d-1: ignore hyung for the rest of the day ;) gO0dlUcKkKkK~~~

jungkook's still staring at the message his bestfriend sent him on his way to school, as if staring at it would somehow mix the words and change it into something else.

he cant believe that taehyung would make him do something like this, especially because tae knows of what happened to jungkook yesterday, when he was at yoongi's house.

even though it's a sunday, jungkook had to go to school. he's one of the chosen junior students who will be performing for their school's anniversary week. he doesnt even know why he was chosen, but he somehow feels that taehyung and the others have something to do with this, especially because they know that jungkook loves dancing.

jungkook got off of the city bus and trudged his way to school, his backpack slinging on his right shoulder. once he got inside their school, he immediately went to the auditorium, where the assembly will be held for all the performers of all levels.

fortunately, taehyung and bambam will be performing, too. taehyung would be singing in a group ballad, and bambam will sing in a duet. jungkook saw baekhyun at the halls earlier, too, but he wouldnt be performing and instead be one of the emcees of the program.

taehyung and bambam werent in the auditorium, so jungkook went to find a place for himself. he saw a table at the far corner and got on it immediately and made himself comfortable. good thing, he brought his laptop with him. that way, he has something that could distract him from yoongi.

true enough, once he was in the middle of playing assassin's creed revelation, the seniors came in, including yoongi's group. yoongi smiled as he saw jungkook and was about to approach him when hoseok ran past him and lunged himself at the younger, making yoongi laugh and shake his head.

"hello, dongsaeng-ie!!! did you miss hyungie???" hoseok asked in an aegyo tone. jungkook didnt respond and continued playing.

that made hoseok pout. "yah, kookie-ah!!! notice meeeee~~~"

namjoon tried pulling hoseok off of the boy. "leave him be, he's busy..."

yoongi tried peeking from behind but because jungkook's taller, he had to tiptoe so he could place his chin on jungkook's shoulder and look at what he's doing. "i didnt know you're into these games, kook. is it good?"

jungkook bit his lip so he wouldn't accidentally slip out a word. he just furrowed his browd and concentrated on the game as he's close to the part where he needs to beat the boss.

yoongi raised a brow at jungkook and then turned to jin, who just shrugged at him. he continued watching, not removing his chin from his shoulder.

a few minutes after, taehyung arrived and went straight to jungkook, but he was taken aback at the sight of the seniors flocking around his friend, especially hoseok.

he cleared his throat and put on an emotionless face and approached them. jin noticed the younger and he smiled at him.

"oh, taehyung-ah! you're going to perform too?"

tae just nodded and nudged jungkook, who just looked up and glared at him.

'i hate you so much', jungkook mouthed before looking back at his game. tae just rolled his eyes and nudged the other again.

"what?" jungkook said in an annoyed tone that made the others raise a brow at each other.

'did they fight?' namjoon mouthed at yoongi, who just shrugged and watched the two.

"performers for the hiphop dance are called to proceed at the left wing practice room." tae said before picking up jungkook's bag from the floor and holding it out.

jungkook sighed in annoyance (but also more of a relief because boy, it was so hard avoiding yoongi especially if he's being cute and clingy) and closed his laptop shut before hopping off of the table and grabbing his bag from taehyung.

"jinjja?! so we're all in the hiphop dance then?" hoseok exclaimed and clapped his hands in excitement.

jungkook nervously swallowed. "all?" he mumbled and his face drained out of color as he realized what that means.

jungkook and yoongi will be practicing together for the day.

hoseok threw an arm around jungkook as they walk to the other side of the building since they're at the right wing. the other three, namely yoongi, namjoon, and jin, walked behind them.

once they got to the said auditorium, jungkook grabbed his earphones from his bag and popped it in his ears and started warming up and stretching, keeping himself preoccupied. yoongi just raised a brow at how jungkook's behaving. the younger would usually jump at him or even smile, but now, he's been avoiding yoongi.

out of the corner of jungkook's eyes, he secretly watches yoongi interact with the others and move around. how he wish he can talk to yoongi right now, but no because he somehow believes that this fourteen days thingy he's doing is real, so he does his best to do the steps accompanied by it.

half an hour later, the choreographer arrived. he gathered everyone in a circle and introduced himself as keone. he discussed with the group the theme of their dance. the song is a very upbeat, powerful, and kind of eccentric, so he told them that the steps would be the same, as to much the intensity of the song. upon hearing that, namjoon and jin sighed in defeat. they can dance, but it would take them long to actually get the steps perfect and polished. hoseok was grinning the whole time, hell, that boy is like the main epitome of dancing. however, yoongi just groaned. he can dance, he's good, but he's not a fan of sweat, fatigue, exhaustion, and moving around.

suddenly, the door of the auditorium burst open, and a rose pink haired boy emerged. trails of sweat ran down from his forehead down to the side of his face as he ran in and bowed his head to apologize to the choreographer.

keone told him that it's okay and gestured for him to come closer. "everyone, i would like you to meet my assistant choreographer..."

"...park jimin..."

jimin bowed his head. "hello, im park jimin. nice to meet you all."

"so now that jimin is here, we'll be dividing you all into two groups. everyone who's good at dancing, please go to this side. to those who can dance but is admittedly not good at it, please go to the other side." keone said and everyone walked off to whichever side they need to be.

jungkook and hoseok walked to the right side, where the good dancers are, while yoongi and the two went to the other side.

jimin counted off everyone at the right side before proceeding to the other side. when he saw yoongi standing beside jin and namjoon, he raised a brow.

"yah hyung, why are you here?" jimin said.

yoongi rolled his eyes. "dance isnt my forte so shut up."

jimin grabbed yoongi's hand and dragged the helpless boy to jungkook's side. "you belong to this side, dont deny it. ive known you for yeard and i know what i know." jimin said before walking to the front.

jungkook raised a brow at the pink haired guy. 'he knows yoongi-hyung?' he wondered.

something inside jungkook tugged at his heart, hard. he somehow felt scared, intimidated, threatened even. there's something about jimin that made jungkook uneasy.

jimin was assigned to handle jungkook's group, while the main choreographer focused on the others. jungkook wanted to know how good this jimin is, especially in dancing.

'if he's an assistant, then that means he's pretty good?' jungkook thought.

"so i presume youve all been told about how the dance would go?" jimin asked and they answered with a nod. he grabbed his phone and played a video and showed it to the dancers.

"we'll be doing bangtan sonyeondan's choreography. theyre one of the top boy groups all over the world, and because keone-hyung was the one who choreographed their song 'fire', that's what we'll be doing." jimin said as the others watched.

jungkook was impressed. the said group in the video has seven members, but even so, they managed to maximize the whole stage, not with their quantity, but with their steps and presence. the dance steps are fast and noticeably hard, but it was very clean, not a flaw was seen. instead of being nervous, it made jungkook excited. he loves dancing, and it's been a while since he performed.

after watching the video, jimin made them form three rows with four persons, and jungkook was placed at the back because of how tall he is. hoseok is in front of him, while yoongi, even though he's not the smallest and most especially not among the small ones, was placed in front.

jimin taught them the steps at the chorus part of the song, going slowly so everyone can catch up. jungkook is a fast learner, and by just watching the vid earlier, he somehow memorized almost half of the dance, so it wasnt hard for him.

hoseok was the same too, but because he knows the group who danced the song (let's just say he's kind of a fan), he knows every step by heart and even taught jungkook some of it.

however, jungkook cant focus well. well, who would?

especially if jimin is too close to yoongi, their chests almost touching. yoongi seem to not mind, or maybe he's too focused on getting the footwork right. whenever he makes a mistake, jimin would laugh and embrace the older and tell him that it's okay. jungkook should be focusing, but he cant.

"no, no, no! you need to pull your elbow backwards and then forwards so you can slide your other arm up like thi—yah, jungkook! are you listening?!" hoseok cried out when he saw that jungkook's staring at nothing.

jungkook flinched and apologized before asking the older to repeat what he said again. he tried to take yoongi and jimin off of his mind for a while, but it was kinda hard.

jungkook managed to survive the first two hours of practice. they were given a breaktime for an hour. good thing, taehyung was kind enough to make lunch for him and jungkook, so he need not to go out and buy food. jin cooked for his friends, too, but it seems like yoongi wants something else.

"waaah, you have sushi?! can i have some???" yoongi immediately went to jimin and sat beside him, pointing at the food container. jimin grinned and pretended to think for a bit, wanting to tease yoongi.

"i dont know. im actually pretty hungry, so im not in the mood to share." jimin said as he stick his tongue out, making yoongi pout.

jungkook watched yoongi as he watched jimin pick up a sushi and bite the other end. however, jungkook didnt expect what happened next.

yoongi leaned in and grabbed the other side of the sushi and ate it. he flashed jimin a triumphant look and blew him a kiss.

"that's what you get for being such a tease..." yoongi said with a smirk.

"and that's what you get for being such a coward, jeon jungkook..." jungkook mumbled to himself and secretly wiped the tears that formed at the corner of his eyes.
