Immortals
Chapter 1: Present day
“Okay four flaming soju shots and one glass of wine. Is there anything else I can get for the five of you? Maybe something for the ladies?” You smiled at the five guys in the booth not really paying attention to their faces. After the third week of working at the club they all started to blur together anyway. Besides, it didn’t matter in a few minutes you’d be back on the dance floor with your best friends. At least until someone else needed a drink or made a mess and you had to clean it up. You’d begged and pleaded with them to wait until your night off, but they ignored you like always. Speak of the devils and they came dancing over to the edge of the raised platform where you were standing with Lilly blowing her own out soju shot and tossing it back like it was nothing.
“Yo, Alex are you going to leave us to dance alone all night?! what happened to that party hard Atlanta girl I knew freshman year of SCAD?!” Lilly hollered up at you and Autumn made kissy faces at you while still dancing to her own beat and drinking liquid courage out of a glass. The English was a stark difference to what you had gotten so used to hearing over the last two years. You had moved to Seoul when your Halmeoni became ill shortly after college and this was the first time they had been able to visit in all that time. You and Lilly had met in a club much like this one back in Georgia and been friends ever since but you and Autumn had grown up together in Savanna and now here the three of you were millions of miles away from that home. You slid down in a lithe motion through the bars after you made sure the guys didn’t need anything else landing softly on the heels you were wearing and followed them onto the floor.
“Y’all are damn lucky that Myongjin hasn’t thrown your asses out yet for distracting me from my job.” you told them dancing like an idiot to a song that was blasting through the speakers. You all were actually great dancers but tonight was about fun and Myoungjin was an old friend of your cousin’s so he wouldn’t really kick them out and you knew it.
“Oh come on someone had to get your little ass on the dance floor! Besides you get off in 20 minutes anyway!” Autumn hollered over the music. You were close to the middle of the crowd when you saw one of the waitresses point to a familiar customer over at the bar.
“ugh. jinjja? Hey guys I will be back some pabo broke a glass and I have to clean it up.” This guy was always in here and everyone hated him but he was also one of the club’s best paying customers so we had to keep him happy.
***********************************Big Bang POV*********************************
Oh yeah immortality had definitely had its perks, but it was nothing compared to when they returned to Korea ten years ago and became Big Bang. Jiyong and the others wanted for nothing. Hunting was easier and the coven had taken them back under the guise of being an entertainment company. Ten years had been nothing but a big party for them and here they were celebrating the anniversary in one of their own clubs and in the company of three gorgeous women who after a little coaxing from Seungri were too ‘high’ to notice that they were being fed on. The only downside to the fame and the fans was that it came with cameras too. Jiyong could handle them but it took a little more to change what technology saw than it did to mess with a mind. they were all joking and drinking when Youngbae looked up.
“Ji. there’s a camera.” He muttered before putting his focus back on the girl in his lap who was giggling and enjoying the attention.
“I got it.” Ji said waiving his hand annoyed and all the camera got was a blurred shot with a light blocking the booth. A few moments later the waitress came up with the drink orders they had put setting down the shots in a line and lighting them with a match before passing Seunghyun his wineglass.
“Okay four flaming soju shots and one glass of wine. Is there anything else I can get for the five of you? Maybe something for the ladies?” The waitress asked smiling then looked behind herself like she’d heard something but Seungri noticed a hand on her ankle which must have been what got her attention.
“Yo, Alex are you going to leave us to dance alone all night?! what happened to that party hard Atlanta girl I knew freshman year of SCAD?!” The girl who had grabbed her ankle yelled up in English. Southern accent sounded like which caught all of their attention because it wasn’t something they usually heard here. The waitress held up a hand and turned back around to smile at them a slight blush on her face.
“Mianhae. Are you sure you don’t need anything else?” she asked apologizing for the interruption and smiling in Seungri’s direction.
“Ani. We’re good.” Daesung said wincing a little when he swallowed his shot and earning a chuckle from Youngbae. Seungri’s eyes however hadn’t left the human waitress the entire time.
“Gwaenchan-a. If you need me just hit the button and I will be right over.” she said before turning around and sliding through the bars. Her shirt lifted slightly revealing part of an intricate tattoo on her hip before she landed on the ground next to the two Americans.
“Y’all are damn lucky that Myongjin hasn’t thrown your asses out yet for distracting me from my job.” the waitress said her Korean dialect disappearing from her voice almost completely being replaced by an American accent.
“Seungri. Seungri. Seungri. Annyeong. Yah! Lee Seunghyun if you don’t answer me I will get that crazy fan from earlier back over here and convince her that you are in love.”
“If you do Jiyong I will kill her this time.” Seungri snapped. That girl had been a nightmare all week and it had taken everything in him not to snap her neck on impulse tonight when she came over. Jiyong laughed at the cringe that Seungri made before downing his shot and kissing the girl in his lap.
“Then pay attention next time Dongsaeng. I can’t make all the major decisions.” Jiyong said still amused with himself.
“Decisions about what?” Seungri asked.
“We were talking about how we haven’t been on a hunt in a while and wondering if it would even be worth the trouble. Except for YB and Jiyong we can’t just leave with food easily. not with the fans and the cameras everywhere.” Seunghyun said.
“Who are you kidding? Seungri won’t go for it. He hasn’t even spoken about a hunt since we were in France with that girl what was her name again?” Taeyang teased. He loved getting a rise out of Seungri but the younger vamp didn’t say a word just avoided the older one’s gaze. You wouldn’t have even realized he was angry if at that moment his glass hadn’t shattered into a hundred tiny pieces. Daesung tilted his head when he heard the familiar voice of the waitress come from the dance floor.
“ugh. jinjja? Hey guys I will be back some pabo broke a glass and I have to clean it up.”
“yah, is she really going to come over here?” He said when he moved his hair out of his face and saw her headed in their direction.
“Mwo?” the four of them looked up realizing what he’d said. Youngbae’s girl was already a little lethargic and mumbling when he shoved her off of his lap with a loud complaint coming from her as she straightened her dress.
“The waitress she is heading this way.” Daesung repeated.
“Get lost.” Jiyong told the girls wiping blood off his mouth.
“Forget all of this and go get some food. If you feel sick go to the hospital.” Seungri ordered and the girls nodded slightly scared but when they left the booth they were giggling and talking like none of the events of the past half an hour had even happened. The waitress smiled at them but kept walking hesitating for a second when she saw the broken glass on their table.
“I’ll be right back to get that cleaned up.” She said with a begrudging smile that stayed plastered to her face while she went to clean up the other patron’s mess. From the looks of things this guy had done it on purpose just to watch her clean it up but when he smacked her on the ass it took Tae’s hand on Seungri’s arm to stop him from interfering.
“Don’t. I want to watch this.” He said when the girl stood back up and crossed her arms. They watched with mild interest until they heard the man’s bones crack then their attention couldn’t be torn away.
“She’s stronger than I thought.” T.O.P was the one to speak first.
“I guess now we know our next target. Ri, you’re okay with that right?” Taeyang jibed.
“Mwo?” Ri’s head whipped around at the sound of his name.
“Don’t fall in love with her this time either.” Daesung said.
“Oh come on let him live a little. You know it isn’t half as fun if they don’t trust us first.” Jiyong said laughing.
*************************************Y/n POV***********************************
“Sagwa.” You said crossing your arms. Lilly and Autumn had seen the entire thing and were making a bee line for you and the bartender Myongjin was already shifting to see if you were going to need help as well.
“Wae? huh. You wear a short skirt and expect me to apologize?” He scoffed.
“Gwaenchan-a. be more careful with your glass next time Ahjussi.” You told him and turned to leave. he wrenched you by the arm and you hissed at the sharp bruising pain.
“Let go and apologize. That’s your last warning.” You said grabbing him by his wrist that was still on your arm but he ignored you and squeezed harder shaking you a little bit.
“You’re warning me? Pretty waitresses like you should know their pla- Aiiiissshhh!” He said as you twisted his wrist out of socket breaking the bone and hooked his foot out from under him. He hit the ground landing on the already injured arm glaring at you.
“Myongjin call the hospital and a cab. His wrist looks broken from where he fell on it and he’s drunk.” You said pouring the broken glass into a nearby trash can. and walking back over to clock out of your shift before rejoining your friends where they were standing.
“Are you alright?” Lilly asked looking back and forth between you and the guy on the ground.
“Gwaenchan-a.” You said through gritted teeth forgetting that she didn’t understand Korean.
“She said she’s fine. come on we should probably get her a drink though.” Autumn covered for you and led you to a booth near where the guys you’d been waiting on earlier sat.
“Are you sure you’re okay y/n?” Lilly asked again getting a familiar glint in her eyes.
“Yes Lil I am fine. Why?” You said tiredly and took your shot.
“Because that cute guy from the table earlier is comin’ this way to check on you.” she said pointing in his direction. You hadn’t recognized them before but seeing him headed towards you you felt like an idiot.
“That cute guy is probably coming over here to fire me. That’s Seungri. One of the members of big bang and one of the owners of this club. This is just not my night. Hand me that shot.” You grumbled and tipped it back to calm your nerves. When Seungri got to your table you suddenly remembered about the broken glass that had been left on their table.
“Oh. Mianhaeyo. I told you I would clean up that glass for you. I will be right over.” You stumbled through the words sitting down your third shot and standing up but he grabbed you by the arm, gently so that you could pull away if you wanted but when you winced he looked down realizing that he’d stuck his own hand right over the bruises that the drunk had left and dropped your arm.
“I didn’t come over here about the glass or to fire you. Me and the guys had a talk with Myongjin. He said that guy comes in here and does this every week. Is that true?”
“How did you…. Ne, he is in here every week.” you said wondering how he’d heard you earlier over the noise in the club.
“Why didn’t you tell one of us? We could have had him thrown out.” He demanded and you thought his eyes changed from brown to a reflective mercury color but you ignored it. You didn’t mean to snap at him but after everything else you’d had it.
“You’re angry at me? What was I supposed to do walk up to the biggest Idol group in Korean and go ‘excuse me I’m sorry to interrupt you while you are playing tonsil hockey with some random fan but one of your best paying customers is a sexist asshole that keeps grab-assing your waitresses.’ that would have gone over real well.” You heard your friends laugh in the background and glared at the two of them. You also heard the other members laughing from their booth and wondered how loud you had actually been.
“Mianhae. I am still a little stressed from earlier and I was drinking. please don’t fire me. I need this job.” You pleaded and he grinned at you before saying the last thing you expected.
“Have a drink with me.”
“Mwo?”
“You heard me. I won’t fire you if you have a drink with me.”
Notes
Okay so going in a new direction with this. this is the immortals series that I started a while back. I got a little way into it and decided that it wasn’t worth continuing the way I had written it before. If you liked reading about Alex and the way it was going I apologize. No one said anything so I went with my gut. I think I will keep the character names roughly the same. i.e. Alex Park = y/n and vice versa if you want to follow it like that. Bold is English, Romanized is spoken and italics/ hangul are for text messages
