Jungkook finished three more classes and happily decided it was high time for lunch. He was bored with each following class and all the suspicious looks from students. He didn't like being the center of attention, at least not for that long. Unfortunately, he also knew he had to get used to it. With Jimin as a friend, he couldn't hide in the shadows. The boy was literally a light. And not only because of the bright blond hair.
That's why JK decided not to go to the canteen for lunch, where this whole circus would start again. About him, about who sits where, who has which status, who can sit with whom, who can't, and in how many ways he can offend everyone when he mixes up the tables. Well, he would probably sit with Jimin, who would then calmly explain to him the rules governing this school, but JK was completely unwilling to do so. He wanted some peace, and he wasn't hungry anyway.
So he ended up at the school's patio laying down on the freshly cut grass. He put his hands under his head and let his face be pampered by the rays of the midday sun. It was nice, and it was probably just the moment of peace he needed since the beginning of this tiring day. He even managed to doze off for a while. He was so relaxed.
Suddenly the sun stopped pleasantly warming his face. Something or rather someone cast a shadow over him and Jungkook only hoped it wasn't another cheerleader or a new fan. He'd had enough social interaction for today. Fearfully, he opened his left eye only to see Jimin towering above him.
"You missed lunch," he said, taking place on the ground next to the boy.
"I wasn't really hungry," Jungkook said dismissively.
"Too bad. They had banana milk today."
This remark made Jungkook instantly straighten up and sit down on the grass. He couldn't have missed such an opportunity.
"You must be joking, right?"
"I am not," Jimin responded firmly but smiled quickly afterward. "But I'm also your best friend, remember?"
Jimin threw a small plastic bottle at Jungkook. Only after a while did he realize it was his beloved banana milk. He ran his finger over the colorful label and gave Jimin a wide smile. That was really nice of him. And the fact that he still remembered what JK liked. It was such a small gesture yet so incredibly endearing.
"Thanks."
Jungkook stuck a straw into the milk and took the first sip of his beloved drink. He immediately felt better than before; he loved banana milk that much.
And as he sipped his delicious drink, he finally looked around. Many of the students, just like him, were spread out on the grass, some sitting at tables, some on benches. It was rather quiet, which surprised him a bit as he had expected to hear more conversations, basically more noise around him. A lot of students have just arrived after lunch, like Jimin, to take advantage of the last minutes of the break in the pleasant sun. It wasn't surprising at all; the weather was amazing today.
