______________________________
The sky is a beautiful color of blue and a hue of pink as the sun was setting in the distance. Min Yoongi, a freshly turned 19 year old has his hands tucked under his chin as he stared out the window of the car. The radio was playing a ballad song that matched his current glum mood. His parents, were excitedly talking amongst themselves in the driver and passenger seats.
The drive to their new home in Seoul South Korea was closer and closer. Which Yoongi was thankful he could soon rest from the long flight from America. But, overall he was not happy with his move here. Leaving all that he knew which were his friends, his boyfriend Noah, and being forced to adjust to a new country was a lot for him. Although he is ethnically Korean, he was only use to American culture.
Technically Yoongi was born in South Korea. But his parents had moved to America when he was only 6 month's old. Reasons for that was because Yoongi's father is a business man that works for a well known tech company. They often have him traveling. He was transferred to America when Yoongi just just a baby and took his family with him.
Yoongi grew up with Korean influences at home; which was the language and food. But everything else about him was completely Americanized and he was scared on how he would fit in with the Korean kids here. From what he knew, the school system was more intense here. Yoongi was not the type of person to study hard. He was an average graded student. He didn't want to be pressured into being perfect. His parents were thankfully not strict with him when it came to this matter.
But the overall reason to why Yoongi didn't want to leave America, is because he's simply an introvert. It sounds silly but...he's an introvert, and it took him alot of time to make friends. It took him a majority of his childhood to overcome his fears of befriending others and adapting to new environments.
All that work of building his small friend group back home has now been eradicated. And so today, The anxiety and on top of the the anger of moving has made him cold and gloomy. Since this is his last year of High School, he plans on keeping to himself. What was the point of making friends?
"Yoongi dear, can you please help with the bags" his mother spoke to him
Yoongi snapped out of his day dream, not realizing that he was at his new home. His father had parked the car at their outdoor parking lot for his building complex. Yes their home is a large story apartment building that houses many families. Most Korean families lived in decent apartment buildings being that the goal was to have everything condensed and stacked.
"Sorry" Yoongi mumbles getting out the car and taking some luggage from the trunk
The family made their way upstairs to their new home. Some of Yoongi's relatives already in Korea helped prepare for their move. They helped them find the house being that they couldn't be their physically during house searching. Then, they also helped furnished the apartment. Yoongi's father had sold a lot of their old belongings and furniture they couldn't take with them to Korea. The family literally has to start a new.
"Yoongi you'll love it! You'll finally have a big enough bedroom. Just think, before, your bedroom was practically a closet! But we made sure the bedrooms were the perfect size for your comfortability" Yoongi's mother bragged enthusiastically as they got into the elevator
Yoongi just sighs "Oh....gee thanks" he says dryly
"Yoongi..." His father said in a warning tone "At least try to like it. We're doing our best to take your comfort into consideration"
Yoongi scoffed "Consideration? Yeah right" He mumbles under his breath as the elevator dinged to their floor
Yoongi's father was about to reprimand his son but his mother stopped her husband. She just shakes her head and tells him to let Yoongi be for now. The family then finds their apartment number, which is 505. Yoongi's mother enter the padlock code and they all enter and took their shoes off at the entrance.
The apartment was decorated with nude colors and whites mostly. There was a big family couch that was a tan color in the living room. Then there was a giant window that also lead the to Veranda which held their washing machine and also an area to hang laundry. Or just simply a little sitting area for fresh air. Then, there was a fluffy white rug between the L shaped couch and big flat screen television on a wide wooden television stand.
To the opposite of the living room was the open kitchen that has marble and gray colored counters. The appliances were steel, like the oven and the refrigerator. The kitchen cabinets were also grey theme. There was also a sleek black wooden table that also has 6 wooden chairs surrounding it. Then of course in between the kitchen and the living room was the mini hallway that lead to Yoongi's bedroom, his parents' bedroom, and the bathroom.
"Yoongi dear, we're gonna order dinner. Anything you want to eat?" His mother said walking further into the house to wheel her suitcase in
"Whatever you want" He said shrugging his shoulders walking to his room
He already had an idea of which room was his because his parents room was the biggest and sported a Queen sized bed and multiple storage units. Meanwhile, Yoongi's bedroom was across from theirs and only had a full sized bed, a desk, two night stands, and his closet was an in-wall closet. His mother was right about it being a bit bigger than his old room.
Whoever came to furnish their apartment had also put sheets and blankets on Yoongi's bed already. His bed set color was dark blue and white . His desk was black and has a lamp on it. The color of his window curtains were also dark blue. He also has a cozy grayish rug on the floor as well.
"It's really nice right?" Yoongi's mother said looking in from the door entrance "Your aunt Soohee went a bit overboard. She's excited we're here"
"It's whatever" Yoongi mumbled and started unpacking his giant suitcase
"Look, I know it seems overwhelming at the moment...but having new beginnings aren't always bad. I mean, you loved it whenever we visited Korea during the summer"
"That was different" Yoongi said staring at his packed toiletries "Mom, can you just...leave me alone for a while. I'm jetlagged and just want to sleep"
She gave her son a sad smile and nodded. "Okay baby. Come to us if you need anything" and then closed the door
Yoongi began to unpack most of his things. Even though his father sold most of their belongings, they did manage to ship out some of their stuff to their new address. Yoongi just wanted to get his mind off of the saddened look of his boyfriend Noah and the rest of his friends when he told them he'll be moving to Korea.
He had big plans with his boyfriend. He wanted to move to Los Angeles with his boyfriend that has dreams of becoming a actor. Yoongi wanted to support him in that dream. His family was previously living in California, so the drive from LA to his hometown wouldn't be too far if they had left.
He had plans on actually pursuing music as well. He had just gotten into at home producing and wanted to pursue it as a profession after college. The best place to become big was Hollywood. But, all of that was disrupted by this move. He would miss his boyfriend a lot especially. Noah was his first love. Yoongi believes that Noah is his only love. They had been dating since he was a Freshman in high school.
Their relationship started off strong and was based purely on emotional than physical attraction. Being that Yoongi is part of the 15% male human population that can become pregnant, he was very careful with sexual intercourse interactions. Him and his boyfriend never took things far during heated make out sessions. Noah was very considerate of Yoongi's wishes to stay a virgin for now. The young couple has big dreams anyways.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
[fast forward ~~~>]
It's been about a week and a half since Yoongi and his parents got settled and moved in. It was time for Yoongi to start his first day at his new school and was dreading it. He was thankful that his parents gave him time to get use to the time difference change. But, a new school change was what he was dreading the most.
Yoongi looked at himself from his tall bodied mirror. He wears his schools uniform and cringed. He hates it a lot. It was black slacks, white dress shirt, Gray and black sweater vest with the school emblem on his right chest, a black tie and also a black soft sweater as an extra when he got cold. Yoongi felt like he was going to some super strict prep school or something. He was use to wearing whatever he wanted back in America. He was previously attending a public school after all. He didn't want to feel constrained to these 'fancy' styled clothing that just reminded him of how shitty the school system was here.
Yoongi sighs and takes his book bag. He walked out into the kitchen area where his mother was currently frying an egg sandwich for her son. She stopped to look at him, and shrieked in happiness .
"Wow son! You look amazing. I just want to take lots of pictures and frame them" she said looking at her son with adoration
"Ugh, please don't" Yoongi frowned "That's so weird. Also I hate these clothes" he complained pulling at his sweater
"Well think about it in a positive way. Now that you have a uniform, you won't have to worry about to wear everyday for school!" She said plating the egg sandwich "Also, I just finished making your egg sandwich. Now come eat because you're still underweight baby"
"Mooom" Yoongi groans but does as he's told anyways
After breakfast, Yoongi walked with his mother to his new school. It was about 7 minutes from their house. She wanted to speak with some administrators about Yoongi's enrollment so that's why she's accompanying her son. Also, Yoongi didn't know how to get to school by himself anyways.
As soon as they got to the front gates his mother was smothering him which was embarrassing. Other students were glancing and giggling to themselves seeing Yoongi receive overbearing attention from his mother. He eventually spilt from her when they got his information at the administration office. He then made his way to his new homeroom. His class is 3-B. Which of course has many students already acting chaotic so early in the morning.
He noticed some students were sleeping at their desk. Some were sitting on top of their desk talking to each other. Some were throwing paper and play fighting with each other and Yoongi was already annoyed. But he tried his best to suck it up and made his way to the back of the classroom hoping that people didn't pay any mind to him. Unfortunately some kid with plump lips and a doll like face made eye contact with Yoongi and started whispering to his friend.
Yoongi could careless. He just sat at this empty desk and laid his head on the desk to avoid socializing. It worked, and he was able to avoid attention until the homeroom teacher walked in and made Yoongi unfortunately introduce himself to the class. Yoongi kept his intro short, just stating his name and said 'nice to meet you'. The teacher was surprised by how dull Yoongi was acting, but let it pass.
For the most part Yoongi knew he wouldn't fit in with his classmates. Everyone was gossiping about things he didn't know about, talking about each other, and etc . For most the school day no one tried to befriend him being that he has this dark aura around him. That was until it was P.E time. And oh how much Yoongi really hated P.E class. He was never physically active and wasn't coordinated enough to play sports. He just never understood why P.E couldn't be optional. It's not like he came to school to sweat anyways.
Todays game on his first day of school had to be dodge ball. The other students were excited to play, but Yoongi wanted to rip at his hair and scream in the inside. He hated this game with a passion. But here he was, in the game. His class (3-B) shared the gym with another 3rd year homeroom class. The students had to pick who they wanted on their team. Yoongi was picked last amongst the last bottom 5 students. This was because people didn't want a scrawny unknown student on their team. Yoongi didn't blame them, it's not like he wanted to play anyways.
Eventually their gym teacher, who has very unkept bed hair and a blue track suit on explained the rules. From the opposing team Yoongi notices five students eyeing him. Of course he was confused but ignored it. The game started when the coach blew his whistle. Students were soon pelting each other with red dodge balls.
Yoongi tried his best to stay out of the way of others. He was lasting for a good while in the game since people mostly were aiming at their friends first. Some were laughing and having fun, but Yoongi was not. He was nervous and wanted to go sit against the gym wall. His team was slowly but surely going down on outed students. That was all thanks to this one muscular kid with neck length raven hair and a competitive grin. Coincidentally he was also one of the kids that was staring him down before the game started.
The ball was flying around Yoongi and he made awkward steps to avoid the balls. He also felt anxious to not bump into anyone next to him. That was when Yoongi got distracted and noticed another tall kid on his team that literally has the most ethereal face he's ever seen dodge the balls. This kid would quickly duck on the floor when a ball was coming. He would do a smooth 360 spin just nearly missing the ball. Yoongi was awed at this students athletic movements.
Just when Yoongi was distracted he didn't notice a big red dodge ball coming straight towards his face. The class heard a big smack and soon Yoongi was thrown to the ground by the velocity from the throw. The whole class gasped when Yoongi was laying on his back, vision slightly blurry. He can hear laughter coming from the opposing team. It was the muscular kid with neck length hair and his friends laughing at Yoongi.
"Yah!" He heard a deep voice yell "Thats foul Jeon Jungkook!"
Then the gym teacher rang his whistle and walked over to Yoongi who was still laying on the floor. What Yoongi didn't expect was the ethereal kid kneeling over him to check if he is okay. He looked so concerned it confused Yoongi as to why he cared so much.
"Jeon Jungkook you know the rules are to NOT hit anyone in the face!" The gym teacher yelled
"Sorry Mr. Lee I got...carried away" He shrugged nonchalantly and then snickered with this friends
"Yah, Jeon Jungkook you think this is fucking funny!? He could be seriously hurt you asshole" The ethereal boy shouted
"Whaaat, I said it was an accident. Besides, he was doing a whole lot of nothing. I was just taking out the weakest link" Jungkook laughed and his friends laughed with him
The gym teacher sighs and turned to the ethereal boy "Kim, go take him to the nurses office"
The said boy nodded and helped Yoongi up from the ground. He wraps Yoongi's arm around his shoulder, and holds Yoongi by the waist. In a normal situation Yoongi would be so pissed off he wouldn't want anyone near him. But he was feeling a bit dizzy and really needed the help.
The two walked out the gym and made their way to the nurses office.
