Running in Circles (Jikook)

Chapter 70: All the time

Chapter 70: All the time

Hazing season is on, and it's more fun than Jimin thought. The drinking part. It's the same as last year, but Jimin and Taehyung are not the youngest class anymore, so it's time for them to take care of the freshman who just started their college life.

Jimin was added to the group that Taehyung was already in. He got to meet some of Taehyung's friends in his major. As sophomores, they came up with games. Jimin is assigned as medic, and Taehyung is in charge of food. They don't need to deal with entertaining the freshman, but Jimin always needs to be there and make sure every freshman in their group is fine with their well-being.

Jimin knows best that the medic role is important. Mina took care of him when he fainted as a freshman, so Jimin is very serious with his duty. He's not sure why, but when he was asked to take care of people, it felt so nice.

Jungkook joined the hazing camp this year only because of Jimin. The committee invited him to be one of those intimidating juniors that yell at sophomores. Rejected. He doesn't think it makes sense to yell at sophomores in this hazing system. No one should yell at anyone even though it's just a show that they put on to show the freshman the hardship in real life. How does that make any sense at all?

He knows that Jimin is assigned as a medic. Jungkook still sends food and the essential first aid medicine to the room that Jimin's group is in. Jimin mentioned about him living through the same thing as Jimin did, but the younger one didn't mention that he can't send things to Jimin.

Other than that, Jungkook really has been going through a difficult time. Jimin has been wearing extremely tight jeans. Well, it's true that Jimin has lost weight, but that ass still pops for the world to see. The younger one also makes sure to tug his shirt in his pants, and Jungkook witnesses many times how that ass Jimin owns got stares.

That's not all. Jimin also joins their group for drinking sessions in the evening every time, meaning 4 days a week. Saying yes to those young men who offered to buy him drinks. The younger one came back to the apartment tipsy. Jungkook got scolded when Jimin was drunk. The older of the two didn't have to ask where Jimin went. He didn't have a hard time being worried about when Jimin would come back or whether Jimin would pass out or not. Again, Jimin did not mention Jungkook can't secretly follow Jimin to the bars and back.

Tonight is different though. Tonight, Jungkook is at the same bar Jimin's in. It's the last night before the camp, and the junior committee decided that they'd go get drinks together, and Jungkook insisted that they should come to this bar only or he wouldn't join. Therefore, the committee moved from the other bar to this one.

Once Jungkook entered the bar with a group of 11 seniors. Jimin saw him. Their eyes did meet. Jimin knows that Jungkook is here at the same bar, and he switches places with a friend, so he doesn't face Jungkook from another table. Those blank crescent eyes glance at Jungkook once before all Jungkook can see is the back of that slim figure.

"Hey, that group is here." One of the juniors at Jungkook's table speaks up. Someone Jungkook's not close with.

"What group?" Another junior asks.

"The group of angels."

"You call all the group angels." Yugyeom is in this group too. He rolls his eyes.

"No, but this group is angel angel. See for yourself."

"Ah you're actually right. They're angels for real. I was too busy to scan their faces." Yugyeom chuckles.

"See? I'll tell you. That girl who sits in the middle. White cardigan. That's Wonyong. Beside her, on the right, that's Minnie. She joined a music club too. A guy who's sitting on the other side. He's our new faculty cute boy, Seonwoo. And the one sitting ac-"
