"So you like writing too? What do you like writing or reading?" He was astonished when learning that Namjoon, a biology major just so happened to like writing too. Hoseok was slightly intrigued by the underclassman. He's been seeing and hearing about him lately too.

They say he's one of the most intelligent and knowledgeable sophomores in the biology field on campus. To say Hoseok wasn't excited to finally meet him would be a lie, he had heard around from one of his close friends that this boy just so happened to be interested in him.

To be honest, he doesn't really have the time to be dating right now, but he wanted to see if he could at least befriend Namjoon instead.

He smiles himself when he witnesses Namjoon break into a small smile, it shows his deeply imbedded dimples on each side of his cheek and the dusty light pink tint that splayed across his face only made the older boy fall deeper into analyzing every small thing about Namjoon he hadn't seen before.

"T-to be honest, I-I don't think I write what you think I do." Namjoon says awkwardly and brings both his hands to cup his own warm cheeks as he looks down at the ground. Hoseok smiles at that and he doesn't mean to embarrass the younger boy, but he does so unintentionally.

Hoseok asks with genuine curiosity to try and get to know him better, he brings a hand up to his chin and tilts his head a little like a lost puppy, "Do you write erotica?"

As if Namjoon's face wasn't already burning from the fact that he was just standing in the same vicinity as Hoseok, the fact that he was just asked by his crush if he writes about sex makes him burn up even more. At this point, it was getting to be so hot that it would literally be the same if he were next to the actual sun and not Hoseok.

"N-no! I don't write s-stuff like that!" He's quick to correct Hoseok, "I-I write song lyrics and sometimes I like to read some good poetr-Yoongi?" Namjoon says instead and Hoseok's eyebrow shoots up in confusion.

When he trails his eyes over to where the younger boy was looking, he sees this so-called Yoongi running out of the forest in a hurry. "I'm sorry,
Hoseok hyung, it looks like my friend needs me. It was great talking to you." He smiles kindly and bows down before running off to his best friend.

Hoseok wonders if Namjoon even noticed that he didn't even stutter once after realizing that his friend might need him. It showed him that the boy can toughen up when people need his help, a great leadership skill he possesses and Hoseok really finds the admirable or adorable. He wasn't really sure either.

The writer stands in the same place for a moment watching Namjoon comfort his smaller friend, when he was approached by a piss drunk Jin. Who looked sick to his stomach, Hoseok flinches a little when he feels a hand on his shoulder, not in an extremely friendly way, but a strong one as if he were trying to assert his dominance.

"Here's what were not going to do." Hoseok listens to the drunk guy closely.

༄

"I swear he was out there!" Yoongi tries convincing his friend, but Namjoon can't get himself to believe what he's hearing. He could've sworn that Jimin was at the main area of this party the whole time, and whatever Yoongi saw in the forest has to have been a figment of his imagination.

Speaking of which, Jimin was just over across the bonfire in the middle, standing by Taehyung, Jungkook, and Bo-young. Who he happened to have his arm around pretty much the entirety of the party. Yeah, Yoongi was definitely going crazy.

Worried for his utmost wellbeing, Namjoon suggests they go back to their dorm room and Yoongi agrees immediately. They're already walking back to the car and they offer Jungkook a ride since he came with them, but he declined the offer insisting that he'd be okay.

Yoongi couldn't wait to get back to his dorm, fall flat on his bed, and forget all the events that took place today. So basically, he couldn't wait to forget this day even existed in the first place.

༄

Jimin walks into the lecture hall the next morning late and lifeless.

He quietly tries to get into a seat as fast as he could in the back row of the classroom, wincing when the door slams shut behind him. The professor frowns at the disruption, but continues on with his lecture.

As he gets his stuff out of his backpack, Jin who sits on his left side slides him a pain killer and Jimin's thanking him endlessly, at least in his head. He pops the blue pill swiftly into his mouth and his eyes shift to the right side only to see the boy from the night before. He chokes a little and coughs to clear his throat.

He can't help but think that the younger boy next to him looks so adorable when he's fully concentrated on taking the notes from the PowerPoint from today's lesson. 'So this is where he always sits...' Jimin thinks and he looks around the back row, he could get used to sitting back here.

༄

"What happened to you yesterday?" Jin asks and Jimin pretends like nothing happens, but his friend knows better than that, "Come on, I know you're hiding something. Just tell me." He whines and shakes the boy's arm to get him to spill.

It works.

"I just went back to that same part of the forest and saw a door. That's it." He says it like it doesn't really matter at all, but Jin's super excited and Jimin has literally no idea why that was. At least until he was told about it.

"You saw the door in the forest, huh? Did you see the love of your life?"
