-----------------------------------------
-Melody's POV-
After the last lesson - boring maths - I spent a couple of hours with Jimin. We went to the park, as the stroll around the school left us unsatisfied. It was still warm, the gentle breeze shaking the leaves of trees. It's surprising since it was almost winter.
I ding myself smiling, as I breathed in the fresh air.
This park is a really cheerful place, and I have a lot of memories of when I was little here. There are oak trees planted neatly, with pavement pathways and patches of daisies and poppies. It's so colorful, and it's amazing when there's a sunset - The sky goes orange and pink.

Remember Katrina -My old best friend I told you about? When she left, I had no interest in making friends anymore. The number of friends I have are limited. And it's because I like to have one valuable best friend than lots of casual friends. It's better to have a strong friendship with just one person, I think. Another reason why I didn't make any more friends is because they're too different to me. There would not even be one thing I could relate to with anyone.

Until I met Jimin, I was pretty much alone. No, don't feel sorry for me.

As you know, Jimin's from BTS. I have been friends with him for 2 1/2 years now. He came as a transfer student, and had to sit next to me.

--flashback--
A fairly short boy walked in, while my head turned to the side, out of interest. When he spoke, it reminded me of a member of BTS.
Wish he could be here, but that'll never happen, I huffed. I guess he'll be sitting next to me, as the space is empty. Katrina used to be there.
Then he said his name was Jimin. Weird. It's all much too familiar. My curiosity caused my head to lift up and stare at the boy.

And I could not get my eyes off him - no matter how hard I tried. It was him, right in front of me - Park Jimin.
My big knowledge of BTS definitely concluded that it was Jimin. It had to be. That signature eye-smile of his sent chills down my back. He just had eye contact with me. My heart was racing so fast, I thought it would escape from my body at any moment. Did anyone have any idea how much I love my bias from BTS??

I started to fiddle with my fingers under the table, trying to resist the urge to shout out his name. I couldn't help it.
I squealed, my class all turning around and suddenly staring at me.
"WHAT?" I said. One other girl seems to have known him as well, as she was blushing and had her hand over her mouth.
He came over and sat next to me, now realising that I'd blocked out the teacher's voice for the whole 5 minutes.

"Your jimin from BTS! ," I pointed at him, as he came towards me.
"You know BTS? Good," he said, giving me a thumbs up. His broken English made me laugh. So cute. "Of course I know you!" I swatted the air with my hand, "Why is BTS not here?" I said, a little bit disappointed. I wanted to see the other members! But, jimin is my bias so at least he's here...
"I want to become an English teacher when I stop being in BTS. I need to learn early, " he tutted with his finger, raising his eyebrows at me. I was impressed already at his fluency.
"That's awesome! I hope we become good friends," I shook his hands while we smiled at each other.

And that's how I became best friends with the Park Jimin. Simple.

So, as I said I was walking in the park with jimin, on the pavement.
"When do you have to go back to Korea? I bet you really miss it there," I said, looking at the floor. I've been worrying about that lately - I never knew I would become friends with my idol. All I've recently thought about distractions that would mean he had to leave. But I didn't want to lose him, and become forgotten. Tears welled up in my eyes.
"Yah don't cry, I won't leave anytime soon. I do miss Korea but you're more than my best friend," He said, putting his arm around me.

He's one of the most important people in my life, and he's so supportive of me. I helped him with speaking English a lot, and he said he'll give something in return - But I didn't need him to. His existence itself made me a happier person.
He's really improved on his English now, I'm so proud of him. Some girls got jealous but why would he want to be friends with those brats? All they care about is being popular and make up. I'm not like that. He doesn't particularly want to be around them either.

I felt reassured by what he said and wiped my tears. I gave him a hug.
"My best friend's a pufferfish" I chuckled. His cheeks puff up in time - Irony.
"My best friend is small," he laughed. He always has something back to say.
"Heyyy!" I said, as I pinched his cheeks. We both laughed. He's so funny.
"Aishhh that hurts!" Jimin rubbed his cheek, wincing.

I saw some swings, which were not being used. It was at the corner of the park.
I pulled his arm, and pointed towards the swings.
"Let's just go there for a bit! Come on," I exclaimed.
"He he, fine," Jimin smirked at me. I knew he was thinking, what a child I'm being.
You know, sometimes I can't hold back being a kid for a bit. When you think you're old, the truth is, you're not. Youth is so important in life,  I remember trying to grow up at a young age - Thinking I should become more independent. That was when I was 10.
We both ran towards the swings, while I still thought about my regrets. Why hadn't I considered about the future? But they vanished into thin air, as soon as I sat down onto the swing.
