Jennie's  P.O.V

Right now I am with my friends telling them the whole story, they comforted me and suggested that we should do something about that nerd so she won't come in our way.

So currently, we were planning about how to get rid of her. Seriously, I didn't know that such a worthless and hideous girl could get his attention, he has such bad taste in girls.

But I'll change that.

I was in my class while our teacher kept blabbering about the subject he was teaching us. I was just planning on how to get rid of that nerd so Jimin could be mine.

I smirked mentally at that thought, resting my elbow on the table then placed my face on my palm and started daydreaming about me and Jimin. I spent my other classes daydreaming as well.

Finally, the bell rang meaning the lunch break has started. I walked up to the door and saw that my friends were already standing there waiting for me. I smiled seeing them and they also returned the smile, we walked through the hallway, and then I saw someone which made me smirk.

That bitch!

Rosé was standing in the hallway beside the wall, leaning against it while finding something in her bag. I nudged my friends and pointed towards her, they also smirked and we started walking up to her. I grabbed her arm and pushed her against the wall.

She gasped, "What the hell Ji–Jennie?" She narrowed her eyes at me.

"D-Do you want something?" I nodded, "Yes, give me back my Jimin." She frowned and blinked her eyes in confusion. "I don't know what are you talk–"

Slap!

She held her right cheek and looked at me with shock. I was getting annoyed just by looking at her face, trying to act like she doesn't know anything but it's all her fault.

"Just shut up! you can't fool me, what do you think of yourself, huh?!" I gritted. She was still holding that confused stare which only irritated me even more.

I looked at her with disgust, "Tell me how did you seduce him, huh?! You are just an ugly, pathetic girl who doesn't know her place. Why was such a waste like you even born?!" I spatted angrily and she looks at me with shock and hurt.

"But what did I–"

Slap!

She just doesn't know how to shut that ugly mouth of her. She again held her cheek and looked up at me with teary eyes then looked down.

I just rolled my eyes then harshly grabbed her chin because she was looking down, "Listen here, nerd! if I ever see you around Jimin, you're as good as dead. I don't like sharing what's mine, got it!" I gritted then harshly let go of her chin and now for the final lesson so she'll understand whom she's messing with.

I raised my hand to slap her already red cheek again.

Suddenly, someone grabbed my wrist to prevent me from hitting her and when I followed the hand of the owner, it turns out to be the other nerd.

Kim Taehyung.

He was not showing any expression and his grip wasn't also tight.

A nerd saving another nerd, how cute.

I couldn't help but cringe.

I tried to wriggle my wrist out of his clasp but to no avail. "Let go of me!" I urged, getting annoyed while glaring at him but he was still giving me that blank face, and his grip remained firm.

Suddenly, he pulled me back from the nerd then let go of my wrist, instead, he grabbed her wrist and tugged her out of here leaving me and my friends dumbfounded. We looked at each other then in the direction they left.

This time I'll let you go but if I see you near Jimin again, you'll get it from me, nerd!

I attended all of my classes annoyingly while planning how to get Jimin's attention. All the classes ended and now I really wanted to go home and rant at Jisoo.

She knew about my crush on Jimin and I've also told her about the nerd, but not as a good student instead, as a bully and I was her victim because she wants my Jimin.

Well, the last part is true.

She always supports me and also hates Rosé. We both hate the same person.

That's why she's the best.

The school was over and now I can go home. I bid goodbye to my friends then walked out of the school. Finally, my driver arrived and I couldn't wait to meet Jisoo.

When I reached home, I quickly hopped out of the car and made my way inside the house while calling out for Jisoo.

I was smiling but my smile faded when I saw Jisoo pacing back and forth in the living room while massaging her temples, then my eyes caught sight of a suitcase beside the couch.

Is she going somewhere?

I think she noticed my presence and when she looked up, her eyes were filled with tears.

She quickly ran towards me and hugged me while I was frozen at my place. After gaining my composure, I hugged her back. I was literally confused and shocked at her behavior, I calmly spoke, totally forgetting about my worries, "Jisoo-ah, what happened?"

_________________________________

We were now sitting on the couch and I was comforting her while she sobbed. She told me that her mother is getting sick day by day and there is no one to take care of her, her father had left them for another woman while she was very young.

Bastard.

I have always sympathized with her yet she has always stayed strong like nothing is wrong with her life. "You should go," I spoke while patting her back.

She's looking at me with red, puffy eyes, "But what about you?" She asked and I smiled at her concern, "I'm not a kid, I can take care of myself besides your mother needs you more than me, and don't worry about my parents and money, I got your back, buddy." She smiled with more tears forming in her eyes and I quickly hugged her.

Rosé P.O.V.

Honestly, I don't know what is going on. First, Jennie just came out of nowhere then started accusing and slapping me. Now, I'm being dragged by Taehyung who just came out of nowhere and I don't know where the hell we are going. He kept dragging me while tightly gripping my wrist.

It really hurts.

We arrived at the library and fortunately, no one was there. He let go of my wrist and I rubbed it to lessen the pain. Now we were standing awkwardly in silence. He cleared his throat and I look up at him and he looking was somewhere else, avoiding eye contact.

I think he's being shy.

It made me smile, totally forgetting about my aching cheek and wrist.

"T-Thank you for saving me there." He just nods in reply, still not looking at me. "Taehyung..." I called out his name and finally, he looked at me but with a blank stare and hummed in response.

Now he's acting as nothing occurred a while ago.

"C-Can you meet me after the dismissal, at the cafe near our school? I-I want to give you a treat as gratitude for always helping me."

To know why are you playing with my feelings.

I really wanted to say that out loud but decided against it and save it for later.

He looked a bit surprised by my offer but that expression was gone in a matter of seconds, replaced with his infamous blank expression.

He opened his mouth to say something but suddenly the bell rang and I quickly excused, "Ah, I have to go! See you after school." Before he could say anything, I left.

I entered my class and sat in my usual seat. I was thinking about the conversation I and Taehyung had when suddenly, someone jumps on the seat beside me which startles me. I ignored him while crossing my arms and looking ahead.

He was looking intensely at my right cheek. He did something which made me flinch from the pain. He gently caresses my cheek and it was kinda soothing. I slapped his hand away from my cheek and glared at him but he didn't seem to be phased by it.

"What happened to your cheek?" I didn't spare him a glance and mumbled, "Nothing..."

"Tell me what happened?" He grabbed my wrist and again asked in a serious tone. I finally look at him then glared at him, "Why do you care, huh?! And why are you suddenly being so nice to me? Shouldn't you be happy to see me in pain!" I snapped. His grip loosened on my wrist and I quickly yanked my hand away from him.

Why are you such a bipolar jerk?

I really wanted to yell at him that it's his fault, all of this is his fault. Because of him I always get detention, I nearly lost my job and now Jennie started to accuse me and this happened.

Could my life get any worse?

Today all my classes went peacefully because Jimin didn't say anything but the strange thing was, he didn't attend the last class.

Maybe he's skipping the class.

What can I expect from this jerk, but what if he's ill that's why he is skipping and he also wasn't even bothering me.

Why the hell am I even thinking about him?

I shook my head before I start to cringe at my own thoughts. I tried to focus on looking forward to meeting Taehyung. I looked at the seat beside me then sighed, I internally groaned because Jimin is invading my thoughts. I don't know why this is happening but maybe because now I'm so used to his bugging me.

Yeah, that's it.

Finally, the class was over and now I can meet Taehyung. I quickly packed my bag then skipped my way out of school. I reach the cafe and order two cups of coffee.

Soon the coffee arrived and I started drinking my coffee while looking around but there was no sign of him.

Maybe I should have listened to him at that time. Maybe he is busy.

I was lost in my thoughts when suddenly, someone sat in front of me and that's when I came back to reality.

I smiled looking at him "Taehyung, you came!" He mumbled it was audible enough for me to hear, "As you left me a choice." I feel bad for forcing him but what can I do, this boy is making me crazy because one moment he is so nice and the second moment he acts like he doesn't even know me.

How can I forget yesterday's incident, the way he was looking at Jennie. I want to confirm his feeling towards me. Before I could say something, he sighed, "Look, I know you're confused and I know why you called me here but first, let me clear something to you," I nodded, eager to know.

"Before you get the wrong idea let me make it clear to you...I don't like you." Here goes my heart being broken.

What was I even thinking, who would like someone like me?

"Then w-why do you always help me?" I asked, still in shock. He sighed and runs a hand through his hair. "That pabo always asks me to help you, he is just being a coward but what can I say—he's my best friend."

"W-Who?" I asked, still shocked at the fact that someone secretly cares about me. His answer made me even more shocked, my eyes widened and my jaw dropped.

"Jimin-ie pabo."
