Serendipity | Jimin x Reader

Chapter 3

During passing period to fifth, you noticed there was something in Jimin's lent coat. Did he forget it? You shook your (h/c) head, you didn't want to invade his privacy. You continued to walk to your class, when your stomach rumbled. Crap, you thought; your mouth watered at the thought of the snack you could've had. Whatever, it's in a better place now. Your eyes turned a little watery at the thought of the delicious candy bar that could've awaited you, but then the minute bell rung and you realized you were going to be late to fifth period.

You rushed towards the familiar classroom, and sat down in your seat. The teacher smiled at everyone, and said,"Hello class, please take out your homework" just as the late bell rang. You did as asked, and the teacher went around checking that everyone did their work. There were a couple students who didn't do it, but the majority did complete the homework; therefore the teacher wasn't that disappointed. The teacher smiled, and said,"Alright, was there any questions on tonight's homework?".

Some raised their hands, and the teacher smiled warmly and answered their questions with kindness and intellect. That is why your fifth period teacher was your favorite. Your stomach rumbles once more, reminding you of your hunger. Dammit, you wouldn't have lunch until a couple more periods! You sighted, when a light bulb appeared on top of your head. What if what Jimin had in his pockets was food!

You tactfully checked no one was watching, and then you checked the pocket. What was there surprised you.. It was the candy bar from earlier! You gingerly picked it up, and examined it. There was something on the wrapper! The handwriting seemed somewhat familiar, although you couldn't place your finger on where you've seen it before.. Your eyes carefully examined the handwriting, and you managed to decipher,"011 82 10 2517 0964".

Your eyes widened, so this is what Jimin meant when he said,"Don't forget to call me, pretty lady (y/n)!". It was then that the most important question arose from your mind. No, it wasn't the typical,"Why are we alive?". It was,"...Should I eat the candy bar or not?"... F*ck it, food was more important. You carefully opened the candy bar, and extracted the precious candy without damaging the wrapper with surgical precision. (b/f) gave you a weird look, and joked,"What are you? A surgeon?".

You didn't laugh as you were just about done extracting the delicious candy bar. Your friend's eyes widened, were you serious? When the bar was out, you cheerfully munched on it. (b/f)'s eyes were filled with disappointment, what had humanity come to? They sighted, and went to throw out your trash. You hissed like a wild animal, and their hand retracted. What was so frickin important about that wrapper that had you like this?!

After you were done with the bar, you sighted, satisfied. You then carefully folded the (color) wrapper, and tucked it away into one of your backpack's pockets, knowing you wouldn't lose it then. Just to be sure, you discreetly took out your phone, and typed the number into your phone's contact. You smiled happily, and put your phone away before the teacher noticed. Time went on, and with a flourish, lunch arrived.

You quickly went to the locker area, and took out your boxed lunch that you had very carefully prepared last night. You slammed your locker shut, and rushed to the commons; where you already knew your friends were waiting. You made it there on time, and sat down on an empty seat. You opened the lunch, and began to eat. (b/f) arrived a minute later after you, and said,"Hey (y/n), I know we've haven't had time to talk.. But, did you go shopping... WITHOUT ME?!".

Your eyes widened, did they manage to catch wind of your new coat!? You desperately shook your head no, and said,"Uh.. uh no! It's just an old coat that I discovered on the back of my closet today! It came out of the closet fresh, for real!". (b/f)'s eyes narrowed, and said,"Are you sure.. 'Cause I've been your friend since fourth year in primary school, and I've never seen you wear that coat..". Your (e/c) orbs narrowed into slits, and you went into a defensive state, and huffed,"What is this? An interrogation? Stop it, and let me eat!".

Your friend's eyes widened, and they said apologetically,"I'm sorry, you're right.. I don't know what came over me!". Your eyes lit up, and a mischievous smile appeared on your visage,".. Are you on your period?". They huffed, crossing their arms,"No! What makes you think that??". You laughed at them, and took another bite of your delicious salad. Gordon Ramsey better be watching, cuz you coming for his @ss!

Anyways, you continued to eat; meanwhile (b/f) talking about something you didn't about. You went to throw your trash away when done, and sat down once again. (b/f)'s eyes trailed you, which made you feel a bit uncomfortable. They looked like they were holding something back.. You raised an eyebrow, and said,"Um, what is it?". A smile broke into their face, and they said,"Show me your wrist! Show me your wrist!".

You chuckled at their childish behavior, and said,"(b/f), it's only been a couple days! I don't think the name will be complete!". They shook their head, and said,"I don't care! Show me, show me!". You sighted playfully, but rolled up the coat's sleeve. You extended your left arm, and (b/f) snatched it up.

They examined it, but seemed disappointed. No new letter had appeared; your wrist still showed," A K I ". You acted disappointed, and said,"Oh shucks!". Your friend hit you, and said,"This is a serious matter! Don't be joking around! What if because you laughed, the name never appears, or you never meet him!". You ran a/n (s/c) hand through your (h/c) hair, and you said a bit exasperated,"(b/f), don't be so dramatic! Even if I don't meet him, I can contact the SoulMate Co., remember?".

They sighted, and said,"What fun does that make it, using a specialized company to find your soulmate?". SoulMate Co. was a global company that specialized in finding soulmates across the world, and it was supported by many governments. Due to it being backed by the government, it had access to personal records and most important, names. Many had met their soulmate using this reliable company, and now it was regarded as something essential to society. You replied to (b/f)'s comment,"It doesn't have to be fun, ya know. As long as I can meet my supposed love one, I'll be happy". They nodded, and said,"You're correct, I'm sorry. I've just been a complete b*tch today, huh?".

You smiled gratefully, and said,"No, it's fine. But, are you sure you're not on your period?". Your friend's eyes widened, and said,"Oh shush!" while blushing. You laughed at their reaction, and your friend punched you on your arm as retaliation. The bell then decided to ring, therefore you had to abandon your friends for something that you won't even probably remember tomorrow. Oh well..
