Chapter One

Jia's POV

"Shhh."

"You shhh!"

"She's waking up."

"I told you to shush."

"Ouch!"

I opened my eyes to see my twin sister and older brother yet again sitting at the end of my bed staring at me.

"Good morning Jessica." Joshua said rubbing his head. "How was your sleep?"

"Yah! I said no speaking English when you're under this roof!" My sister slapped his head.

"Can you quit doing that Jasmine!" He yelled at her.

"Don't call me by my English name!" She yelled back. "Its Jimin!"

I giggled as I sat up. "I missed you guys."

It has been a week since I came home from the States. I lived with my mother for the past 3 years but have decided to come back and live with my brother, twin sister and father. My brother lived with us too but decided to come home last year, leaving me alone with my mother and her husband.

"Don't start tearing up on us again Jia, I'm warning you." Jimin said jokingly.

Joshua stood up. "Breakfast is ready Jia, hurry up and get ready. You don't want to be late for your first day." And with that he left the room.

The ride to school was quiet. I stared out the window taking everything in as the rain poured out of the clouds above.

"Are you nervous?" Josh asked.

I nodded.

"Don't be. You will fit right in."

"What if I have an accent when I speak Korean? I'll even have to say some words in English since my Korean has weakened." I said feeling anxious.

"To be honest I don't think you will be the only one. There are a lot of international students here, miss performing arts student." He took a hand off the steering wheel and nudge me jokingly. "It won't be too different from your old school back in the U.S."

In the U.S I went to a private performing arts school but it was small. We only had 10 to 15 students in each class but this new school is a lot bigger. Talented students from all over the world came here. Kids are always getting scouted by company's and promise them a bright future as Kpop stars.

I sighed at that thought. "I kinda wish I went to school with Jimin now."

Josh didn't answer. He indicated right then came to a stop in front of the school gates. He then looked at me and smiled, "normal public school is not going to give you an opportunity to do what you love Jess." He patted my head then reached behind my seat and grabbed my bag. "Want me to walk you in?"

I shook my head no. "I don't want you to be late for class."

"Alright, but if you need anything just call me. My school is only a short drive away so don't hesitate, okay?"

I took my bag from his lap and gave him a nod. "I'll see you after school." I got out of the car and shut the door behind me.

Jimin's POV

I hopped off the bus with Soonyoung, my adorable boyfriend, right behind me. We walked through the school gates and into the busy halls. Almost immediately we were greeted by his two annoying friends Seungkwan and Jihoon.
