"Accept the fact that you love Jimin" Somi said making Sarah get shocked at her sudden statement.

The next week finally Sarah went to university for the first time after the incident and she wanted to sort things up with Yejun first but some professor called him up so deciding Sarah came to catch up with her girlies whom she rarely met due to their departments.

"I don't know" Sarah said.
"You do and it's visible" Karina said as Somi nodded.

Yuqi and Sakura couldn't able to catch up with them as they had classes, but promised to catch up later somewhere out of University.

"But Yejun proposing? I never thought he has that guts" Somi said.
"But he is actually nice, I had an assignment with him" Karina said as Sarah agreed.
"Actually he is but I never saw him in that way, he was more like a brother to me" Sarah said as Somi agreed.
"Yeah like you know him for long" Sarah hummed in response.

The cool breeze hit their faces as they were situated under a tree on one of the benches in the corners while there were not many people except few girls playing badminton and two guys in the basketball court trying to aim in the basket one after other.

The conversation continued with simple casual topics to academics as one by one they had to leave.

Spotting Jaemin and Mark, Sarah decided to go to them.

"Hey guys" Sarah said as she motioned them to move and sat between them.
"Yo long time no see" Mark said as Sarah nodded.
"Where are other's?" Sarah asked casually.

"Donghyuck and Jisung aren't well, Jisung came but went back after assignment submission. Renjun, Chenle and Jeno have classes." Jaemin said.

"How did they fall sick out of nowhere?" Sarah asked, concern lacing in her voice as Jaemin shrugged.

"Jisung got food poisoning, Donghyuck got a fever it seems" Jaemin continued.
"Oh, I didn't check my phone. I don't even remember if I have it with me." Sarah said, shrugging.

"How have you been? Like after what happened..." Mark asked in an unsure tone.
"I was just shocked, nothing else then got my days so I didn't come to university" Sarah said as Mark nodded in understanding.

"But wasn't it so out of nowhere?" Jaemin asked, the random proposal being weird.
"Yeah kind of, I didn't expect that even for a little" Sarah said.

There was a pause before Mark started.
"Yo we should hang out someday"
"Yeah right" Jaemin accompanied.
"Let's hang out once Jisung and Hyuck are okay" Sarah said as both of them nodded.

Again they came up with the talk of random things till Sarah got a call from Yejun.

"I'll go now, if we won't be dead drained then let's meet after uni in the campus itself" Sarah said as they bidded goodbyes while the other two went for their next classes.

"Sarah I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you" Yejun said, panicking.
"Calm down, it's fine I was just shocked" Sarah said as Yejun nodded.

"I just wanted to move on by confessing, I don't want to be in a relationship" Yejun said as Sarah nodded slightly.
"We can continue as friends" Sarah said as Yejun smiled.

"Really?" Yejun asked.
"Yeah why not? You don't want it?" Sarah frowned.
"No no I didn't think that you would accept being friends further" Yejun said
"Why won't I?"

Jimin was walking around the campus now with a chewing gum in his mouth, blowing a bubble time to time as he saw Yejun and Sarah making him feel weird.

He didn't knew why he was feeling like this but shrugging it off Jimin went to Jihoon to his usual spot, the library.

As expected Jihoon was sat in the corner of the library but not really studying as usual, he had his headphones on while had a novel open in front of him as his head rested on his arms which was on top of the novel his arms enveloping his head.

Jimin went to him as he patted him gently.

There was no response from his side, assuming that he was asleep Jimin took off his head phones and patted him again as Jihoon looked up as he fetched for his glasses which Jimin was quick to give him as he wore it.

"Come out" Jimin said in a low tone, as people were studying in the library.

Jihoon hummed as he packed up his things, slid his bag on his left shoulder as he walked along with Jimin.

"You should sleep at home not in library" Jimin said.
"Look who is speaking" Jihoon said making Jimin roll his eyes.

Walking around the campus the conversation continued.

"So talked to Sarah?" Jihoon asked.
"No, I think I'm just overthinking" Jimin said making Jihoon sigh.
"You are so dumb" Jihoon said giving Jimin a judging look.

"What? You've never been in the situation I'm in" Jimin said.
"But if I would be in it I would definitely not be this dumb" Jihoon said making Jimin sigh.

"You aren't helping me with it" Jimin said.
"Try being with her and understanding her more then if you still feel the same go and confess" Jihoon said.

"But how will I even confess?" Jimin asked.
"How will I know that?" Jihoon said as Jimin sighed.

"It's so hard, I don't understand how people manage to get into relationships" Jimin said as Jihoon shrugged.

"It's weird to me" Jihoon said.
"I don't know, what if she rejects and doesn't think of me that way" Jimin said as Jihoon shook his head in disbelief.

"It doesn't seem like you're gonna confess to her." Jihoon said.
"I don't know really" Jimin said.

"I think you should try to give hints on you like her then confess rather than directly confessing to her, don't think much about rejection." Jihoon said as Jimin nodded.

"Will see" Jimin said.

Jihoon's alarm rang as he fetched his phone from his pocket and switched it off.
"I have class now in 5 minutes" Jihoon said.

"Okay then see you later"

Sarah was now there seated in Jaemin's house couch as Jaemin came out of his room and sat beside her.

"I need help" Sarah looked at Jaemin as he gave her a soft nod to continue.

"I just think it is it but I'm not sure" Sarah said, playing with the drawstrings of her sweatpants.

"What is what?" Jaemin asked softly, not wanting to tense her.

Sarah took a pause before continuing.
"I think I have a crush on Jimin"

Jaemin looked at her in shock.
"Really?" Sarah nodded.
"I think so, I'm not sure" Sarah said.

"Aw my baby is so grown up" Jaemin said adoring her like a child of his.
"Aish stop it" Sarah hit his arm, a red tint on her cheeks.

Sarah took a sip of water and looked around his house, it was not a new environment for her but his aesthetics were really admirable.

"He seems nice to you, you should try to confess if you are really sure and ready for a relationship or just tell him about it and take you time. I'm sure he'll understand it" Jaemin said.

"Yeah maybe I should, but Jeno doesn't know about this" Sarah said.
"Oh, tell him first then" Jaemin said.

"What if he doesn't accept it?" Sarah asked, suddenly feeling the trust issues rise.
"He surely will, he never says no to you" Jaemin said, knowing how much Jeno loved his sister.

"I'll try" Sarah said.

The door unlocked making them both peek to the door now standing, revealing other 6 guys.

"Food is here guys! Let's enjoy the night!" Donghyuck said being loud as usual.
"Yah lower your voice!" Renjun said.

Donghyuck walked to Sarah and back hugged her.
"Look Rejun is being mean to me" Donghyuck said fake crying.
"Yah Renjun don't be mean to my baby" Sarah said acting along as Renjun rolled his eyes.

Donghyuck released the hug as he joined Jaemin in serving the food.

Sarah glared at Jeno which he reciprocated making them both chuckle as they all got indulged in enjoying the food.
