Jimin had grown accustomed to the thrill of secret meetings with Yoongi. The school courtyard, hidden beneath the sprawling branches of an ancient oak tree, had become their haven.
It was where they shared stolen kisses, whispered sweet nothings, and cherished their precious moments away from prying eyes.
As another ordinary day began, Jimin entered the school grounds, his heart racing with anticipation.
He couldn't wait to see Yoongi and steal a few moments of their secret love.
Lost in his thoughts, he failed to notice Eunhee rushing toward him until it was too late.
Their collision was followed by Eunhee's sharp reprimand, her voice piercing through the air like a thunderclap.
"Can't you watch where you're going?" she yelled.
Jimin's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and he quickly stammered out an apology. "I-i am s-sorry, I wasn't watching my way"
Just as he was about to turn away, fear struck his heart as he spotted Wonwoo approaching them.
"Do you really think he changed? Jimin, you can't be too trusting with someone like him. I've got a bad feeling about this."
Yoongi had warned him repeatedly to steer clear of Wonwoo. Panic welled up inside Jimin as he remembered Yoongi's stern instructions.
But to his astonishment, something unexpected happened.
Wonwoo, who had a reputation for being distant and aloof, scolded Eunhee for her harsh treatment of Jimin. He chastised her for shouting at him, his voice firm but surprisingly protective.
"Won't you apologize for shouting like that?" Wonwoo chided Eunhee, his gaze unwavering.
Eunhee, caught off guard by her boyfriend's unexpected reaction, mumbled an apology and shuffled away, her anger tempered by Wonwoo's intervention.
Jimin watched them go, his eyes wide with surprise.
A genuine smile graced Wonwoo's face as he turned to Jimin. "I'm sorry about her," he said, his tone sincere. "She can be a bit impulsive."
Jimin found himself at a loss for words. This wasn't the Wonwoo he once knew. It wasn't the vengeful figure that Yoongi had warned him about.
It left a nagging doubt in Jimin's heart – had he misjudged Wonwoo?
As he contemplated this, he felt a light tap on his shoulder.
Startled, he turned around to find Yoongi standing there, a soft smile on his lips."Good morning," Yoongi greeted him, his voice filled with warmth and affection.
"Good morning," Jimin replied, his worries melting away in the presence of the one person who had always understood him.
The bright smile that had adorned Jimin's face earlier seemed to waver, and there was a glint of unease lurking in his eyes.
"What's wrong, Jimin?" Yoongi asked, his concern evident in his voice as he slowed his pace to match Jimin's.
Jimin's heart skipped a beat. He had hoped to keep this unease hidden, not wanting to burden Yoongi with something he considered a minor issue.
He knew Yoongi had his own share of worries, and he didn't want to add to them.
"It's nothing, really," Jimin replied, trying to sound casual, but he couldn't meet Yoongi's gaze.
Yoongi wasn't convinced, gently placing a hand on Jimin's shoulder to make him turn and face him.
"Jiminie, I can tell something's bothering you. Please, you can talk to me about anything. You know that, right?"
Jimin's heart ached at Yoongi's genuine concern, and for a moment, he considered confiding in him. But he couldn't shake the feeling that the sudden change in Wonwoo's behavior wasn't something significant enough to worry Yoongi about.
"It's just... I think I'm overthinking things," Jimin finally admitted, offering a weak smile.
Yoongi didn't press further, respecting Jimin's decision to keep it to himself for now.
Instead, he pulled Jimin into a comforting embrace, holding him close. "Jimin, you don't have to carry your worries alone. I'm always here for you, no matter how big or small they may seem. Remember that, okay?"
Jimin nodded, grateful for Yoongi's unwavering support. "Thank you, Yoongi hyung."
With a reassuring squeeze, they released each other, and Yoongi gave Jimin's hand a gentle squeeze.
"Alright then, let's get through this day together, and if you ever want to talk, I'm just a text away."
Jimin's smile grew more genuine, and they continued their walk to their respective classes.
Even though he hadn't shared his concern about Wonwoo's behavior with Yoongi, knowing that he had such a caring friend by his side made the unease in his heart feel a little lighter.

Lunch break at the school was Yoongi's favorite part of the day. It was a brief escape from lectures and assignments, a chance to relax and catch up with his friends.
Today, though, his friends had a particular topic in mind, one that made him blush as soon as they brought it up.
As Yoongi took a bite of his sandwich, Hoseok, leaned in with a mischievous grin.
"So, Suga, what's up with you and Jimin?" he asked.
Yoongi, trying to play it cool, replied, "What do you mean, Hobi? We're just hanging out."
Namjoon, sitting across from them, raised an eyebrow. "Hanging out, huh? Did you propose him yet?"
Yoongi choked on his sandwich, surprised by the directness of the question.
He wiped his mouth with a napkin and chuckled nervously.
"Well, yeah, I mean, I asked him to be my boyfriend, and he said yes," he admitted, a hint of pride in his voice.
Jin, who was known for his sharp wit, couldn't resist chiming in.
"Not like that, Suga," he said, rolling his eyes. "Hobi means, did you properly propose him by asking him out on a date?"
Yoongi's cheeks turned a shade redder. He stared down at his food, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Um, well, not yet," he mumbled.
Jin shook his head in disbelief.
"I can't believe it," he exclaimed. "You're head over heels for Jimin, and you haven't even taken him out on a proper date?"
Yoongi shifted uncomfortably in his seat, guilt gnawing at him.
He knew Jin had a point. Jimin deserved more than just casual hangouts; he deserved something special.
Feeling determined, Yoongi looked up at his friends.
"Okay, fine. You're right," he admitted. "I should plan a proper date for Jimin. But I have no idea how to make it special."
His friends exchanged knowing glances and then began brainstorming ideas.
Jin suggested a romantic picnic in the park, Hoseok recommended a surprise movie night under the stars, and Namjoon proposed a visit to an art gallery followed by a cozy dinner.
As they discussed these ideas, Yoongi felt a warmth in his heart.
He realized that he had a support system of friends who cared about his relationship with Jimin and wanted to see it flourish.
With their help, he was determined to plan the perfect date to show Jimin just how much he meant to him.
'In the quiet moments, when the world's asleep, Our love's a secret, it's ours to keep, Your laughter's a symphony, a joyful refrain, In your embrace, all my worries wane.'
