the year of first grade had passed, and yoongi and jeongguk had become inseparable. they were best friends forever. nothing and no one could tear them apart. yoongi was always there to help jeongguk in class and jeongguk was always there when kids would pick on yoongi.
it was the first day of second grade, and the two were put in the same class. they came to school together, jeongguk's mother dropping the two off. the two boys walked hand in hand, not noticing the weird looks from the teachers greeting the students in the morning. jeongguk and yoongi were also cubby buddies.
the two hung their backpacks on the hooks in their cubbies, and set their lunch bags in the space under their backpacks, and headed to class. the two sat by each other, and looked around the classroom. "yooyoo, we're big kids now!!" jeongguk smiled widely, looking at his friend. yoongi nodded, giving jeongguk his gummy smile. "yeah! we're so cool!"
the two boys giggled to each other, but they stopped as a boy with caramel skin sat next to them, his lips forming a rectangle-esk smile. "hi, i'm kim taehyung. nice to meet you two!" yoongi gasped quietly, "kim taehyung!?"
the other boy, taehyung, gasped back, standing up excitedly. "min yoongi!" said boy stood as well, running over to the other boy, the two embracing each other. "i- i thought you moved far away! i thought i would never see you again!"
jeongguk tilted his head, furrowing his eyebrows. "you two are friends?" the two boys pulled away from each other, smiling widely. yoongi nodded at jeongguk, wrapping his hand around taehyung's. "we're both from daegu! we're the daegu boy's!"
jeongguk nodded, he felt a weird tingle in his chest, but he didn't understand it. he was probably just hungry.
