"Football season is almost over, I'm so sad," Tzuyu mumbled, stretching out across the table everyone was seated at. Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows together.
"Why?" he asked, taking a sip of his soda.
"It just means we're closer to graduation," Hyuna responded, stabbing her fork into her salad. Jungkook frowned. He wasn't really sure if he was ready to leave high school yet.
"I'm not sure if I'm really looking forward to it," he mumbled, fumbling through his calculus notebook. He hadn't really been taking notes in class. But Jimin would probably be willing to share his notes with him.
"Even if you're not looking forward to graduation, you should look forward to the championships," Yeri added, nudging him from beside. "We get to go out of town for it!"
"Really?" Jungkook asked, eyes wide with excitement. Yeri nodded eagerly and gave him a soft smile.
"That's what the meeting today's gonna be about," Hyuna added, twirling around her straw in her coffee. Jungkook nodded and stared down his notes.
"I'm gonna go, I have to get some notes," Jungkook said, shoving his things into his bag and scampering off. He rushed down the hallways and let out a sigh of relief when he saw Jimin standing by the calculus classroom.
"Hey, Jimin!" Jungkook said rather loudly. Jimin flinched but gave Jungkook a sad smile. To anyone else, it would look forced, but to Jungkook, Jimin looked normal.
"H-Hey, Jungkook..." Jimin mumbled when Jungkook got closer to him. Jungkook grinned and grabbed his notebook out of his bag.
"Do you think you can lend me your notes?" Jungkook asked, making his eyes grow wide and giving Jimin a pout for good measure. Jimin bit his lip and glanced around, but ultimately nodded slowly.
"I'll just take a picture of them," Jungkook said, pulling his phone out after Jimin had opened his notebook. Jimin stuttered.
"Y-You can just copy them down," he said. Jungkook looked up from his phone and saw swirls of emotions in Jimin's eyes. But he couldn't really tell what was going through his mind.
"It's fine. I have to go to the bathroom, anyways," Jungkook said, snapping a picture of the notes. Jimin nodded sadly and took back his notes once Jungkook was done.
"Thanks, Jimin!" Jungkook said, tossing his phone in his bag and running off to the bathroom. He set his things down and turned to the mirror, letting out a long sigh.
"Do I really look that different?" Jungkook mumbled, looking at his face in the mirror. He looked like himself, so he wasn't really sure why Jimin was having a heart attack.
He didn't look different. Sure, his hair was dyed and he lost his glasses, but he hadn't changed that much. His "transformation" wasn't as drastic as Jimin was making it seem, right?
"Hey, Kookie," Suho said, slipping into the bathroom and startling Jungkook. Jungkook jumped and smiled, feeling pink dust over his cheeks from embarrassment.
"Hi Suho," he mumbled, fiddling awkwardly with the sleeves of his uniform. Suho stared at him. Jungkook didn't bother to meet his gaze. He wasn't really sure why he felt so embarrassed, either.
"Are you busy?" Suho asked. Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows together and looked up at him. How could he be busy? He was just caught staring at his reflection in the boy's bathroom. Narcissism wasn't that time consuming.
"Uh, no," Jungkook said with a giggle. Something in Suho's face shifted, but Jungkook couldn't tell what it was.
"Do you, maybe, want to go out with me this weekend?" he asked. Jungkook paused.
"W-What's with that question all of a sudden?" Jungkook stuttered, the warmness rushing to his cheeks again.
"I just... wanted to blow off some steam. The football championships are coming up and I'm a little... stressed," Suho responded, looking down at Jungkook with genuine hope in his eyes.
Jungkook bit his lip. His emotions were swirling around in him in clouds that Suho could probably see. He definitely wanted to go out this weekend, since he wasn't doing anything and Suho did prove a good point, but Taehyung wouldn't leave his thoughts.
Jungkook needed to stay loyal to Taehyung, right? But he and Taehyung were just friends. It wasn't like they were in a relationship, and it would be bad on Jungkook's part to act as if they were.
It was fine to go out with Suho, right? Jungkook wouldn't be cheating on Taehyung. They weren't even in a relationship. And Jungkook was still loyal.
"Sure! Just text me the details later," Jungkook said, putting on a pretty smile for Suho. Suho smiled back and stared at Jungkook's face.
"Can I kiss you?"
Jungkook froze.
But then he nodded.
When he felt Suho's lips crash against his, Taehyung wormed his way into his thoughts again. But Jungkook wasn't doing anything bad. He and Taehyung weren't a relationship.
"O-Oh, Jungkook."
Jungkook pulled away from Suho and whipped around, cursing at himself for not checking to make sure they were alone in the bathroom first. He put on a smile when he saw Namjoon staring at him.
"I-I'm going, sorry," Namjoon said, and rushed past them and out of the bathroom. Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows together and made a mental note to ask Namjoon what was going on.
"What was that?" Suho asked, glancing behind him as Namjoon scurried out of the bathroom. He watched as Namjoon awkwardly walked back in to wash his hands and then left for good.
"Don't worry about him," Jungkook mumbled, feeling the heavy weight of Suho's hands on his hips. Suho nodded and stared down at Jungkook. He leaned in again, but Jungkook stopped him with a finger to his lips.
"Don't you have to get to class?" he teased, a sly smirk on his face. Sink rolled his eyes and punches Jungkook's waist before grabbing his bag and walking out of the bathroom.
"I'll see you this weekend?" he asked, one foot in the hallway and one in the bathroom. Jungkook nodded and Suho smiled before running off. Jungkook sighed and turned to the mirror again.
Maybe he did look a little bit different.
