You Belong With Me | Jeongcheol Fanfic

Chapter 47

As the years slipped by, the once carefree days of their freshman year transformed into the vibrant chaos of senior life. The hallways that had once seemed so daunting were now filled with familiar faces, laughter, and the bittersweet anticipation of what lay ahead.

Jeonghan, Seungcheol, Seungkwan, Hansol, Mingyu, Wonwoo, Jihoon, Soonyoung, Seokmin, Jisoo, Junhui and their ever-expanding friend group had shared countless memories together—school dances, late-night study sessions, and spontaneous adventures that filled their hearts with joy. They had grown together, each facing their own struggles and triumphs, but always finding solace in one another.

As seniors, the weight of impending graduation hung over them like a cloud. It was an exciting time, but it also brought a sense of nostalgia as they reminisced about the past. Jeonghan often found himself lost in thought, reflecting on the journey that had brought them to this moment. He had come a long way since that dark period in his life, and he was grateful for the unwavering support of his friends and especially Seungcheol, who had been by his side through thick and thin.

One afternoon, the group gathered in their favorite spot on campus—a sun-drenched patch of grass under a large oak tree. They sprawled out on picnic blankets, snacks spread out before them, laughter ringing through the air like music.

"Can you believe we're graduating soon?" Seungkwan said, a mix of excitement and disbelief in his voice. "It feels like just yesterday we were freshmen trying to find our way around!"

Mingyu nodded, a smile playing on his lips. "Yeah, and now we're practically pros at this whole school thing. I mean, look at us! We're a bunch of legends."

"So legendary that they might just name the gym after us," Jihoon joked, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

As they reminisced, Jeonghan's gaze drifted to Seungcheol, who was deep in conversation with Wonwoo about their plans for the future. He couldn't help but feel a swell of affection. Seungcheol had not only been his partner but his rock, always encouraging him to strive for his dreams.

"Hey, Cheol," Jeonghan called, sitting up a bit. "What are your plans after graduation?"

Seungcheol turned to him, a thoughtful expression crossing his face. "I'm thinking about studying computer science. Maybe even working on game development. What about you, Jeonghan?"

"I'm considering a major in fashion design." Jeonghan replied, a smile breaking across his face. "I want to inspire others the way music inspired me."

"Of course you would," Seungkwan teased, nudging Jeonghan playfully. "Just don't forget about us little people when you're famous."

Jeonghan laughed, shaking his head. "I could never forget you guys. You're the ones who believed in me."

As they continued to talk about their future plans, Soonyoung suddenly stood up, clapping his hands to grab everyone's attention. "Okay, we need to plan the best graduation party ever! I'm talking balloons, cake, and an epic playlist."

"Don't forget the dance floor!" Seungkwan added enthusiastically. "We need to celebrate our time together properly."

With the planning underway, the energy shifted to one of excitement. They brainstormed ideas, sharing laughter and light-hearted banter as they envisioned the celebration that would mark the end of their high school journey.

As the sun began to set, painting the sky in hues of pink and orange, Jeonghan felt a sense of peace settle over him. This was his family, his support system, and no matter where life took them after graduation, he knew they would always find their way back to each other.
