"That should be enough," I said, placing a few more things into my old cheer duffle bag, pushing it down, and observing the space momentarily. "Wait, that doesn't look right," I said, setting my hand on my hip and looking at the bag, hoping the thing I was missing would magically make an appearance. "Perfume and lotion," Leiya said, sitting on my bed as she scrolled through TikTok. A quiet hum of agreeance slipped from my lips as I made my way to my restroom, grabbing my favorite champagne toast lotion and body mist set along with my black opium perfume and lotion set.

"Where you going anyways?" Leiya asked, looking away from her phone and setting it to her side. "I told you I'm gonna go spend time with Coby for the weekend," I said. I still hadn't told Leiya about Jungkook, considering I didn't know where her loyalties lay with Myra. She said they were just acquainted, but although we had been hanging out a lot since our last conversation, we weren't close enough. Leiya just nodded, watching me move about the room. She had been here since after we finished the last activity of freshman week today, and we had been doing this routine for the remainder of the week. She would either come to my dorm room to hang out, or I would go to her room.

"I wanna meet this Coby," Leiya said, laying back on my grey silk covers. I just chuckled before grabbing my bag. "Unlucky enough for you, I don't think that'll happen anytime soon," I said. She sucked her teeth, proceeding to toss her phone into the air, catching it above her head repeatedly. As I looked around for something to do, the sound of my room door being knocked on caused me and Leiya to turn our attention to it.

"You expecting someone?" I asked Leiya as I headed to the door, I saw her face twist up "Girl why the hell would I invite someone to your room?" She said, sitting up from her position. I shrugged before turning back to the door and unlocking it, opening it to see a familiar frame in front of me. I looked up and my eyes met with Jungkook's before I immediately rushed out of the room, closing the door behind me.

"Boy, what the hell are you doing here?" I asked, he ignored me and continued looking at the door. "Who in there?" He asked. "Nobody, why you here so early?"

"Brianna it's 8:55," He said, looking at me before shoving his phone in my face so I could see the time. "If anything, I'm late. I told you I was coming at 8." I groaned, biting my bottom lip before shaking my head. "Brianna, who in yo' room?" He asked, reaching for the doorknob behind me, making me step in front of it. "Give me like five minutes, and Imma be right out."

"No, who in ther-" Before he could continue prying in my business, I felt the doorknob beneath my hand twist, making me tug on it from the other side. "Brianna I gotta go handle some real quick, what you doin'?" Leiya said on the opposite side of the door, twisting the knob and tugging at the door.

"You hiding a girl from me, Bri?" Jungkook said, looking at me with a shocked expression. "I thought that was a one-time thing." He said, referring to my first girl-on-girl experience in high school. "Boy, shut up," I said. After pushing and pulling with Leiya, I eventually just released the door, because it became embarrassing seeing people walk by and judging.
