Insecure - Jikook [Completed]

Chapter 2: A different day

Narrator's POV

Just like every other day Jungkook woke up to his alarm and got ready for school. Like always, he locked his house door and went to school while listening to his music, not aware of the people around him. Listening to music blocked out the outside noise and made him at peace. Just like yesterday, he placed his bag inside his locker and took the books he needed before heading to his homeroom. However, when he opened the door, he froze. Today wasn't like every other day. No. The classroom should be empty like always, but when Jungkook opened the door, he saw a boy with his head on his desk near the front of the classroom. The boy's pink hair cascaded onto the desk and Jungkook knew he was sleeping. He didn't know what to do. Should I stay here or go to the library? Jungkook thought.

After having a battle inside his mind, he decided to stay since he didn't have long until class started anyways.

Quietly, without making a single sound, he sat in his seat and continued sketching like yesterday. As he drew, he tried blocking out the view of the other boy so he didn't feel anxious, which was easy as sketching did distract him, so he was okay. Unconsciously, Jungkook started humming to the song he was listening, completely forgetting about the other presence in the room.

Suddenly, he felt the ground shake a little and immediately stopped humming as he put his sketchbook away. What he didn't know was that the pink haired boy was actually awake and he heard him. His head was now resting on the right side of his face as he peeked at the boy who just sang. A small smile appeared on his face, suddenly intrigued about this boy.

It was time for Jungkook's next class, which was Chemistry and he was full with trepidation. It's not like he didn't like the subject. Oh no. It was because that class was full with his bullies. His whole class bullied him and he couldn't escape it.

As soon as he walked in, his face was met with a scrunched up paper ball. Immediately, he heard the class snicker as he rushed to his desk with embarrassment. This is going to be a long lesson.

After Chemistry, it was break and he gladly ran out before anymore bullying could occur. He let out a deep breath before walking to his literature class. As it was still early, no one was there and Jungkook just sat there trying to calm down his nerves. He always felt like that in Chemistry. Not one lesson did he not feel anxious in that classroom.

Ms Cheong walked in and class started. Just like before, she looked towards Jungkook's direction and gave him a smile which was anything than just a smile. He sensed a feeling of darkness and it creeped him out.

As Jungkook looked at the front, he suddenly made eye contact with the pink haired boy. Jungkook's eyes widened before looking down at his desk. What was that? He looked at the front again, and saw that the boy was staring at him, very intensely. Why is he staring at me like that? Did I do something wrong? Is he going to bully me? Why?

Jungkook's chest started tightening as he realised the boy wasn't looking away. This attention was making his anxiety kick in. He quickly took steady breaths and held his chest to lessen the pain. The pink haired boy was in confusion to what was happening as he observed the boy.

Suddenly, a few moments later, a hand rested on Jungkook's shoulder. He immediately looked. Ms Cheong gave him a smile.

"Are you okay Jungkook?" She asked.

He gulped. He tried distancing himself from her hand as he inched away and nodded. She questioned whether he was lying or not, but gave up before going to the front again. His chest started relaxing and he let out a shaky breath. The pink haired boy witnessed it all and saw fear clearly evident on Jungkook's face which confused him even more.
