Effect

⑥It's Raining

 
Jimin surged towards the teacher's lounge with long-legged strides. No one assaults his friends no matter who it is.

He was ready to yank the door open when he heard a shrill voice coming from inside.

"You did what!? Are you crazy?"

"Keep your damn voice down!"

Jimin attached his ear to the door and continued listening.

"I don't know what happened. I just saw red, okay? I don't know what got into me."

"So what, the mature and logical thing to do was call him a freaking whore? Jeongguk? Who had only one boyfriend before?" Hoseok bawled at him, enraged.

"I didn't mean it like that!"

"It doesn't matter how you meant it, the only thing that matters is that you said it, Tae! Give me a fucking reasonable explanation for talking to him like that, or I swear I'm taking this to the principal. I know we have been friends for years now, but talking to a student like this is not acceptable."

Way to go, Hoseok hyung! Jimin thought to himself as he grinned.

"You really wanna know?" Taehyung asked, feeling his insides flame with frustration.

"Yes."

"I got fucking hard because of him! I know it's not reasonable, but it's the only explanation I have. I got mad because I'm his teacher and he's my student and he made me hard. And you know that when I'm angry I say shit that I don't mean."

"Tae... what the hell?" Hoseok asked, outright stunned.

"I don't know, okay? Just please, don't take this to the principal. I'll apologize to Jeongguk and I'll stay out of his way. This is too dangerous."

"Do you like him?"

"Park, do you need anything?" Mrs. Han showed up out of nowhere, making Jimin bounce away from the door.

"Mrs. Han, beautiful as always I see and no, I don't need anything, okay bye." Jimin tittered and beetled off.

Ohmygodohmygodohmygod, he screamed on repeat internally as he practically sprinted back to the other four boys. Upon arriving at the entrance of the cafeteria, he took a deep pull of calming air and advanced.

"What happened?" Seokjin asked as the other sat down with them.

Jimin cleared his throat and leaned against the table with his elbows, holding his hands together. "Jeongguk."

The said boy lowered the sandwich he was holding as he was ready to take a bite and looked at him with big doe eyes.

"I have very important information in my hands right now. I want you to be calm when I say it, and I want you to use it wisely. Okay?"

Bemused to the core, Jeongguk slowly nodded as he swallowed.

"Jeongguk," Hoseok called then, interrupting the other. "Can you come with me for a moment?"

"Why?"

"I want to talk to you about what happened with Taehyung."

"No, Hoseok hyung. Don't even mention him to me. At least not right now."

"Okay." Hoseok gave him a bitter smile, a glimmer of disappointment crossing his face. "See you in class later."

After he walked away, Jeongguk set his eyes on Jimin again. "Tell me."

"Okay, the reason Mr. Kim got so angry at you—"

"Jimin, not you too! I don't wanna hear anything about him."
