*insert annoying alarm here*

"Ugh..."

I shifted in my bed, unable to get up. It was the start of my first year in high school and I was not pleased about it. Rubbing my eyes, I got up groggily and made my bed messily. My phone then started bursting with texts. 

! (group chat name)

Dareum Kwon: OMG GUYS

Naomi Lin: What

Dareum Kwon: DID YOU HEAR THE NEWS

I grabbed my phone and inspected the texts before noticing the time. 

"What the- it's 7:58 already?!"

I quickly changed and brushed my teeth before barging out of my room to grab a quick snack for breakfast and running out of the house. 

As I arrived at the school, I took out the folded schedule in my pocket and unfolded it. My first class wasn't a class, it was my homeroom. I then peeled my eyes off my schedule and lifted my head to notice Dareum and Naomi together. They noticed too and started running over to me.

"Jiwoo! Did you hear about the new handsome boys here?!" Naomi exclaimed while reaching out to hug me. "By the way, I missed you~"

I hugged her back along with Dareum. "New handsome boys, huh..."

Dareum closed her eyes. "Yeah..." she said dreamily, which made me gag.

"Hey. School before relationships or you won't get a good job," I reminded them. 

"But I already started liking this one guy named Yoongi," Naomi fiddled with her fingers, looking at me with a worried expression. 

"Oh my gosh," I sighed, smacking my face with my hand. 

The bell rang to notify us to go to class in 5 minutes. I stuffed the schedule in my pocket and we walked towards our homeroom class, which is coincidentally the same one. Guess we'll be together, I thought. 

When we entered the classroom, there were tons of students huddled over one corner of the room. "OMG! Are they in our homeroom too?!" Dareum and Naomi fangirled, running over to the crowded place. I ignored them knowing that the teacher will come soon so I took a seat near the front of the class so I could see the board. A few minutes later they came back and sat in my table group. Unfortunately, they dragged one of the guys to our table group.

I was about to ask who he was and what he was doing here before the teacher entered the classroom, shushing the class.

"Welcome to the first year of high school, freshman," the teacher said in a monotonous voice. The teacher then started talking about school tours and events and so I turned my attention to my group. The new boy looked at me. 

Goodness.

His facial features, his jawline, everything looked like he was born perfect. I almost choked on my saliva before looking back at the teacher. I already know that this new boy's going to make my life complicated.

"Hey... Jiwoo, right? My name's Kim Seokjin," he said, which made me draw my attention on him again.

I then looked away. I tend to ignore people or just be rude to them if I don't seem to like their presence. Yeah, I know, I'm very judgy and disrespectful but I'd rather not get hurt... again.

"Yah! Did you just ignore me?"

I shot a look at him. "Sorry, but yes, Jiwoo is my name. Now can you please stop distracting me?"

"Dang, Jiwoo, chill, he's new here so why are you acting so rude to him?" Dareum nervously laughed, shooting Naomi signs for help. 

"...yeah, Jiwoo, no need to be so negative, he's just asking if that's your name," Naomi added, not even daring to look at me. 

The bell rang to signal us to go to our first class and I immediately got up and grabbed my backpack. I looked at Seokjin one more time and he looked back at me with a hurtful but angry expression. Sh*t. You f*cked up, Jiwoo.

I quickly left the classroom without looking back. 

A/N: Sorry about this chapter. I know it's boring, but I'll add some more interesting events in the future. For now, please bear with me T_T 

Thank you for reading the first chapter by the way :')
