One exam down, four more to go. Jimin attempted to ponder on the positive side. But it just wasn't for him. "I just started yesterday and they are acting like I've been here for the whole year."

Fuck. Jimin would rather die than go through that again. If it wasn't bad enough that he had to practically plead with the professor at the front door to let him despite being a whole ten minutes late, when he finally did get let in, every single head was raised from a desk and set straight ahead at him. That had be at least, two hundred pairs of eyes. On him.

Jimin didn't do well being the centre of attention. He was always more of a corner of the party kind of boy. This applied to normal every day activities too. He would even find himself blushing when the young girl at the supermarket checkout looked up at him a bit too often for his liking.

But nothing could prepare him for tripping over his own feet in front a room full of college students. His books, pencils and even water bottle were sent skidding across the floor not long before his own body collided with the hard wood surface.
Jimin almost wished the ringing in his ears from his pure humiliation was louder, he wished it was deafening. If only it could of blocked out the roar of laughter that spread across the room. Apparently exam conditions were long gone and Jimin's embarrassment was the new main point of focus.

He couldn't bear to look up. Couldn't bring himself to even begin to retrieve his belongings from alongside his limp body. He just wanted to go home and be with Yoongi like he did for the last month.

What felt like hours but was probably only seconds went by before Jimin took notice of the laughter and snickering dying down, as initiated by an incredibly aggravated sounding professor.

He felt his arm being grabbed onto, pulling his body back up to his feet by that same professor. He was hurriedly led to his seat with his belongings being picked up along the way.

Jimin didn't dare to lift his head during the whole two hour time limit.

Another two exams passed quickly. Jimin made sure to put all of his focus into the material. However, he found himself struggling more often than not. His brain seemed to be wiped of all the relevant information he needed and instead decided to torture him by playing an audio loop of the whole hall of students laughing at him over and over again.

Jimin did manage to stay above ground level this time around, so he assumed that was a positive.

When his lunch break came around Jimin was busy weighing his options on whether he should spend the hour laying down in the nurse's office, feigning a headache or hiding out in the bathroom.

He figured the nurse's office would be a better bet. He could maybe even nap away some of his chagrin. He set out on his way to the office but got stopped when someone stood in front of him. "Where are you going Jimin?" His new friend Jungwoo asks.

Jimin forgot he had made a new friend and right now all he wanted to do was go to the nurse's office. "Uhm... I was on my w-way to the nurse's office." Jimin squeaked looking behind Jungwoo. "I have a huge headache." Jimin lied hoping Jungwoo was dumb enough to believe his lie. "Oh I hope you feel better." Jungwoo waved walking back to his group of friends who were staring at Jimin. Jimin began making his way to the nurse'sHe was roughly thrown from his thoughts when a hand wrapped tightly around his wrist and tugged, pulling him backwards against a hard chest. The grip on his wrist was dropped at the exact same time he spun around on his heels, heart still beating in his throat from the sudden shock.

"Johnny!"

Johnny stood, an arm across his chest, cradling folders and textbooks safely and a bright as ever grin paste to his face. "Did I scare you? Sorry! You were just walking so fast, I didn't want to have to yell to get your attention."

"No, no. It's okay. I've been jumpy all day." Jimin managed a chuckle. Johnny had the sort of presence that made you want to smile even if you had been having the worst day imaginable. Johnny was positivity in a human form. Jimin was anxiety in a human form. He supposes that's why they're such good friends. They balance each other out perfectly. "I heard you came over how was that like?" Johnny face dropped, "Yoongi was being a real pain in the ass, he was so jealous for no reason!" Jimin chuckled, "Well that's Yoongi." Jimin nudged his shoulder making a smile form on his face. Then once again, Johnny's smile dropped

"Oh, I heard what, uh, happened, you know... in the first exam? How are you? Are you okay?" Jimin felt his heart sink. "You aren't even in my classes, Johnny. How did you hear about that? Oh god, does everyone know? Are they talking about me?"

A sympathetic yet pitiful smile was sent his way. "I wouldn't say, everyone, no. But plenty of people know, yeah."

Jimin appreciated that Johnny didn't try to sugarcoat anything for him. Johnny was nothing if not honest. But it didn't help the intense wave of panic washing over him in an instant, flooding him with further fears and worries.

"God, Jimin. They're idiots, you know that. They still act as if they're in high school, despite being grown fucking adults. I know me asking you to just ignore their idiocy, won't help, at all. But I think you may have to just face this head on. You are so, so much better than them than they'll ever be. Besides, they've probably found something new to pick fun of already! They're like goldfish, Jimin. Their attention can never stay on one thing for long."

Jimin's mind only blurred at Johnny's words, but whatever he was saying, Jimin knew he couldn't do it. He couldn't move on and forget or whatever else Johnny's super positive and very not Jimin life motto was. He just couldn't.

"Have you eaten?" Johnny's words broke him from his thoughts. "Let's go to the lunch hall together, yeah? I'll stay with you, I promise."

"N-no, Johnny, I can't. Everyone will be there and looking at me, and laughing at me."

Jimin jumped when he found his own arm being linked through Johnny's and a gentle pull causing him to stumble down the hallway, Johnny basically carrying his whole weight. "I'm doing this because I'm a good friend and because I love you, okay?" Jimin wiggled his arm out of Johnny's grip. "I'm sorry Johnny but i'm not hungry, how about tomorrow? Tomorrws fine right." Jimin slowly walked back.

"Thanks!"
