Under The Cherry Blossoms | Jeon Jungkook

"Is everyone here? Yukimura? Where's Yukimura?" Mr. Jones paced back and forth with a list in his hand and anxiety on his face.

"Yukimura has the stomach flu!" Someone yelled out and a few people laughed.

"Ugh, why wasn't I informed of this?" Mr. Jones said and rubbed his temples out of stress.

"Mr. Jones don't listen to them! Yukimura is always just a bit late." A girl from our class spoke out and received a few glares from the boys.

"Well then-" Mr. Jones said, but was interrupted by someone bumping into him.

"O-oh hello Mr. Jones, didn't see you there." The shaggy-looking boy named Yukimura said and pushed up his thick-framed glasses after brutally bumping into the teacher.

The class laughed causing Yukimura to frown and his face to turn red. I didn't laugh though and just looked down instead for, I saw myself in him.

"Mi-ne, you okay?" Megumi asked from beside me and smiled.

"Yeah I'm okay, just a bit nervous." I said and pushed my hair back behind my ear.

"You'll be fine, just think of this trip as a new experience." Reo suddenly appeared behind me and patted my shoulder.

"Thanks Reo." I said to him and gave a small smile.

"Who's this?" Megumi questioned and looked at Reo with curiosity.

"Megu, this is Reo. Reo, this is Megu. Get along please!" I said awkwardly and made Megumi and Reo shake hands.

Megumi gave Reo a small smile and Reo scratched his neck shyly.

"All of you board the bus to the airport please!" Mr. Jones yelled and everyone ran inside the bus.

Megumi grabbed Reo, her, and I some great seats in the mid-section of the bus.

I kept looking around with my eyes in the bus for Jungkook, but he was no where to be found. I could feel my stomach quench.

I really wanted to talk to him.

//////////////////////////

We eventually arrived at the airport after half an hour or so. We all stepped out of the bus and went inside the airport.

I kept searching for Jungkook, but I didn't see him anywhere.

I let out a deep sigh.

Suddenly I heard some screams and yells, those sound familiar. I turned around and saw Jungkook and Mako heading towards us together...again.

"Ugh those two got a ride from Mako's dad, how lucky! They didn't need to sit in that stinky bus for so long." Megumi whined and pointed at Jungkook and Mako.

"Mako's dad?" Reo asked.

"Yeah he's a business man or something always traveling and stuff, so he just dropped off those two at the same time while going for his own flight." Megumi explained and looked at the two with jealousy in her eyes.

My eyes went from Megumi to Jungkook, I wish he'd at least glance at me once.

////////////////////////

We boarded the plane after a few hours of waiting. Megumi had brought some card games with her to keep us busy, and so the two of us played them together while Reo watched us with a smile.

Once Jungkook and Mako entered the plane, the whining started.

"Oh my goodness Jungkook, just look at how dirty this plane is! And economy class? You must be joking, I only fly with first-class. I can't survive for 13 hours in such an environment!" Mako's obnoxious complaining could be heard from a distance.

Megumi beside me stifled a laugh as she watched Jungkook suffer with Mako.

"Shut up! Just take a seat and be quiet, you're causing me a migraine." Reo yelled out at Mako.

Mako's face went red with fury and she tried to walk over to Reo to give him a piece of her mind, but Jungkook dragged her down into her seat.

Megumi laughed out loud and gave Reo a high-five, I just laughed along with the two.

13 hours though...? Just thinking about sitting in a tight place like this for so long gives me anxiety.

"Mi-ne." Someone whispered causing me to wake up.

I slowly opened my eyes groggily.

I feel asleep?

I looked around at my surroundings and saw the plane empty, only Megumi and Reo were standing in front of me with tired looks on their faces.

"I fell asleep?" I asked Megumi.

"Yes you did, now let's go or they'll take us back to Tokyo." Megumi said and pulled me up from my seat. That girl is scary strong.

Reo took my bag and started walking towards the plane's exit.

Megumi and I eventually caught up with him and left the plane.

I was expecting to hear a lot of whining and complaints once I stepped out of the plane, but no one seemed to mind me. Everyone was taken aback by all of the snow in Oslo.

"Wow look at that! There's snow back at home, but it's nothing like this!" Megumi screamed and kept jumping like a little kid.

"It does look nice, that's for sure." Reo said and handed me back my bag.

As we started heading to our hotel, I could feel someone's stare burning holes into my back.

I turned around and saw Jungkook staring at me, he looked away once he realized that I noticed him though.

I frowned which caused Jungkook to open his mouth to say something, but Megumi grabbed my arm and dragged me away before I could hear what he had to say.

/////////////////////////

I sighed as I dropped onto my twin bed in the hotel.

"Why'd you do that Megu?" I asked Megumi without even looking at her.

"Do what?" Megumi asked me while brushing her hair.

"Never mind." I said and looked away.

"You sleep a lot, 13 hours? Damn. You even missed the meals, which I have there in my bag by the way. The stewart packed them for you because she didn't want you dying of starvation and the suing the airline." Megumi said and pointed to her backpack.

I chuckled a bit and grabbed the food. I put it into the fridge and went back to my bed.

"Seems like everyone is paired up with someone of them same gender as them, I can't imagine how the person who was paired up with Mako feels like." Megumi laughed and tied her hair up into a ponytail.

"I wonder who Reo's with too..." I giggled a bit and used some mouthwash after brushing my teeth.

"Me too...well anyway, tomorrow is a long day so we need to sleep a lot. Good night Mi-ne!" Megumi said with a smile and jumped under the covers of her bed.

"Good night Megu." I smiled back at her and went under the covers of my own bed. I set up my alarm for tomorrow and switched off the lights.

I wonder, what's gonna happen tomorrow?
