Chapter 5

...By the time Hoseok and Taehyung arrived to school, the first lesson was already over....

...''Thanks for the ride, hyung.'' Taehyung thanked as he took his bag and was about to leave the car....

...''No problem kid, call me when you finish school if you need a ride home.''...

...''Okay, thanks.''...

...''Have a good day, don't tell Jin about this!''...

...''I won't, you too!'' Taehyung shouted back as the older drove away....

...A sigh escaped Taehyung's lips as he turned on his heels and started making his way to the school's entrance. The bell was going to ring in a few minutes so the raven didn't even bother going to his first class of the day but rather made his way to English class....

...Just as he made it to the door of the classroom, the bell rang signaling that the lecture was over. Taehyung waited patiently for the students to start leaving the classroom. The door opened up and the students started leaving the class all minding their own business....

...Taehyung waited until they all left the classroom before he made his way inside. He sat down in the last row in his seat and took out his books. A minute later his classmates started walking in, he watched the door and waited for a head of purple hair to finally show up....

...''Dude what the ****?'' And as he did, he didn't bother greeting his best friend but rather just got straight to the point. ''Where were you?''...

...''I overslept.'' Taehyung explained making Jungkook roll his eyes and sit down next to him....

...''At least text me next time and tell me you're going to be late, I thought you died or something.'' Jungkook replied making Taehyung let out a chuckle....

...''Died? Really Kookie?''...

...''Well yeah, you always tell me everything so the only logical explanation for you not showing up to school and not telling me about it would be that you died.'' Jungkook explained making the raven fake a laugh....

...Guilt shot through the younger's chest as he thought Jungkook's words over. If only what the boy said was true, about Taehyung telling Jungkook about everything. He felt so guilty about leaving Jungkook in the dark. The boy didn't even know that he no longer lived with his parents....

...''Anyway, it's Wednesday my dude.'' Jungkook replied with a smirk plastered over his lips....

...''I can't tell if you're smirking because you're about to scream loudly like that Spiderman dude or because you're about to mention my gum problem, but either way I'm saying don't.'' Taehyung replied making his best friend pout....

...''I was gonna do both...'' Jungkook murmured in a disappointed tone....

...''Remind me again why I love you.'' Taehyung replied earning a smirk from the older....

...''Meet me in the bathroom stall during the lunch break and it'll all make sense to you.'' Jungkook tried to whisper in a seductive tone as he leaned closer to the younger, but it just caused Taehyung to cringe and push him away....

...''Are you feeling okay?'' Taehyung asked with a chuckle. ''Usually you want to slaughter about eight people by now, why are you in such a good mood?''...

...''I don't know, I guess that nap really helped with my mood.''...

...''You slept through the entire math lesson, didn't you?''...

...''Pretty much, yeah.''...

...''As long as you're in a good mood.'' Taehyung sighed making the purple haired boy flash him a wide toothy grin....

...''Good morning class.'' The teacher spoke up as she walked into the classroom....

...And so, another lesson Jungkook and Taehyung didn't pay attention to began. The lecture went by in a blink of an eye and Taehyung was snapped out of his happy and carefree state when he realized he was going to see Jimin again....

...''Quick, let's go we have to catch him.'' Taehyung spoke up as he rushed out the classroom....

...''Why?'' Jungkook asked as a sigh escaped his lips, he knew that it was pointless asking so he got up and followed behind his best friend who was rushing down the hallway to get to Physics class....

...The door of the classroom opened up and a sea of students started rushing out, Taehyung stood up onto his tippy toes to try to see a head of pink hair but Jimin wasn't in the crowd. With a pout, the raven and the purple haired boy walked into the classroom only to find the said boy still talking to the teacher....

...''Come see me after this lecture.'' Mr. Ahn told the pink haired boy making him quickly nod his head and rush away. He wasn't looking where he was going and ended up bumping into Taehyung....

...''Sorry.'' He murmured not even sparing him a glance and rushed out of the classroom....

...''Rude.'' Jungkook spoke up as he stared at his best friend....

...''Maybe he was just in a hurry.'' Taehyung defended the boy for a reason he wasn't exactly sure of....

...''Well it's time for the big reveal, did he leave another surprise...'' Jungkook trailed off as the pair made their way to the last row....

...''You check.'' Taehyung replied not in the mood to look at the pink goo Jimin most probably left behind again....

...''And the answer is...'' Jungkook spoke as he approached his desk. ''I was correct; it's here, the lovely pink ball of goo as pink as the owner's hair. And this time I came prepared.'' Jungkook replied as he placed his bag onto his own desk and took out a pack of wet wipes....

...A giggle escaped Taehyung's lips as he watched Jungkook pick up the gum with the wipe and clean it up then walk away to throw it into the trash bin....

...''Thanks.'' Taehyung thanked him as he sat down at his gum-free desk....

...''Anything for you.'' Jungkook replied as he patted the younger's shoulder. Taehyung was about to reply when his back pocket vibrated signaling he got a text message....

... ...

...FosterFather <3:...

...[Tae tae]...

...[hobi joonie and I are going out for drinks tonight]...

...[dinner is gonna be in the fridge but ur gonna have to take the train home is that okay?]...

... ...

...BabyBrother <3:...

...[Yeah Ill survive a night without you guys]...

... ...

...FosterFather <3:...

...[Alright text me when u get home]...

... ...

...BabyBrother <3:...

...[Got it hyung]...

... ...

...''Who you texting~?'' Jungkook asked as he wiggled his eyebrows at the younger....

...''Jin hyung.'' Taehyung replied as he placed his phone into the small compartment underneath the desk....

...''You guys talking again?''...

...''We never really stopped.''...

...''Oh... Then how come you never mention him?''...

...''He's busy with college; there's not much to talk about. He calls me every other day to check up on me.''...

...''That's nice, I wish Yugyeom cared at least half as much as Jin hyung does.'' Jungkook replied with a pout....

...''You guys still ignoring each other?''...

...''Do you see him ever greet me in the hallways?''...

...''No...''...

...''Then there's your answer.'' Jungkook replied; his pout now permanently stuck on his lips....

...''I don't get it, the two of you could have a good relationship if only you stopped bickering over the tinniest little things.''...

...''But he's an idiot!'' Jungkook shouted out in frustration, earning a few glares from the classmates. ''You know I can't tolerate the shit that comes out of his mouth.''...

...''What shit?'' Taehyung asked confused....

...''You wouldn't understand, he's only like that towards me.'' Jungkook replied as Mr. Ahn walked into the classroom....

...''Good morning class.'' Mr. Ahn spoke as the students stood up to greet him....

...''Good morning Mr. Ahn.'' The class replied....

...''Alright, let's check attendance.'' The man replied as the teenagers sat back down....

...''What if you just tried not snapping at him for every word that comes out of his mouth?'' Taehyung suggested making the older glare....

...''If I could I would.''...

...''Well then I don't know, maybe I really am lucky to have a brother like Jin.''...

...''Jeon Jungkook.'' Mr. Ahn spoke up making the said boy's eye go wide in fear....

...''Y-yes.'' He stuttered out as he turned his head to the front of the class only to realize Mr. Ahn called him because he was checking attendance....

...''Present, and loud as usual.'' Mr. Ahn murmured to himself causing a few chuckles to escape from the first row....

...''Sorry.'' Jungkook apologized....

...''Keep it down you two.''...

...''Yes sir.'' The pair replied in unison as the teacher went back to checking attendance. The boys spent another hour barely paying attention and mostly just talking. Another lesson ended and Jungkook happily jumped from his seat with a grin plastered over his lips....

...''Finally, food time.'' He spoke as he grabbed his things and was ready to rush out of the classroom....

...''At least wait for me.'' Taehyung called after the purple haired boy as he grabbed his bag and rushed out of the classroom to catch up. ''Why do you always leave me behind?'' Taehyung asked with a pout plastered over his lips....

...''Because if I had to choose between you and food I would without a doubt sell your body for instant ramen.''...

...''Instant ramen? I'm not even worth a properly prepared in a restaurant ramen to you?'' Jungkook only flashed the younger a smile making him glare. ''Guess who's never treating you to food again.''...

...''Oh c'mon, you should know by now that food is the love of my life.''...

...''Yeah, cause your coward *** will never grow the balls to talk to a girl.'' Taehyung replied earning a glare in return....

...''The only thing you're hurting are my feelings.''...

...''Well those were my intentions so...'' Taehyung replied making the older pout again....

...''Oh c'mon, why do you never understand and appreciate my references.''...

...''Oh I understand them, I just don't appreciate them.''...

...''Hey, stop being the mean one, I don't like this.'' Jungkook whined....

...''Really? I'm having fun.'' Taehyung grinned innocently earning a shove from the older....

...''What did I do to deserve this.'' Jungkook pouted....

...''Just a minute ago you were telling me how you wouldn't have a problem selling me for a pack of instant ramen.''...

...''We've already been through this food is my life.''...

...''Yeah, I know, because then I brought up your non-existent love life.''...

...''Like you're any better than I am.''...

...''You don't see me complaining about being single though.''...

...''I'll never understand that about you.''...

...''You'd understand if I just told you...'' Taehyung murmured to himself....

...''What was that?'' Jungkook asked....

...''Hm? What was what?''...

...''Didn't you say something?''...

...''No? Maybe it was your phone...'' Taehyung suggested making the older take out his phone to check it....

...''Wasn't mine.'' Jungkook replied making Taehyung reached into his back pocket only to realize it's empty....

...''Kook... Where's my phone?'' He started panicking as he searched every pocket he had....

...''You can't find it?'' Jungkook asked as he watched the raven panic and tap his thighs to try to feel out the phone in one of his pockets. ''Didn't you have it earlier though.''...

...''Shit... I left in Physics class.'' Taehyung realized making the older sigh....

...''Go get it, I'll take your stuff to the cafeteria.'' Jungkook replied as he took the younger's bag and continued walking into the direction of the cafeteria while Taehyung sprinted back to physics class. He rushed to the door and swung it open only to reveal a pink haired boy and Mr. Ahn standing next to his desk....

...''S-sorry, I forgot my phone.'' Taehyung apologized as he rushed over to the last row and took out his phone....

...''If that was all Mr. Ahn, then Taehyung and I will go get lunch now, right Tae?'' Before the raven could even process what was going on a hand wrapped itself around his own and suddenly Jimin was clinging onto his side gripping onto him as if it was life or death....

...''Uh, ye-yeah, ha-have a go-good day sir.'' Taehyung managed to stutter out as the head of pink hair dragged him out of the classroom....

...What the ****? Taehyung's mind screamed as the pink haired boy continued to drag him down the hallway his hand still wrapped around the younger....

...''Can I sit with you at lunch today?'' Jimin asked as he flashed the younger a sweet smile, the only thing Taehyung managed to do was nod in reply making Jimin grin. ''Great, then lunch is on me.''...
