"Has anyone seen Hoseok?" I ask everyone at lunch.

"Actually I haven't seen him or Jinho since physical science." Hongseok says after everyone shakes their head.

"Maybe check the music room." Yoongi says flatly.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Hongseok asks as im grabbing my backpack.

"I'm not hungry." I say before leaving the cafeteria.

"Hoseok are you in-" I start to say before seeing him holding a small blade and his bloody wrist.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy?" I say as I run to him and grabbing the blade out of his hands.

"What does it look like?" Hoseok says rhetorically.

"Why though?" I ask looking at him.

"Did he tell you to do it?" I ask after not getting an answer.

"It doesn't matter if he told me or not. Everyone saw the cuts when I took off my hoodie." He says while pulling his sleeve down and turning towards the door as Jinho walks in.

"You should go to the nurse." Jinho say worriedly.

"So you suddenly care about him now." I say to Jinho.

"I've always cared about him." He says raising a brow.

"I'm not going to the nurse." Hoseok says interrupting Jinho.

"Then go home." Jinho says grabbing Hoseok's backpack and handing it to him.

"Why'd you make him take off his jacket if you knew what he was hiding?" I ask after watching Hoseok leave the music room.

"Because I wanted everyone to see what he does to himself and for him to realize he needs help." Jinho says annoyed.

"No you're the one who needs help." I say digusted.

"Do you even hear what you're saying right now? why would I need help?" Jinho says irritated.

"Because you're hurting him." I say before getting interrupted.

"I'm not the one who tried jumping off a building. I'm just trying to help him." Jinho says displeased.

"What?" I ask not believing what I heard.

"I'm not the one that's doing this to him. How many time must I tell you?" Jinho says seeming unbothered.

"So are you trying tell me he just picks up a knife and cuts himself on purpose." I say getting mad at how he seems to not care at all.

"Pretty much yeah." He says with a nod.

"Wow." I say shaking my head.

"I mean I sometimes do it, but only if he refuses too, but luckly most of the time I tell him to do it and he does it so if you think about it it's not my fault, he doesn't actually have to do what I tell him." Jinho says with a slight chuckle.

"You're sick." I say watching him walk away.

""I wouldn't say sick, but maybe a little sadistic." He says with a wink.

"What did you just say?" I say finding what he said familiar.

"I'm joking." He says smiling before leaving the music room.

"Why do you keep looking at me?" I ask Hongseok.

"Something has to be wrong." He says confusing me.

"What are you talking about?" I ask baffled.

"You've been really quiet lately. Why?" He asks seeming concerned.

"I've just been thinking." I say honestly.

"About what? Hoseok?" He asks with a smirk.

"Yes, but right now I cannot stop thinking about what Jinho said." I say sighing.

"He said he was joking so it's not a big deal." Hongseok says shaking his head.

"Yeah, but I think i've heard him say it before." I say thinking.

"What are you even talking about?" He says raising a brow.

"You know how I told you about the dreams i've been having?" I ask Hongseok.

"What about them?" He asks.

"I think I had a dream about that conversation, but it wasn't exactly what happened. If I did really dream what happened today then that means the other dreams are real too, but just hasn't happened yet." I say shocked.

"You sound like a lunatic right now." He says shaking his head in disappointment.

"I'm being serious." I say watching him put away his things.

"I got to go. Talk to me when you're not crazy." He says before waving goodbye.

"Where are you going?" I ask him trying not to yell.

"Home it's getting late and the library is about to close in fifteen minutes." He says before leaving me in the library alone.

"Fifteen is enough time to talk don't you think?" A boy asks out of nowhere while i'm getting ready to leave.

"I'm not in the mood to talk to you right now Jinho?" I say already annoyed.

"Answer one question for me and i'll leave you alone." Jinho says as I start walking towards the exit of the library causing him to follow.

"Fine what do you want to ask me?" I say stopping near the door.

"Do you like me?"  Jinho asks almost seeming shy.

"Yes." I say looking away so he won't know i'm lying.

"By "yes" you only mean as a friend. Tsk I guess i've just been friend zoned." He says with a small smirk.

"Sorry." I say not actually feeling any sympathy for him,

"Ouch, I didn't know being friend zoned hurt this bad." He says with a small chuckle.

After a few seconds of complete silence he begins stepping closer to me, bending down and pushing my chin up so we'd be face to face.

"What makes you like him better than me? It can't be money. It can't be looks. Hmm I guess that's one question that will never be answered." He says standing back up and releasing my chin.

"How come it will never be answered?" I ask curiously and slightly concerned.
