After coming out, news spread like wildfire and Taehyung was sure that everyone knew by the end of the day. He ignored the stares and whispers as Jimin and he walked to their first lesson, flopping down in his seat as they reached the classroom.

Zoning out every five minutes, Taehyung's head made contact with his desk, sleepiness wanting to take over but the blonde fought the urge to close his eyes.

"Everybody, please listen up!"

Taehyung wasn't really paying attention to their teacher blabbering about the upcoming school festival, instead he thought back to last year's festival. He sighed at the memories, it was horrible.

He went for the wrong option and the people there were only clinging to him which made Taehyung really uncomfortable. He prayed that it would be different this year. Jimin poked his cheek, jerking his head towards the paper full of options. Bending over, they studied the sheet until something caught their eyes.

"No way... They finally put it on the list!" Jimin cheered, Taehyung only smiling weakly.

"Nice, let's do that then, Jiminie."

After all their lessons were over, the two made their way to the assigned room. Arriving at the door, a voice called out to them.

"We all had the same thoughts, huh?"

"Hyungs!" Jimin smiled, seeing Namjoon, Seokjin and Hoseok walk over to them.

"C'mon, let's go inside and wait if someone else wants to join." Hoseok smiled brightly and went inside, Jimin following.

Taehyung also wanted to enter the room but he got stopped by a hand holding his wrist and he turned around, his brothers having their arms crossed, a concerned yet stern expression on their faces. Oh right, Taehyung almost forgot about the ruckus he caused this morning. After some scolding they went inside and sat down, waiting for others.

"Let's sign the paper, shall we? I don't think anyone else is gonna drop by." Hoseok said, grabbing a paper and a pen which was laying in the middle of the table.

Just as Namjoon wanted to agree they heard two voices from outside say "Let's go?" and "Let's go". The door swung open, revealing Jungkook and Yoongi. Taehyung's eyes widened instantly, gaze meeting the younger's only a split second afterwards. The room was silent, everyone was aware of what had happened with the two Maknaes during the last two weeks.

Soon averting his eyes, Jungkook huffed and stepped inside, Yoongi following him. Taehyung didn't take his eyes off the brunette for a second, his body suddenly feeling like it was full of energy. Jungkook sat down next to Jimin, eyes falling onto the paper Hoseok was holding.

"I think we should sign it, almost everyone has chosen their activity by now." he suggested and the others agreed, all seven of them scribbling down their signature.

"Now that this is done, we'll bring it to the principal and you two should have a serious talk." Jimin declared, first looking at Taehyung, then at Jungkook.

"You better do, Tae's gonna go crazy otherwise." Seokjin sighed and a few seconds later the door got closed again, leaving Taehyung and Jungkook back.

"What do you want?" Jungkook asked after a few minutes of silence, his tone slightly annoyed.

"I-I wanted to—" apologise, was what Taehyung wanted to say, but a sudden spark of fear stopped him.

Jungkook had already turned his apology down once, so what would be different this time? Too scared to continue, the blonde bit his lip, eyeing the younger nervously.

"Well, if you're not gonna say anything, I'll leave."
