We never spoke about the day where I asked him to tell the others. We never spoke again really at all.

Despite sitting beside him or across from him and despite adding to others conversations, we never replied to each other. Just as Jimin said, we coexist. Nothing more and nothing less. I won't try for more, and I'm too seflish to give on this bit of him I can have.

"Jungkook, what are your interests. Whenever we talk about dance club, you're always zoned out" Ten laughed.

"We are too" Baekhyuun gestured between himself and Baekhyun with a laugh too.

I like the arts in general. I like drawing, writing, I enjoy photography. Granted, I have taken dance classes. I've done taekwondo too. I can appreciate any form of artistic and athletic expression, but at the end of the day, I'm most talented in and prefer to draw.

"Drawing and stuff like that" I said quickly. "I do like dancing too, I took lessons when I was younger" I added in last second.

Jimin stared at me a moment, a sort of glare in his eyes. I realized then I must've overstepped a boundary.

If dance is what he is focusing on right now, it was the main source of his happiness. He spoke freely when they discussed it and again, ever so selfishly I've inserted myself. I should've shut up at 'drawing and stuff'.

Taemin immediately lit up at the fact too, which only could mean the worst.

"If you enjoy it at all, you should audition! We'd love to see what you've got and while it's too late for you to participate in competitions this semester, we could always use to new club members who simply want to express themselves"

My eyes met Jimin in that moment and his once slightly expression of disapproval completely withered away. Like he wasn't going to put up a fight. Like he's just accepted that I'll ruin everything all over again.

"Oh, I don't know..."

"I'll give you a week to think about it ok? No rush, no pressure, just if you want to. Of course there are other clubs too that are still looking for members, so browse your options" he spoke so kindly.

With a warm smile on his face that left a feeling of comfort lingering around the table. Jimin smiled a bit when Taemin spoke. And he barely nibbled at his food but made sure to offer Taemin his strawberry yogurt.

Taemin in that moment forgot about me and accepted the yogurt. Cheerily messing up Jimin's hair as he said his thank you's. It was cute. The other's all treated Jimin in a similar manner. Took care of him, nurtured him. And in return he was simply so sweet back to them.

Another reason to feel bad for overstepping.

But with the offer being in the air, I can't help but want to at least try it out. The dance team.

"Ah, I'll be heading to class early. I forgot to study for.. yeah. Bye everyone! I'll think about the offer Taemin, thank you" I excused myself. Standing and bowing before walking away.

I didn't bring a meal today. I rarely did. Stomaching food in such a setting felt- as though I would vomit it al up and over them all the second I'd try to speak.

How embarrassing.

I passed the club flyer wall. Dance team didn't have a flyer up. Then again, Taemin said they're not open for competitive dancers anymore. Jimin must have snagged the last spot last year. At least he got that, He deserves it, I'm sure.

To my disappointment there wasn't a flyer for art club either. However a photographer flyer was pinned right to the middle of the board. It was the first one that caught my eye initially, but I'd originally dismissed it to look for artclub. However, now it feels as though it's screaming at me.

"Do you like photography?" A voice asks behind me.

I turn around and see what must be a popular student. He was tall. Charming. Black hair not exactly worn in a simple bowl cut, it was styled. He had such prominent features too. A straight nose, dark pink lips, and long lashes that made his eyes pop. Even his brows were naturally full which defined the rest of his face. It was that kind of natural charm that reminded me of Taehyung.

I have an interest in it.." I paused "but I prefer drawing much more, do we have an art club?" I replied with a question.

"We do, but it filled up last year. You're new right? I'm Cha Eunwoo, nice to meet you" He smiled.

My heart felt heavy as I bowed. That smile- it wasn't like Taehyung's at all. His smile is a bright eye smile. It was pretty, almost as pretty as Park Jimin's.

"Jeon Jungkook."

"Photography is what's left in that kind of art department. I'm in it, actually. We need 3 more people to be a club funded by the school. If you have an interest in it, please join. It'll be fun." He patted my back then and walked off.

I didn't want to call his name to ask questions. I didn't want to awkwardly shout out "ok, thank you". So I let him go, but to my surprise, when he got far enough away, I noticed him glance back at me.

Cha Eun Woo.
