Author's POV

Just as Rosé reached school, a figure immediately waved at her. A smile made its way to her face as hand hand itself raised high to wave back. She walked towards him. "Hey Jimin!" Jimin's smile grew, "Hey!"

Both of them walked inside the school side by side in silence. It was a comfortable silence for Rosé but an uneasy one for Jimin as he was raking up some conversation idea.

"Rosé," Jimin called. Rosé hummed and looked at the boy beside her. "I would love to say 'God bless you' at you but guess he already did."

Rosé groaned. "We talked about this at the café already! No.More.Flirty.Pick.Up.Lines. It's easy dude!"

"Well it's hard." Jimin mumbled to himself, looking down before he jerked his head up to face Rosé, who was looking at the front, with a smile. 

"Why are you with me anyway? Shouldn't you be with Joon and the rest of your friends?" Rosé asked. She turned her face to face Jimin with a arched brow on her face.

Jimin just shrugged with a smile. "I just want to be with you. You seem lonely and I want to be your friend—"

"Jimin I appreciate the fact you wanna be my friend. A friend to a loser like me but if you are doing it out of pity, then just no. I don't need your pity. I don't need anyone's pity." Rosé said, cutting Jimin's sentence.

Rosé looked at Jimin deep in the eye with a small smile on her face, "I'm know it all. I had friends before who friended me because of pity. They said I was such a loner and they wanted to friend me so that I won't be lonely and so that they could go through my ups and downs together. But you know what? I told them my secrets. Darkest secrets cause they asked me to one day and in return, the next day at school I was bullied at school. You know by who? By them. I was kinda hated there which was why I moved to here hoping the situation will be better but in here I was bullied too but at least not like my previous school did." Rosé said, tears welling up in her eyes. 

The thought of her 3 trusted friends betraying her hurts like hell for her.

Jimin just stared at the girl with no words. He was angry that he couldn't be there for her earlier. All he wanted now was to get revenge somehow, deep down he doesn't and besides, he doesn't know them. But he just wanted to comfort the girl standing in front him, head hanging low to hide the fact she was going to cry after talking about something sensitive to her.

Rosé's POV

I gulped in the lump in my throat. Of course I'm gonna cry. Such a crybaby I am. Maybe that nickname really suited me; 'Crybaby Chaeng'...

I thought to myself before I felt a pair of hands wrapping around my timid, fragile body. "Rosé... I am not friending you out of pity. I friended you because I want to..." Jimin's voice whispered in my ear softly. 

For the first time ever, I felt safe in a male's embrace (besides my stupid brother Butt-Min). I don't know why but I didn't wanna let go. It seems as if I will break and I think I will. I couldn't help but let the hot tears stream down my face and let it fall on his clothing. In fact, I was crying in front of someone after promising myself not to.

"Just cry all you want but first let's move to the rooftop to have some privacy. We can also skip Math which is the first period." Jimin said, adding some cheerfulness.

I don't deserve such an angel like him...
