There's something that pushes him towards Jeong Yein.

Maybe it was her braveness, the way she'd never feared anyone and would stand up for what she believed was right? Or the way she acted like a grown up even though she was younger than most students there? The way she walked so confidently, not bothering the many stares of envious students? Her angelic yet sly smile? 

What did she do to capture the heart of Ravenclaw's golden boy?

She was one of the most hated and also beloved students at Hogwarts. In just the tender age of twelve, she made herself known in the castle, may it be positively or negatively. Boys liked and feared her. Girls, on the other hand, envied and admired her. Professors would complain about her because of her bravery to stand up against them as her 'rebellious' act.

Jungkook remembered how she waltzed through the floor of the Great Hall on her first year. It would be an understatement to say that she didn't catch his attention, because she did. Instead of cowering and nervously smiling like her freshmen peers, twelve-year-old Jeong Yein raised her chin and confidently walked with such grace. Students at the Great Hall marveled about her. At such a young age, she held herself up high with a smile gracing on her face.

"Stop staring at the girl, Kook. You're starting to look creepy," Jisoo teased. 

The then thirteen-year-old Jungkook shook his head, his cheeks flushed, and rubbed his nape. "I-I'm not...s-staring at her at all," he shyly muttered. He should've known his friend would notice him gaping at her. Jisoo was known to be very observant. 

The older Ravenclaw just grinned at him before ruffling his raven hair. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, kiddo."

Jungkook offered her a small smile before turning his attention back to the freshmen students—to her—as they started the sorting. 

"Miss Jeong Yein," one of the professors announced.

The said young one calmly walked up the stage and into the chair. The Sorting Hat grumbled.

"Confident...Hmm...Brave...Sly..." it said. 

Beside Jungkook, Jisoo chuckled. "Ah, a Slytherin. I can feel it."

The former frowned as he stared at the girl on the stage. She was...calm. Her face was void of any emotions.

"Rebellious...Oh, competitive. A Slytherin!" it announced making the whole Slytherin house cheer. Yein only smirked before getting up and leaving the stage to go to her respective table which was parallel to Ravenclaw's table.

Jungkook stared at her in awe as she sat on her chair while the other Slytherins welcomed her. To say that she wasn't even bothered by them and only gave them a small sly smile showed why she really belonged to that house.
