Hi everyone!! So for this chapter I'm going to explain what happened when Jungkook tried to cheat off of me in a test (we were both still in school at the time) and got caught!

——-

It was during the wintertime, and I always hated having to wake up early in the mornings to go to school. It was definitely unfair that the others got to sleep in while Jungkook and I were waking up at five in the morning just to sit in an empty classroom and listen to our strict tutor, Mrs. Dani, talk for hours on-end.

Because the boys didn't want me waking them up, I had been forced to share my room with Jungkook when we first moved in together. My alarm clock rang loudly, and I turned it off with a groan. After taking a few minutes to stare into space, I hopped off the top bunk of our bunk bed, grabbed my clothes from the dresser, and went into our bathroom to change.

Usually, it takes effort to wake up Jungkook. The boys would spend the longest time shaking him, yelling at him, and even pinching his nipples just to get him to wake up. For me, however, all I had to do was speak, and he would immediately start to stand up. I was never sure if he was afraid of me or not. Either way, I felt respected even though I was the youngest member of BTS.

When I emerged from the bathroom with my hair in its usual bun, Jungkook was still on the lower bunk, curled around his pillow with his eyes shut. With a roll of my eyes, I stood over him and cleared my throat. "Jaykay. Get up. We're going to be late, and then Mrs. Dani is going to spend thirty minutes yelling at us."

As I expected, Jungkook's eyes popped open, and he stared blearily into space. We had eye contact and just stared at each other for a few seconds before Jungkook sighed and swung his legs over the bed. "I'll be out in a minute." He grumbled, standing up and smacking my ass. He always got some weird pleasure in doing that whenever I annoyed him. I left the room to make myself some breakfast.

For the eight of us, our apartment was a great size—not too big, not too small. I made us both smoothies and put them in cups so we could drink them on the way to Mrs. Dani's classroom in the BigHit building while Jungkook was getting dressed. It wouldn't be a long walk, and Jungkook and I would always use that time to make fun of one another or make funny videos on our phones.

The walk to our class was just as I expected. "Nova, you know you talk in your sleep?" Jungkook asked as he jogged backwards in front of me. I fought the urge to roll my eyes, knowing where this was headed.

"Oh no, how terrible." I said in a dry tone, taking a sip of my smoothie and shivering. I should have made tea instead, I didn't take into account the cold weather outside.

With the exception of the sporadic rain that would suddenly appear, I was accustomed to experiencing hot weather year-round while growing up in St. Thomas. But it was already getting cold in Korea in September. The first time I'd ever experienced snow was fun enough, and my family spent the whole time out playing. But as time went on, my dislike of the cold increased. Which is just why I should have used common sense and made tea.

"Yeah, you totally talk in your sleep. And all I heard all night was you moaning Taehyung's name." After a pause, Jungkook nudged my shoulder. "Oh Taehyung, don't stop! It feels sooo good!" He teased in a girly tone, causing my eyes to widen. "You had some good dreams, huh, Nova?"

I punched Jungkook hard in the arm, glad that my dark skin hid my blush. "You're such an a-hole. I'd never say anything like that. Ew." I narrowed my eyes, watching as Jungkook rubbed his arm and mumbled curses under his breath.

"Oh, just admit you have the biggest crush on Taehyung! I see the way you look at him, Novey-woveyyyyy..." Jungkook kept waggling his eyebrows, and it took everything in me not to slap him again. He couldn't be any more wrong. Yes, all of the boys in BTS were undeniably very attractive, but there was only one that always made me shy around him: J-Hope. It was something about his passion for dancing, his perfect personality... It just sucked that age was definitely a limiting factor.

Jungkook took my silence as an answer, sending me a smug smile as he walked beside me. "Wow... my little NoveyWovey is all grown up. Just wait until I tell Tae—"

That shook me out of my thoughts, and I jumped to cover his mouth. "Shut. The. Fuck. Up. Puhlease. I had a terrible night's sleep, Jungkook. I cannot entertain you today." And it was true. I'd spent hours the night before practicing in the dance room with Hobi, and then my stomach started to cramp. I'd forgotten to take my pills that stopped my menstrual cycle, so I'd have to suffer for the next week.

Seeing that I was serious, Jungkook nodded and we walked in silence for the rest of the time.

"Why are you two late." Mrs. Dani questioned as soon as we entered the classroom. Mrs. Dani was a French woman who'd moved to Korea in her early twenties to teach. It was quite obvious she hated her job though. Either that, or she just hated us.

I slid into my desk, sighing as I pulled out my notebook from inside my table. "I'm really sorry ma'm..." Honestly, I hadn't even realized we were late. We must've spent too much time walking.

Today was a test day, which was just another reason why my mood was ruined. As Mrs. Dani carefully handed me and Jungkook our papers, I gritted my teeth as Jungkook scooted closer to me. Even though he would always deny it whenever I caught him, he was constantly looking for ways to cheat off of me.

I quickly lost interest in him and began taking the test, confident that I would correctly answer every question (I had scripted that I do well in school and everything comes naturally to me :P). But then... I overheard Mrs. Dani talking to Jungkook while I was in the middle of my exam.

"JEON. JUNGKOOK."

I turned to look and saw Jungkook with his mouth open and his eyebrows furrowed in concern. "Y-Yes Mrs. Dani?" He asked with his sweetest, most innocent voice.

Mrs. Dani stormed over to him in her heels. "Don't play dumb, Jungkook. I saw you looking at Nova's test answers. I can't believe you would cheat off of your own group members. I'm so disappointed in you. Give me your test." She held her hand out, and Jungkook blinked a few times before handing her it.

It took everything in me not to laugh in shock as Mrs. Dani took the test, pulled out her phone, and started dialing someone. Shit. Jungkook was really in trouble.

Jungkook whipped his head towards me, and I bent my head down and pretended I didn't hear anything, filling out my answers for the test. "I..." I heard Jungkook mumble, and my cheeks ballooned as I choked back laughter. Yes, I did feel sorry for him.. But then again, we all knew he wasn't as innocent as he pretended to be.

"Jungkook. Your test is going to be invalidated. Your overall grade now stands at a very poor C. Bang Si Hyuk will certainly be hearing about this. For the time being, I advise you to use the remaining portion of Nova's test period to do some actual studying. And you better hope you don't make any mistakes the rest of the year because you know you're in trouble if your grade drops below a C." Mrs. Dani sent daggers towards Jungkook, who looked terrified.

"Yes, Mrs. Dani. I'm sorry." He bowed his head a few times before pulling out his textbook and writing eagerly.

My test went very smoothly, and thirty minutes later I turned it in to our teacher. Fortunately, school was dismissed early that day because we had to get ready for a recording session. But as soon as we went home, I told Namjoon all about Jungkook getting caught. Suprisingly enough, Namjoon already knew about it thanks to Bang Si Hyuk, and he spent the longest time lecturing Jungkook.

"You're so mean, Nova." Jimin sat down next to me as I watched RM scold JK.

A small smile slid across my face. "If it helps, I actually did feel bad for a while. But you know if I ever got caught cheating, Jungkook would never let me live it down. I had to do what I had to do."

Jimin just sent me the look he always gives me, and I rolled my eyes. Somehow even when Jungkook screwed up I was always one to blame.
