Unlike other times that Jin takes his brothers to their classes, it's always been Jin, Jimin, Jungkook, and Namjoon. However, he had two extra guests. Namjoon decided to bring his half brother Hoseok and his cousin Taehyung for the ride, making Jin's car a little cramped.

Jimin and Jungkook sat in the back, Taehyung sat in between them and Hoseok sat on the floor, Namjoon of course sits in front holding hands with his mate. They know that it isn't safe, but who cares when it's a small town?

Taehyung knew he had a weird, strong connection to Jungkook. He couldn't quite place the feeling, but he knew something was there. Jimin clears his throat and smiles at the younger boy, "What do you think we're doing in math today?"

Taehyung arches his eyebrow, "What?"

Jimin frowns, "We're in the same math class. And history... And music appreciation... And lunch."

Taehyung arches his eyebrow again, "Really? What grade are you in?"

"I'm a junior Taehyung, we literally sit right by each other in each of these classes? You don't remember me? Jimin?"

Taehyung gives him a blank look before gasping, "Are you the one they call Christian ChimChim?!"

Jimin groans. It was a stupid nickname he tried to get people to call him when he was younger, and ended up doing something he regrets the most: he went through his first heat at school.

His mother told him he had to stay home from school since everyone but Jimin could tell he was in heat, but the younger wouldn't listen and went to school anyway. He ended up going into heat when he was heading to class, and so many unmated alphas wanted him. All he can remember is laying on the floor, screaming and begging someone to stop the pain from the heat.

He winces, "Yeah, that was me."

Taehyung laughs, "I can't believe it! I remember it like it was yesterday, even though it was four years ago. My brother almost lost his cool and knotted you in the middle of the hallway!"

"Hey, do everyone a favor and leave my brother alone. It wasn't his fault he went through heat in the middle of school!" Jungkook exclaims and hits Taehyung's shoulder.

Taehyung growls, and scoots closer to Jungkook, "What was that pretty boy?"

Jungkook audible gulped and instinctively cowards away from the Alpha. But Jimin wouldn't let that happen. Before the oldest of the three could do anything, Namjoon looks back and barks, "Tae! Leave them be."

Taehyung snorts and looks away, not before catching a glimpse at Jungkook once more and felt that string in his heart snap taunt. He stares at the boy, before his lip curls in a snarl and he leans closer, gripping Jungkook's arm in a tight grip, "Mate."

Jimin smacks Taehyung's arm, trying to pull him off his brother, but Taehyung growls, "Mate."

Hoseok breaks them free, squirming his way in between the mates before Taehyung does something stupid, like marking his mate in a cramped car and causing pain to Jungkook. Jungkook cowers into Jimin, whimpering at his bruised wrist as he holds it close to him. Only one though circled his mind as he locks eyes with his pissed off mate that is scaring him.

They are mates.

Jungkook had one hell of a day, if he does say so himself. He tried avoiding Taehyung like the plague, until around lunch time.

He told Jimin about his plans for ditching the rest of the day before their first class, and made sure he was alone before he went to his locker to pack his things.

However, once he shut his locker door, he felt hands snake around his waist and screams. He turns to hit whoever is touching him, when he sees a smirk from Taehyung.

He groans and pushes Taehyung away, or tries to before the older growls and pushes him against the locker. He stares into Jungkook's eyes, "Why are you avoiding me?"

Jungkook snorts, "You literally almost attacked me this morning! You made fun of my brother on top of that! You're nothing but an arrogant asshole who cares only for himself!"

"It wasn't my fault! I thought he would've thought it was funny by now!" Taehyung exclaims and raises his arms up in defense.

"Well not when people only remember that nickname because of that incident," Jungkook snaps, his Omega yellow eyes flashing before he takes a deep breath and they're back to brown, "Look, just forget for now that I'm your mate and let me go home okay?"

"You're going home? But babe, it's only eleven thirty," Taehyung says.

Jungkook rolls his eyes, "I know that, I was trying to avoid you but it didn't work so I'm going home to work on my studies."

"Oh my mate is smart, I like it."

Jungkook snorts, pushing past Taehyung and heads for the doors. Once he gets there, Taehyung wraps an arm around his waist, "There's no way I'm letting you go pretty boy. You know what kind of danger you could be in if you walk home alone?"

"I would prefer walking home alone than with you any day," Jungkook spat.

"My mate is also feisty. That could be a benefit," Taehyung winks at the now blushing male, chuckling at the dark hue across his cheekbones.

"Tae, leave him be seriously," Hoseok says as he crosses his arms.

Taehyung looks at Hoseok, "Mind your own business and call your mate Hobi. She should be on lunch now anyway."

Hoseok narrows his eyes, but backs away with his phone already in his hand. Taehyung smirks, then turns to Jungkook, "So, shall we?"

Jungkook snorts, "I'm going alone, okay? You're not coming with me."

Taehyung was ready to argue until he seen a familiar car pull up, Jin's car. Jungkook smirks before skipping off to Jin's car and plopping down in the front seat. Once he's buckled in, he looks out the window at Taehyung, and with a sly wink he blows a kiss to the older.

Taehyung chuckles and moves away from the school doors, heading back to the cafeteria to find his next victim of the day. He spots him sitting with a girl, a girl with bright red hair, purposely dyed, and they were laughing.

He smiles and walks over, "Jimin?"

Jimin looks up, and so does his friend. She narrows her eyes and scoots practically closer to Jimin, "What do you want?"

His eyebrows raise in surprise, the girl was totally an Omega, but her actions and tone of voice sounded like an Alpha. One can also tell that she's an American, once a natural red head, for her eyes and her face didn't look Korean. She was beautiful, but his mate holds the most beauty.

He sits at the table, the girl's eyes never leaving him as he smiles at the two, "Jimin, I wanted to come over and apologize."

Jimin's eyes widen before he turns to the girl, "Livie can you give us a minute?"

She sets her jaw, but obeys the Omega as she stands, "Link me if you need help."

He nods and watches as she's a good few feet away before turning to Taehyung, "What were you saying?"

"Who is she?" Taehyung asks as he watches her walk over to a table where a man, who was also American, with blonde hair and blue eyes look over and watch the table like hawks.

"She's my best friend, she moved here from America when she was only ten and we've been friends since. The man she's with is her mate, who moved here two years ago from America as well. I'll ask again Taehyung, what do you want?"

He bites his lip, "I wanted to apologise for this morning. The subject of your incident is a little touchy and sometimes I can't control my mouth. So, I'm terribly sorry for embarrassing you and insulting you."

Jimin smiles, "Apology accepted, just don't fuck up again."

Taehyung laughs, and Jimin waves over to the girl and her mate. They walk over, the mate had his hands around her waist as she leads them to the table. Once they sit, the girl and her mate had their eyes on Taehyung. The man was older, possibly in Namjoon and Hoseok's class, "You can leave now."

His voice. If he wasn't an Alpha, Taehyung would've been a puddle instantly. The girl smirks and looks up kisses the spot on his neck, right under his jaw. He must be a more powerful Alpha.

Jimin giggles, "Guys he's fine. He just came over to apologise."

The Alpha man sets his jaw, but reaches a hand out to the younger, "Alexander Martin."

The girl laces her hands with Alexander's handsand turns to Taehyung, "Livonia Wilton. Pleasure to meet you," she sends a smile and Taehyung had to take a step back. She had such a kind smile for a girl who came off cold at first.

He smiles back, talking to them like they were friends for a while. Maybe he finally made some friends he can tell his brothers about.
