A/N: I forgot to mention that my chaps are long asf. Sorry?? And I like using Korean words in the mix. It makes me feel smarter.

JIMIN'S POV

"Shit, I'm late!" I groan, looking at my clock. Throwing off the covers, I dash to the bathroom. I get dressed in about 6 minutes.

"Hyung, you're going to be late!" My younger brother, Jihyun, yells.

"No shit, dingaling!" I yell back. I ruffle my platinum hair a bit as I trot down the stairs, my backpack slung on one shoulder.

"Jimin," my eomma turns from the kitchen," you have 2 more days left of school. Don't end it like this, okay? You can do it." My eomma's encouragement and beautiful smile cause a grin to appear on my face. I nod then slip on my shoes.

"I'm skipping breakfast, eo-"

"Park Jimin, you've been eating less and less. That's not healthy," she frowns.

"Eomma, don't worry. I'll probably eat whatever snacks my friends have. Jin will give me his food, no doubt." She put on a sympathetic smile on and nodded for permission to leave. I blew her a kiss then skidded out the door into my car. I had a ruby red, Toyota, Camry.

I let the engine roar then head off to school. On my way there I take a moment to think. My junior year of high school has been the absolute best school year. I mean I'm one year away from going to college! I'm excited. I already have schools asking me to attend. Also, being 17 has had its perks. I mostly get away with messing with Jihyun. Wow...I just realized that almost every time I get in this car, I reflect on my life. Then again, it could be because my appa recently died from a severe car accident. It wasn't even his fault...

At the thought, I pull into the school parking lot and make a beeline for the entrance. I stop in my tracks when I see some friends." Good morning, Jungkookie~ Morning, Yoongi hyung!" I greet, bowing to both of them.

"Morning," they mutter back, looking like freaking zombies.

"Why are you so late, goody-goody?" Yoongi asks.

"First of all, I'm not a goody-goody. Second...I overslept," I stated, feeling a little embarrassed. He shrugged,

"Unfortunately, I don't have to worry about sleep. I do believe I asked to be a rock in the next life. But no. Now, I'm just a sack of skin..." I raised a brow,

"Sounds like someone is sleep deprived. Anyway, catch you guys in class, later." I waved, walking to my homeroom. "Ah, mianhae, Mr. Bang. I overslept," I apologized to my teacher when I walked in. He took it chill, considering that it was the second to last day of school. It's kind of weird, but I'm known for being late to class. It's like my body is in a different time than everyone else. It's like I'm not even alive. Anyway, we had free time to do whatever, so I just checked my text. I had one from Jin hyung,"Your eomma texted me." I replied,

"I still can't believe you 2 talk to each other like normal people. What did she want?"

"She asked me to ask you if you ate. Have you?"

"Yeah," I lied. I started not eating awhile after my appa died. My cheeks were too chubby anyway. Seokjin stopped texting after my reply. I rested my head on the desk and rested my eyes. The continuous humming of chatter echoes in my ear. My breath relaxes to a slow tempo. Then, my mind drifts itself into a land where nothing logical happens. Where no one gives a damn about liking the same gender. When being sarcastic is fun and easy. But also mythical beings swarm my imagination and feast on my sanity. Every breath, every movement is critical.

"Jimin?" Someone's voice fades into my hearing. My eyes flicker open,

"Hmm? Yes?" When I look up, my eyes focus on blonde hair,"Taehyung?"
