"Everyone....the REAL competition is not until Friday. Today is the competition at school. Not the one in Incheon."

"Ohhhhhh~"

Namjoon sighed into the microphone. Today's class was already aggravating to him and the day has barely begun. "The judges will be here soon everyone. Thanks for coming you guys. You all will be missing all your classes today because this is probably going to take all day since I have every student in all of my class periods here."

"Mr. Kim which class period is going first?" Yoonji asked aloud.

"First period—alright the bell has rung, my first period groups please head back stage to get ready!"

The first period class went backstage and began setting up for their performance. Jimin trailed behind his group, still feeling a bit depressed from what happened to him at the cafeteria. Though it only happened weeks ago, people still gave him looks and still laughed at him, causing him to not even want to eat in the cafeteria anymore. Jimin just eats alone in his car now.

"Jimin! We have a huge problem!" Chaeah ran up to him and grabbed either side of his arms. "Tae's not here!"

Jimin frowned. "Oh no, where is he?"

"He's not coming today...Namjoon just told us that Tae had things to take care off, so we all have to cover his lines," Chaeah sighed after. "I like Tae but with him being gone it makes things a little bit tacky."

"Tell me about it," Yoonji came up from behind Chaeah. "Chaeah let's practice. You still need to get that dance move right."

As the two girls left, Jimin changed into his outfit. After that, he sat alone until Jisoo decided to sit next to him. "Hey Jimin, you okay? We haven't really been talking as of recently."

"I'm okay, it's nothing. I've just had a rough couple of weeks," Jimin mumbled.

"Yeah I feel that. I just wanted to check up on you, but I'm glad you're okay. We are...still friends right?"

Jimin looked at her and forced a smile. "Of course we are! Why wouldn't we be?"

Jisoo shrugged. "I don't know, but are you sure you're okay? You can talk to me if you want. I promise I'm a good listener."

"I'm okay, honest." Jimin looked down at his feet, and Jisoo rolled her eyes. "You're not okay...you want to tell me what's up?"

Jimin sighed a little. "Well...I don't think—"

"Oh shit...is it about what happened to you in the cafeteria?" Jisoo asked. "If it is then I'm really sorry. I don't know what's gotten into Skye to be honest with you. He's been going a bit crazy lately since him and Tae aren't on the best of terms. I guess he's taking it out on you? I'm not sure..."

"But I haven't done anything wrong? He doesn't know that I li—or...n-never mind," Jimin shook his head. "It'll be fine. He's right over there so I don't want to talk about this anymore."

Jimin stood up and walked away. Jisoo watched him, but said nothing else and stood up. She walked over to her group who was practicing for their performance.

"Looking good guys! We're gonna do amazing," Jisoo said. Jin smiled at her. "Yeah..I'm still jealous that Jungkook's group is doing Red Moon by KARD which is only like...my favorite band ever!"

"Our favorite band," Yoongi corrected and Jin rolled his eyes. "Whatever, I still like them, but I like our songs that we chose too I guess."

Minji was on her phone while the three talking to each other and Jisoo noticed and decided to do something about it. "Minji, what kpop group do you like?" she asked.
