Did you wander looking for a dream erased like rainbow

Rainbow
An arch of colors formed in the sky in certain circumstances

"Jungkook!" I looked over to the source of the voice. Searching through the crowd of teenagers I finally found the boy. Jin, I think.

I smiled and slowly made my way to his lunch table where he sat with only one other boy.

Jin smiled genuinely and gestured for me to sit. But it was only a matter of time before he noticed my bruises.

"Jungkook...what-" I hid my head in my hands feeling overwhelmed. He gently grabbed my chin and lifted me to face him. "What happened?" he questioned as a small tear escaped my eye. I shook my head lightly letting more tears fall.

"Please just-"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP IM FINE!" he looked stunned, shocked by my sudden outburst. The other boy at the table looking up with a terrified expression.

I glanced around at the other students who began whispering and laughing as they pointed towards me. "What a freak." I heard someone mumble.

My breathing hitched and Jin had leaned closer to calm me but I didn't give it time to work. I stood up and raced out of the cafeteria.

My body broke down on a bench in the commons.

I sobbed. It wasn't a mood swing this time. But because of one.

I couldn't breathe and tears fell endlessly onto the palms of my hands as I pressed them against my face. Hiccups and cries erupting from my mouth.

I finally didn't care about what they were saying. It wasn't because I was confident enough in my own judgment to block them out but because I was too focused on my shame.

"Jungkook.." I looked through a hole between my fingers to see Jin  walking towards me. He slowly sat next to me and I could smell his cologne. Light but nice.

"Jungk-" he started to say but was stopped as I dug my face into his shoulder. His blue sweatshirt becoming darker from my tears. I felt the boys arms wrap around me pulling me closer to him.

"I-Im sor-sorry for t-this." I cried out. "Don't be." I shook my head looking up at him.

"Why are you doing this?" his face changed in confusion. "Helping me I mean." Jin shrugged before standing up. Reaching his hand out for me I stood and grabbed it.

We walked back towards the cafeteria when of which I wiped away my tears and took in a deep breath. Thankfully everyone had gotten distracted and the earlier conversations returning.

As the two of us reached our seats I sat and let go of his hand pulling it to my lap.

"Hi, im jimin." the small boy in front of me said with a concerned smile. I smiled back at the small boy. "Sorry I scared you. Im jungkook" he nodded and returned to what I now noticed to be a coloring page printed with a puppy wearing a ribbon.

He pulled a pink crayon out of his backpack and began shading in the bow. It matched his soft pink hair and plump lips. The boy had sweater paws from his overly sized baby blue sweater that corresponded with his white ripped jeans and white sneakers. Cute.

"So..first day huh?" Jin asked causing the two of us to burst into to laughter followed by a confused glance from jimin.

"So how was school?" my halmeoni asked from the kitchen.

My attempt to sneak in unnoticed had failed. "It was good. I already know some people." I took off my shoes and adjusted my hood and mask to where my face was almost unrecognizable. "Really? That's great! Oh and I wanted to tell you that im going to an event with my friend tonight okay." I nodded forgetting she couldn't see me and quickly said yes before darting upstairs.

I shut my bedroom door behind me and quickly slung my bag onto the desk next to my bed before walking to the bathroom. Standing in front of the mirror I removed the mask and hood to see my face.

Thankfully not any worse than before. But that didn't mean it was any better either.

"My life is crap. I get away from my father just to get beat up at school. Just peachy!" I sighed heading to sit at my desk pulling out my homework and books.

"Bye Jungkook dinners on the stove!" I heard from downstairs and replied to with an okay and goodbye.

Now it was simply time for me to sit learning math. It was quiet so I turned on some music throwing my phone onto the bed. I tried concentrating but eventually I just gave up and resorted to my calculator and google while singing along loudly.

But my happiness was soon stolen away from me as my music turned to a loud ring.

I groaned picking it up. No caller id. Well nothing bad could happen right? Wrong.

"Annyeonghaseyo?"

"Jungkook.."

"What do you want father?"
