Park Jimin went to the library with a smile on his face. Today, Neptune will return his headphones. He was beyond excited to see Neptune again, specially after she left so quickly the night before. His thoughts were interrupted when the door to the library opened and the sound of laughter was heard. A specific laughter, that made Jimin's smile grow wider. When he looked over to the door, Neptune was there with a guy beside her.

"He has pink hair and he's adorable, now find him." Neptune said, making Jimin blush.

"Um," The guy next to her said, looking around. His eyes locked with Jimin's and they lit up. "Found him!"

Neptune and the guy went over to Jimin's table. Neptune smiled at Jimin and placed the headphones on the table, "Thank you for letting me borrow your headphones!"

"No problem." Jimin said sweetly.

"This is my friend Hoseok!" Neptune said, pointing to the guy next to her.

Hoseok? The guy that made her cupcakes? Jimin asked in his mind.

"He's the one that made me cupcakes!" Neptune exclaimed, taking Jimin by surprise once again.

"Nice to meet you." Jimin forced himself to smile, even though he was upset.

Neptune and Hoseok seemed close. Too close. Jimin didn't like it at all. After shaking Hoseok's hand, Jimin focused on Neptune, who was looking at Hoseok while smiling.

"Okay, well, me and Hoseok have to go. Until later, pink boy!" Neptune said, triggering Jimin even more.

Jimin was boiling, his anger getting the best of him as he stood up and left the library after them. Neptune didn't even know his name. He felt betrayed, he didn't even know why. Jimin deserved this, he was the one who pretended Neptune liked him. She didn't and she never would.

His anger got out of control when he reached his dorm. He threw his text books to the ground and slammed his arms on his desk. Screaming, he threw everything on his desk to the floor, not caring if he broke anything. Neptune was the thing he loved most, but he will never get her. His screams turned into sobs as he dragged his back against the wall until he hit the ground. Jimin hid his face in his knees and cried until his eyes became dry. Tonight, he won't be going to see Neptune for the first time in three months.

Taehyung jogged over the Hoseok and Neptune, calling to them. The two looked towards him and smiled.

"Taehyung!" Neptune called, opening her arms as in to hug him. Taehyung accepted the hug and laughed in her embrace.

"Sorry I'm late, my roommate was crying and he messed up his room. I don't know what happened." Taehyung said, walking towards Hoseok and hugging him.

"Who's your roommate?" Hoseok asked as they walked to Hoseok's car. Hoseok got inside the driver's seat and Taehyung in the passenger's seat. Neptune by default had to seat in the back, but that didn't prevent her from listening to the conversation.

"Park Jimin. He has pink hair, plump lips and cute squishy cheeks." Taehyung answered.

Hoseok thought about it and his eyes lit up in realization. "That sounds like t-"

"Pink boy!" Neptune cut Hoseok off. She giggled and then curiosity took over. "He's your roommate?"

"Yeah, he's always happy though. Whatever happened to him must've been bad." Taehyung said, looking over to Neptune.

"Everyone has bad days. Today was just his."

Neptune went to her spot and sat on the grass, like she always did. She looked around, feeling somewhat weird. She shrugged and looked to the sky, waving to her favorite constellation, once again.

"Soon, I won't see you anymore, Orion." Neptune said with a sigh. Orion was like her best friend, which was silly for some people, but Neptune found comfort in Orion. When she felt sad, happy or even angry, she talked to him. Orion was always there, except when he wasn't. When it was summer, no matter how many times Neptune searched the sky, Orion wasn't there. "At least I'll get to see Hydra in spring and Aquila in summer."

Neptune got up from the grass and looked around once more. As she left, she felt weird somehow. She felt lonely.

Maybe it was because Park Jimin never came.
