"Hey, (Y/N)!" Jimin came skipping towards you right after you took a step into the school.

You looked at him with the straw of your juice box still in your mouth. You looked at him with an expecting face, wondering what was it about that he was so happy. Happier than usual.

He came to you and suddenly giggled. "You're so cute." He pinched your cheek while you stared at him in confusion.

You threw away the empty juice box into a trash can. "Thanks?"

"No problem. Done your homework?" He asked and started walking next to you.

"Yes..?"

"Was it a lot?"

"Not really, no."

"Is that bag too heavy for you?"

"No?" You were starting to get weirded out by his too caring personality.

"Let me ca-"

"Nope. I got it." Namjoon appeared into the scene and took your bag from your shoulders to his. "No need to thank me."

You and Jimin both stared at him. You in confusion and Jimin in rage. "Thank you?" You lost count on how many times you said something but questionably.

"I said you didn't have to, cutie." He pinched your right cheek while giving you his charming dimpled-smile.

"Uh," Jimin butted in. "We were in the middle of something."

"Oh yeah?" Namjoon asked sarcastically.

"Uh yeah." Jimin replied with a glare.

Your eyes moved back and forth from the tallest to the shortest. You decided to intervene.

"Is there something wrong?" You asked slowly.

"No." Both of them turned to you with big smiles on their faces.

It was thunderstorm suddenly turned into sunny spring. You were starting to get scared. Why were they acting like this? All of a sudden, too. Was there something that you weren't aware of?

"Okay, then. I should take my bag, my class is here." You tugged your bag from Namjoon's shoulders. Namjoon moved fast.

"Wait, let me walk you to your seat." He insisted.

"No, no." You declined but he kept walking.

"Me too." Jimin joined.

"Guys, seriously, no." You tried to push them away from the door to your class. "It's okay."

"No, we insist."

"No, it's fine. You should go to your own classes."

"We have to make sure you're safe."

"I'll be fine."

"It's our responsibility to keep you protected."

"I'm completely capable of protecting myself, guys. I swear."

"It won't be lo-" You entered and quickly closed the door on their faces and held onto the handle to prevent them to from entering your class.

'I'M FINE.' You mouthed through the glass on the door and gave a wide smile with a thumbs up for extra reassurance. Thankfully, they let you go. Not before waving goodbye. You waved back at them.

Turning away from the door, you sighed tiredly.

After school, you looked around, making sure neither of the two boys that you encounter earlier was in range. When you saw the coast was clear, you made a run for it.

You ran until you reached the exit of your school. You continued the journey to your home by walking.

After a few minutes, you reached home. You opened the front door your keys. You got in and closed the door behind you.

A millisecond later, a knock was heard on the door. You lifted a confused eyebrow.

Who would it be?

You opened the door again, only to be met with Hobi's bright smile.

"Oh? What are you doing here?" You asked the man which he chuckled in response.

"Nothing much. I just want to give you this." He disappeared for a quick moment before coming back with a... huge ass teddy bear. "Isn't it cute!?" He gushed.

Your eyebrows both lifted to the sky in surprise. "Yeah..!" You gently hold the fluffy bear with both of your arms. It was almost as huge as you!

"His name is J-hope and just so you know," Hoseok continued. "I sprayed a whole bottle of my perfume on this so if you ever miss me or need hope, just take a sniff and it'll be all good." He gave thumbs up.

"Okay?" You were still confused on the situation.

"That's all! Take care of J-hope over here and take care of yourself too, okay?" He reached out to pinch your cheeks.

What is it with them abusing my cheeks?

It hurts...

"Byeeee~!" He waved as he walked away from your front door. You closed the door and turned around, holding uhh.. J-hope, you looked at him in curiosity.

He sprayed a whole bottle?

Hesitantly, you brought the head to your nose to take a small sniff.

Huh, it does-

"AWH, MISS ME ALREADY?!"

You accidentally let out a short high-pitched scream at the surprise. Your head snapped to a window near you, seeing Hobi waving crazily with his wide smile still on his face.

"WHAT THE FU-?! Hobi! Go home! You scared me!" You scolded him and he laughed at your reaction.

"If you say so, (Y/N)! Remember, just inhale the smell if you miss this sunshine! Don't worry, you did great just now!" He yelled from outside and started running out of your lawn. You watched his steps with a blush of embarrassment on your cheeks. Finally, he was FOR REAL out of radar.

You shook your head at his behaviour.

I'm tired...

You grabbed the huge teddy bear and swung it over your shoulders, yawning in exhaustion. You walked up the stairs slowly.

As you took step by step to the second floor, you started to think to yourself,

Am I forgetting something?

It felt different.

Something felt different.

But what?

Heavy dropping sounds started to appear once you reached the floor.

You just stood and watched as Yeri grabbed her luggages and hand carries and put them outside her room. All her boxes filled with teddy bears, pouches, and her personal belongings were already outside the room.

Today's the day, huh.
