Jimin's POV
What can I say? First day of college was absolute shit for me.
I was late, I couldn't find any of my classes and I got bullied by a junior that broke my glasses.
The audacity of some people is something I will never understand. I should've stood up for myself and demanded he replaces them, but I can't ask people for shit, even if it's their fault.
I've worked hard for everything I've accomplished so far. I want to be a singer, I didn't want an ordinary life like everyone else, but I knew I had to make my parents proud and get a college education as a backup if my original plans fail me.
I was a top student in high school so I got plenty of scholarships to cover my tuition at my dream college that had the best chorus group in the city of Seoul.
I had two friends that enrolled in the same college as me since they also wanted to follow the same path, we said that we'd want to start a group together.
Taehyung and Jungkook have been my best friends since middle school. We know everything about each other but they don't know one thing, they don't know that I'm attracted to guys. I've never had the courage to tell them and they always wondered why I never got a girlfriend in high school.
I always responded with, "I don't have time." or "school is most important." And shit like that, but I knew one day I'd have to tell them, but honestly, I think they already know. They are smart dudes.
Anyway, that rude junior cracked my glasses that were super expensive to get in the first place and then, I lost them that day too.
I went crazy looking for them but I had no luck.
I wasn't blind without them but it would be hard for me to see up at a board in class.
"Ugh, fuck. Now I need to somehow gather the money to get new ones." I groaned as I threw my bag on my bed and laid down.
"What happened Jimin?" Jungkook asked. He is also my roommate.
"Nothing. I just met someone so rude today."
"Oh, it happens." He said and came out of the bathroom.
"Where's Taehyungie at?" I asked as I pulled out my phone.
"I don't know, probably chasing chicks." He said and I laughed.
"He's such a fuckboy."
"I know. I can't wait to find the right girl, I'm so done with my fuckboy days..."
"Really? You mean it?" I teased.
"Yeah, I do." He cleared his throat. "Anyway, wanna go do something? I'm bored."
"Okay, lets go find Tae."
We walked out of our dorm and went across campus to see if Tae was anywhere nearby.
He texted us and told he was at one of the campus cafés.
"There you are!" I said excitedly as we entered the café.
"Hey guys!" Tae said, smiling at us.
"Taehyung, what have you been up to?" Jungkook asked.
Tae started talking about his day, but I zoned out and looked around the café and saw the boy that was rude to me earlier.
He was on his laptop, his headphones were on and he looked so focused on his work.
His eyes were so beautifully shaped, his cheeks were so fluffy and his brown hair looked really soft, you'd want to run your fingers through it.
He saw me and actually waved at me, then smiled. I would be lying if I didn't think he was extremely cute. But no, I had to hate him after what he did to me today.
I curved my lips slightly then looked away focusing back on Jungkook and Taehyung but my eyes kept trying to look at the junior.
Why did I think he was so cute, I'm suppose to hate him.
"...so I think we should go and watch a movie."
Jungkook suggests, "what do you think Jimin? Earth to Jimin!" He waved his hand in front of my face.
"W-what?" I looked back at Jungkook and Tae.
"What are you looking at?" Tae asked, turning his head over to where I was staring.
"Nothing. Anyway, let's go." I said and looked away from the junior, running out the door in front of Tae and Jungkook.
Tae and Jungkook continued their conversation but I wasn't listening to a word. I felt confused, my heart fluttered now that I really saw him. I don't think I've ever seen anyone so gorgeous.
No.
I wasn't going to let that get to me, there's no way I was going to fall for an asshole no matter how cute he is. He's probably straight anyway.
Jungkook, Tae and I headed back to my dorm and played a movie, I couldn't see that well because of my myopia and of course I didn't have my glasses and I wasn't too fond of contacts.
I sighed then just drifted off into thought about how I will get the money to buy a new pair of glasses, but then my thoughts also drifted to the boy that broke them.
Shit. I have to get him out of my head.
After the movie, Tae and Jungkook decided to go find some chicks to hang out with but I obviously was not about to join that so, I stayed back and tried to read a book since I could only see from close up.
After a little while, I heard a knock on my door as I was deeply into my book. I thought it was Jungkook that had forgotten his dorm keys so I went to open up, feeling a little annoyed. He always does this.
"Can you just for once not forget to-" I opened the door and see the junior standing in front of me. How did he know this was my dorm?
"What are you doing here?" I asked, straightening my posture looking at him with firm eyes.
"I came to return something." He said and handed me what it seemed a case for glasses.
"You...you found them?" I asked as I took them from his hand and looked up at his face that turned fully red.
"Yeah. Anyway, it's late so I better get going. Um, I'm sorry again for what I did. Goodnight Jimin."
I tensed up when he said my name.
"How did you know my name?"
"It says it on your glasses." He said and winked.
He stepped back and walked away. I shut the door then looked at the case. It looked brand new and very expensive. What the hell? He just gave me a brand new case?
My brows formed a frown as I opened the case to find a brand new pair of "Tom Ford" glasses.
"What the fuck." I covered my mouth in shock as I took a good look at them. They were gorgeous exactly my style.
The new engraved named on them was really pretty too.
I put them on and I could see perfectly again.
How did he even know my prescription?
It didn't matter, I was completely stunned that he actually went through all the hustle for getting me a new pair after what he did.
Maybe he's not so bad?
He knew my name, but I never asked him for his.
The next day, I went to my classes, this time I wasn't late and found them all. I parted ways with Jungkook and Tae for the day as I was determined on finding the junior.
I decided to stay longer in my chorus class again hoping that he would want to peak in and hear me sing.
I acted like I did yesterday, then after some time I saw him. He was out the door watching me, the door slightly opened for him to be able to hear me.
"Hey!" I called him.
He tried to run away but I ran after him and caught his arm.
"Wait!"
"I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to be creepy."
"No, no it's okay. I just wanted to...thank you for getting me new glasses."
"Oh, that's nothing."
"No, it really means to me. I would never be able to get a pair like that. Maybe we can start over? Tell me, what's your name?"
"Min Yoongi. But um, I just did what I had to do. I had to replace your glasses and that's what I did. We shouldn't talk anymore. You're a freshman and I'm a bad influence. You shouldn't be near me." He said. His eyes fixed on mine, his expression blank.
Maybe I was wrong, he was so confusing.
"Okay...fine. Thank you again though."
"Don't mention it." He said and walked away.
I felt defeated and confused again. Maybe I thought too much of the situation. He really just did what he had to do in replacing something he broke. Though, he stood there and watched me sing, he looked like he wanted to say more to me but was afraid.
Bad influence.
What did he even mean by that?
I was intrigued by him now. I spent days trying to get him out of my head but I just wanted to know more about him. I knew there was something beneath that loathsome facade he would put on.
I saw it in his eyes, I saw a calm soul somewhere deep in there that is craving something I couldn't quite figure out.
I know there was more to Min Yoongi.
