As I get my things out of my locker, I hear a familiar voice shouting my name...

"Hey Leera! Leera!"

I shut my locker to see Namjoon running down the hall while holding onto his backpack strap to keep it from flying away.

"Oh hi Namjoon. How did you recognize me from that far away?"

He catches his breath for a moment before replying...

"You're wearing those same yellow socks you were wearing last night."

He points down to my knee socks that are pretty hard to not notice...

"Oh crap. I forgot to change them.."

I bend down to roll them down to my ankles...

"It's alright. Had a busy morning then?"

"Yeah, I guess. My baby brother for some reason was really needy today, so I couldn't pay attention to what I needed to do."

"Aw that's too bad. How old is he?"

"He just turned one a few weeks ago."

My books are slipping out of my hands, so I try to take a better hold of them...

"So he really is a little one. Uhm do you need help?"

"No, I'm fi-.."

Before I can even finish, he's already taking some books away from me.

"So what's your first class, Leera?"

"Math."

"Mine's English, which is right down the hall from math. I'll take you there."

He gives me a small smile, making me feel shy, so I simply nod...

We walk down the halls side by side silently until someone suddenly crashes into me to rest their arm around my shoulders...

I quickly look over to see it's Hoseok...

"Hey Leera! Where are-..Namjoon?"

We all come to a stop as Hoseok looks shocked to see that Namjoon's with me.

"How've you been, Hoseok?"

"Good...so you're friend's with Leera too?"

I don't know if I would really call Hoseok a friend yet, but he seems to be the type of person who can be friends with anyone, so I'm call it friends.

"Well Leera and I work-.."

I don't want anyone in this fancy school to know I'm working at a restaurant after school to pay the bills!

I quickly slam my hand over his mouth so Hoseok doesn't hear the rest...

"We worked on our homework last night together!"
