A/N: This was inspired by the song #First Love by Bolbbalgan4! I left the video up there just in case anyone wanted to check it out~
It was the first day of first grade. All the little children in the class said goodbye to their parents who drove them to school. After giving your mom a hug, you skipped to the classroom, humming. Suddenly, out of almost nowhere, a voice cried out.
"No, Eomma! I don't want to stay here!"
You turned your head towards the sound, wondering what was going on. Right in front of the classroom door, a boy was holding on tightly to his mother, not letting her go.
"Seokjin-ah, you have to stay in school. I'll take you out for ice cream after I pick you up from school. I promise." The lady smiled and held out a pinkie to her sniffling son, who seemed to have calmed down after hearing the word "ice cream".
"Pinkie promise?" The boy wiped his eyes with his sleeve.
"Promise." Grinning, the lady gave the boy one final embrace before waving goodbye and leaving, her high heels clicking against the squeaky white tiles.
You scrunched your nose up and shrugged, walking into your classroom.
"Welcome, Y/N!" Your teacher, Mrs. Kang, greeted you as soon as you walked in. "Excited for your first day in first grade?"
You nodded eagerly and sat down on the desk with your name written on it. Smoothing out the brand new (favorite color) dress your mother bought you, you let out a sigh and waited patiently for class to start.
The teacher went outside for a second and came back in with the boy you saw crying earlier.
"Guys, we have a new student. He wasn't here with us in kindergarten, so please be kind to him. Would you like to introduce yourself?" The teacher beamed down at the little boy.
Standing straight, the boy opened his mouth. "My name is Kim Seokjin. I used to go to private school, but my mom wanted me to start meeting new people, so she started sending me here. Nice to meet you."
Your eyes landed on the shoes he was wearing. They seemed brand new and expensive. You sheepishly looked down at your old sneakers and sighed. But even to a youngster like you, Seokjin seemed handsome.
"Okay... Seokjin, why don't you go sit next to Y/N?"
You snapped up as soon as you heard your name being called. The teacher was pointing to the empty desk next to yours, and soon, the eye-catching Seokjin was sitting right next to you.

During recess, you spotted Seokjin sitting on the swings all by himself. You carefully skipped towards him, your pigtails swinging. Out of curiosity, you shyly tapped his head.
He frowned and rubbed the spot you hit him. However, he didn't say anything.
Wanting to hear his voice, you continued to poke him.
"Ouch!" Seokjin exclaimed. "Stahp it!"
You finally decided to say something to him. "How come you're not playing with the others?"
He sighed and shrugged. "Not really into running around..."
"Is that why you're so short?" You blurted.
