AUTHOR'S POV

Jongin should have immediately turned around the second the strobe lights and horrific music booming through the stereo hit his senses. The place was dingy, filled with too many men who were probably married and shouldn't be there in the first place. He frowned as he spotted the "VIP" lounge and the loudest part of the club.
The area with his friends in it.
"Well look who decided to show up." Sehun rang out smugly as Jongin sat next to him in the booth. The younger handed him a glass of something and Jongin immediately sat it on the table in front of him.
"Took a break from your big CEO office to come see the small people?" Sehun asked with a smirk. "Come on dude, even Kyungsoo showed up on time." Sehun motioned over to said small man in a business suit awkwardly receiving a lap dance by a gorgeous woman.
Jongin rolled his eyes and gave him a pointed look, "Says the guy running his own fortune 500 company? Shove off, brat."
Sehun grabbed his chest, feigning a hurt expression before breaking into a playful smile. "Chanyeol will be happy to see you."
Jongin looked around the small area for said groom-to-be, "I can't believe that string bean is getting married tomorrow."
Sehun snorted, "I am just as shocked as you. Believe me." He took a shot of something clear and flagged the waitress for another. "Drink." He told Jongin.
Jongin refused and decided to get up and at least say his greetings to everyone. If he made himself known enough he could probably sneak out before they forced him to watch yet another stripper take off her top.
"You came!" A loud boisterous, and very drunk, voice called out to him and Jongin was tackled into a sloppy hug. "Oh my GOD, Jongin you came to my bachelor party. I'm getting MARRIED." Chanyeol stood up, swaying a bit and grabbing Jongin's shoulders for support.
Jongin couldn't help but laugh at the sight, "Your fiance is going to be so pissed when she sees how hungover you are at the alter."
Chanyeol tried to put his finger against Jongin's lips to shush him, but instead it went up the man's nose and he jerked back. "You just be quiet," he slurred, "I am having a good time."
Jongin pushed Chanyeol into the chair behind him and he was soon welcomed by the greetings of the rest of his college friends. Baekhyun put another drink in Chanyeol's hand and motioned for one of the girls to come dance on him.
"Surprised you still knew how to enter into a club," Baekhyun teased and Jongin hit his arm causing him to wince.
"I wanted to be here for Chanyeol, but it's obvious you've already taken care of that." They both watched Chanyeol as he forced the stripper to sit on his lap and look at his engagement photos. Jongin gave her credit, she took it like a champ. She knew where the money was at.
Baekhyun laughed and shook his head, "What kind of a best friend would I be if I didn't get him drunk as hell the night before his wedding?"
Jongin rose an eyebrow, "A good one?"
Baekhyun rolled his eyes and grabbed Jongin's arm, dragging him to the back of the room, "I got you a party gift. A goodie bag, if you will." He wiggled his eyebrows and Jongin was suddenly filled with dread.
"No, Baek...I don't..."
Baekhyun turned around and shot him a look, "Listen, man. I spent a lot of my father's money here tonight and everyone's leaving with a private show. Now, I'd love to take all these ladies on at once, but even I can't do something like that. So go let a pretty girl wiggle her ass in your face for ten fucking minutes and then you can leave and I'll tell all the guys what a great time you had here tonight."
