked towards the pyramid which if he is being honest,Even if bora went she would have been able to grab a gift because half of the gifts were already gone. He grabbed the gift wrapped in purple heart paper and opened it up.

He saw a pink card and took it out. Reading it outloud to everyone. "I have been cheated on by every single boyfriend I have ever had….I am sorry for whoever you are, that is shit."

He examined all of the girls' faces and none of them was giving it away. Making it a bit hard for him. He decided to play it safe and walked towards Bora to gain some free brownie points.

Grabbing her by her wrist and pulling her closer to him,making her small frame crash into Taehyung's. He softly pressed his lips next to Bora's and she immediately kissed him back. Taking in his lips and moving along with them.  He heard other contestants cheer them on when they saw how heated it was getting.

Their lips moved in a perfect sync and she was honestly a good kisser. Not too much spit or tongue,just the perfect amount. Though he has to say he didn't quite feel anything with her. The kiss went on for what felt like ages but he has to go along if he wants his strategy to work.

A fake cough finally pulled them apart, which Taehyung thanked the Lord for. It was Jeongguk. "That was cool and all but we do need to move forward with the game so Please Taehyung reveal who it is" Jeongguk told him and Taehyung chuckled. Kissing Bora cheek and going back to the box.

He took out the red card and showed it to the camera. It was Bora.

"I honestly don't know why. It is just my rotten luck I guess,they all left me because they said I was too clingy. It's not my fault I'm an affectionate person" Bora rolled her eyes.

" So am I, we would go well together" Taehyung said to her,Making her blush,turning that frown upside down.

"You guys are so cute" Jimin commented with a smile on his face.

The game went on for two more rounds,with Yeri getting kissed by Sangwoo and Bora Kissing Jia (which she threw a tantrum for when she saw the pink card because how can she kiss a girl…right) both of them being wrong and making the group lose two points which wasn't working in favor for them.

"The game has turned. With 3 right and 3 wrong. The next one will decide if you win the party or not and unfortunately it is all on me." Jeongguk said Putting the script card away and grabbing one of the gifts from the pyramid. It was easy to grab.

He opened the box and chuckled when he saw a blue card, taking it out. Other contestants gave each other looks too because they didn't even know if that was allowed. He has to kiss a boy.

"I have made a sex tape….that's kinky. Lads,today is your lucky day"  Jeongguk stated with a big smile on his face. Taehyung really liked the fact he wasn't making it a big deal to kiss one of the guys.

Now was the time to decide which one of the guys he thinks it is. It took him not more than some seconds to decide before he started to go towards who he thought it was.

Taehyung has to say…he really wasn't expecting Jeon Jeongguk to come,Grab him by the waist and pull him closer. Putting his other hand on Taehyung's neck and taking him into a kiss.

His lips were exceptionally soft and felt so nice against Taehyung's. Taehyung didn't know if he should kiss back. Would that be weird?  He doesn't know and he frankly doesn't care either.

So he kissed the boy back,moving his lips to be in sync with him. He definitely heard a few gasps and some cheers from some of the contestants,not sure which. Taehyung could feel his whole body heat up for some reason. The tricky part was why was this exciting him more than his kiss with Bora.

He felt Jeongguk slid his tongue inside and that's when he stopped for a second. He could feel the younger tongue clash with his own. He put his hands on Jeongguk's shoulder and pushed him slightly. Jeongguk got the hint and just slightly bit Taehyung's lower lip before pulling away.

"Now that was one of the gayest make out sessions ever oh my god. Are you guys sure both of you are straight?" Jimin asked when he saw the flustered look on both of their faces.

"Who said I am straight? I am bisexual"  Jeongguk answered proudly. The others were shocked by the sudden confession.

"M-me too. Yeah I'm bisexual too. Good to know I'm not alone" Taehyung smiled at Jeongguk and he smiled back at him.

"Let's check if I was right. '' Jeongguk went back to the box and took out the red card. He opened it and smirked. Showing off the Answer to everyone.

"Taehyung? oh my god. you have made a sex tape???" Bora asked this time. She looked more shocked at this than the fact he's bisexual.

"Yeah I mean why not? I wanted to and so did my partner at that time. So we made a little film. Though I don't have it anymore because we broke up so I deleted it as it just didn't feel right." Taehyung explained his secret, making others nod.

"Mad respect to you Taehyung," Jaewon said to him.

"OK now that we are done. Contestants….congratulations you have won a cocktail party for tonight!!" Jeongguk announced loudly,making them all abrupt in cheering and shouting as they made their way back to Villa to get ready for the party.
