The 30 year plan | Namjin

First off bros lets just pretend that Korea's school calendar works like the US's (which is dumb btw).

Everyone in the grade are graduating at 19 but Hoseok Namjoon and Yoongi are 18 or bordering 18

✨🌼💛🌼✨

About 11 years ago...

"You have all come a long way, a very long way, from the beginning of your 1st year all they the way to the 3rd year. I have taught all of you, observed you all, and I have the utmost faith that you will make something useful-"

"Oh my god does he ever stop talking?" Yoongi complained, pulling at the collar of his fancy dress shirt.

"Never~" Namjoon whispered in agreement. Hoseok just laughed, patting his friend on the shoulder.

It was ass number of degrees in the middle of summer and they were stuck in the auditorium with no air conditioning. The heat was unbearable and the 3 big fans that the deans had decided was good enough for 1,000 people wasn't enough. Everyone was dying for the ceremony to end so they could shed their stuffy dress clothes and throw their notes in the trash. That didn't seem to be happening anytime soon so all Namjoon, Yoongi and Hoseok could do was wait.

"And now a speech from our valedictorian, Kim Seokjin and salutatorian, Kim Namjoon." The teacher announced.

"Fucking dumbass, he knows Jin isn't here!" Hoseok whisper shouted.

Namjoon sighed, looking at the empty seat next to him. Namjoon and Jin has always prided themselves on being the Kim's and also having a slight alphabetical difference in their name. They did everything together whether the teachers wanted to or not, but today just wasn't one of the those days.

Jin wasn't here today on the day of his own graduation. His mother needed to go in to get surgery for a tumor that was pressing against her brain. There was no telling what could happen to her and Jin wanted to be there. If he could have been here today, he would've given his valedictorian speech. Unfortunately, Namjoon with the second highest GPA and Hoseok with the third had to give speeches. This sucked major ass.

"Whatever, come on Hobi-hyung." Namjoon said, getting your from his seat and slinging an arm over his friends shoulder.

"Mr. Kim, Mr. Jung!" One of the teachers scolded as they made their way to the stage. "Posture! You are supposed to set an example for the school!" He scowled.

Hoseok and Namjoon complied, peeling apart and instead standing side by side with perfect posture. They got onto the stage and were met with the cheers of their classmates. Yes, their little group was a bit popular, but they didn't let that get to their head. Namjoon and Hoseok laughed, gesturing for the auditorium to quiet down.

"Hello class of 2009!" Namjoon greeted. "I am Kim Namjoon and-"

"Tell Seokjin-sunbae that we hope him the best!" Someone shouted, instantly getting shushed by the teachers.

The brunette smiled, glad that everyone had remembered his friend.

"I will, don't worry. It's is an honor to be presenting my speech as emergency valedictorian." He said. "I want to thank my amazing teachers, my classmates, my family, but most importantly by very close group of friends."

Cheers again.

"I wasn't supposed to be presenting this speech with this title, it was supposed to be my friend, Kim Seokjin. He's the oldest in our friend group and he's my best friend. And I know that to many in my graduating class he is a team player and a great leader." Namjoon told. "He's not dead or anything, but he wasn't able to be here today. Still, I know that he's the reason why I'm up here today."
