After he left, I realized that I had no dorm. How did I forget? Magically, Jin appeared and squealed at me like he met his celeb crush.

"Ms Park! I see that you've discovered your proteni. I'll lead you to the wolf area right away." Jin exclaimed, pointing me towards the black huts by the trees. "You sure look happy. What's happened that caused all your tail wagging?"

I let out a short giggle from all the exhilaration. I mean, a wolf giggle? Jin was surprised by my new personality, maybe this was me all along.

He was taking me all the way to the end, pass the wolf sign and into the area dimly lit with tall torches. Somehow, it felt more comfortable here, more like home. There weren't too many people; a few were reading on their front porches; a few were chatting by the campfire; a few were doing some other stuff. This is just the perfect place for peace and quiet.

"Well, here we are. Your place," We were standing in front of a small cave-like hut. "and by the way, your neighbor's right there." Jin pointed at the attractive boy laughing with his friends.

Our eyes met each other and it almost seemed like we were alone, just the two of us. I wanted to break my gaze but those amber eyes were luring me into a trance. What's his name? What does he like? All these questions were popping up in my mind. A smile formed on his face; it was so bright that I wanted to smile as well. I couldn't deny his attractiveness but I have to deny him. He seemed interested in me, or the wolf, but I can't just leave Jungkook behind like that. What am I thinking? He doesn't even like me.

After staring at each other for quite a while, he waved and looked away. All this time, I forgot that Jin was right next to me and he saw everything. He didn't even say anything!

"So, do you want his name?" Jin tried to resist that windshield laugh by clamping his mouth but the giggles only seemed to get louder.

Since Jungkook won't ever think of me as anything other than a classmate, I'll give this guy a go. If I agree to Jin's question, he's probably going to make fun of me. But if I don't, I won't know his name and I don't have the guts to ask him, or even talk to him in the first place. Wait, I can't talk at all so it doesn't matter.

"You're too slow to answer. His name's Park Jimin."

Morning came by fast, and my mind was still on that captivating boy, Jimin. He's right next door, and I wanted to say hi before I left for class. As much as I dreaded it, I wanted to do it because it'll help start off our relationship. I don't know how it's going to be, or what's going to happen but hopefully things won't end too badly. My legs dragged me away from the bed and I began to get ready. After finishing in the bathroom, I rummaged through the closet, which was already packed with clothes since someone arranged it for me, and chose something to wear. I stepped outside the hut and sped to the neighboring one.

While walking up the steps, I was preparing myself for the greeting but I didn't get enough time to think; he opened the door the moment I was on the porch. I froze on the spot, struggling to speak; the words seemed to be stuck in my throat. Jimin saved the silence and started, "Goodmorning! Wanna go to class together?" he said, his smile spreading from ear to ear. Without waiting for an answer, he grabbed my hand and led me to the stone pathway.

"So, what's your name?" He asked, swinging our arms back and forth.

I couldn't focus on what he was saying, not with my hand in his. It looks like we're a couple and people were staring uncomfortably at us, but he didn't seem to care.

"I'm Park Daeun. You're Jimin, right?" His confidence helped me get my head together so I went along with his swinging. He's friendly so I shouldn't be afraid of anything, plus how am I supposed to become close to him if I act shy all the time?
