Hana's P. O. V.
++++++++++++++++++++

I was in the train station waiting for my older cousin, Hyerin. How could she be so late? As I was waiting, I saw two attractive guys standing next to me. They looked so familiar, but I couldn't figure out who they were. I waited a little longer and finally, I saw Hyerin running up to me with another guy. 

"Sorry I'm late," Hyerin said, helping me with my bags. 

"It's whatever, let's just go home," I said, "My arms are killing me."

She nodded and I glanced once again at the guy with her. He was also strangely familiar. "Hyerin, who's this?" I asked pointing to the guy. 

"Oh, this is Jimin, my boyfriend," She said with a big smile.

That name was really familiar. Suddenly, I got a text from one of my friends from high school. She was fangirling about BTS being in Busan. I wasn't really a fan of them. I mean I did love their music, but I wasn't a fangirl. That's when I realized the Jimin wasn't just an ordinary guy with that name, but he was actually Jimin from BTS. That meant that those two guys from before were Jin and Namjoon.

 "Did you know they were here?" I pointed at them.

Jimin saw them and quickly went up to them. Hyerin and I followed. "Jin hyung, what brings you guys here?" Jimin asked. 

"Oh, we came here immediately after we heard you got a girlfriend," Jin said patting Jimin's back. 

"How did you even find that out?" 

"We have our ways," Namjoon said.

If my best friend was here, she would most likely die. I smiled just thinking about that. "It's nice to meet you but, I have to take my cousin home," Hyerin said touching my shoulder, "We all should have dinner together later."

All of them smiled and nodded. Hyerin and I waved as we left the train station. Jimin came with us. It was awkward in the car. Hyerin and Jimin were acting like couples do and I was making me sick.

"Would you two stop being so gross?" I said crossing my arms in the back seat. I could see Hyerin blush a little through the rear view mirror. 

"So, what made you want to go to Busan University?" Hyerin asked me, changing the subject. I wasn't really sure why, but the main reason was to get far away from my annoyingly overprotective parents. Busan is also a convenient place to go since my cousins live here. 

"No reason really, I just missed being here in Busan," I said which was only slightly true.

I lived in Busan back when I was a really young kindergartener. Hyerin was in second grade. She had two friends in her class and I had none. No friends at all at the time. I didn't like Suma very much and I was sure Hyerin didn't like her either.

Anyway, my father had got a job opportunity in Seoul. It was paying him more than what he got in Busan, so we moved. Now I was back.

After a long, somewhat quiet, drive, we finally made it to Hyerin and Suma's house. Jimin was dropped off a while back. I was surprised that Hyerin would live with Suma, but that was none of my business. Hyerin helped me with my bags and lead me to my new room. There was a bed, a desk, a dresser, and a small closet. It was a simple, but cute room.  

"It was a good thing we had an extra room all this time," Hyerin said putting my bags down, "Well, get comfortable. If you need anything, just ask."

I nodded and waited until she left. When she was gone, I began to unpack my things. It didn't take long to get all my stuff in the right place. It was time to go to my afternoon classes by the time I was finished. I got dressed into something a little formal and made my way out.

The bus ride to the University was pretty quick. The place was already packed with new coming students. Since this was a school of arts, there were students that had their instruments with them. My first class was the class that I really didn't want to take at all. It was mandatory that I take a songwriting class because of my major in classical music. There were two seats to each table in the classroom and everyone was all partnered up and gladly, I found a free table. After a few minutes, the professor came into the room with a big smile on her face.

"Hello! Welcome to Songwriting 101," She said with enthusiasm.

Before she could continue, a guy came running into the classroom. Now, this guy was really familiar.

"Sorry I'm late," He said. 

The professor patted his shoulder. "It's fine, take a seat."

He nodded and walked to the open seat next to me. The girls in the room were smiling and whispering. When I saw him up close, I realized that I was sitting next to Jungkook.

That was the guy my best friend loved so much out of all the BTS members.

"Did I miss anything?" Jungkook whispered. He leaned a little close to me, causing my heart to jump. It wasn't like I liked him or anything, It just that an attractive guy getting so close is new to me. 

"Actually, class was just starting," I said turning to the front of the room. 

Jungkook nodded. For the rest of class, the professor was giving us an assignment. Our assignment was to write a song with the person sitting next to us. Finally, class was over. Just before I could leave, Jungkook stopped me. 

"You're Hana, right?" He asked.

I was confused. "How do you know my name?" I said putting my notebook in my bag. 

"Hyerin told me about you a while back," Jungkook said, "You two look a little alike."

I nodded. He was right. We do look similar. When we were younger, people would always think we were sisters. I always looked up to Hyerin. She was smart, pretty, hardworking, and always popular with guys. She always shot them down because she was already in love with someone. I, on the other hand, didn't have any special abilities, other than violin. I was an average student and boys were afraid of me. I didn't do anything wrong, I was just a bit too honest. Some called me cold-hearted.

Later that day, Hyerin and I were making dinner. We were cooking a lot which confused me.

"Hyerin, why are we cooking so much?" I asked as I was cutting the vegetables. 

"Oh, were having guests over for dinner," She said with a big smile. This was the first time I've seen Hyerin so happy. Maybe it was because she was finally with the person she loves.

"Actually, I have a question," Hyerin said biting her lip. I made eye contact with her and she stopped cooking. "Ah, never mind."

I sighed. Why didn't she just ask? Now I'm all curious. I nodded and continued what I was doing. It took only a few more minutes to complete dinner.

Hyerin's P. O. V.
++++++++++++++++

Everyone was sitting at the table and eating dinner. Jimin was sitting next to me, Jungkook was across from me sitting next to Hana, and Jin and Namjoon were on each end of the table. I was a bit awkward between Jimin and Jungkook and I'm sure everyone noticed. There wasn't much talking the entire time.      Jin would occasionally tell a funny joke or Namjoon would talk about the books he'd read. After dinner, when everyone was leaving, I saw Jimin talking to Namjoon. They looked pretty serious. Jimin came up to me when they were done talking.

"What's wrong?" I asked. Jimin didn't look too happy.

He sighed. "I have news," He said, "I'll be going back to Seoul tomorrow."
