Ice particles fly. The blade that cuts through the icy floor comes to a halt. The owner of the worn down, once white Ice skates poses as he had just finished his last program, the free skate. 

The audience cheered for the skater knowing he did the best he could. 

                                                                                      -

I did so bad, I could have done better. I don't even want to know my score anymore. 

I make my way to the kiss and cry. My stomach feeling queasy. I look at my coach, Choi Beomgyu. He looks at me proud and full of hope. But I knew deep down that I won't make it to the top three.

Coach Beomgyu put his arm around Jungkook as a form of comfort as they waited for the results. 

Jeon Jungkook ...............6th place with the score of 232.59.  

Jungkook looked defeated his chance to going to nationals gone, thrown out the window. 

Last place, last fuckin place. Jungkook kept repeating in his head until his coach nudged him taking him away from his thoughts. 

"Come on Jungkook let's go"         Jungkook huffed "okay"

                                                                                   -

While waiting to board the plane home Jungkook scrolled through his phone looking at the articles that already came out with the news of the recent Ice skating competition. Still angered by the previous argument he just had with his coach about giving up and retiring, jungkook threw his phone to the ground only for him to retrieve it a second after. 

His flight was announced and Jungkook made his way to board. 

On his way he noticed that there was a big crowd with cameras surrounding three people. 

Why is there so many paparazzi here.   

When Jungkook got closer it was clear as to why there were so many people. 

V was there. Looking effortlessly handsome in his black and white track suit, sleeves rolled up just enough to show off the veins on his sculpted arms. Ebony hair that curled perfectly, long enough to cover his beautiful chocolate brown eyes. 

To say Jungkook was starstruck is an understatement. V,one of the most talented Ice skater in all South Korea, possibly the world. In other words Jungkook's idol was standing in front of him. 

Jungkook, was so focused on V that he failed to notice the other males. The tallest one showcasing a serious expression, chin pop out as he is trying to get V and the other male through the mob of cameras. The shortest one of the two had bright pink hair making it so that you can see him from a mile away. 

Jungkook was still admiring the other's presence that he didn't realize he was about to be late for his flight. Once he gathered his thoughts he left to board he plane not forgetting to take one more glance at star, quickly walking away with a hint of pink covering his cheeks. 

Time to go home and no more ice skating for a while.
