'One year ago today I entered SnoWing Entertainment's trainee program' Jungkook wrote, 'Today, I have been given the news that I'm going to be making my debut!' He stopped and stared at the words, letting them play over in his head.
"No...what am I doing..." he mumbled to himself, "let's try this..."
'Hobi! I did it! You always said I would and I did! I got the news today! I'm going to debut!' As he finished, he hit the send button on his phone, sending the wonderful announcement to his boyfriend Hoseok.
He set down his phone and picked up his glass of water, but just as it reached his lips, his phone buzzed.
'Oh my god! I told you you'd do it! You are so talented and special, they'd have to realize that eventually! Congratulations! I love you! Come home soon though... I miss you ㅜ.ㅜ <3'
Jungkook smiled at the message. He could hear his voice saying all of the words perfectly in his mind.
He hadn't seen his boyfriend in almost three weeks and he really missed him as well. The last time they had said goodbye was the hardest. He was told by his company he was going to be busy for a while and not to plan on going home but he hadn't expected it to be this hard to be away from Hoseok.

The next morning, he went to his normal group singing lessons with a huge grin on his face. He couldn't stop smiling.
"Class," Their teacher, Mr. Kim Jongdae, said, clapping his hands to get everyone's attention, "We have a newbie entering as of today. Treat him well. He shares the same dream as all of you." Jongdae moved to the side, motioning to the new student. "This is Kim Taehyung. His stage name will be 'V.' As always, try to call everyone by their stage names. Now, V, if you would take a seat, we'll begin todays lesson."
V stared at him blankly, unsure of where to go. Jongdae understood without needing to hear him say it.
"How about over there" he said, motioning to the corner of the room, "You can sit next to Jungkook."
V followed his instructions and went into the corner next to the grinning boy.
"Hi, I'm Jungkook." He said, holding out a hand to the new student. "Its nice to meet you."
"Im V. And it's nice to meet you too." He took Jungkook's hand in both of his own, bowing politely, "Please take care of me."
Jungkook smiled as the boy then returned his focus to the class. Normally this was his favorite part of the day and it always flew by too quickly, today though, it seemed to drag on longer than he had expected.
Lately, it had mostly consisted of people preparing songs for the test and performing them. They still weren't finished, but they had a side topic today.
Throughout the lesson, Jungkook couldn't help but steal glances at this "V" guy. He was somehow extremely intriguing. He had slightly tanned skin, not normally a turn on for Jungkook, but somehow, this V pulled it off. He had wavy hair that looked as though it had been professionally styled that morning. Not to mention it was a faded pastel purple that made Jungkook a little jealous that he couldn't have thought of that color first. He was so distracted with sneaking peaks at the new kid that he nearly jumped out of his seat when his name was called.
"Jungkook?" The professor called from the front of the room, "Since you have enough time to stare into space, I guess that means you're ready to perform for your test?" He asked condescendingly, not giving the boy a choice in the matter.
Jungkook winced slightly, "There was something I still wanted to Iron out before I..." He was cut off.
"It's too late now. You seem to be feeling big and bad since the news of your debut, but you still are in my class, so now you're taking my test."
Jungkook sighed in defeat for two reasons. One, he had to test early and hadn't been able to work on the one thing left in his song. And two, he had been hoping to keep the who debut thing under wraps until everything was set. "Alright..." He said, standing from his seat. "Do you want me in front of the class?" He asked. The teacher said no so he took a deep breath and prepared himself where he was.
"You know the drill Jungkook. Tell us your full name, what you'll be singing and who it's by then sing the first thirty seconds."
'I know...' thought Jungkook, slightly annoyed. Not at his teacher, but at the situation.
He breathed in deeply before starting.
"My name is Jeon Jungkook and I will be singing the beginning of 'Born Singer' by Jeon Jungkook."
A hushed whisper fell over the class as they murmured about him writing his own song and what the English title could possibly mean.
He let all his air before taking a catch breath and beginning.
"I'm a born singer
It's just a little belated confession
I swear
The mirage that always seemed so far away is now before my eyes
It's here
I'm a born singer
Perhaps it a little early of a confession
But I'm so happy
I'm good
Woah woah yeah~" He sang, ending in a slight run to make it seem more like an ending than the middle of a song. That was what he had wanted to work on, but in the heat of the moment, he had nailed it.
The class stared in awe for a moment before clapping, telling Jungkook he could sit down. His teacher looked at him, slightly disappointed that he couldn't have made him fail by being thrown off guard and doing it early, but proud all the same knowing he had taught a new big hit singer.
When Jungkook sat down, V nudged his shoulder.
"Oh my god!" He whisper shouted at him, "You're so good! No wonder you're lined up for debut!"
Jungkook smiled sheepishly, whispering a clumsy thank you before going back to staring off into space.
This "V" was so intriguing.
