Jimin and Jungkook got ready for dinner. It was mostly routine by now, but Jungkook wished that he stayed in to catch up on schoolwork. He's already behind all the work in his class, especially science. He didn't anticipate the pace at which his classes would give out work.

"Jungkook, you look a little scatterbrained. You ok?" Jimin peeked at his eyes to see that there were still some reddish veins running from the edges.

"Maybe I just had a bad nap, or maybe I just realized how much work I have. I still have some few pages of reading to do for science, and I still need need to do ESL homework for tomorrow." Jungkook replied.

"Figures. You just entered in the middle of the year." Jimin noticed that Jungkook didn't bring a jacket to wear, and was visibly shivering in front of him. Nearing the cafeteria, Jimin decided to comfort him by lending him his school jacket.

"Can we eat dinner quickly or take out? I really have to finish up homework before the Internet turns off."

"Yeah cafeteria probably has some takeout boxes, I'll ask them." Jimin replied.

Jimin and Jungkook finally arrived to the cafeteria. Jimin hurried to the staff kitchen to see if he could get some boxes to take some food back to the dorm. With Jungkook alone, he sat at a lone table close to the ext of the cafeteria, with his head faced down covered in his arms.

Jungkook felt a slight tap on his head and was about to be super annoyed, but upon looking up, it turned out to be Jin and Hoseok. "Oh hey, hyungs." Jungkook softly said.

"Where's Jimin, did you come alone?" Jin said.

"Nah, he's getting takeout boxes for us so we can bring them back to the dorm. Wanna come eat with us in our dorm?" 

"We already ate, but we can join you guys anyways." Hoseok said smiling.

The boys just got back from the cafeteria, with Jin and Hoseok trailing behind. Jimin set the takeout between the middle of the beds and sat next to it, motioning the others to form a circle so they all could eat and talk.

The opening of containers released a wondrous smell around the rom and they began to eat. Jungkook quickly dived into the food because he really needed time to do his work properly.

Jimin took his time, while Jin and Hoseok were on their phones sending each other memes. Jimin was lifting some noodles from the nearest container as he said, "So Jin, turns out you're right, Jungkook is like one of us."

Jungkook stopped slurping his soup momentarily and said, "You guys had a hunch this whole time?!" His cheeks flushed a bright red, but he continued to eat his food fast.

Jin patted his back saying, "It's nothing to be ashamed of, plus you have us now to relate with."

Jimin nudged Jin with his shoulder and said, "Hey! Don't corrupt him, he's clean as a soap." 

Jin held his hands horizontally and backed off, chuckling. "I won't, I won't."

Jungkook got up with a heavy belly as he rushed to his books. He quickly picked up his earphones and quickly focused.

"Welp, he's going to be gone for a few hours, what do you want to do?" Jimin said.

Jin, Hoseok, and Jimin spent their time watching movies on Jimin's laptop, with blankets stacked on top of all of their laps. Jungkook took out his earphones and looked at them. He finally finished and so he decided to jump on the bed and join them. Jimin's bed surprisingly fit them all comfortably. So comfortably to the point of where Jungkook peacefully fell asleep with his mouth open on Jimin's shoulder shortly after joining them.

Jimin didn't think that Jungkook would be so tired after homework but mentally shrugged off the thought. Jin noticed at this point and laughed softly, "Yah, Jimin he reminds me of that one guy you dated who was always tired." 

Jimin tried to not disrupt the shoulder on which Jungkook was sleeping on while he was laughing and said, "Hey, stop it. That was a long time ago." 

"What's your body count anyways Jimin?" Hoseok asked. 

"Hey, I haven't made it all the way with all the people I've dated!" 

"...maybe like 12 though." Jimin whispered. 

They all collectively 'woahed' together as Jimin kept looking onto the screen. He wasn't proud of how much people he's gone through, but it taught him a lot about dating and relationships. He always knew his way around a conversation with a person he was interested in, after all.

"Hey, if you ever need flirting or relationship advice, I'm here." he whispered.

Not realizing how late it was, their dorm door suddenly slid open loudly. A head peeked in which turned out to be Mr. Min, the teacher that was on night duty for today. And coincidentally, the teacher Jimin has had a crush on for about a year.

Jimin looked at him and got into a panicked state, quickly making his cheeks flush a bright red in the process. He violently threw Jungkook off his shoulder which resulted in him landing on the floor with a loud thud. While it may have hurted, he somehow did not wake up at all from it, which made Jimin relieved to a point. 

"You boys do know that it's almost midnight, correct? I have to ask the two people who aren't attending this dorm to leave to their respective dorms right now. And also, please remember that you should only invite 1 guest to your dorm because 4 can cause a ruckus." Mr. Min sternly said.

While Mr. Min's words were commanding, it wasn't as harsh as say Kim Taehyung's or Mr. Kim.

"Sorry Mr. Min." Jimin said quietly with a lowered head.

Jin and Hoseok quickly hopped off the bed as they left, waving goodbyes to Jimin. Jimin stepped off and bowed to Mr. Min.

"You don't have to apologize that much, Jimin." Mr. Min said. He patted his head and started his usual route again.

Jimin blushed but turned around, saying a quick 'ok' as he left. His heart was beating quite fast for the lackluster amount of interaction he had in this encounter, but he eventually made his way to bring Jungkook back to his bed so he didn't have to sleep on the cold wooden floor.
