Lovers in the night ✦ myg & pjm [✔]

3. [crush]

Once I arrive home I unlock the door and walk straight to my bed room. I'm way too tired to do anything right now. The only thing I can do is lay down on my bed and close my eyes.

the next morning...

I get blinded by the light coming from my window. I rub my eyes and yawn while I sit up straight in my bed. My window is right next to my bed so I squint my eyes and look outside. It's already pretty sunny which makes me furrow my brows in confusion.

Suddenly I get reminded of last night. When I start to stress I grab my phone, expecting the worst.

Oh fuck...

I jump out of my bed as fast as I probably ever did. In a few seconds I have an outfit on and I'm downstairs. I sit down on the floor and put on my converse. I open the front door and run towards the bus stop.

While panting loudly I trow myself onto the small bench. After waiting for a bit I hear, "Morning Sumi!" I look up and see the bus in front of me. I stand up and walk in immediately, scan my card, sit down, trow on my headphones and close my eyes.

Sumi... why are you so fucking stupid? I sigh and try to comfort myself but that's impossible. It's not that I'm scared of coming late to class because honestly if I could I would not even come to school, but that's not the best idea.

I just know that Jimin or Mrs. Yang are going to be suspicious. They are definitely going to aks me why I'm late and I don't want to answer that.

My stressing thoughts get cut off when I overhear a conversation, "He posted on his story!"

"Wait, he did? Omg! He's so cute."

"I saw him in the hallway yesterday and he definitely looked at me. If I see him today I'm gonna ask him out."

I open my eyes and lay my headset on my shoulders. I look in front of me and see two girls, who look my age, both looking at their phones while once in a while showing them to one another.

"He didn't post for so long!" The girl on the left sighs exaggeratedly. "I know ugh," The right girl replies.

I try to take a peek at what they're talking about. To my shock I see them both on Jimin's instagram.

He doesn't post often but the pictures he does post are very cute and they seem to think the same. They have liked them all and even commented on most of them.

One of the girls closes instagram and opens her photos app. She shows a random picture of Jimin to the other girl as they giggle loudly.

Since when does Jimin hang out with other people? Why are they so obsessed with him? Does Jimin even know about this? I have so many questions right now.

This girl is insane that she has random pictures of him saved on her phone. It makes me cringe so hard. Jimin is definitely very pretty but he's not the type to attract girls. He's a loner, who only hangs out with me. He is like the last guy I would expect girls to have a crush on, but I guess I'm wrong.

I try to forget whatever I just heard and saw and put my headset back on.

When walking into the classroom I feel all eyes on me. I silently sit down without making eyecontact with anyone, grab my books and start following the lesson like normal. Since I have nothing better to do I always pay a lot of attention in class so it didn't feel like I missed much.

After around 20 minutes the class ends. I put my books in my backpack but stop when the teacher calls my name, "Sumi, can you please stay for a little longer?"

I nod and sit back down in my chair. Jimin and I make eye contact when he walks past me to leave the classroom. I follow him with my eyes and see that he waits for me in the hallway. I turn my head back to Mrs. Yang.

I can see her thinking before she starts talking, "Can you please tell my why you were so late today?"

I couldn't think of a very good excuse since the only thing that came into my mind was, "I just slept trough my alarm. I'm so sorry." I could see Mrs. Yang was not impressed.

"You are always so early, also for no reason. You still need to tell me that too, but what I'm asking you now is to be honest and tell me why you were late today." Her expression looks cold.

"I just really slept trough my alarm. That's the truth," I say trying to look confident. She mumbles something to herself and then stands up from her chair and walks up to me. She squats down and lays her hand on my table. "You know you can tell me absolutely everything? If this is the truth, that is great but I have the feeling there is a bit more to this story."

"There is not. This is what happend and I'm sorry. This will be the last time," I say.

"And the first," She jokes. She walks back to the front of the class and sits back down on her chair. "You may leave now." She says while giving me a fond smile.

I stand up and leave the classroom without saying anything. Once I step into the hallway I come face to face with Jimin. "What did you tell her?" He asks.

"What do you mean?" I ask confused at his demand. "Why were you late today?" He asks again.

"I just forgot to set my alarm," I say, but he doesn't seem to believe me. "Sumi, you can tell me everything, please," he asks as he takes a step towards me.

"I'm fine, Jimin!" I say as I want to walk away but he grabs my wrist and pulls me back. "No, you are not and I know it. I'm fine with that you don't want to tell me but... honestly... I'm worried about you, Sumi."

His eyes make me melt and his words do too but I just don't want to tell him. I know it's not that big of a deal, but once I tell him that I forgot to set my alarm because I collapsed in the middle of the night he will start asking more question and eventually come to my living condition.

I know the way I live isn't like any other teenager. I don't wake up at 8:00 am and walk downstairs to see that my parents already made me breakfast and I don't get a kiss from my parents when I leave for school and I don't talk to my parents about school when I come back home.

I can't.
