"Hey are you okay?" Jersey asks, feeling my forehead, my surroundings seeming blurred? not clear? I-I can't compute. "Jungkook..." Hoseok calls out, a look of worry all over his features as he squeezed my wrist.

Ellie.

The only name in my head. I can't believe I've been trying to avoid her for seven months, I know she's been mad and all but I have to do it. I had a choice and I still chose her. Pathetic, right?

"Jungkook I think you need to rest."

"Vampires don't rest."

"You're still human."

"This is far from being humane, Hoseok."

I stared at them, blinking twice as I sat down on the stairs. Belle shrugs, starting to discuss the new formation and plan for their next hunt.

I should pay attention.

Why is she gobbling up her words?

Why can't I understand a thing?

...

Where are the lights?

"Glad you're awake." Alex calmly says as I sit up from bed. I'm not in the dorm? "Am I in the infirmary?"

"Correct."

I close my eyes, god, where's Ellie? "If you're wondering why y-"

"I'm looking for my girlfriend." I immediately objected. I don't want to know the reason why I got here and the story how. I want to see Ellie

..

I stared at the blackboard, squinting my eyes as I tried to process whatever our teacher was babbling about but I couldn't pay attention, Mark is shouting the word neko for the past ten minutes as Bambam laughs every two minutes over nothing.

Taehyung completely making the situation worse as he mentally and loudly panics at his awfully drawn doodles at the back of notebook - calling himself a terrible artist if that is.

"Could you all please shut up?!" I whisper-shouted, Youngjae bursting into fits of laughter as Yugyeom bit both of his lips to hold in. Mark shakes his head, "you're so unlucky."

"Die."

"That sounds rude?" Taehyung pouts.

Rose flips the pages of her notebooks loudly and threw one across the room. How can our teacher not see this?! "God, what a tantrum did you and Youngjae break up?"

"Hey!"

"Shut up, Youngjae."

"Jaebum, you ass."

"I'm human."

"Ha! You're a myth."

"Youngjae don't answer them!" I retort through gritted teeth, widening my eyes as they all burst into laughter and I sigh. Jackson please tell your friends to shut up.

Our teacher erases the writings and the bell rings, staring at the blackboard with such misery. I want to pound their faces, I held back the tears as I glanced at my notebook which is almost bare until a notebook was placed in front of me.

A chair was pulled in front of me and I look up to be disappointed to find

Jackson.

"When will he come to help me?"

"He's absent today, if he wasn't I bet he would be the one in my place." Maybe he's right, maybe Jungkook would do such things if he's around. He isn't always careless, right?

Hopefully.

I pushed the door open, expecting the room to be empty but to my surprise. He was there.

Tears immediately fell off my eyes, rushing towards him and hugging him from behind. Sobbing and soaking his shirt he takes off my arms and faces me, holding up my head with his palms and he smiles.

"How was class?"

I sniff, wiping off a few tears with the back of my hand, "you missed a lot."

"I don't care anymore," he mumbles, letting go of me as he laid down on his bed. Staring at the ceiling we were, only silence circulating the room and I rolled to embrace his form.

How I missed this, how I wanted to hold him this way after months of not. I missed Jungkook, "I'm sorry."

"You don't have to" he shakes his head, combing my hair as he places a kiss on my forehead. "I'm sorry but... I have to leave you."

And with that, I screamed.
