Jimin sat stiffly as if he forgot to breathe, secretly planning a few murders in his mind, starting from his bench-mate. "Alright, if we are doing this, you are gonna have to do it my way." Jimin turned towards Jungkook who was pretending to read.

Jungkook did not look up when he heard Jimin's voice and only listened as if he did not care but deep down, he was afraid. It was scary to attend the new class, let aside with all the seniors. "I am not going to take your shit, Jimin. I thought I made myself clear and you must have got my message loud and clear." The boy spoke slowly, letting the conversation seemingly stay private. 

Jimin scoffed while rolling his eyes and looked to his right at Hoseok who was noting the reactions on the paper. The teacher was writing on the whiteboard with her back towards the class. His gaze anchored on Jungkook after scouting the surrounding like he was out for an all-kill. "You put on a good show Jeon, but I can see you trembling in fear. I know you are reeling inside but you are good in faking, I give you that."

"Afraid of whom? You?" Jungkook kept his gaze on the book while he played with the pen tucked between his fingers that was slipping due to his sweaty hands. "I think your parents are going to visit Mr. Bang's office real soon then." 

Jimin's anger made him numb, he counted till 3 as he inhaled and then counted again as he exhaled to calm his aggravation. "What is it with you and Mr. Bang? I could not help but notice, your parents weren't there this morning. Is it because your daddy sucks a little dick?" Jimin smirked through the left corner of his lips and knew that it would rile up Jungkook for good. 

"I heard if anyone sucks a dick here, it's you." Jungkook rebutted, putting Jimin's patience to end. The older's forehead formed with beads of sweat as he shivered in anger, his hand launched so suddenly on the book where Jungkook's eyes were darted that it crashed on the ground along with a few pens and stationery, also kept on the desk, causing a loud clatter to break through.

The class whole class gasped and tore their heads towards the two enemies, the teacher turned around to look at Jimin and almost sniveling Jungkook. Hosoek worriedly eyed Jimin and wanted to stop him before he lashed out of control and ended up in trouble with his dad again. 

"Is there a problem, Jungkook?" She stepped down from the podium and walked very slowly while putting a cap on her sharpie with which she was drawing molecular structures on the board. 

"N-No miss. This was an accident." Jungkook assured the lady as he crouched down to pick up everything quickly.

The teacher squinted her eyes while gawking at Jimin very subtly as if sending him a message that only he could interpret under the radar and turned around. "We are going to the lab to do the practical of what we learned. Since no one asked any questions, I am safely assuming that you all have got everything. Get your lab coats and meet me in the lab in 5 minutes. No late entries, the marks will be added to your finals, and last but not the least, you are not allowed to change partners."

Jimin suddenly raised his hand. "Can I change my partner?"

Ms. Choi folded her hands over her chest and looked straight at Jimin.

"Jimin-ah!" Hoseok yelled in a whisper. "Calm down." He frowned. 

"What did I just say, Mr. Park?" Ms. Choi asked as Jimin completely ignored the fact that Hosoek was trying to send some signals his way, just like an alien from his spaceship who would send encrypted message to the abandoned and lonely alien.   

"I can't remember what you said for you Ms. Choi. You have to start doing your own work. I am a senior for god's sake." Jimin chided and the entire class was lost into the fits of laughter.
