The spring had faded its way to sweating and muggy months of summer. The cherry blossom bloomed a little brighter and the pathways were filled with shredded petals. As bright as nature looked as if it was welcoming the summer, someone was also as bright as the sun...

That Taehyung was "happy" would be an understatement. He was beaming from inside with excitement. Because who wouldn't if it's their favorite day of the year?

Yes! It finally was his favorite day, and no - it was not his birthday or any other special occasion. It was his school's volleyball selection tournament!

The special day in which the whole school will witness a very special version of Taehyung. 

One of rare days when everybody could see Kim Taehyung's boring oversized school uniform changed to his volleyball jersey of his own size that fitted him perfectly, which he complimented with sleeves upto his wrist. Not only that... the face usually free of any emotions would be adorned with a slight smile and the head which usually had hanged low would be held high with pride. The only version of Taehyung when he was behaving like an excited kid...

It was as if Kim Taehyung had a twin which showed up in the school to enter the volleyball field and bless everyone's eyes with self esteem, pride, killer skills and devilish excitement. 

Everybody would get to see - The Kim Taehyung - the libero - star in all his glory. 

Before even the sun rised Taehyung was in the court, sitting on the bench with a pair of bouncing legs. He was watching how the Arena was slowly filling with students and teachers. He could feel the competitiveness in his veins, the kind of nervousness only sport could bring. The playground was getting noisier and noisier and he didn't mind. Usually the noises were getting on his nerves, but on days like this it was making him more excited for the game to begin. He wanted to enter the field... and shine.

His eyes scanned through the crowd mindlessly from left to right. When suddenly it got back to the left and got stuck up on someone familiar. All his excitement died down when he noticed the figure in a similar jersey as well. The said one was chatting with his friends and a sleeveless jersey he was wearing was what caught Taehyung's attention.

'He is also playing?!' he mumbled under his breath in disbelief. His tone dripped in an unnamed emotion and his hands involuntarily, tightly curled into fists.

The other seemed to notice him as well and an inseparable curiosity shone in his eyes.

Who else could it be if not Jeon Fucking Jungkook!






Jungkook walked to the volleyball court with his friends. They were chatting among them about the new arcade opened around the street.

He was in his jersey ready to show his new school his skills. His first ever match in a new school. He was nervous... So nervous that he was tossing around his bed all night.

But chatting among his new found friends made it fade a little bit. Especially tips from Himchan who was also a player eased a bit of his tension.

Minhyuk, Daehyun and Serim escorted the two of them to the sporthall. 

'Oh boy... the star player is here....as usual earlier than sun,' Minyuk made a teasing remark, gaining everyone's attention.

Jungkook looked up to the benches only to see someone staring at him as if he stole the last cookies from the packet. Jungkook being amazed would be an understatement. He was stunned to see Taehyung sitting in the benches in school jersey with head held high. The change in Taehyung was quite visible. He seemed more energetic, more lively, being out of his dull school uniform.
