Summary: Seokmin wanted pizza and sleep. After a hectic midterm who wouldn't? His friends certainly didn't and decided that the best thing for Seokmin was to drag him to a bar. One that would cause more trouble than he wanted for his suppose to be "peaceful" afternoon.

Ending up in an underground tavern was not what Seokmin envisioned himself doing after his last midterm. As soon as he had left his final class for the day Soonyoung and Junhui came to whisk him away despite his protests. Seokmin only wanted to go back home and watch some shitty movie rather than be out, especially with some of the hardest partiers he knew.

"Come on, it's gonna be so much fun!" Soonyoung cried as they tugged him down the ramp that led to Bright Side Tavern. The name itself was captivating to Seokmin but that didn't mean he wanted to come here. He knew tavern crowds, they were rowdy and drank too much and honest to God scared him. He was all for a party but not in the way they were.

"Yeah and I think everyone is gonna be here!" Junhui added from behind where he pushed Seokmin forwards.

"Guys," Seokmin frowned desperately trying to plant his feet in cement but to no avail, "I really don't want to go. I have a perfectly good pizza and couch waiting at one for me."

Soonyoung rolled his eyes and stopped before a large wooden door, "You seriously need to spice up your life, Seokmin!"

"What's wrong with pizza and downtime?"

"You're in college! Live a little!" Junhui shook his shoulders and Seokmin frowned.

"But I do? I'm really failing to see your point."

Soonyoung rolled his eyes and opened the door, "Just get in there and have some fun!"

Junhui wasted no time in shoving Seokmin in the back to get him through the door. Seokmin stumbled, his feet tripping over air as his eyes betrayed him. The tavern was bright, that was the first thing he noticed. They definitely earned the title of Bright Side Tavern with the excessive amounts of Fluorescent lights that covered the entire place. With the amount of lights even the walls looked yellow or they might have actually been if Seokmin could get his vision back in check.

Besides the obnoxious color contrast, there were people everywhere. Many of them were already drunk despite it not being more than past 3 p.m. In the crowd he could spot several of his friends, already with mugs of beer and wild dance moves that only came out when they were hammered. This definitely wasn't what he wanted to do with his first free afternoon.

"Ay Cheolie!" Soonyoung shouted over the loud music and laughter, "Look who we dragged over!"

Seungcheol turned from his wild dancing with the group to meet the terrified eyes of Seokmin, "Ay Seokie! You decided to come!"

Seokmin frowned as Seungcheol charged him, beer in his hands sloshing out of the glass onto floor, "I only came here cause I was forcefully brought."

"Brought to have some fun," Seungcheol laughed and the scent of his alcohol tainted breath wafted into Seokmin's nostrils, "You need to loosen up all you do is study anymore."

"It was midterms what did you expect?" Seokmin frowned and played with the straps of his backpack. Soonyoung and Junhui really had pulled him straight out of music theory, giving him no time to try and nput his things away.

Seungcheol paid his words no attention and slammed the almost empty mug of beer into his hands, "Have a drink and loosen up Seokmin! Schools over!"
