Maybe Even Forever [Vmon/Junghope/Yoonmin]

love at first sight (maybe)

Which was why, upon the arrival of Unknowing and Unsuspecting Transfer Student From Busan Park Jimin, the whole school fell into chaos.

(Not really, but there were some drastic events.)

It happened that morning, when Taehyung was late to class. No one passing him in the hallways batted an eye, really, because he showed up late more often than not, due to the many dog walkers on the streets between his house and school and his need to pet every single one of the animals. He was speed-walking to the second floor, still half in his pajamas, when he turned the corner and ran smack dab into Unknowing and Unsuspecting Transfer Student From Busan Park Jimin, promptly falling onto the floor, bringing Park Jimin with him.

"So sorry," Taehyung blustered, words falling out of his mouth at random as he helped the innocent civilian subject to his flailing limbs to their feet. "I was just trying to get to class because I ran into four dogs on the way here and now I'm late, but really I think it was worth it, because one of them was a German shepherd, and those might be one of my favorite dog breeds."

Park Jimin could only stare, because of a couple things: one, this boy was cute, with tanned skin and pouty lips and dark eyes and wow his jawline; two, this boy had a deep voice, which was expatiating something about dogs? Jimin didn't really know, because it sounded like velvet and liquid gold and it was really hard to focus on what the voice was saying; three, this boy was tall and lanky and wearing an off-white sweater ripped at the collarbone and torn blue jeans and a purple zip-up hoodie and yellow high-top Converse with smiley faces drawn all over them and it was all quite adorably mismatched.

And then he smiled, and Park Jimin was done for.

"Oh my God," Jimin whispered to the student who had been assigned to show him around in place of a greeting. "I just ran into the cutest boy."

Yoongi raised his eyebrows, but didn't look at Jimin or show any other sign of interest.

"I didn't get his name, but he was tall and cute and he had a deep voice and cute clothes and he was really cute." Cute cute cute.

"Point him out to me when you get a chance," Yoongi replied, not sounding like he wanted Jimin to point anyone out. But Jimin simply nodded, his face squishing up in an enthusiastic smile.

As it goes, Jimin didn't see the boy in any of his classes. Unfortunately. But when Yoongi dropped him off in biology with a "Good luck, kid, I'll see you after," he met a Kim Namjoon with deep dimples and deeper thoughts. Jimin drew an innocent firework in the margin of his paper, and Namjoon proceeded to talk about how fireworks were a metaphor, how they burst and then they burn, and then they're out, just like that.

"And that's life."

It was safe to say Jimin was not expecting to have an existential crisis in the middle of his very first class at his new school, but here he was, doing exactly that.

I'm never doodling in front of him again.

He wondered if Namjoon knew the boy he had run into earlier. But he didn't want to ask, fearing a "Do any of us really know anyone? Can we even say we know ourselves?" or something of that nature.

Hey, you couldn't blame him for being cautious.

When Yoongi came to pick Jimin up to show him to the lunchroom, Jimin was already questioning if anything was real or if it was all just inside his head.

"You okay?" he asked, wondering what had happened in biology to have the eyesmile replaced with an eyes-blown-wide look of wonder and confusion.

"Do you believe in solipsism, hyung?" Jimin turned to Yoongi, eyes earnest. Yoongi laughed.
