I continue to space out, trying to understand what just happened. I look back at Taehyung, and he has just resumed his normal composure from before. Before I can wonder anymore, the bell rings and people begin to head to class. 

"We'll see you next time, Lily. Nice knowing that you can sit with us. It may have been awkward for you, but you'll get used to us, you officially have a seat with us." J-hope says with a cheeky smile. "Well I'm off, see you guys." 

"Yeah, sure." I wave awkwardly.

  "May I walk you to your locker, Lily?" Jimin asked kindly, voice smooth and low. 

"S-sure, I guess. If you want to. But don't you have a class to get to as well?" I asked, a little concerned. 

 "Well, yes. But I believe that my time would be better spent escorting this lovely flower. May I, dear Lily?" 

"Uhm. I - " I  stutter unable to hide my blush. 

"Jimin, leave her be. She doesn't need you to walk her there. " Taehyung jumps in instinctively. "Lily, let's go." 

Taehyung grabs my arm and drags me to my locker, leaving Jimin shocked. 

I am also puzzled by Taehyung's actions. We arrive at the locker, and stops before he leaves to his locker. 

"Jimin is someone who flirts with everyone, don't let it get to you." He stops to look at me and leaves without one more word. 

*Why did he interrupt that moment?*

I shake off the thought and grab my books and walks to my classroom. 

I open the doors and notice that everyone is huddled up closely than usual. I take my normal seat, which was luckily not taken and wait for the class to start.

"Class, today for music, I know that all of you are excited for the music talent show, but before you can think of arranging this, we have a class collaboration to prepare for. And this will be with one other class." The teacher notifies the students. "Can the class please come inside now." 

We all peer over the to the door curious to see who we will collaborate with, for a moment I have hope that I will get people that will want to equally contribute for the assignment. But as soon as I hear most of the girls scream, I know that this assignment has become the "push and pull" situation. This is when the people who "pull" become lazy and put in 1% of the effort in, and the ones who want to get a high grade have to do 99% of the work, instead of 50%.  

The class stands in front all in a spot in the classroom and stand their quietly. It remains silent until my teacher begins to talk once more. 

"Okay, the two classes will collaborate on a song, this can be a cover or an original, and if you're worried about not having time to practise for the talent show, no worries again. Because this also means that you will be part of the talent show anyway." The teacher suggests. 

Most of the students groan in frustration. I just smirk in amusement. 

*Good thing, I wasn't planning to enter in the talent show.* 

The teacher claps to gain the attention from the students and continues to talk. 

"Now, I know that many of you want to pair with the most musically talented, just to that you can avoid the work, but we are stepping things up from last year. We are pairing you all in groups of 4, by a random raffle." The teacher continues to lecture the class. 

The groans only seem to get worse, and I laugh slightly. 

*Yeah! That's what you get fangirls, beggars can't be choosers.*
"Any questions?" The teacher asks while looking at the students.
