Friday, September 5th

Today was the first day for Y/N's and Jimin's project. For some reason, Y/N felt really jittery and excited as she began heading to school, taking the usual path while holding onto the straps of her backpack. She was a bit early to school, so she spent her time talking to Jihoon.

When the bell rang, they bid their goodbyes and both headed for their first classes which for Y/N was P.E. 

This week, Y/N had realized that she and Jimin have the same schedule and for every class, except for English, they sat together. Meanwhile, with Jihoon she only shared three classes, English, History, and Art, but she preferred this than nothing at all.

...

"Hello, class!" Mr. Lee greeted his class lively as he always would. "Today we are playing badminton, so please choose a partner and remember who your partner is because we are going to do this for our next class too. You have to form a team of two people, you and your partner. No groups of thee!" he warned, looking specifically at the three guys named, Namjoon, Seokjin and Hoseok before continuing his explanation.

 "Your team will get a number and another team's number, then you'll play against them. Once one of the two teams obtains 21 points, the game ends and that team has won. When the first match's over, you can just move on and play with another team. We'll keep on doing this until next class, so we can make sure that all teams had played together. Clear? Now, after choosing your partner, please write down both of your names on my laptop."

Mr. Lee set a two-minute timer and the gym bursted into loud jabber as people picked their partners. Y/N promptly turned her head towards Jimin, her doe eyes reminding him of apuppy as she stared at him, silently proposing to be together. 

He sighed at her adorable, large eyes and without saying anything, he grabbed her hand before walking towards Mr. Lee's laptop. "Partners?" he confirmed, already knowing the answer, but just making sure. Y/N nodded and Jimin typed down their names.

"Okay, now that everyone has written their names down, I'll tell you your numbers. Team 1 - Y/N and Jimin are going against Team 6 - Namjoon and Seokjin, you guys are playing at Net 1..." Mr. Lee announced, looking at the players that he had just mentioned before calling out the rest. 

Jimin and Y/N went to grab their rackets, snickering because they could choose whatever rackers they wanted since they were first. Jimin picked a blue and yellow racket, making sure that the black handle was intact and that it felt comfortable in his small hand. On the other hand, Y/N focused more on the colours and less how she felt about the feeling of the racket. She ended up picking a purple and almost plain one as she didn't like extreme designs. 

Holding hands was slowly becoming a habit of theirs as well as pretending that they didn't know because they were scared that the warmth would be gone. This applied to them as they made their way to Net 1, waiting for their opponents. "Jimin, I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you that I'm bad at badminton-"

"It's okay, I'm bad too. Let's not get upset if we lose..." Jimin cut off Y/N with a simper before she could accuse herself any further. Just at that moment, Seokjin and Namjoon approached them, not even bothering to hide their self-observed grins.

"Come on Jimin, you serve first!" Y/N said, passing him the shuttlecock. He caught it and gulped, feeling visibly nervous, Y/N gave him a thumbs up and he served. Despite all the effort that he had put into the serves, he missed both of them as they had landed outside of the court.

"What? Can't even do a decent serve? Monday you couldn't throw a ball and today you can't hit the shuttlecock with your racket?" Seokjin jeered, swaying his racket back and forth behind the shuttlecock as he aimed, preparing himself to serve. Namjoon tittered beside his friend, supporting his quote on quote 'savage' joke.

"Hey, you, Seokjin or whatever is your name... who the hell are you to disrespect someone like that? Why the hell are you so childish, aren't you 18, 19? Or are you attending the wrong class? Go back to kindergarten if you are going to act like this!" Y/N retorted, her eyebrows crashing into each other as her voice dropped two octaves down. Seokjin simply rolled his eyes as he huffed, swinging his racket and fillanlly allowing it to meet the shuttlecock.

Then it happened...

He miserably missed his serve, making Y/N and Jimin crow as if they were mad. "What a moron!" Y/N screeched, cackling uncontrollably as she held onto stomach with her right hand and Jimin's shoulder with her left one for support. Their stomachs churned and tightened from the laughter and once they thought they recovered from it, they continued their game.

After a while everyone was really into the game, both teams were a hundred percent concentrated. "Matchpoint!" Namjoon yelled as Y/N was about to serve. She then hit the ball, watching it as went over the net only to land outside the outlines of their court. "Yes! We won!" Namjoon shouted, high-fiving his teammate. 

Y/N felt abashed, but when she looked at Jimin, she found him smiling at her sweetly. "We did well!" he tributed before running off to their next direction, Net 7, against Team 2, Yoongi and Taehyung. "We must beat them!" Jimin whispered as they stood in their positions and she nodded in agreement. They high-fived each other as a small encouragement before the game and then the match started.

In the end, they ended up winning because of Jimin's perfect serve, that none of the opponents was able to catch. "Yay, we did it!" Y/N grinned at her partner as they placed their rackets back. Taehyung and Yoongi watched them walk away with sour faces as they gossiped about the two with Namjoon and Seokjin.

...

Once P.E was over, Jimin found himself waiting for Y/N outside the changing room, so they could head to their English classroom together. When she went out, she was surprised to figure that Jimin was waiting for her. "Wow! Jiminie! Were you waiting for me?" she teased, but he just started walking straight to their classroom, ignoring her whilst masking up his embarssment. "Hey! Wait up! I was kidding! Let's go together!"

Y/N ran up to him, circling her hand around the lower part of his bicep and walking as if they were walking down an aisle. Jimin couldn't hide the sugary smile that reached his eyes as they entered their classroom, filled with most of the students already. 

"Morning class!" the teacher greeted her students as she went inside of the room, placing her books down onto her desk. "Today we have to work in pairs, and you're not choosing your partner! First I'll be telling you your partners, then I'll tell you the directions, so, the first pair consists of An Y/N and Park Jihoon!" Ms. Kim announced before continuing on and on until Jimin's name reached Y/N's ears. "Park Jimin and Son Yoonseok, you guys are the last team!

"What you'll do is that, with your partner, you will have to write a script and read it out to the whole class. Of course, it has to be in English. The script can be pretty much anything, of course anything that is school-approriate and it's just an assignment to see what knowledge you have. So have fun! We'll be presenting the next time we have a lesson, so on Monday."

Y/N was happy to be partners with Jihoon, but for some reason, she really wished that she was with Jimin instead. Or at least, that some guy would have been his partner...

Oop-

"So, Y/N, are you good at English?" Jihoon beamed as came towards Y/N with his laptop, and she nodded, "Good," he grinned cheesily, "I will write the notes on my laptop and send them to you!" he suggested and she nodded once more, so they began working.

It was so fun to work with Jihoon, he made her cackle so hard and so often, Y/N roistered spending time with him. Sadly, their classtime passed by in flash as they were immersed into their own marriment of imagination. It had all ended way too quickly.

 After the class was dismissed, Jihoon and Y/N walked together to their next class, History. Y/N always found herself wondering whether she liked History or not. What made History even worse that she already found it, was the fact that she was sitting with Taehyung, Jihoon was sitting with the girl from her P.E class, Yoon Sora, and Jimin was sitting with Hoseok. At least Hoseok seemed way nicer compared to Seokjin, Namjoon, Yoongi and Taehyung, he even let Jimin switch seats with him so he could seat closer to her.

...

The bell rang, indicating It was finally lunch time. All the students hurriedly rushed out of their seats and made their way to the cafeteria. Everybody was eager to be at the begging of the long and dready cues to buy some food.

Y/N looked at Jihoon, it seemed as if he was going to eat with that Sora-girl and his friends as he stood up and laughed while talking to them. She did feel a bit upset that yesterday she spent the whole day with him, but today he decided to go off with them. However, the thought of her and Jimin going to the school garden and eating there together, excited her a lot. 

"Jimin, let's eat lunch together!" Y/N invited him as she watched him taking out his water bottle from his backpack.

"No, thanks, Y/N. I'm good on my own..." Jimin looked down as he spoke and what he said made her kind of angry. They were friends after all! She wouldn't take no as an answer, so she grabbed his wrist and dragged him to the cafeteria. 

After they've bought some food, they headed for the school garden.

"Y/N, why are you doing this?" Jimin inquired before he could unwrap his sandwich, she looked up at him, not really understanding his question. "I mean why are you eating with me? Why did you help me in P.E? Why are you trying to be friends with me? Is it because Jihoon is hanging out with Sora today? Don't mind that idiot he's a really social-" 

Y/N gulped down her sandwich and answered Jimin, sounding furious. "Jimin! How could you think like that? Do you think I'm trying to be convenient? When Jihoon isn't there I'm replacing him with you?" she ranted, her offended look making Jimin feel somewhat guilty.

"No, Y/N! That's not what I meant..." he protested, only to be interrupted by Y/N's stern words once again.

"Then!?" she urged and gulped some water before continuing, so she wouldn't embarss herself while speaking by choking. "Jimin, I already told on Monday why I'm doing all this! Yeah, it's true that today I sat with you because I saw that Jihoon was busy. To be honest, I want to sit with the both of you, but how when the two of you won't even look at each other? I don't want you two to think I'm replacing or using you when the other is unavailable..."

Silence. Jimin was processing Y/N's words as she just looked down, feeling nervous. "Why aren't you saying anything? I feel like I talked too much...." Y/N mumbled whilst fiddling with her index fingers. "And whose house are we going to today?"

"I'm sorry, Y/N, please don't be mad at me! You know I have a hard time with trusting people, I am already feeling weird because I gave in so easily with you... now I am starting to wonder if I am really as restricted as everyone says or am I easy, but lonely?" 

"Right... sorry, trust me, I feel the same. I mean, I never really thought I had 'trust issues', I just didn't want anyone to know about my business because I am scared of their reaction. And also because I don't want to reminisc those memories... I am sorry..."

 "Me too, I apologize as well... and today Jihoon's friends are coming over, you know, Taehyung, Yoongi, and blah, blah, blah, so if you don't mind, I would like to come to your house!" Jimin rolled his eyes, brigtening up the formerly heavy mood. Y/N cracked a loud crow at Jimin's adorable 'blah, blah, blah'.

"Sure, We should plan today." she agreed, giving Jimin a thumbs-up.

"Yeah! Let's describe how they look and give the characters personality traits. Then we can make a basic plan of all the events in the story, and if possible we could set up some goals for the number of pages that we want to write." 

"Sounds perfect!" Y/N spoke with excitement as they made their way to put the trays back and throw the trash. The second-last class for them was Health, so Jimin and Y/N got their books and headed to the classroom.
