Desire. [Harry Potter x BTS]

#2 Where it all began

This time my mum didn't come to leave us at the train station. Instead me and my sister went ourselves.

She was excited and nervous, this would be her last year at Hogwarts.

"But it's going to be so hard, am I right? I mean, I will have to study more and somehow balance it out with Quidditch. Not to mention being a prefect is stressful enough already. And Jin keeps complaining I don't have enough time for him. I mean, can you blame him? I surely cannot." She said.

"Who's Jin, again?" I asked in confusion.
"My boyfriend. I was talking to you about him all summer!" She looked at me in disbelief.
"Oh, right. Hate to break it to you, but you don't really use his name. You say things like "honey bear", "baby", "pun master". And besides, I've never seen him." I told her as we went inside the train.
"Yes you have, silly. He's on his last year too, in Gryffindor."
"Again, hate to break it to you, but there are plenty of guys on their last year in Gryffindor. Not just Jim."
"Jin, " she corrected me, "At least you've seen his siblings."
"For the third time, hate to-"
"Oh,come on!" She cut me off. "Hoseok is in Hufflepuff! I'm sure you know him."

I did know him, actually. He was always a very radiant kid, and easy to talk to. But we never really got close. The only reason I knew him in the first place was because Peyton has hanging out with his best friend, Tae.

"Yeah, I know him." I said and got ready to end the conversation so I could go find Leyla. "So-"

"Come with me" my sister grabbed my hand and started dragging me across the train. She stopped in front of a full compartment, every single person inside was a boy... a handsome boy.

Jin, came forward to greet my sister by kissing her cheek.
"Hi, I'm Jin, you must be Eve" he said.
"Yeah, that's me." I said and smiled. Wow my sister has good taste.

Another boy stood up to introduce himself to me. "Call me Namjoon" he said and I shook his hand.
The third boy didn't stand up to greet me, instead he smirked. "Call me baby" he said.

Wait a minute, I knew who he was too. He had a reputation for being one of the best Quidditch seekers Hogwarts ever had. And being an excellent student. And he was cute.

But, I had no idea what to say to that. Like, what I wanted to say was "Okay you got it", but at the same time, boy, get over yourself.

"I'm Jimin", I heard another voice pop up behind me, making me turn around.

That boy was.. beautiful. Like, I like to think of myself as a girl with high standards. I don't know what it was, maybe it was his eyes? They were a bit puffy and they resembled those of a puppy. Or maybe it was his hair? Black and pushed back, exposing his forehead. Was it his lips? Thick and plump. Was it the way he was looking at me right now, probably wondering why I'm not speaking?

"Eve." I blurted out. "I'm Eve"
He didn't strike up a conversation, maybe I didn't seem interesting enough to him. He then turned to the boy named Namjoon.
"I'll go find Yoongi, want to come?" He asked.
"I'll find you guys later" he replied.
"Oh, okay. By the way, hey Claire" he smiled broadly, his eyes disappearing under his eyelid.

Oh my god, that's the prettiest smile I've ever seen.
Snap out of it, Eve.

"I'll see you guys later" he announced as he left. I assume I'm part of the 'guys' too, right?

"That was Jimin, my cousin, I think you guys are in the same year.Jungkook here, is my brother, he's a year younger. Namjoon is my best friend,and Yoongi is Jimin's best friend. Claire,are you staying?" He asked my sister, who looked reluctant.

"I don't know, I promised Venus I'll stay with her.. " she said.
"Oh,it's cool, I understand" Jin said, with a smile on. "You can bring her here if you want. Jungkook was just leaving, right?" He asked the younger boy.

"Oh, uh, I guess." He stood up and draped his arm over me. "So your name is Eve.. but can I call you my lov-"
"Get out already!" Namjoon pushed him lightly before he could finish and he got outside laughing.
"He's like that with everyone" Namjoon explained.
"It's okay." I said, smiling, and he smiled back.

I have a dimple too but wow, his dimples are so deep and cute.

"I'll go ask Venus" my sister said. "Eve, are you coming with or do you want to stay here?" She asked me before leaving.

I knew I had to go find Leyla, but those boys looked genuinely nice. Besides, I have to see what kind of guy Jin is, right?

"I'll leave in a few minutes ", I said, having a seat next to Namjoon.

"So, you're in Hufflepuff right?" He asked.
"Yeah" I replied.
"So is Hoseok! You know Hoseok right?" He asked me.
"I do" I replied.

"How come didn't I meet you earlier?" Jin asked me, changing the subject completely as he joined in the conversation.
"I didn't know about your relationship with my sister until summer came around" I told him.
"Oh. Do you think she's embarrassed of me?" He asked, and I believe he's genuinely curious.
"No, on the contrary, she loves talking about you"

Did I make my sister look like a creep?

Probably.

"Oh." Instead of raising his brows, he gave a warm satisfied smile.

And all this time all I could think of was, why didn't that boy named Jimin sit with us.

And just like that, Namjoon brought it up.

"Why didn't Jimin bring Yoongi over?" He asked, and I made sure to listen carefully.

"He's not Claire's cup of tea. Or coffee. She prefers FrappuJINo"
He said and started laughing, his laugh sounded as if someone was wiping a window, to the extent which I actually looked at Namjoon to see if he had started cleaning the windows of the train.

Me and Namjoon looked at him in dead silence, watching his laughter fade and turn into a straight face.

"You're not like your sister,are you?" He asked, a bit disappointed.

I shook my head in response recalling all the times my sister referred to him as 'pun master'.
