I'll actually be publishing 2 parts every time I update.
Hongjoong's POV

Ri-
"WILL YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP DAMN IM UP, FUCK!!" I swear one of these days I'm going to shoot that- "STOP FUCKING CURSING IT'S TOO DAMN EARLY IN THE MORNING!!!" My mom yelled even though she knew I didn't and still don't give a fuck. I start to get up off my bed and head to my bathroom door to fetch my towel and wash cloth that's hung up on said door then opening it and rushing inside stripping down and turning on the knob that made water run from the detachable shower head.
After taking a shower...
I'm currently checking my ig feed and as usual it's drier than the Atacama Desert. You see I'm not popular at all, I have only one friend(Chanhee), come off as mean, and don't care for my appearance meaning I dress down a lot, my usual school outfit would be a porous hooded sweatshirt(tank top underneath) and baggy ripped jeans. It's not that I'm self conscious or anything I just don't want to be like Song Mingi, the school's top student. He's the person I hate most(or at least try to), he has a large social media following online and tons of friends in real life, dresses like a rich foreign exchange student, and knows everyone and when I say everyone I mean everyone(he fucking knows my parents, probably more than I do!).
Besides that I'm currently trying to pull my jeans past my butt, you'd think such baggy pants would be easy to put on. After a good 5 minutes of the waist band being right below my peach I finally get my pants up below my belly button and put on my usual white tank top and porous golf wang hoodie.
Arriving at school...
I get out the car and wave a goodbye to my mother and tell her I love her, wanting her to forget our loud interaction this morning, she says it back so I know she isn't mad anymore.
As soon as I walk into the school no one spares a glance at me(except one pair of eyes that I don't notice), thank goodness. I'm basically the school's invisible boy, the complete opposite of Song Mingi. Someone's hand touches my shoulder and I flinch a little and remember it's just Chanhee so my lips start to curl up a bit, but not too noticeable so only Chanhee can see it. As soon as we were in the main area of the school we left, going to the nearest hideout(or basically one of our school's many janitor's closets).
"Ok guess what..." Chanhee said with the biggest smile on his face. I look up at him and I already know what he's about to say so I pull off a smile that rivals his and we both yell at the same time "WE GOT WEEEEEEEDDDD!!" Hoping that we didn't attract anyone's attention from outside the janky closet. Chanhee starts to unzip his backpack and takes out 6 blunts, giving me 3. I forgot to mention this but yeah me and my friend here are basically the school's resident stoners, we don't do it to look cool or anything it actually makes us less popular(barely anyone knows about this though). I make a few smoke rings and start to talk in both Korean and English or Konglish which usually happens when I smoke. By now I'm very immune to the high and have even taken a few tests while being in the state. Chanhee isn't any different, the both of us are just speaking random words while laughing at how fucking dumb we're acting. We're both on our last blunt so we decide to do this love shot type thing where instead of shots it's blunts so you can probably imagine how dumb that looks. The both of us blow smoke into each other's faces making us both cough a bit. After we're done smoking we throw what's left of today's blunts out the window and spray the closet, using a ton of air freshener and perfume.
We wave each other goodbye as we go to our first class of the day, this is usually what happens every school day. Get high, go to class, get bullied, hang out with Chanhee, eat, sleep, and repeat.
As I walk into class I notice that all the seats are filled except the one next to Mingi which is weird and irritating since I don't like him and he's literally the school's poster boy. Since no one will talk to me I have no choice but to sit next to him.
Surprisingly he glances over at me, waving as well "Hey, I'm Mingi your... Hongjoong? Right?" This really shocked me and my face showed it as I also nodded. Then again it's not like it's our first time talking to eachother, I've got to act the part still. "How the fuck do you know my name?"
I feel like this page is long enough, it's like 798? words. Also the conversation will be continued in the next chapter which is Mingi's POV.
[Edit: I only added a few more words and some detail so that the story made more sense and would be understandable once you read the recent chapters.]
