(HyoJin's P.O.V)

"Sorry about her.." Jimin trailed off, rubbing the back of his neck as we stood by a secluded janitors closet alone. I didn't know what to say, it wasn't his fault that there were girls like that obsessing over him - I mean, look at him. His eyes were shining as he looked at the ground, waiting for my answer.

"It's fine. It's not your fault." I replied, smiling.

He looked up and smiled back, then lifted my arm up. "Is it sore? She had quite the grip.." He asked, pulling my sleeve up revealing my red wrist.

"Ow.." I flinched in pain as his soft fingers lingered over the marks. His face began to fill with pity. 

"Oh, sorry.. I didn't mean to hurt it more.." He said, looking down at my face as he pulled the sleeve slowly back over my wrist. Jimin was shorter than Taehyung, probably around 5"7 which wasn't all that tall, but still taller than myself.

"So do you want to come to lunch with me?" He asked, then added, "and my six other friends.."

I thought about this for a minute.

I do want to hang out with Jimin, of course, because what girl wouldn't? And the three friends of his I've met are great.. But do I really want to walk into the cafeteria between the seven most popular boys in school, on my first day? No, I don't want to draw more attention to myself - dancing is priority, and I know I'll end up getting into fights with jealous girls.

"Ah, thanks.. But I think.. I'm going to do some practice instead. I'll skip lunch." I replied, clearing my throat.

He cocked his head, confused. Clearly no one had turned down an invitation like that of his before. It was kind of cute, the way he looked. "Really? Are you sure?" he asked. 

"Yeah." I replied, pursing my lips together. 

He nodded, but as he turned on his sneaker to walk away, he stopped. "I should practice with you." 

I looked up from the ground. My heart started to pound a little, feeling surprised that he was going to skip lunch to help me. "You sure?" I asked, raising my eyebrows. 

"Yeah," he smiled, "lets go."

(Jimin's P.O.V)

I texted the guys, telling them I wouldn't be there for lunch because I was with HyoJin practicing. They offered to come help, but I refused their offer because.. I don't know.. for some reason, I feel like some alone time with her. Usually I'm not like this with girls, and I felt kind of nervous with her.. for some reason, she isn't like most girls. She's more.. confident. And usually I'm really confident with girls, and they try their hardest to make me like them.. But she is different, and doesn't seem like she's trying to impress me.

And speaking of girls that try impress me.. that SoRa girl is such a bitch.. I wish she'd just leave me alone - and HyoJin for that matter.. It's not her fault, ugh honestly I just want to-

"Uh, Jimin?" HyoJin asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. 

"Ah, sorry.. What did you say?" I asked, coming back into reality. We were outside on a grassy area, out the back of school. There weren't much people around, most were inside studying and eating, others would be doing the same thing except outside on the front part of the school.

"You can go if you want, you don't seem like you want to be here.." She said, as she sat in front of me.

"No, it's not that.. I was just thinking about something.." I said, smiling to change the subject.
