Music and chatter filled the large house. Many guests were gathered in the rooms of focus, the living room and kitchen. Some were even enjoying time on the porch, drinking in the cool night air or having a smoke. Surely, everyone was having a grand time.

Even Namjoon, the butler employed by the homeowner, was enjoying the evening. It was a bit late for his taste, but it was fun nonetheless. He would cater to the guests and host for a while then perform some duties around the house, picking up messes and tidying up whenever he got the chance.

With a majority of the people being rather self-sufficient, the butler wasn't actually needed much to serve. So as he made his rounds through the various rooms to make sure things were in order, he took his time, being thorough.

If he hadn't been taking his time, perhaps Namjoon might not have noticed a small sound within the linen closet as he was passing by it. What was the sound? It was like a tiny pop. Curious, Namjoon opened the closet door, surprised by what he saw.

"Ah, hello there." Namjoon smiled warmly at the guest who was sitting on the floor within the closet.

The guest peered up at the butler, fidget toy in his hands."Um, hi." He seemed shy or maybe embarrassed to be discovered in the closet.

"Why are you in the closet and not enjoying the party?" Namjoon asked as he squatted down in front of the other man."Is something wrong?"

With a shake of his head, the guest popped his fidget toy."Nothing's wrong. I'm having fun." An unsure smile cracked across his lips."The music was just too loud, and there's so much talking, and the food all smells great, but I think the food is mingling too much with the scented candles, and white lightbulbs are kinda noisy."

Now Namjoon understood."You are feeling overstimulated?" When the guest nodded, Namjoon knew what he needed to do."I'll fetch you something to drink and a soft snack. Might I ask your name?" He needed to know the guest's name, in case anyone asked for his whereabouts. Besides, this guest was cute and alone. Making a new friend would surely be comforting.

"I'm Jungkook." The guest's smile twitched a little, seeming to become slightly wider as he popped his toy again."Can I have hot cocoa?"

"It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Jungkook. My name is Namjoon. And of course. I'll prepare some hot cocoa for you right away." Rising back up to his feet, Namjoon felt quite warm inside."Would you like marshmallows and whipped cream on top?"

That certainly caused Jungkook to perk up."Yes, please." He was feeling a bit better already. Having someone speak to him one-on-one helped him stop focusing so much on everything else. Hot cocoa and a light snack would definitely make him feel more at ease as well."Thank you."

"It's my pleasure." Namjoon closed the closet door before walking away to get hot cocoa and a snack for the sweet guest. He knew he had duties, but he also knew that his services were best put to use with Jungkook right now. His employer wouldn't mind, that he knew.
