♣ ♣ ♣

Today was an all-study day, meaning that it wasn't necessary for us to participate in class unless we had questions to ask. Areum, the boys and I therefore decided to study at the school library all day to catch up with some studies. We tried really hard not to start a conversation, but it was difficult since it was so easy for us to kick off a random topic just like that. Eventually, I had to put my earphones on to shut out the world around me in order to solve the tricky problems the world of math had to offer.

After struggling with the same problem for what feels like an eternity, I rage-quit and decide to start working with the assignment instead. Since I was doing it alone, I needed to work twice as much with it and since it was due on Monday, I better start with it sooner rather than later. Or else I would spend a whole Red Bull-infused, sleep deprived weekend just to finish the damned thing in time.

My eyes scan across the endless rows of books, searching for any keyword related to The Cold War. When finally finding one book that seemed useful, I discover that it of course was was located on the top shelf, just barely out of my reach.

Challenge accepted.

I stretch out my arm and slowly tiptoe until I precisely manage to reach the book. But just when I succeed in carefully sliding the book out of the bookcase; I lose my balance.

A gasp escapes my lips as I feel my body starting to fall backwards. Then out of nowhere, I feel someone grab my waist and holding me firmly, preventing me to embarrassingly fall on my butt.

"Are you okay?" An incredibly soft voice spoke. I blink a couple of times, trying to wake myself up from my internal shock. The mysterious savior with the melodic voice helps me regain balance as I stand up straight, before finally facing him.

Holy shit.

Only one look at him caused my entire vocabulary and rational thoughts to disappear like a fart in a hurricane. He was just as gorgeous and breathtaking as Taehyung had been the first time I saw him. However, this incredibly enticing male before me was so cute. I have honestly never seen someone with such kind, appealing eyes that he has. And those cheeks. The first instinct I received was to reach out and squeeze them, to confirm that they were indeed as lusciously soft as they appeared. One thing that definitely did not go unnoticed, was his deliciously plump lips.

I almost started sweating when bravely fighting the urge to launch myself towards him, that's how tempting this angel before me was.

"I'm so sorry! I lost my balance," I explain, hiding my burning face with my hands in embarrassment. An amused, soft laugh was heard from the cute boy standing before me. The angelic sound was so pure, it almost cleansed me from the inappropriate thoughts that had appeared the second I saw his striking features.

"Why didn't you just use the stool to get up there?" he asks, sparking confusion inside me as I eye him with questionably frowned eyebrows. Seeing my perplexed expression, he simply gestures to an item standing two steps away from me. A stool. Of frickin' course. Being the oblivious blind goose I was, it didn't surprise me at all when I made things harder for myself than it had to be.

I slap my hand against my forehead before letting it slowly glide down my face as I let out a groan in exasperation.

"I.. I actually have no idea how to explain this except that I'm really blind," I explain awkwardly, mentally slapping my inner socially awkward self for showing up when its presence was least wanted. But instead of being weirded out, he laughs again. Right now, I'm not sure if he's laughing at me or with me.

"You're cute," he states with a chuckle, dragging a his fingers through his silky, raven hair. "I'm Jimin, by the way. Park Jimin."

And I'm officially deceased.

"I'm Blue. Like the colour blue, not as in sad or depressed blue. I'm actually happy and not blue. I mean I am Blue but I'm not blue," I ramble on like an idiot, noticeable that my brain has ceased to function. Meanwhile Jimin apparently found me hilarious and thus started laughing, the only thing I wished to happen next was to be completely squashed into a mush by a falling bookcase so I could escape this neverending chain of embarrassment and self-humiliation.

"Pleasure to meet you, Blue and not blue," he says with an amused chuckle. I laugh lightly with him, however wanting to sink through the ground into a vortex of agony and never face him again. Why am I like this?

"Thank you for rescuing me, by the way, or I'd be even more embarrassed." If that's now even possible.

"Don't worry about it," he reassures with a smirk playing on those deliciously plump lips of his. My heart almost melts at the sight.

I feel like I've made such a bad impression on him, it's better if I just leave before I make myself look even more stupid than I already have.

"I think I have to go back to my friends now, but it was really nice meeting you, Jimin. I guess I'll see you around," I say while smiling wide, before turning around with a quick wave and make my way back to our table. Meanwhile, my heart was hammering against my chest, as if trying to break out. A warm, fuzzy sensation filled me as I thought back on our short -- and immensely embarrassing -- encounter.

Even though I probably managed to make myself appear as a complete dumbass in front of him, I still received some kind vibes from Jimin. He was so much nicer than Taehyung. But I somehow couldn't let go of the weird feeling that I've seen him somewhere before..

Where is he?

Jimin texted me saying that he was in the library, but here I am, looking like a lost duck searching for him without any sign of him being here at all. I sigh deeply as I continue my search. However, I stop in the middle of an aisle when something -- someone -- catches my eye.

Blue.

My amusement sparks to life as I watch her struggling to reach for a book. I cross my arms and lean one shoulder against a bookshelf, as the edge of my lips curve upwards at the entertaining sight in front of me. However, that smile immediately dies out when she suddenly loses her balance.

Idiot! Why didn't you just use the stool?

Preparing my body to sprint over to her before she collides with the floor, I freeze before I even managed to blink when someone got there before me.

Jimin.

Immobilized, I keep my position as my eyes never leave the sight of his arm wrapped around her waist. For each second passing of them conversing and laughing, I feel something igniting inside me. Seeing her flustered like this caused a fire to rage inside my body. I didn't even acknowledge the fact that my fists were clenched, hard. Confusion overwhelms me as the only thought going through my mind was to punch him.

She's too good for him.

But are you any better?

I almost frown at myself over the thoughts I was having. What the hell was this feeling? Anxiousness mixed with irritation slowly started clouding my senses, causing my jaw to clench tightly.

I didn't mind how he manipulated anyone around him, like the master manipulator he is -- the worst one out of us. I've never cared about any girl he's ever been with, ever. I didn't even care when he broke them completely out of their minds.

Except now.

For the first time ever, I refused to let him do this -- not to Blue.

"'Sup V, did you wait for long?"

The sudden appearance of my friend caused me to finally break out of my deep thoughts, making me realize I never noticed that they had stopped talking.

I slowly shake my head, "Nope. Let's get out of here." And with that, we exit the library towards another place to study at. "Did you find the book?" I ask. A second after, an object suddenly blocks my view.

"Here it is! Gotta ace that upcoming test, or else my parents will kill me."

I chuckle as I move the book that Jimin had shoved right in front of my face before I accidentally walk into a wall. Underneath the charming and cute personality of his, lays an incredibly smart side of Jimin -- smart without choice though. Having both brains and looks, Jimin appears to be extremely attractive and irresistible for many -- even guys.

"Jimin-oppa! V-oppa! Annyeong!" Some giggly girls suddenly greets us as they pass by. Jimin happily greets back, winking at them. I don't even care to throw them a single glance, making them disappointed.

"Aww come on V, don't be rude like that to the ladies."

I roll my eyes at Jimin's words before monotonously mutter in response, "I don't care."

"Well then, more for the rest of us," he simply retorts with a smirk, again causing me to roll my eyes in annoyance.

I honestly had no idea what was going on with me lately. Ever since I shared those small encounters with Blue, I couldn't deny the fact that I craved something from her. She was indeed something else. No one has ever treated me the way she does. She provokes me, in an amusing way.

That first day in detention sparked my interest, especially when I did my little trick where I leaned towards her, making her believe that I was going to kiss her. To my astonishment, she wasn't affected at all. I've always gotten what I wanted when doing that and it never failed, because afterwards I would suggest to help her "study". I honestly can't even count how many girls I've hooked up with by doing this. They were usually just straight up dumb like that, which is why I never even felt sorry for breaking their hearts.

And this applies to all of us. Yoongi, Hoseok, Namjoon, Jin... The worst ones are probably me, Jimin and Jungkook. We knew exactly how to make the girls want us to the point they would beg for us.

Until I met her.

She was without a doubt different from all the girls I've ever met, just something about her was nothing like I've encountered before. She was a challenge, indeed, treating me like no girl has ever treated me; like she's not interested.

And that excited me.

But that's what frustrates me the most; this isn't like me at all. I even suspect that the others are starting to notice something going on. However, I simply couldn't help it. This was extremely thrilling for me. It was refreshing, almost.

As we walk through the mildly crowded hallways, something was bothering me about Jimin. Everytime he talked with a girl, he brags about it, telling me all about his plans to seduce them. But he was quiet. Not a word about Blue was coming out of his mouth, and it made me extremely suspicious. Was he planning something? Is he keeping her as a secret from us?

But one thing I was definitely positive about;

I won't let any of them touch Blue.
