You Never Walk Alone

Chapter 50

"Hey, watch out for the... sewer, idiot!" Jin called out as he watched Hosu nearly miss falling into the sewer.

"What? Did anyone see anything?" Hosu played dumb, straightening his uniform.

"It's okay, Hosu, small things like... these are the usual in... big cities." Yoongi spoke, "No one gives a... flying fuck about a random... over-dramatic ass teenager face-planting... into the sewer at ass o'clock in...the morning."

"Yoongi. Tone down the swearing... a bit, kay?" Jin said, Yoongi groaned but nodded nevertheless.

"Ooh! Yoongi hyung got scolded!" Taehyung teased, Yoongi shoved the fourteen-year-old away, this time, Taehyung would've definitely fallen into the sewer if it hadn't been for a forever alert body-guard Kyung-se clutching onto his arm.

"Good save, Se!" Jimin exclaimed, giving the other fourteen-year-old a teasing wink.

Kyung-se just glared at Jimin in response.

"What?" Taehyung spoke in confusion, looking back and forth between the two other fourteen-year-olds, clearly not being oblivious this time.

"Nothing!" Kyung-se replied all too quickly, he internally swore as he noticed the skeptical look in Taehyung's eyes, his reply was too quick.

"Guys! Can y'all focus on getting to school on time?" Hosu interrupted, grumpily walking between Taehyung and Kyung-se.

"Sure, hyung." Kyung-se spoke, almost sprinting ahead.

"What's up with him?" Taehyung asked, Jimin could see the imaginary question marks floating all around his twin.

"Aish, nothing, he's been weird like that since forever." Jimin answered, swinging an arm over his twin's shoulder.

"No, hyung, it's because-" Jungkook was cut off as Kyung-se came running back and placed a hand on the youngest's mouth, preventing him from speaking.

"C'mon, Kook, I saw Kyung-mi standing at the school gate, don't you wanna see her?" Kyung-se asked, steering the boy away from the rest.

"Okay, now that's more weird." Taehyung said, "Is something actually wrong with him?"

"Yeah! Hyung's got a disease!" Kyu-won blurted out of nowhere.

"Disease?" Taehyung questioned.

"Yeah! It's really bad!" Jimin joined in.

"What disease?" The youngest fourteen-year-old asked again.

"That I don't know, he hasn't told us much about it yet." Kyu-won responded, Taehyung's concern grew and he rushed ahead, ready to interrogate his friend.

Namjoon went up and nudged Kyu-won and Jimin, looking at them questioningly.

"Disease? Really?" Namjoon asked.

"Well, at least we saved him somehow." Kyu-won shrugged.

"If everyone's going to develop diseases when it comes to confessing to crushes, then I'm gonna stay disease free throughout my life!" Hoseok declared with a chuckle.

"Stop bragging bro, we're here too." Ki-ho spoke.

"Oh right! My comrades!" Hoseok exclaimed, walking over to the oldest Byun's.

"How depressing must your lives be?" Yoongi asked.

"We're doing amazing, thanks for asking." Hoseok replied.

"Y'alls will be depressing when ya get rejected." Ki-ha retorted.

"Nah, we'd never." Yoongi said.
