"Y/N? Are you listening?"

"H-huh?" She stuttered and looked to the side at her seatmate who also happened to be her best friend, but there was more to their relationship. "W-what did you say?" Y/n asked, confused.

The guy in front of her frowned. His hand went up and placed his palm on her forehead. Then, he placed it on his forehead. His eyebrows furrowed more after that. "You're not sick?" He asked, innocently.

Y/n let out a sigh, getting tired of his joke. "Shut up Jimin." She groaned and pushed him a little at the shoulder.

Jimin's smile slowly formed and his eyes shaped a crescent. He let out a chuckle. "Sorry. But I had to. You seem out of the world. Are you okay?" Jimin asked, this time really concerned.

Since the morning, she was really out of the place, even in class. She had been mumbling silently to herself and Jimin thought she was doing a ritual or something. Jimin totally understood that Y/n got out of focus in maths class, but there was no way she would lose focus when talking to him.

"I- uh...I am fine. Why are you asking?" Y/N tilted her head, confused on why Jimin asked that. She didn't even know that she was acting strange. She was too busy in her own self.

"You were acting strange, out of focus and not yourself. You had been mumbling to yourself a lot since the morning. Did you join a cult? What's their first class? Summoning a demon? Well at least it's better than maths class--"

"Jimin, not now," Y/N growled and finally opened her maths book after halfway through the class.

Jimin looked at her again but he tried to pay attention to the details this time. He noticed the eyebags under her eyes and she looked extremely tired. Just by leaving her alone for a few seconds, she started mumbling to herself again. Worried, Jimin grabbed her hand, gaining her attention.

"What?" She asked, this time a little annoyed because she lost count of something when Jimin bothered her.

"I am not leaving you like this," Jimin said. Before Y/N could process what he said, he stood up and every eye was on them, even the scary maths teacher.

"Mr Park, no toilet for you. It's your tenth time going to the toilet. Do you have a problem with your gallbladder?" The teacher said as he adjusted his glasses. The students in the class tried their best to not laugh out loud because they were scared of Jimin's power or more like his father's power. Even though they covered their mouths, Jimin could still hear the small snickers from them. He rolled his eyes and scoffed in his mind.

"No. I am not going to the toilet this time. Y/N is sick, so I am taking her to the infirmary." Jimin explained to the maths teacher, trying to keep his voice loud and words crystal clear for the old teacher to understand.

The teacher's eyebrows furrowed and he averted his eyes to Y/N who was sitting awkwardly on the chair and her hand which was held by Jimin was fully shown to the whole class. That's what all the students were whispering about.

"Are you sick, Miss Y/N?" The teacher asked and raised his eyebrow, waiting for her reply.

Feeling the intense stare from her classmates and the teacher, she felt pressured and she wanted to get out of it. She started to like the idea to go to the infirmary. "Y-yes...I am." She stuttered, having trouble speaking out with all eyes on her.

The teacher nodded his head. "Ok then, you may go." He finally allowed them. Jimin smiled and bowed at the teacher and then pulled Y/N up from her seat and walked towards the door but before they could step out, the teacher spoke once again. "And Park Jimin, make sure you come back to your class for your biology lesson. Miss it, and detention." He warned.

Jimin cursed on the inside when he realised that he had no choice but to come back later because the maths teacher was also the biology teacher as well. He believed that he was unlucky this year for getting the same annoying teacher teaching two subjects for his class.

Y/N noticed his frustrated expression, and she giggled. Hearing her giggles, he smiled, glad that she finally looked a little free. They walked out when the teacher started his class again. They sighed in relief when they had just escaped danger. The teacher was calling students to answer a quadratic equation right after they left. Usually, he would give a lot of homework as punishment if the students couldn't answer. Jimin got it all the time and it became a month's worth of homework. He was glad that he escaped punishment this time.

The sound of footsteps sounded very clear in their ears when they both walked on the silent hallway. They both kept quiet until Y/N decided to break it when she realised that Jimin was still holding her hand. "Jimin, you can let me go now." She said as she stared at their hands intertwined together.

Jimin turned his attention to her and her eyes moved down and looked at their hands. His lips curved upward into a small smile for a few seconds. "Nope!" He disagreed and started swinging their hands.

Y/n glared up at him but it slowly disappeared when she saw the cheerfulness in his face. She let out a sigh and smiled. She decided to play along as well and added speed to the swinging. Jimin was surprised by her actions and he looked down at her and came face to face with her bright smile. It triggered the laugh out of him and Y/N laughed as well. Happy smiles spread across both their faces.

▪▪▪▪▪

Jimin spent half an hour in the infirmary with Y/n until the bell rang. It was his queue to take his leave before he was late for his biology class. He did have trouble leaving Y/N alone because he was worried about her, but she was able to convince him to go back to class with a good statement which is if he got detention he wouldn't be able to send her home. After hearing that, he immediately ran to the class and she could hear him shouting goodbye to her from far away. Of course, she laughed at that.

Y/N took a nap till the last bell rang. She woke up and started to walk her way back to her class in her sleepy state but just when she was about to walk to the door, Jimin came out with her bag in his hand.

"Slept well?" he asked, with a smile on his face.

Y/N smiled back and nodded her head, She then took her bag from Jimin's grasp and wore it on her back. He patted her head slightly after seeing her cute sleepy face making butterflies flutter in her heart but she did her best to stay neutral after the small gesture that Jimin had made.

They finally stepped out of the school and the fresh air hit their lungs. The reddish-orange blanket covered the sky and it looked beautiful. Fluffy clouds hang in the air and it moves very slowly that it's very hard to notice. The slow wind blows on both of their hair and it dances with the wind. Y/N stared up at the sea of reddish-orange for a while and breathed in the cold evening air. She felt so relaxed after that.

Jimin who was beside her stared at her. He could feel his heart flutters at the view in front of him. A beauty that he hardly could see in others. He knew very well why he felt that way. He could feel his love swirling inside him for her and he appreciated that feeling always staying inside him.

"Breathe in all the oxygen in the air to keep your heart pumping because I need your heart." Jimin decided to throw out his cheesy words, adding a little biology spice to it.

It made Y/n laugh and at the same time made her heart beat faster. Her laugh sounded very pleasing in his ears and it made his lips curved upward. "Looks like someone actually paid attention in biology class." she chuckled, teasing him.

He rolled his eyes. "I was forced to. Freaking Mr Kim! His eyes were literally on me all the time! Also, almost every question he called me out!" Jimin complained as he kicked the pebbles on the pavement when he was walking on it.

Y/N who was walking beside him laughed once again. She felt so lightened up after laughing so much and felt very thankful towards Jimin. "Thank you, Jimin." She finally thanked him.

"It's nothing," Jimin replied, knowing exactly what she meant.
They both walked on the pavement while chit-chatting, enjoying each other's company. They talked a lot that they failed to realise that it's time for them to go separate ways. Y/n was the first to notice, so she turned around and smiled at Jimin who had stopped walking.

"I guess I will be on my way. Be safe on your way home," she said while smiling softly.

"I will and you too." Jimin smiled back.

She nodded her head and turned around to go her way. However, before she could walk away any further, she felt a pair of arms wrap around her waist and she flinched at the touch.

Looking back, she realized it was just Jimin who wrapped her in his warm embrace to comfort her for whatever she had been going through. Even though he didn't know it, he could feel that she had been through a lot. "Stay strong. Whatever it is, I will be there for you. Just don't hesitate to reach out for me." He said, clear enough for her to hear it.

Her lips curved upwards and she leaned a little into his embrace, feeling his warmth engulf her. "I will and thank you once again. Don't worry, I will be fine." She said and after that, she broke off their hug and turned around. "Go on now, before it gets dark. It will be dangerous otherwise."

Jimin's eyes widened but later he broke into a fit of laughter. "Seriously? I am not a girl. I should have said that to you instead." He said, holding his stomach while laughing. Y/N pouted and he saw it. Once again, he patted her head. "Go on now, before it gets dark. It will be dangerous otherwise." Jimin repeated what Y/n said and used it on her.

She nodded her head obediently and Jimin started to back away and walked off, but before that, he gave his last goodbye and waved at her. Y/n of course waved back and then turned around being brought back to reality once again. Jimin did a good job in distracting and comforting her but she knew it won't work for long because her responsibility was way more important than her own feelings.

She started mumbling to herself again. "Today is payday. Y/N work hard today, maybe you can get a bonus. After that, you will have enough money to at least buy a cradle for Yoongi. A cradle for Yoongi, Y/N. It's a big thing so don't mess it up!" She kept reminding herself and it started to become a chant in her mind.

She was actually excited at the thought of finally getting a cradle for Yoongi. Her little brother had always been sleeping on a rough blanket and it's not really a great place to sleep on for a one-year-old. She was very sure her cute little baby brother would be so happy to get it. For now, her mind was filled with happy thoughts about Yoongi. Just like everyone, she was clueless about her future as well.
