Don't Play With My Heart

~1~

"taehyung, you know I need to study. Please, for the last time, leave me alone for one hour." jimin begged as I laid my head on his shoulder. I looked up at him with my puppy eyes, and Jimin smiled and rolled his eyes.

"C'mon jiminie-hyung, let's play~" I whined, wrapping my empty arm around his other shoulder to where i made a jimin sandwich.

"tae, give me ten minutes, just ten minutes, okay?" jimin begged, and i sighed, and released him from my hug. i got up from my chair and was walking to the bench section when i saw a flyer on the library's cork board. The cork board was basically where the library put up important dates and upcoming events, and usually i didn't pay any attention to it, until now. i grabbed the bright blue sheet of paper, and almost fainted at the first words.

'AUDITION FOR THE UPCOMING SCHOOL PLAY!"

i began reading the fine print, and got more excited as i read on.

"The story of a boy and a girl who fall in love with the help of their best friends. A play that will change your aspects on friendship, and the helpfulness that can come out of it."

Honestly, it sounded really cringey, but i knew that i was going to audition either way. i grabbed a copy of the flyer, and ran over to jimin who looked very stressed.

"How am I supposed to tell the difference between casa and caza?" I heard jimin mumble as i approached him.

"What?" i asked, and jimin looked up at me, his eyes glasses over. i began to laugh out of habit, and jimin wiped his eyes.

"Are you seriously crying over Spanish?" i asked, and jimin glared at me.

"Shut up mister fluent in spanish, english, and korean." jimin said sarcastically, and i laughed in multilingual.

"Anyways, look look look." I said, pressing the paper against his face. jimin gently hit my arm, and grabbed the flyer from my hands. His eyes skimmed over, and he smiled and handed it back to me.

"You better audition, because we both know you'll make it less cringey." jimin said, and i nodded my head in agreement. i knew that the lead female role would likely go to yoo jeongyeon, the best female actor in the entire school, and I loved working with her, so i wasn't worried about working with someone i didn't like.

"Also, I give up on Spanish. As I would say in Spanish, me rindo." jimin said, and i laughed. We left the library, and decided to get some tea at the café our 'older brother' worked at.

"eomma-jin!" jimin exclaimed, running behind the counter to hug seokjin. seokjin was our best friend, and we just called him 'eomma jin' because he acted way too motherly. i went behind the counter too, and joined in on the hug.

"How was school?" seokjin asked, and jimin began ranting about how Spanish was stupid and how it was a stupid language.

"My poor perrito." seokjin comfortingly said, patting jimin's head.

"If one more person says something in Spanish I will kill taehyung." jimin said, adorably irritated, and i laughed.

"Oh no! jimin-hyung is gonna bruise my knees! Whatever shall i do!?" i said, hiding behind seokjin. jimin just gave me a disappointed and annoyed look, but i smiled at him, hoping my cuteness would convince him to not hurt me later.

"Anyways, do you want some tea?" seokjin asked, and jimin and i nodded as we sat on the counter. jin tied his pink apron around his waist, and swatted us on the head with his wooden spoon he carried everywhere. We jumped off the counter, and went to the table closest to the window.

"You should audition for the play with me." i said, and jimin gave me his 'why did you even ask that' face. i smiled, and jimin returned it. jin suddenly came out from behind the counter, did a little spin, and handed us our teas. jin dragged a chair from another table, and sat down at our table.

~one hour later~

"i think we better go home, jin-hyung." i said, and jin began to pout, but jimin has already begun to hug jin, and you just can't be mad or sad when jimin is hugging you. jin smiled, and i attacked jimin from behind, jumping on his back.

"Ah tAE-" jimin said as he toppled backward, pulling jin out of his chair. We were laughing in a pile on the floor when the door opened. i looked up to see who it was, and my heart stopped. It was the three jerks of the school: Kim Namjoon, Jung Hoseok, and Jeon Jungkook. i quickly got up, and pulled jin and jimin up off the ground as fast as possible, bowed to the three, and pulled jimin out of the café.

"Bye jin-hyung, see you tomorrow." i said as the door closed. jimin looked at me confused, and i just gave him an awkward smile.

"i remembered I had to f-feed yeontan." I lied, and jimin knew i was lying as yeontan was at my aunt's house for the week. jimin sighed, but interlocked our arms as we walked to my house.

"Bye tae, see you tomorrow." jimin said, waving to me as i stepped into my house. i was not ready to be tormented by hoseok, namjoon, and jungkook tomorrow during first period.
