Do to Live, Do to Hurt

Jungkook's POV

I open the door to my class and walked to my desk, trying to ignore all the stares I was getting.

"Hey, Jimin" He whispered

"Why're you late today?" Jimin questioned in a soft tone making sure the teacher wasn't to hear him.

"I ran into.. 'that girl'." I explained.

"It's alright. Sir has already scolded me. I'm getting an afternoon community service."

As I sat beside Jimin, I took out my book and pencil case, ready to begin another boring lesson.

I scanned around the classroom, and as expected, Hoseok wasn't here.

It's was almost around lunch time when my teacher called out my name to come meet them in front of his desk.

I stood up from my seat and walked over to the front of the classroom.

I had a bad feeling in my gut because I think I knew why he was wanting to speak to me. Sir look irritated as he crossed his arms as he gave me an intimidating stare.

"What do I tell you, and everyone everyday when my class is over?" The teacher loudly questioned as he didn't care if he was getting stares from his students. As hard as the students tried, they always felt bad for the kids that come in late even if it wasn't their fault.

I answered, "To not come late to your class... or else."

"Exactly! And this isn't even your first time. It's your third, and we all know what that means." He slammed his desk with the palms of his big hands.

"Look, Sir, if you're gonna give me a community service (in my country, a community service is basically a punishment for students when they have done something real serious, where as you stay back for an hour after school cleaning a certain classroom) after school, I really can't. I've got basketball practice and I really need to attend. Also, Sooyoung was late as well. Why don't you give her lunch detention." I tried to explain but it didn't look like he was taking my excuses.

"I do not care for your basketball game. Ms Min Sooyoung shouldn't be excused with a lunch detention. She had a good reason as to why she was late, unlike you. So, you, and your other late buddies, are going to get a community service and that's that."

"And what is her reasonable excuse for being late? Hm?"

"That does not concern you, Mr Jeon. Now, go take your seat or.. would you like me to double your community service?"

"No. But, Sir-"

"No 'but's. Now get back to your seat." He cut me off now annoyed, as he shooed me away, his hand motioning up and down.

I walked back to my seat, pretending to be frustrated.

"Well. At least we can clean the library together?" Jimin says.

"I'm actually fine with this community service. Now I have an excuse as to why I can't go to Sooyoung's party."

"It is only gonna take an hour, you know?"

"Yeah, but still. When our hour is over, I'm gonna stay in the library and research some stuff since it's open until 10pm."

"I'll go with. As if I have anything better to do at home."

"Ok."

*bell rings*

...

"What do you mean you two got community services?!" Jin hyung shouted questionably.

"Calm down. We were just late." Jimin explains calmly.

"Well, if you get a community service, then I will too." Yoongi takes a sip of his soda from his straw.

"You really don't have to. I can just go with Jungkook." Jimin declines.

"Like that's any better than me being there. And I really don't wanna go to Sooyoung's party." Yoongi hyung mutters.

"Then get a community service. No one wants to be there, and if people actually do turn up, then they're probably just there because they have nothing else to do with their lives at home" I roll my eyes before taking another spoonful of my cup noodles.

"Namjoon and I are going. What's wrong with that?" Jin hyung questions.

"Well, maybe you and Namjoon hyung don't have anything better to do with your lives." Yoongi hyung says with his deep voice.

"You and Namjoon, huh? How's that relationship going for you?"

"Well.. We aren't exactly the best couple. And he doesn't exactly treat me nicely or lovingly, but, I guess it's alright because I know that he loves me."

"Jin hyung, I've seen with my own eyes what he's done to you. I know he really doesn't love you. I feel like you should break up with him before he breaks your heart even more." Jimin suggests concerned for the victim of an abusive relationship who was one of their dearest and well known friend.

"Why? What did Namjoon do?" Taehyung asks frustrated and worried. He does not want anything bad happening to his best friend. Or should I say biggest crush.

When Taehyung first told me about him being bisexual, I was proud that he was courageous enough to tell me about it. Of course I didn't judge him or tell anyone until he was ready because he is one of my closest friends.

"I don't think it would be appropriate to tell anybody, Jimin." Jin hyung really didn't want anyone to know what happens within the walls of his relationship with Namjoon. He gave Jimin a stern look.

At school and in public, he seems like a kind, respectful guy, but really on the inside, he's horribly rude, rebellious and abusive. And no one would suspect that because he rarely shows his bad side to people, especially in public or at school. Everyone would expect him to follow the rules and hand in his homework and assessments on time and be respectful to his teachers, but no.

"But I think it would." Taehyung frustratedly crosses his arms.

"Taehyung, It's none of your business!" Jin cries out before furiously walking away.

"Look what you did, Taehyung. Because of your nosy ass." Yoongi sticks his head up from Jimin's shoulder.

"I'm just worried for him. You guys should be too." Taehyung stormed away after Jin hyung to comfort him.

"So〜.. the par-"

"Not now!"
