스물다섯

"you ready hoseok?" i ask as we all walk to school together, having been brought home to grab our clothes last night and then return to sleep at hoseok's house.

"god, no." i could hear the real uneasiness through his laugh as he tried to brush it off.

"it'll be fine, hobi. ok?" i pat his shoulder. i had told jimin last night over a facetime that hoseok wanted to be introduced to taehyung, so, being the nice person jimin is, he said yes. jimin and i were going to have an hour long conversation, if it wasn't for hoseok teasing us for the hickeys we left on each other.

"i hope so." he mumbles.

i didn't know how to hide the hickeys, considering they were literally all over my neck. i decided to just leave them and hope people shut up about it. the only thing that scares me is that people will put the pieces together between jimin and i both being covered in hickeys.

we walked onto the walkway that lead up to the doors, looking at some students sitting with friends at the picnic tables.

"god, someone is gonna figure out jimin and i." i mumble to namjoon and hoseok.

"not if you're a good actor." hoseok says.

"are lying and acting the same thing? because then i'm a great actor." i readjust the straps on my shoulders, they suddenly felt heavier. or maybe, it was the pressure of having to keep my mouth shut about jimin and i, or anything i did over the weekend.

"hey, where's jin, by the way?" namjoon asks. jin was also supposed to start his first day today.

"i don't know, let me text him." i pull out my phone and ask where he is. i quickly get a response.

jin:
bathrooms at the back of the school, please come here

me:
on my way

"fuck, i gotta go." i tell namjoon and hobi, and namjoon grabs my wrist before i can run off to meet jin.

"where are you going? is it jin?"

"yes, but—"

"i'm coming too."

"fine, just wait outside unless he says you can come in, i doubt it."

i drag him to the bathrooms, and leave him in the hallway while i cautiously go in, calling jin's name.

"yoongi..." he was crying.

i rush over to where i heard the voice, sitting in the corner, shaking. "oh my god, jin, what happened?" i drop to my knees and give him a hug.

"i-i don't know! i-i was s-so ready for today! b-but w-when i walked in, i got r-really nervous. i g-grabbed my schedule and ran out!" he moved his quivering hands in a panicked manor.

"hyung, are you sure you still want to do this?" i ask softly, taking his hands into mine. he nods before i'm even able to finish my sentence.

"yes, i've wanted it for so long and i still do, i'm just scared." he takes his hands back and wipes his falling tears.

"scared of what, hyung?"

"i don't know!"

we both hear the door open and look over in that direction, jin freaking out trying to make it look like he wasn't crying. i saw namjoon walk in though, his eyes glued on jin. "oh, god." jin mumbles into his sleeve that had been near his mouth, which had trembling lips.

i get up, about to push namjoon out of the bathroom. "namjoon, i told you to—" he pushed past me though, dropping to his knees and taking jin in his arms oh so carefully, wiping his tears with his thumb. "jin, what happened, baby?" jin just shook his head, refusing to answer.
