Jimin's announcement made everyone's jaws drop in disbelief but it didn't take too long for the shocked expressions to change into smug smiles because they knew this was going to get interesting.
Meanwhile, yoongi who was sitting in a corner, was drowning in embarrassment and guilt due to his reckless drunk act.
"uh oh" said hoseok, eyeing yoongi with the smirk from earlier still plastered on his face. Yoongi rolled his eyes and shrugged it off, not wanting to give away the fact that he was actually internally combusting.
[Ara's P.O.V]
After what felt like forever, the class finally finished. Everyone started packing their things and walking out of the classroom and so did I. I slid my bag over my shoulder and started walking towards the cafeteria. My whole body felt as if it was cramping from sitting in one position for hours, studying things I had no interest in.
As I arrived at the cafeteria I realized it wasn't as crowded as I expected it to be, so I scanned around for an empty table and easily spotted one. I wasn't even able walk two steps when someone came and held my hand. Instantly, I violently shrugged it off. In my defence it's only normal for the human brain to stimulate a reflex action in the state of danger. So my motive in doing so wasn't to come off as a weirdo.
"Woah, Woah, I already told you, today morning was a mistake so you don't have to be that mean plus I was just trying to get to know you" said a familiar voice, clearly startled by my action.
I looked to my right to see Kang-whatever-her-name-is, in other words my seat mate.
"First of all, I'm sorry about that. Second of all, try not to creep up on me the next time" I said, genuinely feeling apologetic as it was pretty obvious I hurt her hand by doing that.
My words made her slightly laugh.
"Well how about this, since our first impressions of each other sucked, let's start over. After all, we'd be stuck next to each other for a while" she said while laughing.
The last thing on my mind was making new friends here. All I wanted to do was get school over with and graduate as soon as possible, but her words made me rethink my decision. Although my past experiences with friends wasn't the best, it would be better to have a friendly relationship with my seat mate. At least in that way, I would feel less of an outsider.
"Okay sure. Hi I'm Kim Ara. I just moved here" I said with a smile while extending my hand for a handshake.
"Hello I'm Kang Haneul and I've been around here for a while" she replied while shaking my hand that was awkwardly hanging in the air.
"And Ara, wanna eat lunch together?"
"Sure" I replied. It's not like I had any plans anyway.
A few minutes into eating the atmosphere suddenly changed. You know like when something bad is about to happen, the room suddenly becomes gloomy and you hear loud caws of crows outside? Yeah, basically that, except the room lit up as the door of the cafeteria opened and instead of the sound of the crows it was the sound of whispering of girls that filled up the room.
I lifted my head up to see what was going on with a piece of lettuce still hanging from the corner of my mouth from the hamburger I was eating. A group of boys entered the room and what caught my eye was blonde hair that was standing out, which I could spot from a mile away.
"Oh sheu sheu" I mumbled with the burger still in my mouth, as I realized who it was. It was him, the legendary asshole who is responsible for my wounds. Although technically I fell by myself.
Meanwhile, Haneul who had no idea what going on or why I looked like I was having a seizure was staring at me in confusion with both her eye brows raised trying to figure out what was wrong with me.
"Uh.. um.. hey? You okay? Did you choke on something" she asked in a worried, yet more confused voice.
"Huh? What? No" I replied, finally snapping back into reality.
She looked back at what I was staring at, a small sigh escaping her lips. She rolled her eyes and looked at me, a sly smirk on her face, "did those boys capture your heart? Is your heart beating erratically in your chest?", she said, emphasizing on her words.
I scoffed at her sarcastic remarks, this time, it was me who rolled my eyes. Little did she know we had history together.
"I don't get why the girls swoon over them. I admit, they definitely look good but not good enough", she said, glancing at the girls with confusion. I looked up at her, nodding my head slowly.
"It's just 7 guys, I don't know what's the big deal. Okay, do you see that tall guy over there with the really broad shoulders?", she said, motioning me to look at the guys. I looked at them, my eyes immediately landing on the guy with the broad shoulders and I nodded my head. "Thats Jin and if you ask me, he is the only guy who has feelings", she said, "well, that is, compared to the others around him", she added. I raised my eyebrows, listening to her go on about the boys, even though I didn't ask her to.
"And that guy with the black hair and built figure.. That's Jungkook. He's basically the guy whose good at everything and makes girls swoon over him whenever he does any sport". There was no doubt about that, the girls were literally gawking, while staring at him.
"Hoseok.. he is kind of a nice guy but I don't know. Appearances are deceiving", she said, shrugging her shoulders. "He's the guy, who's next to the blond dude". I nodded my head. He's the guy, who first approached me that night, even memories from that night sent waves of embarrassment throughout my body.
"And that blond dude, Yoongi", she said. I swallowed the lump in my throat, glancing at Yoongi from the corner of my eye. "He's an ass, and a rich one too", she said, "he doesn't really talk a lot and people don't really know a lot about him. So you could say he's a mysterious guy", she explained, making me nod my head unconsciously.
"Oh look, the guy with the dimples", she said, smacking my hand, which made me kind of annoyed, but I chose to ignore it. "Thats Namjoon. He's a straight A student and the smartest guy around". And his dimples are kind of nice, I thought to myself, immediately regretting my thoughts.
"That guy whose making googly eyes at that girl", she said, pointing at the pair. I pulled her hand down, not wanting others to know that we were talking about them. "That's Jimin", she rolled her eyes, " the play boy", she said, quoting the words with her fingers. I nodded my head slowly.
"And Taehyung..", she started. I looked at the remaining guy with curiosity. All along he was looking at the others with a weird, distant look on his face and now he was staring at a fork, oblivious to whatever was happening around him. Haneul smacked her lips and shook her head, "I really don't know. He's weird", she said and I nodded my head in agreement.
"Well that's an introduction for you", she said, looking at me with a smirk on her face, "still obsessed about the living idea of them?", she asked. I glanced at them shortly, the memories of that night flooding my head.
How on earth did we end up in the same school together?!
