i contemplated rlly hard whether this should've been Sope, Vhope or Jihope nd it was so hard bc they would've all went well... anyways, i chose vhope. this is based on the lyrics of the song The Take by Tory Lanez ft. Chris Brown and holy shit the lyrics are so insanely hot i just had to write smth based on those lyrics.

Jung Hoseok was alike yet so different in many, many ways. You'd think you'd know everything about him, yet you'd know nothing at all. He was a bright boy. The curtains would rise, his heart would accelerate. Centre-stage, he would stand with his back arched and his hands would stretch to the sky, as if in submission. The lights on the stage would turn bright and the rhythm would begin to pulse into him. His feet would move to the steady beat. Back and forth, he would sway as the beat picked up the pace, moving his body like a steady stream. He danced to the gods, leaving those around him completely speechless. His smile was no different. A smile so beautiful and bright it was as if they had painted a streak of sunshine onto his face. People would invariably like to surround themselves around him, and he'd always greet them with open arms and that smile of his. No matter the consequences. They'd shower him with compliments and praises but he'd always disregard them, commenting about how it was 'nothing' and how he didn't 'deserve' these things.
Life would sometimes challenge Jung Hoseok to his absolute limit, but with practice, he learned how to navigate his way through his problems, greeting all his difficulties with a polished smile, even if sometimes it meant strapping on a life vest and holding on tight. Though, he knew. He clearly knew no one could go through tough times alone— that going through it alone, it'll soon take its toll and he'd probably have more dilemmas to deal with. The first step to having a handle on your obstacles is to acknowledge them, yet, Jung Hoseok would bottle up every emotion and obstacle that he felt would come in his way, and bottle it right up, taking the easy way out, then he'd plaster that shining smile onto his face. Even if it meant talking it out with someone— he couldn't. He couldn't because he told himself that he could handle it. That he could handle every storm that would come his way.

It wasn't long before Taehyung made his way inside. It was freezing outside but he quickly made it. Once he's in, his eyes had immediately adjusted to the darkness. There are multicoloured flashing lights on the dance floor, but they're not bright enough to reach beyond that. It's very crowded tonight. He swiftly made his way towards the bar, sweaty dancing bodies pressed and rubbing up against him. He cringed, but its the fastest way to get across the room. It doesn't even take a minute until he feels dozens of eyes on him as he passes, but its always easy for him to ignore them because he never has any interest. Just as hes weaving his way through people, he feels a firm tap on his shoulder, turning around, hes met with a sharp gaze of a woman.
"Hey, handsome," She stepped closer. "Wanna dance?" She offered, stepping up much closer to him, resting her arm onto his chest.
He grimaced.
"No thanks."
He shrugged off her hands, annoyed, as he continued to make his way through the room. Ignoring the offended look she gave him, he didn't care. He didn't come to mingle with others. He came because there was one person he was so dedicated to see. It's only a few seconds until he spots Jimin. Watching with a smile as the silver-headed man continued to down a bottle of beer.
Honestly, Taehyung was never planning on leaving his house tonight. His schedule was completely free and Jimin was well aware of this. So the man decided to invite his dongsaeng—Taehyung, to go clubbing with him tonight. The younger instantly declined, turning down the offer because he claimed he 'Wanted to catch up on sleep.' But with Jimin knowing him after all these years, he informed to the younger man that 'Hobi-hyung's going.' as if that's supposed to get him up and running. And it does. That's all the information Taehyung needeed before he's dressing up in his best-night-clubbing fit.
