Too Young | Jikook

38

Winter break ends and it's time for them to go back to school.

Junghyun tries to sit in the front seat of Jungkook's Jeep, but he stops him. "Jimin's sitting there."

Junghyun huffs. "Why are we still picking him up?"

"Because I'm dating him."

"I don't want us to pick him up."

"Too bad. It's my car, so I get to decide."

"Fine, but let me sit in the front seat."

Jungkook chuckles. "No. You're sitting in the back."

Jimin walks out to Jungkook's Jeep and sits in the passenger seat. He glances back and sees that Junghyun is staring out the window.

Jungkook gives him a quick kiss. "Did you sleep well?"

Jimin nods softly. Jungkook reaches over to hold his hand but Jimin shakes his head, glancing at Junghyun again.

Jungkook pouts and takes the car out of park.

He walks Jimin to his first period. "Don't let Junghyun ruin your mood. He's just acting immature."

"I can't help it."

"He's not worth it. If he's not willing to be just a little bit uncomfortable for you to be happy, then you shouldn't waste any time on him."

Jimin stops walking. "But... He's been my best friend since Kindergarten..." He chokes up and tears start forming in his eyes.

Jungkook frowns and cups his cheek in his hand. "Baby... Don't cry. He's not worth the tears."

Jimin starts crying. "I'm sorry..."

"For what? Why are you apologizing?"

Jimin tries to wipe his tears away but they keep reforming. "You told me not to cry, but I'm crying."

Jungkook gives him a kiss. "That's not something you need to apologize for."

"I don't want to go to my first period. I don't think I'm gonna stop crying."

"Just try to make it through the first two periods. You can come and visit me in my math class during lunch again."
