13: Not With You

'Did I fall asleep!?' My eyes widened as I focused on the giant clock that was hanging beside the library entrance doors. I began mentally freaking out when I realized I was about 30 minutes late from my first class.

But I honestly didn't want to go. I just wanted to stay in the school library forever, as it felt comfortable and relaxing to be there.

'Maybe I should just stay for the rest of the first period.' I thought as I laid my head back down, and closed my eyes. I then remembered me doing the same thing when Jungkook was here, sitting right next to me, sleeping.

'Wait.' I shot my head up and began looking around. He wasn't anywhere in my sight, but I did noticed that my backpack wasn't beside my chair anymore.

'Crap.'

I sighed, and sluggishly stood myself up, wishing my life didn't have to be so difficult.

The first place I checked was the bathroom toilets. I have actually found it in there a few times. It wasn't there this time, though. Afterwards, I checked all of the trashcans in the cafeteria. Not there, either.

It took so long to look around, it was already time for my 2nd period, and I didn't have any of my supplies. Even so, I had to go anyways.

I walked out of the cafeteria, and headed down the hallways, only to bump into someone.

"(Y/N)! There you-!" He cut himself off when he realized how loud he was, but he then continued with a question.

"Where were you?" He was now speaking in a quieter tone as he moved a bit closer to me.

"Sorry I accidentally fell asleep in the library."

His face became calmer as he let out a sigh of relief.

"By the way......have you seen my backpack?" I asked him.

He looked off into space for a second, but then came back to reality to answer my question.

"No, I haven't seen it. Why? Did someone mess with you again? I'll make sure they never lay a hand on you and your things again."

I laughed a bit, noticing how cute he is.

"Don't worry. It's not like that. I just lost it somewhere in the school, and I'm looking for it."

"Class is about to start. I'll share my supplies with you until you find your backpack, okay?" I still couldn't believe someone as amazing as him was by my side, finally.

The two of us walked into the classroom, and all of the other students just gave me dirty looks. It was a lot like how out lives were 5 years ago. Nobody liked us, and I never understood why.

When I got over to my desk, the first thing that caught my attention was a grey backpack. And what do you know? It was mine.

I was so relieved to see it, I immediately began unzipping it, and looking through it to make sure nothing was taken. There was a note inside. It read, "Thanks."

I also noticed that my Algebra textbook was missing. I sighed at the thought of me having to spend more money on another textbook.

. . . . .

'Finally. It's Friday.' I thought as me and Jimin both sat down at our desks. We were surrounded by a ring of empty desks. It sounds lonely, but it was nice. It's way better than having a bunch of bullies around you.
