I slowly walked over to the girls' table, watching out for anything that may happen along the way. Without the guys around, it's kind of terrifying walking alone among a crowd of people that intently watched the back of my head. As I neared the booth where Chaeyoung was, I started to feel intimidated by the many girls around the ones I knew. I didn't have long to analyze all of them before Dahyun called me out from her seat in the booth behind Chaeyoung's.

"Oh y/n! Hi! Come sit." Momo called from across Chaeyoung. I walked over and slowly sat in the provided seat as all the attention was turned to me. They took up two booths that were next to each other. Momo breezed through the introductions as I attempted to keep up and memorize each name. Besides Momo was Jihyo and across from us sat Chaeyoung, Mina, and Sana. In the booth chair directly behind them was Dahyun, and Nayeon. Across from them was Jeongyeon and Tzuyu. Each girl was very kind in their greetings and I could already make out personalities based on how they responded.

"It's nice to finally meet you y/n!" Nayeon cheered from her spot.

"Ah yes. I'm sorry I didn't come by sooner."

"It's no problem. I'm just surprised with how close you got to all the Bangtan Boys." Tzuyu chirped from her seat.

"Yeah. I can't believe you knew Taehyung as a child. You're envied by so many others." Mina stated.

"I suppose so." I mumbled but I don't think anyone heard me.

"Y/n! Have you met your soulmate yet?" Jihyo asked.

"No, not yet. How about any of you?"

"I wish! I might as well start kissing everybody I meet to check." Jihyo dramatically gasps after her statement and pretends to lean in with puckered lips towards Momo. Momo laughed and leaned back into me. The rest of the girls laughed at the interaction.

Right. To kiss your soulmate. That is how you find them after all. Not everyone finds them, I mean you can raise the chance by kissing a lot of people I guess, but it's challenging to locate them. To kiss your soulmate is the only way to confirm that they complete you. I always hoped to keep my lips virginity until I met them. Wait. That sounded wrong.

"I heard that even before you actually find your soulmate, you could feel a bond pull you towards them." Dahyun commented.

"Have you heard the news on Hyuna and E'Dawn finding each other? I can't believe their labels dropped them even if they were soulmates. Not as if they could help being with each other." Nayeon huffed as the girls sighed and agreed. (I know it's old news but c'mon, I am still -.-)

The girls started joking around with the topic of soulmates and matching each other with celebrities.

"You know, it must be complex if you had more than one. That situation is especially rare." Jeongyeon suddenly brought up.

"That must be. Ooh hey y/n. Aren't you close with all the Bangtan Boys. Do you feel a connection with them!" Momo spoke up with mischievous eyes and nudged my shoulders. I shied away from her as the others 'ooh' at the thought.

"No way! They are already bonded. But are any of the professors by chance soulmates?" I quickly divert the subject, which worked. They instantly gossiped over professors they have seen become a little too close for comfort and those they thought would be perfect soulmates. I let out a breathe because I had small suspicions but it can't possibly be true. Don't add fuel to water, it doesn't help anyone's case and only pollutes the water.

"Actually, how are your classes holding up? Mine are so boring." Sana changed the subject.

"That's cause you keep goofing off and not paying attention! You're going to struggle on the tests!" Mina sang.

"I don't goof off! It's just not much to focus on." Sana argued back.

"You gotta know the subject to know how to pass the test." Chaeyoung spoke up.

All the girls started bantering on the subject as I watched amused. It was like the guys again, just the girl version. They constantly jump different topics and playfully tease each other. At that thought, I looked over and searched for the guys' table across the large room.

I located them due to Namjoon's pink hair standing out. Jin was feeding Namjoon a bite of food while Jungkook, Jimin, and Taehyung appeared to be throwing fruit at each other. Hoseok looked to be joking around with Yoongi while Yoongi kept a stoic face at Hoseok's aegyo. They didn't appear to mind my absence? I giggle at how much of a big deal they made about it earlier. I tune back on the girls' conversation again which appeared to have changed to chores. I was still new to the group so I didn't have much to pitch into the conversation. I sighed as I listened in on their chatter while slumping in my seat. This is going to be a long lunch.

❀♡❀

"Alrighty. Let's head to class!" Jihyo cheered as some of the girls groaned and the others cheered along.

As everyone was packing their items, I hear Mina ask me, "So what class do you have next?"

"English actually."

"Oh. That's really good! I only know a tad bit of English, you know the simple greetings and phrases."

"It's always good to know the basics of another language. Not bad Mina."

"Thanks!" I looked over and saw all the girls gathered up and about ready to exit.

"See you some other time y/n! It was really nice getting to know you! Come hang out with us again." Nayeon joyfully stated.

"Yes please do! It's nice having a freshman with Chaeyoung and I." Tzuyu added.

"It was fantastic meeting you guys too! I will definitely try to keep in touch with you guys as well."

"Oh yeah, I'll add you to a group chat with all of us." Chaeyoung added. I nodded at her statement and we all dispersed to our own directions.

I walk towards the doors of the side exit that I always went through to English. As soon as I stepped out, I instantly see Namjoon right next to the door and already making eye contact with me. He grins as he catches up to me within the crowd of people.

"Were you waiting long for me?"

"Kind of. You normally leave early so I wanted to catch you before you left. You left a bit late though."

"Oh, I'm sorry Namjoon. I thought you would have just left and I would've caught up in the building."

"It's fine. How was your lunch?"

"It was nice. The girls bantered like you guys. It was amusing to say the least." Namjoon just hummed and we continued to walk in silence. I took in the scenery outside as I felt sweat starting to form on my forehead from the heat. I hate sweating. Quickening my steps to the entrance of the Foreign Languages Building, Namjoon still keeps his pace with me. I look over to see him walking normally even though I'm speed walking a bit. He must always have had to really slow down when walking next to me, wow.

Once we entered the building, I sighed at the feel of the air conditioning surrounding my body. Namjoon stifles a laugh at my blissed expression. Taking a few moments of cooling off, I lead the way to the room. Upon closing in on the door, I opened it first before Namjoon could reach and gestured for him to enter first. He said a small 'thanks' and entered the room with me swiftly following. We sat in our seats and set our stuff up for notes before Professor Sora proceeded to begin her lesson.

❀♡❀

We had to stay back for English because Professor Sora required us to write an essay for the last minutes. Once we were finally dismissed, Namjoon and I said a brief 'goodbye' before yeeting it to our next class. I made it to Computer Science with less than a minute to spare. Sitting at my desk, logging into my desktop and exchanging a small greeting with Jisoo was all I could squeeze in before Professor Moni began her lesson.

❀♡❀

The class passed by in a breeze. We had an in-home assignment for the weekend, but knowing me I'll probably procrastinate on even starting it. Lazily pushing in my chair and slinging my bag onto my shoulder, I realize Jisoo had already left. Sighing, I exit the room with the rest of the students and slowly made my way to 'Dimples'. I must be low on energy because I didn't have lunch earlier. Taking my time walking through the hallways and looking out the windows as I pass, I arrive in front of the cafe and enter. Walking and looking around for the boys, I find them in a corner with several loveseats and armchairs around a hourglass-shaped table. Jungkook and Jimin were sitting, more like cuddling, on an armchair. Jimin was sat in Jungkook's lap with his face hiding in Jungkook's neck as Jungkook was looking at his phone to the side. Yoongi was sharing one of the loveseats with Taehyung. They held hands between them while scrolling through their phones with the other hand.

Nearing the area, I call out, "Jeez, you guys need to pick an official spot to sit at so I don't have to keep searching for you every time in this cafe." Jimin poked his head out from Jungkook's neck and gave me a tired smile. Jungkook waved as well as Taehyung. Yoongi didn't even give a response. I grinned and took a seat on the armchair next to the one Jikook was on. The love couch was across from us. The injury on my ribs was practically gone at this point, unless I put direct pressure, besides that I was fine.

"But the goal is to test out every piece of furniture in this cafe!" Taehyung exclaimed.

"No. Our original spots are always taken by other people so we have to keep looking for open spots. Like nomadic people." Yoongi states while rolling his eyes. Was that a joke from the Min Yoongi? The one who never gives me any expression other than mean ones? Le gasp. I keep these thoughts to myself as I giggle at them.

"What are you laughing at?" Jimin mumbles. I look over and see him adorably laying his head on Jungkook's shoulder facing me. I shrug as he scrunches his face and tilts his head a bit in confusion.

"You look like a puppy." I bluntly state as he unscrunches his face and stares at me with a grin.

"You know you said that out loud?"

"I know." At that he blushes a bit and hides in Jungkook's neck again. Since he had tucked himself away, I take out my phone and check to see if I have any notifications. Nothing but two emails and Instagram notifying me that someone has started a live video. Great. The emails showed up to be spam mail too.

Exiting the app, I go to Instagram to pass the time since the guys seem to be less sociable at the moment. I look over my feed and look over several posts with bored eyes.

"Oh yeah!" Taehyung suddenly yelled out. All of us are startled as we all jump a bit from our seats. Taehyung jumps out of the couch and bounds his way to me. I sink myself further in the seat as he nears. His eyes lit up with glee as he shows a wide boxy smile.
