It was now Tuesday and Jaeho was at Jisungs house tutoring him and they had just finished their work for today?
"Are you busy again this afternoon?"Jisung asked him
"No actually I'm not, do you want me to hang out with you for a while"
"Sure"
They were watching some dumb movie when Jaeho asked Jisung a question
"So how did you meet everyone? In your friend group I mean, you all seem really close so I was just wondering if there was an interesting story"
"Okay well let me start with 3Racha since I meat them first"
~flashback~
Jisung was in fourth grade when he met Changbin who was in 5th, it was a normal day at school during recess since all grades had recess at the same time.
It was a normal day for Jisung, he was just sitting underneath the playground being bored since he didn't have friends.
He was especially bored this day for some reason and he kept looking at the mulch on the ground
He decided to try a piece of it for some dumb reason and as soon as he put it in his mouth another boy yelled at him
"Yaa, what are you doing? are you dumb? You're weird" he said the last part laughing slightly
"I swear I don't eat it on a normal basis! I am just really bored right now!"Jisung said trying to explain the weird situation he was caught in
"Well, how does it taste?"
"Like the bottom of someone's old shoes"
"Oh, have you tried that too?"
"No!"
"Haha I was just joking, anyways since your bored and I am too.... do you want to be friends?"
"Sure"
Moving on to when they met Chan a few years later
It was a few weeks into Jisung's 6th-grade year and Changbin's 7th grade year Jisung started getting sad because even though he was going to the same school as Changbin now, Changbin hadn't been hanging out with him as much
Jisung found out that it was because he had made new friend named Chan
He later learned that Chan and Sanghoon became friends because when Chan transferred there Sanghoon was assigned to show him around school, leading to them being friends
Changbin meeting the two due to not having anywhere else to sit at lunch and their personalities all clicked
But before Jisung even knew or cared about how Changbin met them he was just mad that Changbin had stopped hanging out with him as much.... so he decided that he would just hate both Sanghoon and Chan
Changbin told him that he was being stupid and that he should just try to talk to them, basically trying to convince him so he could get Chan to calm down since he didn't want anyone at his new school to think he was a bad person
Jisung's 'hate' continued for maybe a week until Changbin forced Jisung to hang out with all of them
They all ended up getting along really well, Jisung, Chan, And Changbin learning that they all shared an interest in Producing, writing, and rapping came up with the idea that they should all practice together until they think they are good enough to put their music online
Which ended up working well because now they have 3Racha
Then one-day Sanghoon went to the mall and met Hyunjin and Minho then found out that they were in the same grade and went to the same school as each other
So Sanghoon invited Minho and Hyunjin to sit with him and his friend group and everyone just accepted him and he's been sitting with him, Chan and Changbin ever since then. while Jisung was sitting with friends from his grade And never met Minho somehow
Jeongin and Seungmin, who Jisung met they where all in 9th grade
Those two have been friends since they were babies since and they just looked lonely and scared(?) at lunch so Jisung introduced himself and they automatically became super close with each other
The younger 2 never really questioned why Jisung was busy so much (it was bc of 3Racha projects) but they still all three hung out as a group
Finally, Felix who he became friends within 10th grade since that is when Felix moved to Korea
They were just going back to school after the summer break, he was with Jeongin when Seungmin walked
"Seungmin in the building!" He said in English
Jeongin and Jisung looked at him confused
"I went to L.A for three months over break remember?" Seungmin asked Jisung in English and Jeongin just looked confused
"Yeaaa?"Jisung said still confused
"I'm fluent in English now"
"How the heck do yo- never mind well that's cool"
Suddenly a teacher interrupted them
"Are you two both good at English? And you're now in 10th grade right?" She asked seeming a bit frantic
They both nodded their heads
"Okay well we have a new foreign exchange student from Australia and we forgot to find students that are good at English to help him out, can you two please show him around?"
Seungmin could not just because he said he was really worried if he missed any bit of any classes he would miss something but Jisung agreed
Jisung was walked to the office by the teacher who introduced him to an Aussie Korean boy with freckles
"Felix, this is Jisung he knows English and you two are skipping first period so Jisung can show you around, I've got to go teach my class, bye"
She said and left them alone
"Nice to meet you" Felix said in broken Korean
"You can speak English?" Jisung said to him as he walked out of the office with Felix following him
"Oh okay then, thanks"
"So how do you feel about the new school so far?"Jisung asked him
"I feel like Gucci, haha I guess it's just a lot different from Australia"
"Gucci Gucci Gucci"
"Oh my gosh, your my friend now" Felix said to him
"Yes! Only intellectuals Stan Jessi so not only are we friends but you are my best friend bro"
"Brooooooo"
After many more crack head conversations, they became best friends in a very short amount of time
Although Seungmin and Jisung had to translate for Jeongin and Felix to understand each other, Felix actually learned pretty quickly so it wasn't that much of a problem
Felix also brought new excitement to the pre-existing friend group and they all loved having him around
That's how everyone met up until their friend groups collided and now they have all 8 of them
~end of flash back~
"So um you ate mulch when you were in 4th grade?"Was the first thing Jaeho asked after Jisung explained the story of how his friend group started
"I was bored, don't judge me and I don't regret it because I don't know if I would have become friends with Changbin if I didn't decide to be dumb that day" Jisung said as he sighed thinking about it
"Also you were so childish what the heck? You hated Sanghoon and Chan because you were jealous?"
"YES I KNOW I WAS FREAKING DUMB, no need to rub it in"Jisung said
"And I thought when I asked you how you met all of them I was gonna get a basic storyline"
"Some of them where basic, just Changbin and Felix have....interesting stories" Jisung said laughing
"Wow well thanks for sharing that with me, I got to go now see you soon" Jaeho said and got his stuff
"Well thank you for hanging out with me
"Bye Jisung! Don't forget to bring Sanghoon's present tomorrow"
"Oh yea! Thank you for reminding me. Bye Jaeho"
