Walking to where the teachers were, I couldn't help but to take chances looking at Jimin.

'Mate'

I watched his features as he focused on where he was going. The sharp jawline, the plump lips, the fluffy hair. Everything was perfect that I find myself completely whipped for him and I can imagine that if I was a boy, I would be gay by now. I softly licked my lips and ran my hand through my hair, slowly turning away with him in my mind. Flowing into each thought I have, I let out one small smile. I chuckle to myself as I notice his shadow walk closer to mine. My eyes led back to his unconsciously while he notices a light pink on my cheeks. I'm blushing...

In a couple of seconds, we were side by side walking. I controlled my thoughts, trying not to let things get wild and turn my cheeks rose red. As we were at registration, we all sat down on the logs from a couple days ago. Just like the past days, me and Jimin have been getting closer and closer but I can see after what I heard yesterday, he's holding in the urge to talk to me. I sighed and watched all the other groups come to sit and stand around.

"Hyunjin! Over here!" I shouted out and he quickly changed his sense of direction to me. He ran over to where I was and we both hugged like we haven't seen each other in years. "Guess what." I say and he lifted one eye brow while thinking.
"You lost your phone." He suddenly said confidently and my face dropped in surprise.
"Wow! I mean no, it wasn't that, but Freya did lose hers." I clap and Freya walked towards us suspiciously.
"I heard my name." Me and Hyunjin both giggle as she pouts, watching us.
"Nothing." I carried on. "I was just about to tell Hyunjin mum and dad texted."

Hyunjin's face lit up quickly and I grabbed my phone from my pocket, turning it on and giving it to him. It took a while but I could see him get super happy knowing that they are okay. The only thing we don't know is what the good news is.

"Registration!" One of the teachers brought us out of our chats and started to shout out names. Hyunjin gave me my phone and I placed it back in while he said his byes and walked back to his group.

"Jeong Y/N."
"Here!" I answered when the teacher said my name. She ticked it off and called out more.
"Freya Suffor."

"H-" She started to make coughing noises so she couldn't answer. I turned to her and saw a water bottle in her hand as she spits out the water. I widen my eyes and was about to get up to help but she swallowed the rest down and finally answered. "Here!"

I sigh in relief and she looks down embarrassed. There was a mini feeling of pity in my tummy so I got up and hugged her as she soon smiled to me.

"Park Jimin!" I teacher said.
"...Here." He says hesitantly. I look over and I caught him red handed looking at me with wide eyes.

Me and Freya laugh to ourselves when we see him try to cover it up, looking around like he wasn't actually looking at us.

I take the seat beside him and Freya joins.

"Okay everyone! Today will be very different as we believe you need a rest from yesterday's climb so today, we will be making some lanterns for our tents."
"Will we release them?" A random student blurted out and the teacher shook their head as a no.
"This is for decoration. After you created them, there will be a scavenger hunt and since it might be dark, the lanterns come handy."

Everyone nodded as all the teachers handed out the supplies to make them. They also gave out some picnic blankets for each team to sit on while making them.

Yoongi, Taehyung and Namjoon had the blankets as the others held their blank lanterns. We wandered back to were our tents were and they placed it down on the floor while I straightened it out. We made it as one huge blanket for everyone.

I placed down my supplies and colours.

"I'm bad at art." I mention and they all hid their smiles as they sat down.
"I'll help then." Jimin said as he sat down beside me. I gulped nervously as now I knew he finally spoke to me. I put on my poker face and smiled at him.

Don't make me blush.

"You're bad at art as well Jimin, let me help." Jungkook came closer and sat in front of me. Jimin looked at him sharply and started to speak again.
"Yeah, that why I'm going to help her so we both can make terrible ones." He said back and scattered the colours in the middle so everyone can get them.

My eyes dragged from one direction to another each time one tried to speak. I held my breath in embarrassment.

"I-I'll do it by myself, I never said I needed help." I finally said, disappointed with myself and my choice but I could see a little fight forming. Just by watching Jimin's eyes, I saw it, saw anger or should I say. Jealousy.
I picked up the black and started to draw on the blank face of the lantern. Jungkook nodded, understanding I was getting uncomfortable in the middle and went over to the others. Now it was only me and Jimin beside each other as we focused on the task.

It felt awkward yet comforting. Being alone with him was a feeling I never thought I would feel so strong, like my senses boiled in a good way. A way I felt attracted to him and didn't want to look away. A way that I always feel comfortable beside him even if there was something wrong. Probably because I feel protected. I feel like he is always there watching me when he's not.

Then, Jimin nudged me. I came out of my thoughts and started drawing more, pretending I wasn't thinking about him.

"What are you drawing?" I say while looking over his shoulder.
"A half moon, you?"
"Nooo.. Did you copy me?" I say teasingly as I show him my half moon.
"Maybe, unless it was fate."

'Mate'

That thought finally came back as he said fate. I showed him my lantern and he smiled. I looked away for couple of second and started to draw again, adding trees. I placed the black down and grabbed the grey, giving some trees a light outline. While I was focused on the lantern, many thoughts started to crowd my mind that I felt like I was in my own world.

'Luna'
'Mate'
'Chanyeol's friend'

Could this nightmare be a warning?

It only took a couple of seconds for Jimin to notice me zoning out so he nudged me again.

"Mate" I said out loud by accident but it was still quiet. Jimin nudged me once more and I came out of the thoughts to notice his hand in mine. I quickly took it out, surprised by his actions. "Jimin, wh-"
"You know the mate thing is important to us wolves... what where you thinking about?"  I started to stutter out random words as I totally forgot that wolves have great hearing and that he's part one. I'll have to lie, I don't want him to start worrying.

Truth is, I'm bad at lying.

"N-nothing.." I finally say but he grabs my hand again and starts to speak quietly.
"I have a feeling I know what you are thinking."
"Wait what?"

Please don't say you know it. It's a nightmare for me so I don't want you to have it as well.

"You are wondering why we are mates."

This time, both of my eyes rose wider then ever.

He got it wrong but..

Are we actually mates? How long has he known about this? But the thing which I do want to know now is what he just said.

I'm human while he is half human, half wolf. I would say werewolf but I seems that he can change whenever he wants. He was probably born like this but that's even more confusing by thinking how those type of genetics happened.

Do I have some of those genetics?

Jimin chuckles and I remembered I'm still staring right at him. He grabbed my other hand and I didn't stop looking at him.

Like I said, I feel protected beside him. I feel loved.

"Humans have soulmates, so because I still have human genes, I can still get someone like you. It's more rare so you are very lucky."
"And you can sense it? For how long?"
"When we first made eye contact in class. The day I asked for calculators and you couldn't stop looking. That was because your heart knew we were connected and by then, I knew I had to slowly get closer to you but I guess you made the first move."

I chuckle as I heard how we have been connected all this time.

"I have a question then, what about when people get crushes?"
"That's when the heart is bored and starts playing with you to make you think you are meant to be together. Sometimes it is true but most times it's fake."

I couldn't believe how much he knew about these topics and I've heard nothing like this. Slowly, I took my hands out of his and took the dark blue marker on the floor to colour in more. We both took deep breaths in sink and carried on with the task with some conversations and laughs.

I made sure the night sky on my lantern was a galaxy. The dark blue and purple blended in beside the half moon and the shadows of the trees. Then, I added mini mountains around it as I twisted the lantern around. It turned out to be very pretty and I was pleased with myself for making a masterpiece with my little skill and knowledge of art.

I looked around, watching everyone focus on their designs as I finally finish it. It has already been a good 3 hours and my hand was aching so much. I shook it and threw the colour marker on the floor and grabbed a white for the final touches. The stars.

"Done.. finally!" I take one huge breath and threw myself down to lie down on the picnic blanket I was on. Lazily, I started to crack my knuckles to make them feel better after 3 hours none stop drawing.

"And I thought you said you were bad at art." I got up from lying down and looked at Jimin who just spoke.
"I am."
"Yours is better than mine." He pouted and I picked up his lantern from in front of him and turned it around.
"I swear yours looks just like mine." A little chuckle left his mouth and I sighed at him cheekily, then rolling my eyes. He slapped me gently and started to laugh even more as I placed his beside mine.

"You copied me!" He threw himself on the floor while laughing out loud by watching my face light up red in annoyance. I looked at him and smiled at his humour.

His eyes disappeared in his smile and his face started to rose up. I whispered under my breath 'cute', still watching him as I finally give in. Holding in a laugh was too hard when you have a small Jimin laughing his heart out.

"Okay everyone! You should all be finished by now, if you aren't, you have a choice to carry on or do the scavenger hunt." The teacher called out and everyone cheered loudly when we heard the hunt was next. "We have given each group a colour and somewhere in the woods will be 5 flags with that colour. Look high and low and work as a team. Now we will tell you your colour and stay in the borders."

I turned to see Jimin finally up. He bit his lip to hide in his laughter and I hid my mouth with my hand before I start to giggle.

"We will win, this game is so easy." Taehyung said and we all looked at him as he got up.
"Are we all doing it or are some of you going to back out?" I say.
"I did want to finish this but a scavenger hunt seems fun!" Jungkook got up and high fived Taehyung.

The teacher then came to us.
"Yours is.." She looked at the clipboard and looked down it. "Purple."

We all nodded and the teacher went to the next group.

"We've got this in the bag." Jin mentioned confidently and we all got up, waiting for the teachers signals for it to start.

The teachers still weren't finished so we ended up warming up and stretching as we got bored until they finally got out a megaphone. I let out a sarcastic 'wow' seeing how much the teachers put into this.

The hunt was about to happen.
