bad guy

“ maybe BADA BING! to play homage to my favorite show, the sopranos. but, that would be so obvious. ”

“because sometimes, hiding a bruise isn’t worth it. people will find out eventually.” that always happened. someone always found out why said person had a bruise.  it was better to be upfront about it. at least to hana it was. “i will, i promise.” did she like that she had help from her friends? without a doubt she did. thats what she loved about them. they were always there to help her, just as she was always there for them. “i think i might. especially if those two idiots try to come back.”

                                        jaein’s   never   been   one   to   beg   ,   never   the   one   to   show   his   disdain   toward   any   task   given   to   him   over   at   the   station   ──   no   one   expected   for   him   to   say   get   someone   else   to   do   it;   after   all   ,   he   took   his   job   seriously   ──   anything   that   he   was   asked   ,   he   did   .   this   time   ,   he   just   really   hoped   the   chief   would’ve   chosen   someone   else   .   an   irritated   shake   courses   through   his   veins   at   the   sight   of   that   stupid   smirk   on   the   kid’s   face   ──   just   who   the   hell   did   he   think   he   was   ?      ‘       i   was   sent   here   because   apparently   there’s   some   dumbass   running   around   the   station   saying   he   wants   to   quote   -   on   -   quote   “   blow   your   brains   out   .   ”      ’       gaze   doesn’t   dare   to   break   away   from   dohyun’s   while   he   explains   ,   attempting   to   hide   annoyance   behind   stoic   features   .      ‘       and   as   much   i’d   like   to   be   at   home   right   now   asleep   ──           ’       he   grumbles   from   between   gritted   teeth   .      ‘       i’m   not   getting   fired   from   my   job   all   because   i   failed   to   protect   the   little   shit   treasure   you   are   .      ’

*: ･ﾟ∙ * ⁕ there’s  a  raise  of  haeil’s  brows  at  dohyun’s  words,  a  small  &  almost  DEVILISH  smirk  starting  to  pull  on  the  edges  of  his  lips  as  he  leans  forward  so  that  he  was  closer  to  the  other  —  making  sure  no  one  else  could  hear  him  when  he  whispers  into  the  other’s  ear.  "you  could  always  tease  mercilessly,  or  you  could  give  in  and  have  actual  pleasure  for  a  whole  lot  longer  than  it  lasts  when  you  don’t  get  to  touch  me  and  i  don’t  get  to  touch  you.“  he  retorts,  eyes  focusing  on  his  drink  before  he  takes  a  sip  of  it.  this  was  a  game  they  CONSTANTLY  played  but  right  now  ?  haeil  was  impatient.. he  wanted  what  he  wanted  &  he  didn’t  want  to  have  to  wait.  "if  you  knew  what  we  all  wanted,  you  and  i  wouldn’t  be  sitting  here  having  a  boring  conversation.”

the  other’s  words  fill  his  ears  &  he  can’t  help  but  to  giggle.  "well  none  of  the  other  employees  dare  to  —  hence  the  reason  it’s  ME  on  my  knees  for  you  and  not  them.“  the  dancer  quips  back  with  a  glint  of  playfulness  in  his  eye  as  he  glances  over  at  dohyun.  he  knows  he  shouldn’t  have  wandered  into  the  basement,  but  haeil’s  gained  quite  a  few  clients  because  of  that  exploration,  so  he  can’t  really  complain,  can  he  ?  "i’ll  believe  you  when  you  end  up  shutting  the  fuck  up  and  use  that  mouth  of  yours  for  better  things.”  the  silver-haired  male  retorts  with  a  slight  scoff,  though  the  second  the  other  grabs  his  chin  haeil’s  sarcasm  starts  to  fade  ever-so-slightly.  "then  why  is  it  that  we’re  still  sitting  here?“

    DOHYUN LOVED TO STRING him along, to see how annoyed and almost angry he got whenever dohyun would walk away or stop it before it went any further. so when the other leans forward to whisper in his ear, dohyun’s free hand moves to is side, holding him close as he allows the other to whisper in his ear. “ i just like hearing you say it, is that so hard ?? ” he hums, thinking about it for a moment. “ c’mon, just say it, just say you want to bounce on my cock like a good boy already. ” 

“Because your job is your LIFE.” Sasha declared with a shake of her head, wondering who he would be without it-perhaps less of a stick in the mud. “Come on, the best part is dressing up!”

                   she knew his intentions were to get under her skin , & maybe if she wasn’t so used to this back & forth of theirs , the efforts would not have gone to waste .   ’   because i like having confirmation ? i just love when you prove me right  –  it’s better than sex ,   ‘   she teases , bringing the bottle in hand to painted lips . teeth click against the glass before her head tilts back , a small grimace forming atop features as she swallows its contents . a part of her regrets giving dohyun this much power to find out personal details about parts of her life she’d much rather keep quiet . & upon hearing his next question , the regret only builds .   ’   what  – ,   '   a pause , eyebrows furrowing at the latter comment .   ’   baek is fine … & you’re a fucking asshole . but truthfully , i feel like you’re working on it considering how much time you’re spending with xiaosi . he’s really helpful .   '   arden leans in then , elbows propped on her knees as she pretends to think for a moment , knowing the answer to his question before the orchestrated dramatics ,   ’   jun’s better , actually . i’ll be sure to have him call you with advice .   ’   

*: ･ﾟ∙ * ⁕ “oh  so  you  mean  by  flirting  with  me  endlessly  and  then  leaving  me  high  and  dry?  what  a  ’REWARD’  that  is.  i’ll  start  believing  that  when  you  actually  bite  as  much  as  you  love  to  bark.”  haeil  quips  back  almost  instantly,  no  regret  found  in  his  tone,  smirk  dancing  across his  lips  as  he  speaks.  "no,  you  aren’t  forcing  them  to  be  here.  you  give  them  the  chance  they  never  thought  they’d  have  so  they  take  it  as  much  as  it’s  offered.“  he  shrugs  lightly,  eyes  fixated  on  the  other’s  figure.  "as  if  you  need  that.”

“i  don’t  expect  you  to  help  me,  or  what  i  see.  though  it  might  be  far  more  off-putting  for  some  of  your  OTHER  employees.  wouldn’t  want  to  lose  what  they’re  bringing  in,  now,  would  you?”  the  silver-haired  male  continues,  fingers  dancing  up  the  other’s  shirt  only  to  fix  the  collar  of  it  before  returning  to  their  place  on  the  bar’s  counter.  "do  you  know  how  many  times  you’ve  flirted  with  me  only  to  back  out  of  it  or  tell  me  to  go  back  to  work,  dohyun?“  he  asks,  voice  a  little  lower  than  before.  "you  are  all  bark,  love.  i  don’t  think  you  have  it  in  you  even  if  you  TRIED.”

    DOYUN LETS OUT a laugh at haeil’s words, shaking his head a bit as the other seems to enjoy teasing him. “ it’s cute to watch you get all excited and handsy only to be left angry and frustrated. the look on your face is magnificent, to say the least. ” and that wasn’t a lie, dohyun loved to tease and tease, get the other so frustrated just to make him wait — it was almost like their own little game. he sends the other a wink before taking a sip of his new drink that had just been delivered. “ i’m a business man, haeil, i know what the population wants. and they want to seem important, so i give them that chance to believe. ”

“You’re going to have an old man face by the time you’re thirty.” Sasha teases, awed by the fact someone so young could appear so serious. “You’d make a great Bruce Wayne for Halloween.”

                  there’s a strange comfort she found in the confines of olympus - it’s because of how accustomed she is to being there . a routine that her family set for her which she felt as though she had no choice but to follow . but now ? arden associated the club with nights of nonstop intoxication & unkept secrets . & maybe the fact her interest in other peoples lives had an overbearing hold on most of the questions she even bothered to ask .   ’   who says i don’t already know ? you like to think you’re way more mysterious than you actually are . remember that ,   ‘   she retorts , watching intently as he riffles through the contents of her bag . in fact , she probably knows far more information than she should considering her chats with xiaosi - ones of which seemingly never hold back on detail . yet arden won’t admit that fact , at least not for now .   ’   not my fault you’re boring .   ’   she grips onto her purse once again , putting it near the foot of couch she is currently occupying . the softest beam forms at the edges of her lips at his next statement ; it was the closest she would get to prodding information , & at this point it was probably the best she would get . if it meant sparing some information about her private life , then so be it .   '   fine . i’ll even let you ask first so you know i’m serious .  –  go .   ’

*: ･ﾟ∙ * ⁕ “oh  god,  please  let  me  hear  the  speech  you  tell  every  customer  that  comes  in  here  who  asks  you  what  i  just  did  —  it’ll  be  so  hot.”  haeil  retorts,  rolling  his  eyes  in  return,  though  there’s  a  small  smirk  that  pulls  on  his  lips  as  he  speaks.  "i’m  slightly  offended  that  you  decided  to  leave  out  your  AMAZING  dancers  from  that  list  of  reasons,  but  i  do  see  your  point.  people  will  pay  anything  just  to  feel  special.“  the  dancer  nods  lightly,  eyes  following  the  others  towards  the  vip  section  with  a  slight  chuckle.  "it’s  almost  kind  of  mean  when  you  think  about  it.  but  hey,  it’s  paying  the  bills.”

“i’ve  already  witnessed  one   person  getting  killed,  i’d  rather  not  think  about  having  to  see  that  here  to.”  haeil  teases  with  a  soft  tone,  though  he  does  still  worry  about  his  safety  after  that  night.  "i  get  it.  just  make  sure  this  cover  actually  stays  solid.  you  don’t,  you  get  fucked  over  and  i  lose  my  job.“  the  sliver-haired  male  continues,  lightly  nudging  the  other’s  arm  with  his  elbow.  "well  with  such  a  wonderful  invite  as  that,  who  am  i  to  tell  you  no?”  the  smirk’s  returned  to  haeil’s  lips  as  he  speaks,  turning  his  body  on  the  stool  to  fully  face  dohyun.  "i’ll  agree  to  it,  only  if  you  promise  to  only  flirt  your  ass  of  with  me  if  you  plan  on  doing  something  about  it  later.“

    “ YOU KNOW THAT my dancers are my number one money makers, i like to reward you in my own way. ” he can’t help but send him a wink before letting the other continue speaking, nodding his head a bit. “ some people might think it’s mean, but i’m not forcing people to spend their money here, they’re willingly doing that. don’t know if it’s mean or just smart. but then again, i’m always trying to boost my own ego. ”

countenance  on  the  verge  of   perplexed     —–    he  expects  his  company  to  be   unwanted   at  all  times   ,   but  that’s  his  own  projection   .   venture  toward  exit  ultimately  derails  upon  direct  mention  of  what  they  did  together  the   last   time  they  shared  this  space    ,    jaehwan   gulping   nervously  as  he  lets  out  a  dry  chuckle   .    ‘    right   ,     ’     he  mutters   ,   long  limbs  carrying  him  closer  to  other  by  just  a  few  inches  so  he  can  set  his  bag  back  down  on  the  floor   .    ‘    uh   …   okay   ,   sure   ,   i’ll  take  a  coke   &   whiskey  if  that’s  alright   .    ’    and  while  he  waits   ,   jae  idly  stands  at  a  reasonable  distance   away   from  dohyun   ,   just  out  of   habit   . 

––––––– 「   the noise coming from the swarm of people moving around him, and against each other, was almost enough to drown out any words coming xiaosi’s way if he hadn’t been expecting to hear such a familiar voice.    “    yeah, well i didn’t realize that collecting all of my own clothes on the way out would mean going on a scavenger hunt through your apartment.   ”   xiaosi smirked, eyes moving to trace the profile of the taller boy’s face as the flashing lights danced across it.    “   you know, if you wanted to see me again you didn’t have to keep half my suit from the other night.   ”

                   xiaosi wasn’t used to coming to the club which such specific intentions  ––  or simple ones, given that he really hadn’t contacted dohyun for much else besides to return his clothing for once.  xiaosi much preferred to tag along whenever an invitation was extended to him and in his own true fashion, see where that took him. it just so happened that more and more regularly, that destination seemed to be anywhere that either he or dohyun figured that no one would be too excited to interrupt them. xiaosi glanced back at the bar already packed with people waiting shoulder to shoulder for a drink, something that he had held off on getting for himself until then. he laughed, already finding trying to make any sort of small talk for once slightly ridiculous,   “    sorry if i pulled you away from work, though. it really seems like this place is already falling down without you locked away in that office.   ”    」

    A CHUCKLE LEAVES his lips at the others words, his eyes meeting the others as he notices xiaosi scanning over his face. “ you didn’t ?? from the way you were taking my clothes off in the car home i figured you’d realize that. ” although to be fair, dohyun was less than careful when he was flinging the garments off, not even bothering to look where they landed. a hum passes his lips at the others words, his hand moving to snake around the boy, press against the small of his back. “ i figured you left it for me to remember you by, a little bit of a gift. but when i realized that it was your socks and belt i figured it’d be better to give them back. ”

Sasha chuckled, watching as the other remained passive and indifferent to his surroundings. All work and no play makes him a VERY dull boy in her opinion yet Sasha only replied with a shrug, sipping her cocktail as the music played. “That sounds so depressing.”

“it could but i don’t want to hide it.” hiding it wasn’t her thing. well when it came to the other injury she had, hiding it was what she wanted to do. but a bruise? that wasn’t something huge to  hide. “call me crazy but hiding a bruise is pointless.” her parents were bound to find out anyway.  "next time they come, if they even bother coming back, i’ll be sure to let you know.“ even though she was sure she could handle it, having some backup to help was always nice.

            ❝    it   shouldn’t   be   an   issue   ,   i   own   the   place.   ❞    nixon’s   lips   upturned   into   a   sweet   smile   as   he   looked   down   at   the   familiar   patron   dining   at   one   of   seoul’s   trendiest  restaurants   ;   that   he   coincidentally   owned.   the   waiters   around   him   scrambled   to   place   the   tables   together   —-   as   he   requested.   he   took   a   seat   that   was   pulled   out   for   him   by   a   nervous   employee   ;   he’d   be   sure   to   tip   generously.   he   then   asked   for   wine   that   seemed   to   magically   appear   upon   his   request.   ❝   i   apologize   in   advance   for   this   strange   encounter.   there’s   a   few   business   sharks   eyeing   me   like   i’m   a   piece   of   meat.   ❞   nixon   raised   the   rim   of   the   wine   glass   to   his   lips.    ❝    i’d   much   rather   spend   my   time   with   you   then   them.   ❞   he   said   with   a   wink   before   taking   a   generous   sip   of   the   cabernet.
