Chapter Eight

"OH MY GOD, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? " Yoongi gasped when he saw Jungkook walking over to him looking like a panda with dark eye bags around his face, looking as tired as never before.

"Nothing hyung" Jungkook waved him off with a tired smile "I was just doing some thinking" he said

"what were you thinking about that kept you up enough to look like this?" Yoongi asked looking worriedly at his friend.

"Nothing important" Jungkook answered because of course he couldn't tell his friend that he was thinking about a boy he met yesterday at the dance battle arena, who had the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen or that he had the loveliest smile, one that kept him up all night.

whenever he closed his eyes, he would see his face smiling at him, his eyes holding a thousand stars and he remembered being almost lost in them when he stared.

He wished he could draw or better yet paint so he could capture the fresh memory of the boy's face on paper, he didn't want to forget his face anytime soon and he wished he could see him again and maybe get to know him better, the thought of not seeing him again made him bitter but he could only leave meeting him again to fate.

even his name was beautiful, the tune of it was like music to his ears, 'Taehyung' it tasted sweet as it rolled off his tongue.

"earth to Jungkook" the snapping of fingers in front of his face brought him out of his thought to see they were already in front of the entrance to the dance school.

"it's so unlike you to black out when we're walking, are you sure there is nothing you want to tell me?" Yoongi asked

"Affirmative" Jungkook answered "how are you and J going so far?" Jungkook asked changing the subject as he opened the door and stepped in.

"There is like zero progress, it's like he doesn't even notice me" Yoongi said, a disappointed sigh escaping his lips

"Hyung, how about improving in your dance, I know you're only attending here to grab his attention but if you stop being lazy and put some effort into dancing, he might actually notice you" Jungkook said with a quite laugh as he watched the elder blush.

"shut up" Yoongi said, pushing him away slightly which made him laugh but it disappeared the moment he saw a familiar figure in front of them going towards the stairs.

"Isn't that... " Yoongi was saying when Jungkook's voice stopped him

"well well well if it isn't the dirty poor rat" Jungkook said with a smirk as he watched Jimin turn around to meet his gaze.

"Jungkook" Jimin whispered, his hands turning to fist and Jungkook heard him.

"The one and only, I see you caught my name rat" he said, watching in amusement as Jimin glared at him with so much hate that if looks could kill Jungkook was sure he would be six feet under.

"Did you come here to steal from us? How did you even manage to get past the guards?" Jungkook asked looking around as if he was looking for someone.

"I attend this school now" Jimin simply said, head held up high as he watched the smirk melt from the others face.

"what? did you steal just so you can... "

"how I got the money isn't your business Jungkook" Jimin cut him off, his voice getting a bit deep because of anger. "Just be prepared to get the heartburn you promised yourself" Jimin hissed before he continued climbing the stairs, ignoring the glare that Jungkook was shooting at his back.

"wow, that boy really is something" Yoongi whistled beside Jungkook as he also watched Jimin disappear up the stairs.

"He's nothing hyung and he dares talk back at me like that simply because he managed to get the money to attend here which I'm sure he had stolen" Jungkook said through gritted teeth "he thinks I'll let him go free, just you wait rat, I'll make your life a living hell here"

"Whoa whoa, what did he do to you Kook, why do you even hate him" Yoongi asked because he had never seen Jungkook look so angry in all his life.

"I don't know hyung, but something about that boy irks me, I hated him the moment I saw him" Jungkook said eyes still blazing.

"Just forget about him, let's go before J gets angry, come on" Yoongi said, tugging at Jungkook's arm to get him to move and he did still very angry because of a certain pink haired boy.

Meanwhile, Jimin got to his class, he stood outside the door taking deep breaths in order to calm his nerves, he did it for 10sec before placing his hand on the doorknob and turning it to get it open.

He had always imagined what the dancing room would look like but this beats his imagination,the room was huge, the two walls facing each other were all covered with mirror and the one facing the door was made purely of glass that showed the view of the street across bighit.

"wow" he thought as he watched many dancers stretching and warming up for the class.

"you must be the new student" a voice said beside him startling him. He turned to see the owner of the voice, a boy who had a bright smile on his face, his features soft and welcoming.

"Yes, i... I'm Park Jimin" he answered, shaking the hand the other had stretched out.

"I'm Jung Hoseok but you can call me J-hope or J for short" he introduced letting go of Jimin's hand " and I'll be your dance instructor for as long as you decide to stay" he said before clapping his hand loudly to get the attention of the other students in the room.

"get in position everyone" he shouted and just then Jungkook and Yoongi walked in, Yoongi immediately speed walking so he could get in his position but Jungkook took his time glaring at Jimin as he passed by him.

"This is our new member Park Jimin, please take care of him" Hoseok announced once everywhere was silent and at once the whole room erupted with welcome chants which brought a smile to Jimin's face.

"Thank you for welcoming me" he said while bowing to the class and when he raised his head he saw Jungkook rolling his eyes at him all the way from the last row before looking elsewhere.

"good, since you're new, you will stay at the front row until we see your level of dance skills before giving you your own spot" Hoseok said as he pointed at a spot for Jimin to occupy.

"because of Jimin, we'll slow down for him to catch up" Hoseok said before moving towards the Mp3 loudspeaker to play a song.

Few hours later, Jimin found himself panting, his whole body covered with sweat as he leaned on his knee with his hand, trying to catch his breath.

"that's it for today" Hoseok voice rang through the room followed by grateful sighs and heavy breathing.

"you're a fast learner Park, that's very impressive, keep up the good work" Hoseok commented as he stood beside Jimin handing him a bottle of water.

"thanks" Jimin answered taking the water from him.

"see you tomorrow then" hoseok said before moving to leave the room with the others following behind him until they were all gone and once he regained his breathing he decided to walk out too.

just as he walked through the door, he tripped on something or someone's foot in this case and fell down with a loud thump. He hissed as he rubbed his arm which took most of the impact, he looked up when he heard someone's laughter as he walked down the Hall.

"break a leg loser" Jungkook called, laughing as he turned towards another hallway.

"**** you Jungkook" Jimin whispered trying to get up despite his aching muscles.

"you'll pay for this Jungkook"
