Jeon Jungkook was better than most of the student in Hansung High School. His teachers knew it, his peers knew it, he himself knew it.

You can call him narcissistic but for Jungkook this was just a simple fact.

He was rich, handsome, smart, athletic and one of the best dancers in their dance club. On top of that, he had a likeable personality and an aura that attracted people to him like moths to a flame. So he expected the popularity that came as soon as he started high school.

The only person Jungkook would share his toys with was Taehyung. Even after Park Jimin, their friend in kindergarten had tried to bribe Jungkook with gummy bears in exchange of getting the right to play with his Iron Man doll, Jungkook had refused. No touched his Iron Man, no one but him and Taehyung.

They would spend the whole night awake and giggling under their blankets during their sleep overs, sharing stories about aliens and lions and bunnies and Iron Man. At morning their mothers would find the two toddlers cuddling together and take a photo to add to their almost full 5th album.
