Gleefully, Jungkook skipped down the hallway to his locker, music blasting from his headphones. Lately, the younger's condition has gotten better and better. Avoiding Taehyung somehow helped him to get over the rejection but before the next stage of his plan could begin, he needed to accept the older's apology. So Jungkook decided to listen to Taehyung for real the next time he wanted to talk with him.

Just as he took out all of his books and stuffed his headphones into his locker, he saw a crowd of people, mostly girls but also guys, walk past him. They all looked surprised and sad but especially disappointed. Jungkook's narrowed his eyes in confusion, wondering what happened to them until it hit him. Weren't those people Taehyung's fans? The ones who followed him everywhere? Because he swore he'd never seen them without Taehyung before.

"I can't believe this." a girl said, eyes completely emotionless.

"Me neither. How come none of us suspected this?" her friend added, confusing Jungkook even more.

Shrugging it off, he started walking to his classroom until someone from the zombies ran straight into him. The girl fell on her butt, rubbing her head because damn, Jungkook's chest was pretty hard and solid.

"I-I'm so sorry—" he began apologising until she looked up and Jungkook's words got stuck in his throat as he recognised her.

She was one of the girls who had openly mocked him infront of Taehyung. Her eyes widened, she seemed to remember who he was and got up quickly, bowing hectically.

"No, I'm sorry! I was the one walking straight into you, it's not your fault!"

"O-oh, okay?"

Awkwardly, Jungkook scratched his neck, not knowing how to respond properly.

"And I'm sorry for saying those mean things about you the other day, I guess I was jealous." she smiled weakly and Jungkook was beginning to get scared by her sudden change of personality.

"No problem..."

"Alright, see you around then."

She joined the zombies, leaving an utterly confused Jungkook back. Soon shrugging it off, he made his way to his first class, sitting down next to Yoongi.

"Yo, you're not gonna believe what just happened to me." he said, Yoongi giving him that 'Tell-me'-look.

After telling him the whole story, even his best friend was confused.

"And she just apologised to you just like that?"

"She did, it was scary how nice she suddenly was."

"Well, at least some people change—"

"GUYS! You won't believe what just happened!" a classmate from them barged inside, immediately gaining the class' whole attention.

"Kim Taehyung just came out as gay!"

Jungkook's and Yoongi's eyes widened, throwing surprised looks at each other.

"There are lots of videos on Insta!"

Almost simultaneously, everyone pulled their phones out and watched the video.

"Today's already so fucked up.." Yoongi uttered during the video.

Meanwhile Jungkook had other worries. Why hadn't Taehyung slept for four days? And why would he just confess everything like that? His thoughts however, abruptly got pushed aside when the teacher came inside and everyone packed their phones away. Throughout the lesson Jungkook tried to concentrate but failed, his mind always wandering back to Taehyung. When only ten minutes separated them from break, the teacher clapped two times to gain their attention.

"As you all know, our annual school festival is coming closer. As juniors, you guys already know how it works so I don't think I have to explain it again. Here I have the list with the different options. After the last lesson you guys will go to the room where it'll take place and write your name into a list if you want to participate. But if there are more than 25 people who want to do the same, for example like last year's Maid Café, you'll have to go somewhere else. Also, from this year on participating is compulsory!"

As the list with the different options came to Yoongi and Jungkook, they quickly skimmed it until the mint-haired boy's eyes widened, pointing at the word »Band«.

"That's what we're going to do. Definitely."

Jungkook nodded eagerly. So the two waited impatiently until all their lessons were over just to dash to the room afterwards.

"I can't believe they finally added the thing I've been waiting for since I was a freshman!"

Giggling at his best friend, Jungkook walked faster. That was really the best thing that could happen to them. Jungkook liked to sing and Yoongi like to compose, so it was like a dream coming true for them. Soon, they stood infront of the room.

"Let's go?"

"Let's go."

Together they pushed the door open, five other people immediately coming into their vision. Kim Namjoon, Kim Seokjin, Jung Hoseok, Park Jimin and last but not least Kim Taehyung. Their eyes met, Jungkook freezing right on the spot. This wasn't happening right now, was it?
