Rian POV

Eventually, Jungkook lets go, and when he does, I wipe off my tears. I can feel his eyes staring the back of my head, but I don't dare look behind me- I was too embarrassed to even look at his face. The situation felt awkward.

"What... happened?" Jungkook's soft voice interrupted the silence. I blink a few times, but I still don't dare to turn around and look at him. Instead, I stare at my lap.

"My grandmother passed away" I try to add a bit of I'm okay in my voice, but it just turned out to be scratchy. There was a long pause, and I try to kill time by fidgeting my fingers.

"I'm sorry" Jungkook said.

"It's fine" I quickly say. After finding the courage, I let out a deep breath and stand up, turning around to look at him. At first, his face shocked me. Instead of seeing the happy kid he always is, his eyes looked sad.

"Let's go back" I mutter, but managed to put on a very small and fake smile. It was hard to act as if I was fine, when I was just told that one of my favorite people in the world just died. But just for Jungkook, and so I wouldn't make him feel bad, I make an attempt to look as if as I was okay.

"Sure..." Jungkook said really slowly, with hesitant in his voice. He looked uneasy, as if he knew I didn't recover yet. But without any questions, he followed me back inside the school.

We both walked slowly through the hallways. I know that Jungkook was still behind me, but I kept my eyes on the floor the whole time as I walked. Some people were staring at me, but right now, I had absolutely no care for it.

I walked into the girls dorm, wondering if Jungkook had stopped following me yet. But as I slowly walked, I could hear a rhythm of footsteps behind me.

There were a few girls walking by, giving me a shocked face. But in reality, they were not surprised that there was a guy was in the girls dorm- that happens all the time- but they were shocked of the fact that "the one and only Jungkook" was following me to my room.

When I stopped at my room's door, I finally turn around to face Jungkook. He still gave me sad eyes.

"Gomawo" I say, faking a small smile. *Meaning "thanks"*

Jungkook nodded, his sad expression not changing.

"Bye" I mutter as I turn around to enter my room.

But before I could go, Jungkook put hand on my shoulder to stop me. I turn around, surprised.

"Are.. you.. OK?" Jungkook stammered in English.

Faking a smile, I say, "Yes. Thank you".

He nods back, and after a long moment of silence, he gives me a small wave and a reassuring smile. I watch him as he shoves his hands in his pockets and walks away. When he disappears, I let out a deep breath and enter my room.

I quickly change into my pajamas, and not caring about missing the rest of my classes, I jump into bed, with a box of tissues with me.

This reminds me a lot of the time my mom died...

Jungkook POV

.

I walk out of the girls dorm casually, my mind filled with the thoughts of Rian. She looked so hopeless and depressed. I couldn't even help her a little bit- hugging her was my best idea of a comfort, which didn't really make much of a difference.

"I hope she's okay..." I mutter to myself as I walk to my dorm. Namjoon, Hoseok, and Jin Hyung would get so mad if they find out that I was skipping class. But I don't care- I was in such a foul mood.

"Jungkook!" A familiar voice said. I turn around, and as I expected, I see Jenny waving at me. She runs to me with a bright smile.

"Why are you here?" She asked. "Did you come to see me?" She blushed, looking down.

I give her a smile which said sorry. "Actually I came here for Rian" I say, scratching my hair.

Jenny's eyes popped up. "What? Why?" She asked slowly.

I hesitated to answer- I didn't really want to tell her what happened. I don't know If Rian would like it if I tell Jenny her personal business. "No reason.." I shrug.

"Oh.." For some reason, she looked really sad.

"What is it?" I mutter.

Jenny shrugged and walked away, not even giving me a glance. Did I do something wrong?

Shrugging, I walk away.

Jenny POV

.

Oh, I am going to kill that girl! I marched to my room with my face red as a tomato. I was pretty sure that I was leaving burned marks on every step I took. I was just so mad! Why did Jungkook want to see her? It should've been me!

When I reach the room, I turn the door knob hard, but it was locked.

"Aish..." I mutter, searching my bag for the key. Mirror... cellphone... gum... picture of Jungkook... Ah- finally, the key! I smile as I picked it up, and examine it as if it was a treasure. I give it one quick kiss, which wasn't weird at all. I was just very happy.

"Finally" I smile as I shoved the key into the keyhole. Unfortunately, the key fell down, so I had to pick it up. "Come on..." I mutter angrily as I shove it again. I finally unlock the door, and when I do, I step into the room and search for Rian.

"Rian!" I yell, hands on my hip.

"What?" A shaking, tired voice caught my attention. I spin my head to where the noise came from, which was Rian's messy bed. To be honest, I was surprised by the weak voice, which was definitely unusual. Whenever Rian and I fight, she always gives me fierce eyes, and she always talked with a loud voice.

But now, she doesn't even dare to give me a glance.

I twitch my nose and walk to her bed. She doesn't move, making me angrier. I throw the bed covers off of her, and gasped a little. There were unsanitary tissues all over her, as if she just broke up with a boyfriend- which she would never have.

Then it hit me: Jungkook must have scowled her when he came to see her, which probably made her cry. Maybe because either he hated her, or he just didn't appreciate her singing and dancing for the competition.  I smile to myself.

"Go away..." Rian muttered, picking up her pillow and putting it over her head.

"Ew... whatever" I acted as if I was disgusted at her, but I was actually very happy. If Jungkook yelled at her, then it means that he's on my side! I smile to myself as I walk away. Could it be that Jungkook finally acknowledges my existence?

"Yes!" I throw fists of justice. Finally, Jungkook is in my side!
