☠ Late Night

@rkjiho

     Yoongi really loved the idea of a good and fun night out, drinking and enjoying some good music at the same time. He had heard from one of his friends that there would be some sort of birthday party at the club for some guy, he forgot the name really, and the friend asked him to come chill and have a few drinks. Of course, Yoongi being someone who never turned down alcohol or a good time, agreed. He didn’t mind crashing some strangers party, though would it really be considered ‘crashing’ when he had been invited? Either way he definitely didn’t reject the offer.

     He makes his way into the club, glancing around after sending a quick text to his friend asking where he’s at. Not too long after he looks down at his phone before he makes his way past all of the people who were dancing to the beat of the music, some holding drinks in their hands. This was a place he frequented so it didn’t take him long to find his friend up in the vip lounge with the rest of, what Yoongi was guessing, the group that was there for this guys party. What the hell was his name again? Hell, that didn’t matter to him. He was just here for the drinks anyway.

     Once he’s knocked a couple times, he figures it’s alright to enter and opens the door, making his way into the room. He gives a slight nod to his friend who makes his way over towards him, patting him on the back. “You actually made it!” The male says this probably a little too loud, though that’s just how he was. Always loud and more of the ‘annoying’ type when it came to being around him, though Yoongi had to admit that he did know how to throw some decent parties. “Let me introduce you to everyone!” More yelling.

     His friend begins by introducing the more ‘random’ guests that he had invited for this event, he guessed that they were all friends of whoever’s birthday party this was, though when he gets to the last person he gives a big grin to the male. “And this guy right here is the birthday boy of course!” Yoongi gives another slight nod in response, feeling like he’s going deaf in his right ear from the yelling going on, the very unnecessary yelling. “Zico, this is Yoongi, the friend I was telling you about. The one I said you should definitely meet because you two actually are similar in some ways.” He says this more as a joke, though either way Yoongi still glares at his friend and shrugs his arm off of his shoulder. “Is there a reason why you’re being so damn loud?”

     His tone shows he’s annoyed by the other, well more like annoyed that he was just yelling this whole time when he didn’t even have to. He ignores the death glare he gets from his friend then turns his attention to the person named ‘Zico’ and speaks. “Nice to meet ya. Also happy birthday.” His tone is pretty relaxed though, definitely more chill compared to the dumbass standing next to him yelling. So that’s what his name was, Zico. How could he forget such an easy name to remember? Right, because he had been lost on the thought of alcohol that he didn’t bother really remembering the person’s name until now.

#lights, camera, action ! ° [ + ] lee, jihyun —————— ✦ ˟   › ! royal survival &. episode seven: filming day ( feat. noh jihoon ) ┄ ·˚₊ 

it’s an endless game of waiting ; time moving like a pendulum. swinging to and fro, every second noted with conscious effort as she watches the others go before her. waiting for her turn was a game she was beginning to hate the longer it took; every time the director snapped his action! and cut! had her on high alert, line of vision vying for the source of sound only to chasten when she realizes her turn has yet to come. it all brings forth the mantra she’s been chanting for the last half hour -- one she recalls from the hour she had spent practicing with noh jihoon: don’t worry, and you won’t mess up. 

         pretty much,         a nicer way of saying: try to not to fuck it up too badly. 

if jihyun had been given the choice prior, she would have thrown caution to the wind and gone first -- wanting to get over it. whether or not, fools would be made from her performance; anything was better than this torture that was the waiting game. to make matters worst, her turn wouldn’t even come as quickly as she hoped. she was dead last, there was no running from being the one people would leave the day with the most recent impression cast. 

she dreaded to think that she’d somehow fuck up and that would be the end of it. among the girls, she sees herself divided -- her experience from dream high, though one to be noted on her resume, was little to account for. small scenes and very few lines to back up that experience did nothing when she knew the other girls were destined to shine in front of the camera in ways that jihyun would assume to pale in. her colors were in her voice, not her acting.

but she hopes to at least not be mediocre. and in the event, she somehow does well ( well being a objective term, well somehow equating that she wasn’t the worst of the day ), then maybe she’ll see that it isn’t so different than a performance on the stage. after all, didn’t she want to portray a story with her voice -- acting would should be the same way, right?

she runs over the lines once more -- a script that’s referenced more than once in the last hour as her time comes near. the nerves functioning upright; an appearance out of thin air that takes a hold of her legs, ankles shaking as she shifts in her seat. all this time and now her tail had to cower between her legs?

“lee jihyun!” it’s automatic, the way her smile rises and the shaking ceases. she keeps her head held high at the right moments, bowing as she enters the circle of cameras and crew that decorate the main set. it’s that rush of adrenaline that has her eyes uneasy; least meeting her eyes as they go from noh jihoon to so jisub at the far corner. jihyun doesn’t know who she wants to impress more. her esteemed sunbae who had worked so hard all day helping all the girls, including herself, get their scenes just right ( and disrespect the time and hard work that they had put into their practice ) or her critical ceo who had all her hopes and dreams dangling on a string -- ready to be tied or cut with a single gesture. 

a small minute to herself clears her mind, a gulp made as she spares a glance back to jihoon -- leveling her gaze with him enough to note the smile he throws her way. and in that instance, she breathes a little more calmly. as if his smile had been the answer she had been searching for all this time. she lets air passively relieve itself from the constriction her muscles had on her lungs and relaxes. 

“okay -- it’s been a long day, but this is our last girl for the day! take your places, actors!” 

and just like that the pressure builds and jihyun has to force herself to restrain the nerves climbing along her spine. she moves; feet a mobile rush that get her to the couch, seated with her palms placed in her lap; tapping at her knees -- a nervous tick that helps little to sate the troublesome trembles. “alright! quiet on the set -- ready?” no. jihyun breathes in through her nose.

          “action!” 

and exhales heavily from her lips. 

so it begins, the silence of the room welcomes jihyun. there’s so little one can say but so much more that can be done as shown as the camera pans into her movement, capturing each facet that is sewn in her notions. from the way fingers tremble ( some from the nerves, some from methodical acting ), to how the very same fingers run through her hair. an obvious frustration run along every curve until the frown on her face is disturbed by the brown tendrils that fall into her eyes as she gets up from the couch and makes her way to the dresser; pulling the doors open.

handfuls of clothing, dressed upon hangers are pulled into her arms. the articles placed in the luggage; slowly, painfully so -- as if begging to be stopped. once all the clothes have filled the luggage, she takes her seat back on the couch. a pause as she reaches for the lid of the case; bringing it to a close but refraining from actually locking it. fingers touch the locks; a passing moment before the distinct sound click! is heard in the quiet studio.

          “cut! onto the next scene,” 

far more in her element -- a lighter change of atmosphere. where smiling isn’t so hard to come by. where laughter is actually genuine when thrown by jokes and glancing that teeter on intimate. it’s a tale jihyun weaves with a certain australian boy but he’s no where to be found. somehow, she makes do -- in jihoon’s eyes she sees rome and that’s all that matters to her. to her, this was the only way to make it a ounce believable ; at least there was real love in those dark brown hues of hers. 

that couldn’t be easily faked. but in each embrace, every brush of her fingertips against his jaw, each look; jihyun feels a tiny pang in her heart. it’s small but carries the biggest weight. pulls it along with her in every turn and tightening of her arms around his waist. it deepens her laughter and furthers the resolve; she may have his trophy, it would only suit jihyun to return the favor.

to make it all the way to the end; making the absence of his presence worth it. 

that has her smiling more -- brighter as she looks on at jihoon, smile turning bashful when his own hands capture her face to pull back dark curls from her eyes. 

          “and cut! last scene, everyone -- let’s try to make it in one take!”

among the scenes practiced, jihyun favors the way the tears begin to roll down her cheeks. during practice, she hadn’t been able to bring herself to cry. the light atmosphere being the cause; and more often than not, whenever she had tried to cry, all that would end up coming out was the vein in her forehead from the strain she was putting on the attempt. 

but of course, once the cameras had begun rolling -- it was as if the mighty dam that held her tears from her water ducts had been broken. due south they came; running the course of her cheeks -- coloring them pale and pink as she cried. where her fingertips had once graciously touched his jaw, they tried to get him to look at her -- her own tries to get him to stay were useless. in each instance, his own hands pulled hers off -- away, discarded. 

in it, she tries to keep the task at hand at the front of her mind -- delving into her past would be the worst of it. perhaps, the biggest of her problems if they were to surface. she resists to use it as her driving force -- instead pushes them, her, him, everyone one of them the furthest from her mind. each one of her loves, a token of her heart broken off for every one that decided to run away with it. it finally breaks her -- takes her mind away from the scene only for a moment, right when the tears begin to fall consistently, gathering at her chin.

her voice were beginning to phase in and out in trembles as she took his hand only to be pushed away; another attempt and an even harder push. again, where arms wind around his waist; face hidden into the plane of his back. 

“please don’t go.”

they tighten, loosen -- break as he pulls them apart and forces her off of him. he’s pauses in his movements, hands letting go of her own; a second away from stalking off but not before looking her dead in the eye and speaking the very last lines in the script.

          “enough, we’re done.” 

he departs and it’s emotional, it hurts and jihyun can feel the way the emotions are catching up to her. fingers pull back tendrils, frustratingly wiping at the tears left on her cheeks as she collapses to the floor; head downcast as her tears continue to fall. 

          “and that’s a wrap, everyone! that’s it for today!” 

the director calls it. the sound of the board slamming shut marks the end of the day; she can hear the tired sighs simultaneously echoing each other as she rises to stand. taking it in small strides as she bows to each of the staff and crew, especially thanking the one who graces her with a towel to wipe the last of the tears that had stuck upon her reddened cheeks. 

but she refrains from pushing the tough terry along her skin, instead she makes a point to catch jihoon before he truly leaves. the towel handed his way, “i was going to use it -- but i thought you might need it more than me considering i already used your shirt as my tissue.” she says before bowing, thanking him for not giving up on her despite the numerous attempts at each scene. 

“i really couldn’t have done it without you, sunbae.”

new in town.

some exciting news had reached shiah’s ears over the past weekend that involved a friend she hadn’t thought she’d see again for quite some time. kim jiho, or bella as shiah knew her, was in town, permanently? it was a the best piece of news she had had this year so far. she could still remember some of their endeavours together back in england. it had been nice, because with bella shiah had been able to relax a little and be herself more. there was no one from back home around to make her feel like she had to fake perfection all the time. so having bella around was a huge relief - it was someone who knew shiah for her, and it was a friend in general!

trainee life had eaten up so much of her time, but the hard work was paying off with how happy the coaches seemed to be to let her have a little time on the weekends here and there. it’s shiah, she’s ahead already, she can afford an evening off. those words made her smile as they echoed through her ears, her feet scuffling through the slush on the sidewalks of seoul. she was heading to a little meeting point they had agreed upon. since bella was new to seoul, shiah had offered to show her around. she’d just have to get used to being called shannon again, since that was the name she had used in england. shannon yoo. she hadn’t gone by that name in a long time.

“bella!” her english chimed out, nearly untouched by time despite the lack of use it had. not many people spoke in english with her around seoul. maybe she should take some classes at royal to brush up on it... “bella! it’s been so long!” her slight accent slipped out as she went to hug the other girl. ah, she was as beautiful as ever, even more so now. boys would be swooning over her in no time here. “i can’t believe you’re here! this is amazing!”

notes: a song her ex-boyfriend, jiho, gifted to her after their breakup a year later. he gave it to her, a sign of closure; it was bittersweet. a sullen goodbye. she took in his words, cherished them and accepted them. and she couldn’t help herself, because soon after, she added to them ( aka. jenniek’s part ) .

사랑의 본명은 분명히 증오 희망은 실망과 절망의 부모 어느새 내 얼굴에 드리워진 그림자가 너란 빛에서 생긴 걸 몰랐을까

너와 내 사이에 시간은 멈춘 지 오래 언제나 고통의 원��은 오해 하기야 나도 날 모르는데 네가 날 알아주길 바라는 것 그 자체가 오해

사람들은 다 애써 웃지 진실을 숨긴 채 그저 행복한 것처럼 사랑이란 말 속 가려진 거짓을 숨긴 채 마치 영원할 것처럼 

( the real name of love is definitely hatred hope is the parent of disappointment and despair why didn’t i know that the shadow that has cast over my face was created from the light called, you

it has been a while since the time between you and i has stopped, misunderstanding is always the cause of pain well i don’t even know myself so my hope for you to know me is a misunderstanding itself

people smile with an effort, hiding the truth as if they’re happy while hiding the lie in the word love as if it will be forever )
