Chapter 7

The rest of the day was pretty uneventful.

Despite a few snide comments from the plastics about my hoodie during gym, it was nice to have some semblance of normality back.

School was the one thing I was good at. It came easily to me. Although I still had to cram for tests it wasn't the bane of my existence like it was for some. I'd always found it easy to keep my grades up and I actually enjoyed it when I did find something challenging.

Hobi had arranged to meet me our front after last period. Bio. The entire session Namjoon and his goons hadn't left me alone. I felt ball after ball of paper smack into the back of my head but I refused to turn around and let them see they were getting to me.

I tried to focus on Mr Kim's incessant ramblings when all I really wanted to do was practise my dissecting skills on Min Yoongi's face.

A final spit ball hit my head and I snapped. I whipped around with my number two pencil in hand and slammed it into the desk where Yoongi's hand was. It landed right between his middle and index finger penetrating itself deeply into the wood.

Yoongi ripped back his hand and checked it for invisible injuries. "You psychotic freak!" I just gave my most innocent smile.
back whilst flipping him off.

At the end of class Mr Kim told us that we would be doing a pairs project that would be half our grade this semester.

(A/N I know this cliche but bare with me)

I prayed to the earth mother to give me anyone, just please not anyone of the lot behind me.

"Kim Seokjin you will be paired with Min Yoongi." Why do the powers that hate me? "Guess it's just you and me Brucey boy" mused Yoongi wearing a grin that was much too big for my liking.

As the bell rang I lunged for the door faster than a fat kid seeing an ice-cream van. Before Yoongi had the chance to say anything more I was infront with Hobi.

He looked stressed. I didn't want to add to it so I just kept quite and walked her to the bus stop while he vented.

"Kevin says it'll cost $600 to fix the bug. I just don't know how to get that kind of money. I mean, the car isn't even worth that much but I just love her so much, I can't just scrap her."

I'd offer him every penny I had saved over the summer but I knew his pride wouldn't let him take it. It just wasn't who he was.

I gave her a quick hug and offered anyway before he borded the bus. He politely declined so I told him to call me later and we'd come up with a plan.

As I turned back towards the school I realised I didn't know where Namjoon was. I looked around the car park but his black sports car was nowhere to be seen.

Fuck. I should have got the bus with Hobi.

I turned and started to walk towards the Manor. 15 minutes in I was getting tired. Between gym today and the first day back I wasn't at my peak physical performance.

I looked over at the hillside park. Dad always told me not to go through there after it became a hot bed for the town low lives but it took 10 minutes off the walk and it was the middle of the day.

I decided to chance it.

Walking through it was peaceful. Although it was more of a woodland with a path than an actual park it was still really beautiful. I saw a cyclist in the distance and after a minute they were zipping past me. I could see the park gate at the end of the path and was grateful that in a few minutes I would be welcoming myself into a much needed hot bubble bath.
