Jimin’s POV

When I slam the door of my locker closed, I almost slam my head in.

“Jesus, easy there Jimin!” V frantically exclaims, pushing me back gently and closing the locker door before whispering fiercely, “How much exactly did you drink last night?”

I shut my eyes and lean my head against the cool, metal surface of the locker door. It feels too good against my drilling headache that I am almost tempted to stay there for the rest of the day.

“I’m not that bad.”

“Bull.” I can practically hear V’s eye roll. “You’re moodier than normal, which by the way is pretty torturous if you only were me, and you’ve been having this eternal scrunched up expression on your face as if you were by some gay guy or something.”

I freeze in my steps as V turns around and bumps fists with Jungkook.

“Jungkook! What’s up dude?” V grins. “Man, you’ve grown.”

Jungkook laughs while I still stay frozen, my back to him. The only one I can see is V and only through my peripheral vision. “Yeah I have. I’m no longer an extreme shorty huh?”
