Warning: Violent Actions Are Seen

Edited.

///

You couldn't help but scowl at the couple in front of you as you sat through the duration of the biology class.

Alex would often make touchy gestures during the class, such as touching his thighs and punching his bicep if he made her laugh in some way.

You just rolled your eyes and continued your work.

After a little while it kind of hit you that you shouldn't care.

Why should you care if Alex is being touchy with Jimin. They're going out for goodness sake they are allowed act like a couple.

You scold yourself and your previous thoughts and pretend as if it was yesterday and Jimin didn't care about you.

And more importantly, you didn't care about Jimin.

You sighed in frustration and stumped your fingers of the surface of the desk.

"Do you mind?" Alex's voice dragged you out of your thoughts.

"S-Sorry?"

Damn.

Why the stutter all of a sudden?

"That noise you're making" she said, referring to your tapping fingers. "It's distracting me" She sneered.

Are you actually kidding?, you thought.

"Oh, I'm sorry that it's distracting you" you said almost sympathetically.

"I bet you are" She tensed.

"But there is a perfectly good seat alllll the way over there-" you pointed to the opposite side of the classroom. "If I'm too distracting" you said sarcastically.

"Can't you just not tap your-"

"-no sorry, I can't. It helps me focus" you smiled.

"Well then why don't you move places instead of me, as I'm sure you're aware I would like to be seated near this dashing boy" she said running her long crusty fingers through his hair.

Well actually her fingers weren't crusty. They were actually well moisturized in the finest lotions and oils.

But that's besides the point!

From your view, everything about her is crusty.

"Sorry, I like where I'm sitting" you smile.

You take this time to glance at Jimin and you find him with his lips pursed in a smile, trying with all his might not to burst out laughing.

"I see we have a bit of a dilemma" you tilt your head at her words.

"No we don't. You have a bit of a dilemma" you explain and she grits her teeth.

"What would you know? You're just a good for nothing whore who thinks she knows everything. You also have major daddy issues" she sniggered.

And then, you saw red.

You clenched your fist extremely tight.

"Well at least I'm not a girl who would give up everything she has over some boy who can barley tolerate her. Get a hold of yourself woman, you haven't faced a problem of your own yet because your daddy hands everything to you on a silver platter" you sneer and you swear you saw her eye twitch.

Just as she was about to reply, the bell for lunch break rang it's beautiful tune.

You walked out of the room quick enough that Alex couldn't get another jab at you.

You left with your head held high and made your way to your locker.

But what you missed as you were walking out of the room was Jimin's gaze of a whole load of shock, but the shock was mixed with a bit of adoration.

///

You prefer not to eat lunch inside at the cafeteria as, one, you don't have any friends, two, your wouldn't even be eating from the canteen, and three, you liked peace and quiet.

So there was a special entrance to the rooftop which no one, bar the maintenance staff, used. There was a small bench up on the roof and there was a few plants and trees in pots that were dotted around the area.

So you would sit on the bench everyday, a book in one hand and whatever you had to consider your lunch that day.

In this case, it was an apple you picked from a tree yesterday as you walked to the bus stop.

And there you sat, reading each sentence of the current chapter you were on and taking the occasionally munch of the apple you were eating.

You were so immersed in the book that you didn't even hear the door to the rooftop entrance open.

It was only when someone sat down beside you on the bench that you took your nose out of your book.

You turned your head to see two deep brown eyes gazing right back at you and a head of golden locks disheveled in front of you.

Park Jimin.

The name that seems to be popping up quite often recently.

"Em- Hello" he said awkwardly.

"Hi" you smiled and marked the page you were on before closing the book.

"I-I don't know why I am here" he said scratching the back of his neck.

"Do we really need to have the birds and the bees talk-"

"What? No! I meant on the roof! I don't know why I'm on the roof!" He defended and you burst into a fit of giggles.

"Well I don't know why you're here either"

He cautiously glanced at your eyes a few times as he twiddled his thumbs.

"Well actually, I do know why I am up here. But I don't know the reason as to why I am here" he tried to explain.

"That literally makes no sense" you chuckle.

"I mean, I just saw you" he began. "You were just walking, but it was the opposite way to the cafeteria and I let my curiosity get the better of me and I just followed you" he sighed. "Not In a stalker way though" he clarified.

"So I understand why I came up here, it was just clear my curiosity of where you were going. But I don't know why I didn't leave when I saw you were having your lunch. I just felt the need to come over here" he admitted.

You nodded.

There was a moment of silence before Jimin spoke again.

"That was cool what you did back there" he admitted and you glanced at him momentarily.

His cheeks were flushed.

"Thanks" you grinned. "Are you blushing?" You ask, your voice full of curiosity.

"What can I say? You make me nervous" he smiled.

You eyed him up and down.

"I can't tell if you are being genuine and sweet or a total fuckboy" you admit.

"I guess we will never know" he answered and you shook your head, trying to contain your chuckle.

You spent the rest of your lunch in the company of the infamous Park Jimin.

"Oh yeah, sure~" you teased.

"No! I swear!" He pressed. "I saw Chaeyeon and Hyojong have sex in the science lab!" He exclaimed.

"That is nasty" you say in disgust.

"What? Having sex?" He asked.

"Okay! Let's not get into this conversation" you laughed awkwardly.

"Noted, y/n doesn't like to talk about when a guy puts his-" he teased but you put your hand on top of his mouth.

"Oh dear god! Could you not?" You squirmed and he laughed.

"I'll stop, I'll stop" he laughed.

And that's when you heard it.

The deafening sound of the school bell interrupting your lunch.

"Ah, I guess it's time to go" Jimin said as he stood up. "I'll see you next class?" He asked with a hopeful glint in his eyes.

You nodded and he smiled, waving goodbye as he left the rooftop.

"See ya later muffin" he shouted.

"Bye" You hollered back.

And the door then closed and you sighed, laughing to yourself at the jokes you and Jimin were crying in laughter over only a few moments ago.

You quickly made your way down to your locker to put some things away and then go to your gym class.

You grabbed your gym bag and slung it over your shoulder, and before you could even close your locker, someone closed it for you.

Well, they slammed it closed for you.

You jumped from surprise.

"Geez, do you mind?" You asked before even noting who it was.

"Yeah I do mind. Why the hell are you trying to steal Jimin from me?" Alex asked in a furious tone.

"What?" You laughed. "I'm not trying to steal Jimin from anyone" you replied.

She rolled her eyes and you looked around to see her consorts has joined her.

"Oh please! I saw you eyeing him at the cafe yesterday and talking to him when I was gone taking a call" she seethed.

"Are you considering that as evidence? Because that's pretty weak"

"Oh yeah? Then what about the coming into school early just to talk to him and keeping secrets when I ask about them. Oh, and let's not forget keeping him away from me at lunch"

She acts as if this is some soap opera.

We are not in East Enders for goodness sake!

"Alex" you began. "I always come into school early. Every day. And he's the one who didn't tell you what we were talking about and he's the one who met with me at lunch" you explained.

"You really expect me to believe that?" She scoffs.

"I wouldn't believe her" on of her associates speaks. "She is the poorest butch in this entire school, she's looking for a sugar daddy and she will do anything to get him" she sniggered.

"You know what? I agree with you" Alex said, beginning to circle you and that's when you realize that no one else is left in the hallway.

Fuck.

"W-What do you want?" You mentally curse for stuttering.

"Oh! Look at this! Little miss cocky, isn't so confident" she tormented. "Is she?" She pulled your hair.

She. Pulled. Your. Fucking. Hair.

You remained silent. Whenever anything like this happens, you find yourself choking back your own tears and a shaking mess.

Which was exactly what you were like right now.

You tried to move away, but her friends had quite the grip on you.

"Let me make this clear" Alex began. "Leave him alone and we won't have any problems"

"But-" she cut you off with a slap.

A slap that landed right across your face.

"No buts" she sneered.

"And if I don't agree to this?" You asked, ignoring the stinging pain on your cheek.

"I can show you better than I can tell you" she laughed.

And that's when it went downhill.

Unfortunately for you, when you got a beating from your father just last week he got quite a forceful kick at your stomach causing you to cough up a little bit a blood.

You remembered feeling faint at the sight.

And because it was only recently, it hasn't healed yet.

And so, with just a few punches to the stomach, the same scenario happened again.

Alex and her followers got quite a fright as they were expecting you to physically cough up blood.

The just wanted a bruise or two at most.

And it wasn't until one of the girls came running to the group telling them that someone was coming.

And that's when they ran away like headless chickens.

Leaving you on the floor, sore, waiting for someone to come and see you in this state, sore, and have only one feeling course through you, soreness.

You heard the footsteps coming from around the corner and you hoped that they would just walk past you.

Of course they will walk past you, why would someone stop?, Your thoughts told you.

You just needed a minute to calm the pain and compose yourself, so you closed your eyes.

Breath in.

Breath out.

In.

Out.

In.

-wait a minute. That's not your thoughts saying that.

"Y/n, you need to keep breathing okay? Listen to me"

"Jimin?" You said hoarsely, opening your eyes to be met with the handsome blonde in front of you.

"Hey there muffin" he said quietly. "Are you okay? Do you want be to call someone?" He asked, beginning to panic.

"No, don't call anyone. I just need a few minutes" you said and Jimin nodded.

So you sat on the floor, in a random corridor, trying to calm your fluctuating nerves.

Once you were able to handle the pain, you got a packet of tissues from your bag and began cleaning up the blood.

"Hey, Hey, let me do that" Jimin said, taking the tissue from you to wipe up the blood.

It was only a small bit, it's not like you coughed up a gallon, but still, you felt bad that Jimin was cleaning up your mess.

When it was fully clean, he went to the bin and disposed of the tissue paper.

"What the hell happened to you?" He said and you could see the anger rise in him.

When he first appeared he was very nervous, not mad. But he couldn't be mad, he had to help you.

But now that you have some composure, he wanted answers.

"I don't know-"

"Oh, spare me the anger, just tell me who did it" you could see his jaw tighten.

And then you began to get angry, your emotions and hormones were all over the place, but who could blame you. Just look at the situation you were in.

"Fine! You want to know who did this to me? You want to know why I'm like this?" You exclaimed.

"Well yeah!"

"Your stupid, bitch-ass girlfriend. That's who did it" you seethed. "She accused me of trying to steal you away from her and told me to stay away from you and when I was saying no, her and her minions attacked me! That's what happened!" You shouted.

"Alex?"

"Well unless you have another stupid, bitch-ass girlfriend"

He shook his head.

"Then yes, it was Alex" you rolled your eyes.

You tried to get up, but Jimin pulled you back down.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"To class? I've already missed like fifteen minutes, I'll just say I have bad cramps" you sighed, already regretting giving out to Jimin.

"You're not going to class! Are you crazy? You're going home" he said. "And your mom will cook you something really nice and you rest and relax" he assured.

Damn.

That hit a little too close to home.

It was unintentional of course, but that doesn't mean it hurt any less.

Even after the whole situation that had just happened, you didn't shed one tear and now by Jimin saying one sentence, you can't help but let a drop roll down your cheek.

"Is it sore, do you want to lie down?" Jimin asked, his eyes full of concern.

"No, I'm fine"

"Then why-"

"Because, I don't have a mother to go home to Jimin" you explain.

Jimin was caught off guard, he didnt know what to say.

"I don't have someone there to make my favorite dishes, I don't even have time to relax anymore" You say wiping the tears from your cheeks.

"Sorry, it's just sometimes I get a bit emotional. I'm sorry if it's making you uncomfortable-"

You were abruptly cut off by a gentle hug by Jimin.

"I'm sorry, I swear I didn't know" he whispered.

"I know" you smile weakly. "No one really does"

And that just made his heart clench even tighter than ever before.

"Thank you" you said. "And I'm sorry for snapping at you earlier.

He didn't have to sit with you, but he did.

And that was all that mattered.

"No problem anytime muffin" he said smiling reassuringly. "And I get why you snapped, there's no need to apologize"

And that's when you realized that you don't care what Alex would do to you. You wanted Jimin's friendship.

You needed it.

Because you would risk the odd bruise for a friend like him.

For sure.
