Good things come to an end. Just like Bad things come to an end.

Lust Games



"Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen to the 74th annual Belle Graduation Ceremony." Mrs. Choi proudly welcomed the honourable students, families and various special guests called on by the school. Some of which Jinwoo could recognize from tv shows. Probably took up acting while they were studying in Belle. Jinwoo felt his spine shiver as the state of the art surround sounds and speakers mimicked the Principal's gentle yet demanding voice. Or maybe it was just because the theatre's air conditioning was set to maximum Antarctica. Jinwoo always wondered how every dam teacher or staff from the school had some sort of all out scary side. It was the opposite for Mr. Lee, all out scary, grouchy and loud during the day while crackhead and extremely nice whenever he left the school for a nature involved trip. Jinwoo could still recall how extremely nice his homeroom teacher was 4 years ago in the survival camp. In fact, Jinwoo recalled a whole lot of things that happened during his first year in the Private High School for Spoilt Privlidged Learners.

Tonight was a special night. His graduation night, or rather his year's graduation night. Though as special as it was, or the series of awards Mr. Lee had told him he would receive, all Jinwoo could really wish for was for his parents to sit alongside him. And so Jinwoo couldn't help but feel alone as he sat with two empty seats to his left and to his right on the white linen covered table that had a small white card with his name "Kim Jinwoo". Jinwoo looked around, trying to search for the rest of the baboons. Seungyoon and his family were probably seated all the way at the front. Being a massive contributor to the school meant that you would usually be seated in the best spots. Taehyun probably came alone too, though no sight of him whatsoever. Seunghoon was 3 tables away from Jinwoo, though Jinwoo felt that it would be extremely rude if he just walked up to the famly and randomly joined it. And so nonetheless, Jinwoo laughed dryly at himself. The same feeling crawling up his body. A feeling of being outcasted. Alone. Different.
Though no matter how much times he convinced himself, or talked some sense to himself.
He would always feel alone.
Sure, Hanbin would be consistently there for him. In fact the other offered Jinwoo to move in with him numerous times. Numerous. Alot. Infinite times. However Jinwoo's answer would always be a consistent no, followed by a pout from the other before Hanbin back hugging him. Though over the 4 years, Jinwoo was able to find a better job with a much, much, very much better pay. However this didn't stop him from visitng Peaches and Cream now and then, to see Fei and the others of course. Jinwoo heard that the owner which no one knows to this day who it was apart from the manager which kept his mouth shut at all times, was selling the business. When Fei heard this she straight away put her hand up to buy the place. It was surprising at first, knowing Fei, she wasn't the type to go around bragging about owning a protitute house. Though as she talked about it more, Jinwoo was more than happy to support her future plans. 

And so after learning a variety of subjects such as business and accounting in Belle, Jinwoo was able to take up the position of Personal Accountant. Though the actual amount of work was completely ludacris. And it wasn't his most favourite job either. It was just... too easy surprisngly. Jinwoo actually pleaded to receive more work and errands, even begging on his knees to manage some of the new properties. However Jaejoong's answer would always be a consistent no, followed by Jinwoo pouting. Followed by Jaejoong ruffling his hair.
Seriously, the idea of Jaejoong even needing an Accountant was just plain...ugh.
But then again thanks to some decisions Jinwoo had advised, Jaejoong's assets were somewhat increasing especially the resort he built in Jeju. So maybe in a few months work will be more busy and productive.
In the mean time, Jinwoo still insisted in living in the same old, crappy apartment. However due to better pay he got the whole apartment renovated. Not too modern or sleek. No expensive toilets that clean your for you. No electronic house systems that detect your every step. Certainly no weird life like female mannequin like the one Seunghoon had in his wardrobe. Jinwoo had it renovated to a modern version of the old house he and his family used to live in back in the village years ago. A tribute to his father and mother who passed away around 2 years ago. Now a family portrait of Jinwoo as an 8 year old proudly hangs in the middle of the living room wall.
Even if now he was more successful and could move out if he wanted to, Jinwoo decided to stay. He liked living in that area. No other neighbourhood contains Ren and Baekho going at it week after week. The couple insisted that it still wasn't them making all the moans and groans but rather Sungjae and Minhyuk, though working for Jaejong usually meant that Jinwoo has various opportunities to see who was renting what apartment. Turns out Sungjae and Minhyuk had stopped renting that apartment around 3 years ago and had moved into another property owned by Jaejoong. And so Ren's excuse for last night's noise wasn't exactly true. Plus, no one else in the apartment complex could scream as loud as Ren did. Dam, Baekho must be some beast in bed.

Jinwoo's phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket. He pulled out his Samsung Galaxy s5 gold and searched through the messages. Jinwoo had recently upgraded his phone from the old Nokia Brick Phone. It's not like the Nokia wasn't working anymore, heck it could probably still function even after Jinwoo dies. However for business purposes he needed a more 'professional' look, so hence this. Though Jinwoo still kept his Nokie Brick Phone with him at all times. You never know when and where someone might you. It was said that the Brick Phone could slay the mightiest of beasts with a single throw.

Hi :)
-Hanbin to Jinwoo

Hi yourself. I'm here alone :(
-Jinwoo to Hanbin

Sorry, I couldn't come. I was in the middle of getting dressed when something came up.
-Hanbin to Jinwoo

There's always something that comes up -.- What is it this time.
-Jinwoo to Hanbin

Guess who got scouted and got a contract to a company? :) :D <3 <3 <3
-Hanbin to Jinwoo

You better not be joking. >: (
-Jinwoo to Hanbin

Oh yeah? Well would you believe me if I said Seungyoon and Taehyun are going out?
-Hanbin to Jinwoo

:OOOOOOOOOO HOLY HUMAN WATER FOUNTAIN! CONGRATULATIONS :D :D We should celebrate this. The graduation ceremony isn't that far from ending. Come to my apartment. I will buy that cake you always want :3
-Jinwoo to Hanbin

Human water fountain? Wtf are these descriptions?
As if I need an invitation to your house. Don't buy it. It taste way better if you make it yourself though :(
-Hanbin to Jinwoo

Fine. Since it is a special occasion. Anyway, since you finally got a contract, does this mean you'll stop going to the underground?
-Jinwoo to Hanbin

Mmmm...maybe :) Depends. Bobby and I still might go for inspiration.
-Hanbin to Jinwoo

Yah! Don't go there anymore. What if you beaten up or shot?!?!?
-Jinwoo to Hanbin

Don't worry, my love for you will be enough to protect me :) <3 xo AHAHAHAHAHH
-Hanbin to Jinwoo

Whatever.
-Jinwoo to Hanbin

K
-Hanbin to Jinwoo

Are you proud of us?
-Hanbin to Jinwoo


No
-Jinwoo to Hanbin

Nggaawww :( Bobby says hi


-Hanbin to Jinwoo

AHAHAHHAHA. HI BOBBY! Okay, see you tonight.
-Jinwoo to Hanbin


Jinwoo stared at his screen, smiling before sliding back his phone in his pocket.

"Our next award will be presented by Mr. Kim, head of the music department." Mrs. Choi announced as she gestured Mr.Kim to enter the stage.

"Thank you Mrs. Choi. On the very first day these boys attended Belle, they were very shy. Though now, 4 years later I can finally say that these boys- I'm sorry. Young men are the music department's pride and glory. Over the 4 years, I have had the privlidge to teach them and watch them grow into fine and talented artists. They have been competing in various competitions against other schools, taking home various trophies and titles. And so it is not only my pleasure, but also the music deparment's to present these young men the award they deserve. Ladies and Gentlemen, in recognition of outstanding work and talent I present the  Belle Music Award to Kim Seok-jin, Min Yoon-Gi, Kim Nam-Joon, Jung Ho-Seok, Park Jimin, Kim Tae-Hyung and Jeon Jung Kook. Or known by their band name, Bangtan Boys!!!!"

A majority of the students, mainly girls stood up and cheered on for the group. Many shouting out 'Oppa'. Jinwoo even heard 'Have my babies'. Though the other students who remained seated were various male groups. Jinwoo couldn't help but smile. He too would be disappointed if he had spent so much time and effort winning the Lust Games and swooning the hearts of the female student body. Luckily for him, he realized that 4 years of swooning was just too much. And it was an unreliable way of 'winning'.Though Jinwoo applauded Bangtan or BTS as they were called around school, for the group's efforts. Heck, Jinwoo even heard that the famous recording company Big Hit Entertainment had scouted the group during one of the interschool competitions. But nonetheless, those were only rumours, and all rumours weren't exactly true when it came to Belle.

"Thank you Mr, Kim and well done to our young men." Mrs. Choi entered the stage again. "Here in Belle, we have a scholarship programme. This programme was made by our head chairman Mr. Song years ago when the school was at its early years. The programme was designed to give the less forunate a place to study in our internationaly recognized and up to date facilities."

Yup. Very up to date. Especially the pool the school finished building a couple of months ago.

"Over the past cycles of the programme, there have been many talented and gifted scholarship holders that have entered and left the gates of Belle."

Golden gates of Belle. Or are the people just so used to seeing gold that they forget about it?

"However, 4 years ago our school warmly welcomed cycle 36"

Umm.. warmly? I'm pretty sure that me and the others were treated like crap.

"Now in cycle 36, there is a certain individual that we have watched over. His grades were exceedingly high above not only the other scholarship holders, but some of our top students as well. He has been recognized in various way in and around the area. Every 3 weeks or so calls were being made to the school about a particular Belle student helping out those in need. Volunteering for various charities. Dedicating his time to various children's hospitals. Even going so far as teaching his knowledge of math and reading to illiterate or intellectually disabled individuals, no matter how old or young they were. He has been recognized in the school as one of the top ranking academic students in both his junior and senior years.
"Every week in the staff office I would always hear something nice about him from his teachers." Mrs. Choi smiled as she turned her head. Her eyes peering in the direction of Jinwoo's table.

"And so, it is not only mine and the school, but also the community and the people's pleasure to present the Belle Representative Award to Kim Jinwoo."
As soon as Mrs. Choi finished her speech, everyone single student stood up as the anthem of a thousand claps filled the school theatre. even more so, the mike Mrs. Choi was holding amplified the sound to make it seem like there was actually 5000 people here tonight, inside the ctheatre.

...
....
.....
uhh.. what?
Jinwoo felt his body froze. All of what Mrs. Choi said was correct, the volunteering, the high grades. Everything. Though Jinwoo couldn't help but feel he didn't deserve such an award. He was just living his life.  Even the standing ovation from every student was overwhelming. Luckily he was placed all the way at the back, close to the exit doors so no one could spot him.
That was my name right? Kim Jinwoo? Mrs. Choi? Did you say Kim Jinwoo?
Jinwoo felt his body get hot as his face turned rosy red. Oh God, Human water fountain.


Jinwoo suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Do I have to help you out from getting embarrased again? Like how you were handing out the math books instead of the school diaries?" A deep voice filled Jinwoo's ear.
