I'm useless. If there was one thing in this world that even the most pathetic person can do, I am sure it would be spoilt by me. I'm horrible at anything and everything. I suck at doing complicated somethings to regular nothings.

But even the most unworthy person is useful as an infamous example. So yes, I'm useless. I'm bloody cracked and blatantly useless.

"Hold my bag," he said. The next moment, you were balancing six backpacks in your hands and your own on your shoulders. The only person's you were not carrying was Kim Taehyung's. He completely refused to hand over his belongings to burden you. "If there's one person in this world whose load she will never have to carry, I would love for it to be me." So were his exact words.

You were glad at this and to make it better he also gave you company. The six boys, excluding Taehyung, fooled along the streets, hoping and laughing away. After all, they didn't have to worry about the heaviness of school books. Only Taehyung stayed behind. What a darling he was. "So, sweetheart," he said, breaking the silence in which the only thing heard could be your groans of frustration. "Don't call me that," you interrupted, barely getting the whole sentence out through gritted teeth. "But why not?"
"Because-" your mind fooled you once again as instead of supplying a proper explanation, it sent you into another flashback. Sadly, one that was very recent.

She looked at you with mock sympathy. "So you're starting a new school looking like that, my dear?" Her voice was like ice, easily freezing the blood in your veins. "Please sister, I look terrible already." You dared to look up at her. That, was a mistake. Malice coloured her eyes as she heartlessly stared down at you. "Oh no, no, baby," she said cornering you, "we can't let you go like that tomorrow. What if someone actually found something pretty in that ugly face of yours? We can't afford to get you friends, can we, sweetheart?"
And with that, she threw punch after punch, slap after slap until she was satisfied you looked hideous enough for you new school day.

"Because what?" Taehyung inquired, pulling you out of your reverie. "Because I hate it," you snapped, though secretly thankful he saved you. "Oh," was all he could say in reply before one of the guys from his group came skipping back to you two. The scene reminded you of how slow you were walking right now and you cursed the extra luggage for it.

You were, in actuality, a quick walker; something you inherited from your dad. But right now, you were slowed down by the extra backpacks. Luckily you weren't lonely as Taehyung decided to match his pace with yours. Due to this, though, whenever his friends wanted to tell him something, they would run back to him and call you names for slowing their friend down.

"Hey Chimchim," Taehyung greeted as the short male had reached them. "Taetae," he said, moon shaped eyes nearly closing as he smiled. You decided that you really liked that smile. "So I just came to say that we all were going to hangout at the bowling alley, wanna join?" "Sure!" chirped the taller of the two eagerly. "Ok then, come on!" Jimin linked his hands with the tan youth, entwining their fingers. But Taehyung was quick to pull away. "Wait, right now?" he asked, concern lacing his voice. "Uh, yeah," Jimin replied, not so cheerful anymore. "I mean, you should have heard the way Yoongi hyung was boasting about his bowling skills. Namjoon hyung really wants a match now." He giggled as he finished, Taehyung joining in too.

They talked a while longer about how the hyungs can be so immature and stupid. You marvelled at the amount of love between all the boys. Sure, they bullied others, made people's lives miserable and were complete jerks -Taehyung excluded, of course. But deep inside, when it came to people close to them, they actually had a heart. You smiled at the thought. Friendship would also be a most beautiful thing.... just like a mother.

"No, sorry Jiminnie, I can't come. I need to keep her company." It was Taehyung and once again he took you by surprise. How sweet can a person be? "Oh," Jimin said, clearly disappointed. "I just wish you could at least walk a little closer to us so you can interact." You felt guilty all of a sudden. You really shouldn't be holding him back. Wow, emotions were flooding you these past few days. I'm growing too soft, you thought as you felt weight lift from your arms. Taehyung took half your load and carried it himself. "Hey!" Jimin exclaimed at this act, as astonished as you, "Kookie will kill you if you do that."

"It's fine. At least I'll die knowing I did something nice for the girl I love," Taehyung joked, his tone soothing and sweet, making you smile despite of yourself. The shorter male rolled his eyes, and when you gazed up into them, all you saw there was hatred. Cruel, bitter, burning hatred.

A/n:- hey guys! Just so you know, I'll make sure to update more frequently from now on and sorry for the wait. By the way, I don't know if you have noticed, the language in the little 'INTRO' thingie at the start of each chapter has become more vulgar.
Ok, let me spill it. It has a reason and will hold a serious significance in the story.

Ok I made this note too long. Bye!! And I hope you enjoyed ~~'
