A New Start | Yoonkook

New Neighbour

"Jungkook?"

And when he turned his head to look up, his jaw lost itsvstrength momentarily, not hiding his shock as he stared at his teacher.

Mr. Min.

"Sir- um.."

"Want me to drive you?"

Jungkook didnt know why he took so long to answer, mind seemingly going blank during the moment of silent. He scrambled up to his feet, cheeks burning up at the amused chuckle coming from the older.

"Well?"

"No..i-its okay- thank you" he mumbled, gaze trailing down to his feet.

Yoongis smile softened and he nodded "alright then, ill see you in class Mr. Jeon" he said kindly and Jungkook hadnt really registered it, got kind of lost as he wondered how someone could look so pretty while smiling.

He kind of stood there for too long, even after Yoongi had drove away. He gasps, cursing to himself as he ran to his bus stop, hopping that he hadnt missed it.

Arriving in class was embarrassing. Because Jungkook was late- and of course it had to be Mr.Mins class. Of course he notices the amuzed look in his teachers eyes when hes in the middle of speaking. "Glad you could join us Mr. Jeon. Detention." He stated sinply and Jungkook sighed.

He wasnt mad at him for it- those were the school rules but he still felt annoyed at the fact that he'd have to stay afterschool. The rest of the class was a little bit of a blur, the boy mostly distracted by his teacher himself rather than the lesson when he talked.

Yugyeom and him had teamed up for a course work, leaving the rest of the class for them to discuss the topic. It seemed kind of long- doing a presentation on underrated artist with a list that they were given, but it seemed interesting.

And of course Jungkook noticed- it was practically whats been making him squirm on his seat the whole time. Mr. Mins stare, that is. Maybe he was being delusional- he didnt actually look to confirm his suspicions, (he's too much of a coward to do that)  But he could feel the pressure the gaze put on him, leaving his cheeks just a light shade of pink as he tried not to get distracted in their conversation. His blush was almost unnoticeable, for someone that wasnt his best friend, that is. Of course Yugyeom noticed.

The latter squinted his eyes at him, makin go Jungkook shift and look away. "youre bl-" "noimnot shut up thats not what we were talking about." Jungkook quickly cut him off. "Youre gettind defensive." Yugyeom said smugly "because youre annoying" he answered with a huff. "Not a reason, i always am" Yugyeom grinned.

After that discovery, the rest of the class was spent with Yugyeom teasing Jungkook knowingly while to boy resisted the urge to break hus beloved best friend's neck for embarrassing him so much. Now his fluster was noticeable to anyone.

Jungkook didnt see his teacher for the rest of the day (not like he was hoping to see him anyways. Yeah.) and once the end of the dat arrived, Jungkook still had an hour left in this building before he could leave.

He sighed heavily, dragging himself to the detention room, sitting on a seat that hed usually take in class. The supervisor had just arrived Taking the presences as Jungkook buried his face in his arms behind his bag- still holding a pencil to somewhat look like he was working.

He hadnt noticed the person that sat next to him, hearing muffled with the music he listened too. He jumped in surprise once he felt something touching the curled locks on his hair, looking up to be met with an unfamiliar face. Jungkook had to admit though, she was pretty. Why did he keep meeting attractive people?

The girl only grinned at him, teeth unfairly perfect as she leaned back comfortably on her seat. "Sorry, your hair looked soft" she said quietly, as to not get caught.
Jungkooks lips parted, lagging for a moment as to think of what to answer to that. "Its..its okay.." he mumbled, a little amused at the random encounter.

"Whats your name?"

"Jungkook"

She smile, reaching up to fix a curl that was pointing up from when he was laying down. Jungkook blinked. She seems touchy.

"um..whats your name?" He asked in return

"Soyeon" she stated.

The boy hummed, surprisingly not as nervous as when he met strangers. And strangerly- the detention passed quickly next to her, the two talked quietly, jungkook laughing quietly a few times at her silly humour and he could tell she was charismatic- something he wasnt so much.

                       •                •                •

They were packing their things already, Jungkook looking up when he felt a finger push his chin up. Soyeon smiled, pulling away to take her phone from her pocket.

"Can i have your number?"

They exchanged digits, and soon they were walking out of class, somehow still speaking to each other. It was nice- Soyeon knew how to hold a conversation and she didnt force him to speak more than he wanted.

They slowed their walk in the hallway, her smiling at him. "I have practice now so im staying." "What team are you in?" "Basketball" she answered, the boy humming in acknowledgment.

She reached up to pat his hair again, having already admitted that she was fond of the soft feeling. "Ill see you around, Jungkook." She said and Jungkook nodded, waving lightly "Ill see you around, noona." He hummed, her insisting to be called that already after finding out that she was older than him.

The girl had quickly disappeared as she hurried to her locker, probably to not be late and Jungkook almost yelped when he turned around. He locked eyes with non-other than Mr.Min, who looked like he was just closing his classroom and heading home.

He smiled.

"Well, are you gonna reject my offer now too?"

He didnt.

The car ride was..weird? He couldnt say what, Jungkook could find everything weird. Especially with the silence that was lingering. Though it was really awkward- Jungkooks thoughts were too loud in his opinion. He tried not to think about the man right next to him- and not bang his head against the window when he got flustered after glancing at his hands toying with the keys. Who the hell got flustered from hands. he didnt. So why did he now?

When they arrived, the both exited the car, Jungkooks shifting awkwardly as he swung his bag on his back. "u-um..thank you for driving me, sir" he mumbled. "You can call me hyung out of school Jungkook, its fine." The male stated with a small smile.

"Yknow, i dont mind being your chauffeur

"Really?" "Really."

The conversation ended with Jungkook managing to stutter out a thank you and goodbye. He felt embarrassed again at the amused look in the males face stop looking at me like that.

When entering his house, the boy dropped his bag and let himself fall on his bed, groaning as he turned to lay on his back, staring up at the ceiling.

Today took too much energy for just one day of school.

He felt like this year would be a long one, and a very very different one too.
