“Am I late?!” Taehyung whisper screamed, apologizing to the few people he passes by from the small cramped space of the main event room of NYU.

“By five minutes.” Jungkook deadpanned, his arms and legs folded as he gave his best friend a hard stare. “You're lucky my baby hasn't started yet.”

“Sorry, I got held up by my art professor.” Taehyung sighed out, plopping on his seat beside Yoongi and kissing his cheek. “Are the other Ace's around?”

“We are in fact, around.” Namjoon confirmed from above Taehyung's seat, waving at him when he turns around and is greeted by the other Ace's by waves and silent pats of recognition. “We wouldn't miss Miracle's competition for the world.”

“Like he would miss any of yours.” Jungkook says fondly, shaking his head. “Miracle would slice himself in half to support all of you guys. That's just who he is.”

“Also, half of the class have been cowering in fear. I don't know if you've guys noticed.” Taehyung says with a light giggle, gesturing to their side of the seats which had less people than the opposite area which was filled by audience.

“We don't look that intimidating.” Yoongi commented with a roll of his eyes, resting his head on his boyfriend's shoulder as the announcer of the contest begun their starting speech.

“Go, Mimi!” Seokjin yelled in encouragement, the blond turns his head from the contestant's table and smiles brightly at the latter. “You can do it!”

Jimin lets out a giggle, waving at Taehyung who had just arrived and sending a flying kiss to his boyfriend to which the raven haired dramatically catches and places his hand over his heart.

“Dork.” Jimin huffed in laughter, returning his gaze to the instructor and listening attentively to the rules of the chemical equation quiz bee.

“You'll be given exactly two minutes for you to solve the equation, good luck.” the instructor says as he finished his speech and the board of judges turn to their own paper's to solve at the same time to correct the contestants answers. “Judges, on your mark.”

Jimin glances around his competitors, all of them smiling at him friendly and he knows they'll be playing sport this time so he's not worried.

“You're going to crush us, Jiminie.” Mingyu says from beside him, starting a small talk with a light nudge on the blond's shoulder. “That or your boyfriend will crush us.”

“He wouldn't hurt a fly.” Jimin teased, giggling at the unimpressed look his friend sends him. “Unless provoked.”

“Jeon Jungkook will bulldoze anyone who tries to get to you.” Mingyu reiterated, uncapping his whiteboard marker when the instructor tells them to set themselves to start. “Good luck, Minie.”

“Goodluck, Gyu.” Jimin replied kindly, uncapping his marker as well and waiting patiently for the sliding board to reveal their equations. Once it does, the blond takes a quick once over and starts furiously solving on his board before any of the other's could.

“He must be a genuis.” Taehyung gasped out in awe, staring at the projectors which showed an above view on each candidates board where Jimin was skillfully scrawling the equation like he'd memorized it already. “Bro, what the fuck?”

“I can't even begin to comprehend that.” Yoongi groaned out, glancing at Namjoon who was also on his phone solving the equation like the smart wizard he was. “Namjoon seems to be the only one amused right now.”

“This is sorcery.” Jungkook commented in disbelief, slapping a hand over his forehead as his jaw drops as Jimin even has the audacity to draw a heart at the end of his equation once he's boxed his answer. “Holy fucking shit, Miracle! You're a genius!”
