Jungkook barely managed to keep track of the day of the week and time. He another long week overthinking before Monday finally arrived and classes resumed again.

He barely even managed to wake up on time before heading to campus. It was his first time leaving his house in two weeks now.

Upon arriving, Jungkook didn't go sit with his friends in the cafeteria in the mornings like he usually did. Instead, he headed to the office where students were lined up to receive their new schedules for their new semester classes that they had chosen.

Upon receiving his schedule, Jungkook looked down at the list of classes he had chosen before making his way to his first class. He hoped he wouldn't run into any of his friends or exes or even worse, have a class with them.

Much to Jungkook's luck, his first class didn't have any familiar faces. He let out a long sigh of relief before taking a seat beside a random student.

"Wow, first day back and you don't look so good," the student said.

Jungkook turned to his left to face a familiar looking guy that he'd seen walking around campus before but never learned his name.

"It's been a long winter break," answered Jungkook. "And I've seen you around before, but I never learned your name."

"My name is Yugyeom and my winter break sounded like it was so much better than yours. Tell me, how bad was it?" Yugyeom asked curiously as he leaned forward on his desk.

"I found out that my ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my boyfriend that I was dating," Jungkook replied, finding no reason to lie or give a vague answer since Yugyeom didn't know him.

"So you're not dating your boyfriend anymore?"

Jungkook shook his head no. "It was a messy breakup."

"Oh wow, that's um...an interesting way to spend the holidays," replied Yugyeom before turning back around in his seat to face the front of the class as the teacher had walked in.

At the end of the class period, Jungkook was getting ready to leave, but an arm held him back. Jungkook looked back, raising an eyebrow at Yugyeom who had stopped him.

"You never told me your name."

"Jungkook."

"Jungkook," Yugyeom said. "Well, I'll see you around."

Jungkook nodded as Yugyeom let go. They headed their separate ways to their next class. Jungkook once again hoped wouldn't have a class with his exes or friends, but luck wasn't on his side this time.

He forced himself not to make eye contact with Jimin or Hoseok. Jungkook could feel their stares burning into his back as he walked past them and took an empty seat beside another student.

"Um, there's two guys staring in our direction and I don't know if they're staring at you or me," the guy beside Jungkook spoke.

Jungkook didn't look up, afraid to catch Jimin or Hoseok's gazes or both. He turned his gaze to the student beside him. "They're probably staring at the people behind us."

"Oh, yeah most likely," the student said. "And by the way, you don't look so well."

Jungkook sighed. "I know, another student mentioned it to me in my last class. My winter break didn't go so well, but anyway, what's your name?"

"Bambam," the student replied.

"I'm Jungkook."

"Cool, you wanna be friends?"
