Jaemin PoV

I hate everyone.

I swear when I got ready this morning I was prepared to not have to see my dad but oh well, he came right at the last minute and almost chewed off my left ear.

It still hurts from all the insults hurled at me, talking to me as if I'm just a mere object to be tossed away.

First day of school, just great. My few friends are gonna be questioning me, considering how cheerful I am. Renjun expecially. Chenle wouldn't really care and Donghyuck is probably just gonna slap my back and say 'Get over your depression already old man.'

Because let's be honest, nobody cares about poor ol' Jaemin. The only one who kind of cares is Jisung, and he's the youngest and purest of our entire friend group. Ugh, such an angel he is.

But when I walk into school today I lay eyes on the most handsome man ever. Like, ever.

I've never seen him before, or anyone like him. Cute nose, sharp jawline, and the cutest eye smile I've ever seen. Then again he's gone before I can even blink.

Yet when I enter my new homeroom, he's there too. It's quite easy to spot him, hence the bright platnium white hair he suits. Do I talk to him? Should I sit next to him? The seat next to him is open and practically has my name on it, so I guess I'll take it.

I automatically introduce myself to him. "Hey cutie, I've never seen you here. I'm Jaemin." I smile at the cute boy, who snaps his head to look at me with wide eyes. "Oh, hi."

His eyes are bigger than I thought, but when he smiles at me they disappear. "I'm Jeno."

I'm soft for him already and I only know his name. Na Jaemin, stop falling for boys! Or keep doing so...

"Has anyone told you how nice your smile is?" I ask and he laughs. "A few, mostly girls sadly." He answers, looking down at his books. "Can I see your schedule?" I ask and he slides it to me, already having it on his desk.

"I have several classes with you, and you're in my grade!" I'm beyond thrilled with this new boy being in my grade, and he seems a hell of a lot nicer than some of my friends.

"Oh? What part of the city do you live in?"

"Leckenkopf." (I made it up it means lick head in German I'm not sorry)

"Really? Me too!"

"Oh my god we should hang out sometime!"

My fucking EARS.

"Yeah, I don't have any friends here since I just moved but otherwise that's it."

"Maybe you can come over after school to my house, it's walking distance from here."

"My uncles wouldn't mind, sure."

"Okay great! Do you need my number?"

"I'll give you mine later, but first let's not die today."

"Fair."

"..."

"Jaemin Na it's the first day of school, let's not get too ahead of ourselves."
