Jungkook's POV
The next day
"Jungkoooook, guess what day it is?" I felt Y/N's pencil slowly crawl to my ear and I turn around smirking. She had hair in a ponytail, showing her clean face.
"What is it?" I ask, pretending to dumbfounded and she hits me with her pencil.
"For someone needing help, you sure forget so." I shrug like Yoongi always does and she hits me again. For a girl, she sure is aggressive. Speaking of Yoongi, he arrives at our lunch table, the first after Y/N and I. He sits down and gives us a weird look. Y/N nods at him, taking some of his rice.
"I know you're tutoring me today, I'm messing with you, that's all." She smiles with a mouth full of rice and watches as the rest of the group sits at the table. Jin and Namjoon together as always, then Jimin and Hoseok who were dancing their way over.
"Where's Taehyung? I didn't see him in homeroom today," Y/N says, eating some of her own rice.
I frowned thinking about the conversation I had with Taehyung.
He likes her and she notices when he is gone.
"He said he was sick or something," Jimin replies, looking through a thick packet.
"Is that the play?" She asks, indicating the paper.
"Yeah, I auditioning for the lead," he grins.
"Go, Chim Chim!" She says high-fiving him.
"Jungkook, you should audition too, you've got the looks for it," She nudges me and winks.
I nudge her back and say, "Only if you do it. We can beat out Jimin for the lead"
Jimin snorts, "Yeah right, Hoseok and Namjoon have a better chance than you two." We look over at the two who were currently trying to beatbox.
Y/N rolls her eyes playfully, "Yeah right, nothing can beat the Golden Maknae and his chill sidekick!" She puffs out her chest and I copy. The group ends up laughing and Hoseok says,
"I vote for team Maknae," giving us a high-five. Y/N gives me a smirk like she was saying "Told you so". She gave a cheeky smile and then ate another scoop of rice.
Suddenly, the principal comes to our table.
"Jungkook, we have some visitors for you. Why don't you bring your lunch with you and follow me." Y/N nudges me again, and mouths "Good luck"
*****************
I sit down in the conference room and wait for Principal Yoon to bring back the people he promised me.
I finish my food in silence until I receive a text from Y/N
Y/N: Are you expelled yet XD
I smirk and take another bite of food.
JK: Wouldn't you like that...
Y/N: Of course then I wouldn't have to tutor you and we could actually hang out.
Does she want to hang out with me?
Jk: Let's do it after school then, after the tutoring session.
"Son put the phone away during school hours." Principal Yoon suddenly says. Behind him, there were two tall men. One of them I recognized almost immediately
"Dad? What are doing here?"
He gave me a small wave and sat down in the chair across from me. He smooths down his dress shirt and says,
"We have to discuss a few things," He nods to the man who sits next to him. The man was quite lanky, with a straight face, and a navy suit.
"This is Park Ji Wan, you might remember him." I squint to remember the name and then he speaks up
"I'm Park Y/N's brother. Now you're probably wondering, why are you here in this conference room, yeah?" He thicker American accent than Y/N, so it was strange hearing him speak Korean. He waits with a blank face as if he was waiting for me to answer.
"Yeah, sure," I say, glancing at my father. He seemed just as serious as Y/N's brother, but still, snuck in a smile to reassure me.
"Well, it has to do with Y/N. I know on the first day Y/N arrived, you thought, 'Woah is this real, is she really here'? Don't deny it, I remember you Jungkook when you were younger and all you would do is follow my little sister,"
I look down and felt my face heat in embarrassment. Was I really that clingy?
I look him in the eyes, worried if he was offended. Then something in me gave me a surge of confidence. I am the Golden Maknae for crying out loud!
"You got to watch out for your friends even at four," I smirk and he remains blank-faced.
"Anyways," He sighs, "My father and I made sure to get Y/N into this school because of one reason,"
"What is that reason?" I ask, Principal Yoon comes back in with some tea and sets down in front of us. Ji Wan takes a large sip, sighing afterward.
"You, Jungkook," Dad says as he takes a sip of his own tea.
Me? I think that is a bit of cliche.
"Yes, you Jungkook," Ji Wan said sitting awkwardly straight, "After Y/N had some troubles back home in America, she went into a great depression, so she applied to this school to get away from all of that. After some research, we found that you went to the same school and my father realized that maybe bringing back something positive in her life, such as a childhood friend, will make her happy."
She's depressed? She sure is good at hiding it.
"After Y/N's father called me, I knew I had to do something about it," My father continues, "I vouched for the Parks and got Y/N into this school. While you were away at summer camp, I talked to Namjoon and Principal Yoon to see if we could get your schedules as similar as possible."
That explains the morning classes and lunch.
"So, where do I come in?" I ask
"You must watch over her, Jungkook. Make her happy. When she lived in America, she was at the lowest point in her life, we didn't know if she would ever recover," Ji Wan choked on his words.
"As she finishes high school, we don't know what she plans to do, but whatever it is, we want you there to support her every step of the way," Dad says.
"What you want me to do?" I ask, shifting my focus from Dad to Ji Wan.
"Show what it is like to be loved."
