Chapter 1: Prologue

Chapter Text

Min Yoongi, the perfect boy.

Students, ministry officers and even the minister himself, is well aware of this boy ever since he stepped into the gate of hogwarts.

Yes, he did live up to the Min legacy, maybe even exceeded the expectation from others. Taking OWLs when he was a second year, grabbing outstandings in every subject and then taking the NEWTs when in fourth year, and to no one's surprise, actually, he again managed to get outstandings in every subject he took without batting an eye. Got praised personally by the minister himself, and even got a lunch date with the head auror in the ministry ( everyone knows that the said head auror has a huge fucking crush on Yoongi. )

Captain and seeker of the slytherin quidditch team, head boy of the school, basically, just getting every honourable title offered in the school.

And most importantly, despite his achivements, where you will expect either a geeky looking boy or a boy with too much muscles for his own good that he can share with the whole school, he is none of that. He has a pale complexion, looks underweight and is definitely shorter than average. Ethereal face, long slender fingers that looks too good to be true on the piano keys. And damn, look at it, everyone will kill for his ass.

He doesn't have much friends, to be exact. He is not easy to approach when he has a resting bitch face twenty four hours (according to rumours, he has a resting bitch face even when he is bathing ).

But that didn't stop people from having crushes on him though, love letters overflowing on his desks, sometimes people even slips it into his books, confessions happening everywhere, there was one time when Yoongi was peeing and the boy next to him chose to confess at that very place and moment. It is so bad that Yoongi has to take his meals as quickly as he could back to his head boy private room to prevent anyone spiking his food with love potions, and whenever its valentines day, he starves himself while eyeing the mountain of chocolate piled in the rubbish bin in his room.

Some of his braver housemates states to him that Yoongi can detect the love potions by smell. Yoongi just shrugged at their remarks, because basically,

Yoongi had never fallen in love.

He is further confirmed about this fact when he tried making a love potion himself just for academic reasons. After making it, the potion is like water to him, he can't smell a thing, so he thought he got something wrong while making, but when he decided to test it on a dog in a pet shop in hogsmeade, it fucking worked. The potion he made was so strong that the dog had been knocked unconsious for about half an hour (which Yoongi was bored and free enough to stand in front of the dog and wait ) , then woke up and clinged on Yoongi so tight that he can't shake the damn dog off and had to buy it in the end.

He named her Holly, and well, she is a good companion after Yoongi gave her the anti dose of potion.

Yoongi has a boring life, to conclude. Before a certain gryffindor came stumbling into his life. Cliché, cliché.

Chapter Text

“Now off they go!” Seokjin screemed into the mic in excitement with Namjoon beside him.

Namjin the power couple, everybody in the school adores them. No teachers needs to sit beside them to monitor while they are commentrating, because, well, Namjoon, our dear Ravenclaw will control his Hufflepuff boyfriend when needed, and the teachers trusted him.

“This match of Gryffindor versus Slytherin is a summer holiday friendly match only, friendly only guys, so no need to get all heated- OH MY GOD JOON DID YOU SEE THAT-” Namjoon was then seen physically tugging the mic away from his boyfriend, then while lifting up his glasses a little bit, he said calmly into the mic.

“Sorry that Seokjin here told everyone to not be heated up and stuff like that when he himself is the hothead here, anyway, back to the match. Gryffindor just attempted a goal but got stopped by an excellent move by Sytherin keeper, I must say I think I have read that move in the book called quidditch through the ages, sure everyone knows this book – Slytherin now has the quaffle and now Slytherin chaser Amanda Gonnet flying through the bludgers, its quite easy for her since the Gryffindor team has fairly weak beaters, no don’t curse at me Gryffindors, it’s the truth – and she throws – scores! Ten to zero for Slytherin!”

The green sea in the stands roars while the Gryffindors moans with disappointement. Seokjin looked at Namjoon with puppy eyes asking him to give him the mic, and Namjoon can't help but comply, cause who can resist Kim Seokjin's charm?

Namjoon sometimes still thinks that he is dreaming while looking at Seokjin, what did he do in the past live to deserve such an amazing boyfriend?

Namjoon had been a nerd ever since first year, he got top grade in every subject (except defence against the dark arts ) , he didn't get bullied, no he didn't, but nobody crushes on him. He was fine, although that is quite a blow to his ego, he is a boy, after all.

In his third year, it was still early in the semester, around late September, he was in the seventh floor toilet, he found Seokjin sitting there secretly trying to brew a Felix Felicis. Seokjin was sitting there with tons and tons of potions refrence books opened around him and frowning while looking at his cauldron. Still haven't detected Namjoon's presence, he let out a frustrated yell and lay back.

Namjoon wanted to help, seriously, he too has secretly brewed potions before and knew how to brew the felix felicis even though he is still a third year. But this is Seokjin we are talking about.

Kim Seokjin from Hufflepuff. Head boy of the year, and not to mention, the second most handsome boy in school and the school crush ranked second. Namjoon has also secretly been crushing on the elder, hard, but was ever so subtle, not like his friends who kept on confessing and handing him love letters. Namjoon blushed at that thought, and he was trying to secretly walk away but at that very moment, Seokjin looked up. His eyes met Namjoon and raised an eyebrow.

Namjoon was flustered, extremely flustered but he realised that if he didn't manage to stutter out something intelligent, he will be doomed, for rumours of the school nerd of Ravenclaw is spying Kim Seokjin in the toilets. And to his relief, he did manage to do it.

“Um.. hi? Are you trying to brew the felix felicis?”

Seokjin’s eyebrows raised even higher, Namjoon didn't know that it was possible, but nevertheless replied. “Yes, as a matter of fact, how did you know?”

Namjoon said, “I spotted the ingredients of the potions and recognised them, because, um.. I have tried brewing one myself,” and he nervously scratched the back of his head, “I can.. help you if you want?”

Seokjin hesitated a moment before he nodded, gesturing Namjoon to sit beside him. Namjoon complied and walk to his crush. He was surprised at the fact he didn’t faint.

“So where are you up to?” Namjoon asked Seokjin while studying the mixture in the copper cauldron.

Seokjin sighed and say, “Actually I have finished adding the ingredients and all, but I just can’t activate it when I say felixempra.”

“Hm.. tricky.. but it can be solved.” Namjoon nodded confidently to himself and checked off the steps mentally one by one. So… Ashwinder egg is here, and so is horseradish, they looked like they have been heated.. good. Then, aha, hints of squill bulb juice are along the sides…Murtlap…thyme…Occamy eggshell…powdered rue- wait.

“Seokjin-sshi, did you not grind the Occamy eggshell?”

Seokjin looked surprised and after a few seconds, smiled sheepishly at Namjoon. “I guess I just put them into the mixture, no wonder.”

Namjoon grinned back, and say, “ I’ll help you do it. I know a reverse spell that can filter out the powdered common rue. Reversio.”

Seokjin handed his gloves to Namjoon and Namjoon took it, slipping them on his hands as he grinded the Occamy eggshell and added to it.

Seokjin watched in amazement as the third year completed such advanced potion-brewing skills so effortlessly. He faintly recognised the kid in front of him is called something like joon… as he had heard the name of the Ravenclaw prodigy somewhere before. This kid is a genius, and cute too, has anyone noticed the dimples? Seokjin thought.

“Felixempra!”

Seokjin shook off his thoughts and looked at Namjoon. Namjoon was grinning at him, and said, “Finished! And I’m sure it works!”

Seokjin nodded while smiling back, “Yes I’m sure it will work, cause its made by the cute prodigy of Ravenclaw.” Namjoon blushed and scratched the back of his head embrassingly. His crush just called him cute, gosh.

“So what is your name? You are a third year, right?”

“Yea, I’m Kim Namjoon.”

“Oh! Another Kim! I’m Kim Seokjin, but you may already know since I’m head boy,” Oh Seokjin yes I freaking do because you are my long time crush , “ so yea.. its sad that I need to go to class right now, but nice meeting you and thank you! Hope we meet again!”

Namjoon nodded and helped Seokjin pack his belongings, and saying a final goodbye, watched him leave the washrooms.

This is all happening too fast and Namjoon can’t bring himself to the fact that first, he met Seokjin, second, Seokjin now knows his name, and third, the most importantly, Seokjin just called him cute. This is too much, really.

Namjoon walked to the sinks and decided to wash his face when he found out that he is wearing gloves. Kim Seokjin’s gloves, to be exact. And the next second, Namjoon is having a mental break down.

“And pretty boy Seokjin back here and yes! Gryffindor snatched the quaffle and off they go. Oh, is that a new formation? Anyway I don’t know shit about formations - ”

“Seokjin, no cursing.”

“That is not cursing! You curse a hell lot mor- okay fine I’m sorry babe. Anyway quaffle back to the Slytherin and Gonnet again! Oh! Is that the snitch? Our new head boy is diving and GOD THIS IS DANGEROUS YOONGI NO- okay calm down Seokjin,” “Don’t talk to yourself, idiot.” Namjoon muttered but seokjin chose to ignore him. “Go go go go ! And now both bludgers are speeding towards the Slytherin seeker wait- WHY IS HE ZOOMING THE OTHER WAY EVEN I CAN SEE THAT THE SNITCH IS NOT THAT WAY? WHAT- oh. OH MY GOSH EVERYONE DID YOU SEE THAT!” Namjoon has already forgot that he has to monitor his boyfriend as he too is cheering. Everyone is.

Namjoon took a moment to calm himself and took the mic and said, “Everyone, gosh! What a move! Our Slytherin captain and seeker just pulled another stun right in front of our faces! To those who doesn’t know what is going on, let me explain. The Slytherin genius saw the snitch and both bludgers that are heading towards him at the same time and also the Gyrffindor seeker that is starting to trail right behind him. He chose to first ignore the snitch and flew towards the Gryffindor seeker so that now the bludgers are chasing after the Gryffindor, then faster than anything in the world turned towards the otherside and somehow finding the snitch in a matter of a millisecond and caught it! Sorry for the long ass explaination, shit I cursed! Sorry. Anyway, two-hundred and thirty to fifty and Slytherin wins!”

Both teams landed on the ground and the captain shaked hands again. The Slytherin captain then mounted his broom and flew to where Seokjin and Namjoon are. Namjoon handed him the mic.

The Slytherin captain looked up with a intimidating gaze and immediately, silence engulfed the quidditch pitch as everyone except Seokjin and Namjoon (yes, even the teachers) shivered, then Yoongi spoke.

“Hello, ladies and gentlemen. I am Min Yoongi, the headboy for Hogwarts in the coming year, and I would like to thank all the teachers and students that came to support this friendly match. This year, we are happy to announce that in help of some muggle technologies, we can now broadcast this very Quidditch match for first years that are coming to Hogwarts tomorrow to let you have a taste of what it is like here.”

Yoongi paused for a while before saying, “End of match. Now following the order of where everyone is sitting, starting from the stand on my left, you will all be using the portkey given to you by the prefect at your stand. Have enough rest at home and be on time for the train tomorrow. Thank you.”

People started to scramble around and there are swooshes and puffs everywhere where people just disappeared from thin air.

Yoongi sighed as he leave the stand with his right hand holding his broom. Seokjin, the ex-headboy and now sixth year came waddling with his boyfriend. “Good job, Yoongi! Again, you played well.”

Yoongi shrugged and say, “Thanks, hyung.” Seokjin smiled and then walked away while whining about food with Namjoon’s hands intertwined with his.

Yoongi felt a tiny pang of envy in his chest as he watched the couple but shook it off. With his personality and schedule, dating? It is impossible.

He walked towards his private room (head boy privillages) and took a shower, thinking about all the stuff he needs to do tomorrow, the first day of school and the first day as the official head boy. And the match, Yoongi isn’t familiar with muggle tech, but all he knows is that muggles will be watching through some rectangular boxes called television, and he briefly wondered if any cute boys are watching.

No shit, yes Min Yoongi is gay.

He chucked to himself as he applied shampoo to his hair and started scrubbing.

At the same time in a house where two soon-to-be Hogwarts first years are in, a certain Park Jimin is amazed.

“Tae, did you see that! That green guy was so cool! Like you know who I am talking about? The one who did the talking at the end! The head boy! The captain! And he is handsome!”” Jimin yelled.

Taehyung teased, “ooh, looks like our dear Jiminie got himself a crush even before he starts Hogwarts, amazing, isn’t it?” Jiminie tackled Taehyung while saying, “stop laughing, Tae!”

“Green is for the house Slytherin, Jimin, I’m sure that I have taught you that ages ago, you’ve got a lot to learn. And also, that Min Yoongi, well no offence, but he won’t like you.”

Jimin pouted. “Why?”

“My cute and naïve Jiminie, because Slytherin is a house for pureblood, even I can’t get into it since I’m half-blood but I’m happy with this, but you know, with Min Yoongi, a pureblood from the Min family, you don’t know about his family right? Well.. to make it easy, they are all purebloods and cold and holds heavy positions in the wizarding world in th ministry, and they are all like freaking genius. And that Min Yoongi, he is said to be the coldest of the bunch of Mins and also, the most talented Min. So, um.. you are a muggle-born so I don’t think this Min will every consider you.”

Jimin lookstoo hopeful for Taehyung’s liking when he said, “Muggle-borns can still be with Min the pureblood! I am sure of this! I have a feeling about this!”

Taehyung hesitated before replying because this is Jiminie, and this said boy has a weird sixth sense that can sense that can know predict the future in some cases. And Taehyung wants to know.

He stood up and said, “I’m going to the kitchen and getting both of us a cup of water to drink before going to sleep.”

Jimi nodded and said, “Thanks, tae.”

That night, Jimin dreamed about the very Slytherin captain and him dating.

Chapter Text

“Now dear, be good and have fun at Hogwarts!” Mrs Kim said while kissing Taehyung all over his face. Although Jimin’s parents are also sort of the touchy type, Jimin will never know how Taehyung can remain so calm after his mum bear hugs him and kiss him for ten minutes straight (not kidding).

“Ok, Jimin honey, I trust that you will be good, send some letters to us frequently, alright? We don’t want to miss out what our little wizard is seeing.” Jimin’s father says as he ruffled Jimin’s hair. Jimin’s mum added, “Yea, Jiminie, tell us anything, anything from when did you drink water to your love life.”

Jimin playfully hit his mum as he whined, “Mum! You are embarrassing!” His mother just chuckled, “As your mother, I need to know when my son gets all mushy and shy and flustered, aww, just think of our Jiminie, honey, looking so cute. Anyway, better get yourself a boyfriend before you come back.”

Jimin rolled his eyes and say, “I’m not talking to you anymore, mum!” His parents just laughed, loving how their son always gets all embarrassed and shy once his love life is mentioned.

Jimin is really thankful for having this pair of amazing parents. They accepted Jimin for being gay as wonderfully as one could imagine. Jimin came out to them just before his fourteen birthday, and his parents just replied him with a “We know, Jiminie.”

Jimin was shocked, he thought his parents, as wonderful they are, will still need to take a moment to take in the fact that their son is gay. And when he asked why they knew, they replied as if it’s the most obvious question in the whole world, “Jimin, as soon as we saw you blushing when another boy accidentally touched your hand, and also you didn’t talk about any girls at all, we already knew you are gay. And we are happy for you, Jiminie, we support you no matter what happens, and who are you.”

Jimin had a full break down that night and cried until he exhausted himself.

“Now, go join Taehyung and learn magic so you can be the cute little show-off once you get home!” His father said pointing to where Taehyung is. Jimin nodded happily, got ahold of the trolley and pushed it to where Taehyung is.

Taehyung waved a goodbye to his parents once he saw Jimin approaching, and pushed his trolley along with Jimin. He laughed as he saw Jimin literally skipping beside him, “Excited?”

Jimin turned to Taehyung, “Are you kidding, how can I not be excited when I am going to Hogwarts, going to see wizards doing all the amazing things and learning spells myself?”

Taehyung replied, “Jimin, its not just about learning spells, you know? There is still history of magic, and not to mention, learning how to fly a broom – ”

“I know, Taehyungie, I have read all our textbooks already!” Jimin exclaimed. Taehyung shook his head, how can he forget the fact that his best friend is a staright A and hard-working student?

“And about learning how to fly a broom, I am really interested, you know. I read in one of the books I bought for background reading, I think its called Quidditch through the Ages, that balance is what makes a good quidditch playler. And you see, here, my arm muscles? I am strong, Tae, I can literally lock you in a headlock right now.”

Taehyung immediately put his hands in the air as he said, “Yes, yes I know, no need to get all physical here, Jiminie.”

They talked and laughed as they walk towards the area between platform nine and platform ten.

“So here is where we get to the legendary platform nine and three quarters, right?” Taehyung nodded his head in confirmation, “Yep, that’s right. Now according to what my father told me, all we need to do is walk staright into this wall, focus, concentrate hard, and before we know it, we will be on platform nine and three quarters safe and sound.” Jimin nodded along what Taehyung said.

Taehyung then puffed out is chest confidently and stride over, far away from the wall, and said, “I will go first!”

“Tae, do you have to stand so far away?”

Taehyung didn’t reply, but walked in a fast pace towards the wall, at first, Jimin doesn’t have any second thoughts, but then, out of the corner of his eyes, he saw another boy walking right through the wall of the pillar next to the one Taehyung is using.

Shit- “Stop, Tae!”

Taehyung widened his eyes when he heard Jimin’s voice, and halted in a stop just in time before he will crash into the wall. He looked at Jimin worriedly, “What’s wrong?”

Jimin quickly walked towards where Taehyung is standing and ask, “Your father said there is only one wall that works, right?” Taehyung looks confused before he replies, “Yea, what about it?”

“Tae, I saw another boy walking through the wall of the pillar next to the one you are using. You…you are not using the wrong one, right?”

Taehyung hesitated for a moment, before muttering something that sound like “Let me check.” He used his fingers and started pointing at the pillars and counting them. After a few seconds, he turned back to Jimin and smiled nervously as he says, “Yea…I think I have gotten the wrong wall, Jiminie.”

Jimin let out a frustrated huff but laughed as he ran his hand through his hair. “You could have gotten yourself injured! How can you survive without me!” Taehyung just laughed as he said, “I can never survive without you, Jiminie. Now come on, stop sulking and walk to the right wall!”

At last, they finally managed to get through the correct wall. It feels surreal for Jimin, as he is muggle-born, he is not used to the old vintage style in the station. He looked around to take in everything around him, as many things as possible. He completely let Taehyung take him to wherever he is going to, let him tug along because this is the first sight of any physical thing that is related to Hogwarts (He didn’t count the match he saw through television, because, well, it’s not technically physical).

The feeling of walking through the wall had also been funny. It feels exactly like what he imagined a car will feel going through the carwash machine. The bricks are like rolling his body through, it’s not painful, it’s just slightly ticklish, and Jimin likes the feeling, to be honest.

“Chim, we should board the train now, done staring yet?”

Taehyung’s voice snapped Jimin out of his thoughts and he noticed that Taehyung has been standing next to him, smirking as he looks at Jimin. Jimin laughed nervously as he nodded, feeling a little bit embarrassed.

Jimin walked towards the trolley front (which is miraculously next to him, he didn’t remember dragging this heavy thing all the way to where he is standing as he got too lost looking around ). He lifted his carriers onto the train, he looked back at Taehyung and saw he was still struggling to lift his, and shook his head a little, deciding to find a empty compartment to settle in first then come out to help Taehyung.

He found one, and his eyes scanned the small yet cozy compartment in front of him. It is exactly like what Taehyung’s father has described to him. With comfy and homey sofas on both side of the compartment, and also some racks above their heads for them to put their luggage. He lifted his onto the racks and went outside again to help Taehyung.

The instant his head poked out in one of the train doors, he saw Taehyung still on the platform, struggling.

Taehyung looks like he won a million dollars when he spotted Jimin.

“Jimin! Help me!” Taehyung yelled as he was trying to pull all three luggage onto the train.

“I told you not to try to lift up all three at the same time, didn’t I?” Jimin started to scolding his best friend for life as he helped him lift his bags of weird stuffs that Jimin doesn’t want to know onto the Hogwarts Express.

Finally, after the exhausting yet uneventful chaos of helping Taehyung, Jimin and Taehyung walked into the empty compartment that Jimin found earlier.

“Taehyung! How on earth are we going to lift your carrier onto the racks when we can only barely manage to lift it onto the train?” Jimin exclaimed while laughing helplessly. Taehyung laughed along, and scratched his head while mumbling, “I don’t know too… wish I knew magic, I heard about a levitating charm once before but I forgot.”

They sighed at the same time. “Nevermind, Tae, let’s just put them here on the ground first. Maybe find a prefect or someone to help us later.” Taehyung nodded, trying his very best to put the heavy luggage in a neater position so that they have space to put their legs.

“Finally, we are heading towards Hogwarts!” Taehyung suddenly yelled out of nowhere but Jimin already got used to it. He smiled as he look out of the window, observing the people still rushing around the platform, and replied with a soft “Yea.”

After around some more minutes, the train let out a ‘hoot’, and started moving.

Taehyung became even more excited once the train started to move. He started rambling about the houses and stuffs he would like to do once he arrived Hogwarts. (Jimin managed to catch something that sounds like counting the tiles in the great hall, and decided he better not listen).

But then Taehyung’s rambling halted to a sudden stop looking like he remembered something.

“Jiminie, what did you dream about last night?” Taehyung asked curiously, with eyes squinting.

Jimin hesitated as he recalled his dream, which is dating Min Yoongi. He blushed bright red and muttered a “Nothing interesting.”

“Don’t lie to me, Jimin. You are turning red, that means it is something about your love life.”

“Um.. you know…its kind of stupid. But well, I sort of dreamed about…um… dating…you-know who.”

Taehyung laughed so hard that he fell off the sofa.

“You are dating you-know-who? Chim, I didn’t know you have a thing for people with no noses.” Taehyung managed to choke out a coherent sentence between his laughter.

“W…what? No noses? What do you mean- oh don’t tell me it’s that dark wizard, what’s his name, Voldemort?” Jimin asked. Taehyung continued to laugh as he nodded.

Jimin rolled his eyes as he exclaimed, “It’s not funny, Tae! And to shut you up, it is MIN YOONGI, happy?”

Taehyung immediately stopped laughing as he sit up very very straight, and looked at Jimin seriously. “You are not joking, right.” Jimin shooked his head, “Of course not! I’m serious!”

Taehyung stayed silent for a moment before smirking, “Then you will be having a very interesting year ahead, Jimin.”

There was an awkward silence before the compartment door is slammed open, hard.

Jimin and Taehyung immediately turn their heads towards the doors. There, stood a boy. By his face, he looks like he is in Jimin and Taehyung’s age. He has large doe eyes and his front teeth can be seen through his slightly parted mouth. They are a bit big and it does not make him weird, if anything, it just makes him look cuter, like a bunny. Perfectly styled chocolate brown hair, dressed in a white baggy shirt, black slim leather pants, and he is wearing a pair of timberlands. Although he still has a child-like face, his built is a completely different story, he is clutching two bags with zebra pattern, one bag a hand.

He is panting, and Jimin noticed that he looks as if he is disgusted but scared at the same time.

“Good lord, only two people is in this compartment, right?” He didn’t even wait for Jimin and Taehyung’s nod of confirmation before he open his mouth and speak again.

“You know, the apartment I was just in, at first I was sitting alone and then two seniors decided to join me. I didn’t mind. But then, I went to toilet just now and then when I came back, I can’t believe my eyes, and the two seniors, both of them are boys, are making out right on the sofa!”

“And the biggest problem, is that, I was scared out of my mind, and when other people ask me what is the matter, I told them exactly what happened, and then they just nodded and smiled and say something like, oh I know who you are talking about, and also some of them even said they are sweet! What is wrong with the people here? Can they like make out privately and not in a completely public place?”

The boy then took a deep breath and said, “You two are not a couple, right?”

Jimin and Taehyung looked at each other. Taehyung’s face read as ‘although we are not a couple but jiminie you are gay as hell’ and Jimin’s face read as ‘what he doesn’t know won’t hurt, Tae’

Jimin turned to the boy and said, “Um..nah, we are not a couple, in fact we are best friends!” The boy looked relieved and said, “Good. Mind if I sit here?”

Both Jimin and Taehyung looked at each other again, without replying.

Then the boy suddenly looked down, finally noticing the pile of luggage that are lying helplessly on the floor. He looked confused.

Eventually, Taehyung turned to face the boy.

Taehyung looked a little bit flustered as he explained, “Um… they are too heavy so we can’t lift it onto the racks. So we just kind of left it on the floor…”

Jimin watched as the confused look on the boy start to disappear, replaced by a small smile.

“Ah, yes. Um… I think I know a spell that can lift your carriers up.” The boy said.

Taehyung pleaded frantically and say, “Yes, please, please help us!”

“Hm…okay. Wingardium Leviosa!”

With that, all carriers lifted up at the same time. The boy waved his wand around like a orchestra conductor, conducting the directions of the luggage. Jimin and Taehyung watched in amazement, both of their eyes literally sparkled.

“Wow, I will be able to do this as I start in Hogwarts, right?” Jimin whispered to Tae, lowering his voice as much as possible as he don’t know if it will make the boy lose concentration.

“Now, there all done!” The boy exclaimed as their luggage has now safely landed onto the racks above. Jimin and Taehyung smiled and both extended their hands towards the boy at the same time, grinning, “I’m Park Jimin.” “And I’m Kim Taehyung.”

The boy took their hands, and grinned back, “I’m Jungkook, Jeon Jungkook.”

And this is just the start of a life - long friendship.

Chapter 4: You fell off the sofa

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

“So you are a pureblood.”

Jungkook huffed out a sigh at what Taehyung just said and leaned back onto the sofa, lying on it lazily. He nodded, and said, “You are a half-blood? Am I correct?”

Taehyung muttered out a ‘yes’, then took the packet of Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans that is lying on the sofa, took out one single bean and carefully examined it, “Jungkook, do you think this is a chocolate flavoured bean?” Jungkook leaned closer to Taehyung as he too, carefully examined it.

Jimin, who has been eyeing the two from when they bought the packet of beans, is extremely confused at their behavior, why are they so carefully examining it when they are supposed to be edible candies?

“Hey, you two are being ridiculous, they are just candies, why are you examining them like they are poisoned?”

Jungkook and Taehyung both looked at Jimin with wide eyes, and pounced. Yes, pounced, right onto Jimin.

“Jimin,” Taehyung looks into Jimin in a dead serious expression. “When they say every flavor, they really mean it. I once ate an ear wax flavoured one.” Jungkook followed, “Yes, And I once ate a rust flavoured one.”

Jimin made a disgusted face hearing the flavours mentioned, and said, “You guys are not kidding, right?” Both boys in front of him shook their heads. Shit, they are dead serious.

“Wait,” Jungkook suddenly says, “Jimin, how can you not know about the every flavor beans?” Taehyung, who has already resumed his examination with the beans explained for his friend, “Well you know, our Jiminie here is a muggle-born.”

Jungkook is still confused, because the pair had said they are best friends and had known they are wizards ever since they were young, so even though Jimin comes from a muggle family, Taehyung, who is a half-blood must have some at home and let Jimin tried it. Weird.

Taehyung, who seems to understand Jungkook’s racing mind, said, “Guess what, my dad once ate a poop flavoured one, and developed a phobia against it. So my house doesn’t have any flavoured beans. Surely, I have eaten those when our family visit some of my dad’s friends who got kids, but just never at home, so that’s why whenever Jimin come over to my home he can’t try them.”

Jungkook nodded along, “I see, so Jimin, know anything about our world yet?” Jimin then said excitedly, “Of course! I have read as many reference books I could read during the summer after I have received the letter!”

“Are you serious, you read books during summer, a holiday for you to relax?” Jungkook exclaimed, looking horrified.

“Jungkook, never compare yourself with Jimin when it comes to academics, it will just make you look bad.” Taehyung stated.

Laughing, Jungkook said, “A Ravenclaw then?”

Taehyung thought for a while before replying, “I think so, but maybe also Hufflepuff. Jimin is a real nice guy.” With that, Taehyung ruffled Jimin’s hair playfully. Jimin whined but didn’t stop Taehyung’s hands which are now starting to stroke his dark black hair.

They continued their conversation about some random stuff, and then Taehyung and Jungkook started a game of magic chess. Taehyung lost to Jungkook and dragged Jimin to his seat ( whom Taehyung has lost to for all matched of chess throughout his entire life. ) and asked him to help him revenge. During the game, Jimin made a conclusion that their new friend is a cheeky little shit, before meeting Jungkook, he already knew about magic chess, but he really didn’t know that he can play it the way Jungkook did.

“Queen, A5!” Jimin commanded frustratingly. “You better comply or else.” He added.

Jungkook , who is sitting in front of him, just smirked. Then, before the Queen could move, he unbuttoned his shirt even more, leaving only one button on and winked in the most flirty way Jimin has seen in his whole life to his Queen piece. “Listen, queen, if you don’t move, how about we spend an entire night on the astronomy tower and look at the stars in the skies that shines as bright as you?”

And to Jimin’s frustration, his Queen immediately decided not to move. “Urgh Queen! You seriously trust him, are you out of your mind? Fine then! I’ll ask another piece who is in their right mind!”

Jimin isi getting way beyond annoyed, he actually started to laugh at Jungkook’s chess playing skills. It is actually hilarious.

“Knight, B6!”

“Nuh-uh. Knight you are not going anywhere if you want a golden sword that is made for a chess piece straight from the Jeon’s underground vault.”

And the knight did not move as well.

Eventually, Jimin lost because, well, his chess pieces wouldn’t move at all. Taehyung decided to play again, seeming to gain hope again. Jimin yawned sleepily.

“Kook, do you know when will we arrive at Hogwarts?” Jimin asked Jungkook, as based on their conversation with him earlier, Jungkook seemed to know more stuff about Hogwarts than Jimin and Taehyung combined.

“I don’t think it will be too soon, one and a half hour I think?”

Jimin closed his eyes and drawled out a “Then I’m going to sleep, I’m sleepy.” “Sure, I am just going to play chess with Jungkookie. Kookie, rematch!”

Jungkook grinned and replied, “Sure, you are going to lose anyway.”

Although Jungkook and Taehyung are being way more loud and flirty than one should have while playing chess (even when they are playing magic chess) , Jimin still managed to fall asleep right next to them.
-
Yoongi combed his hair a little bit, then taking one last look at the full body mirror he conjured up, he stepped out of his compartment in a complete set of Hogwarts school uniform, and at the top left of his uniform, two badges is proudly pin onto it.

Headboy. Captain.

Yoongi is now having the responsibility to go into each and every compartment to remind the students to change into their uniforms and get ready to leave the train. Yoongi is already tired having to think about the work he needs to do. He just wants to lie on his bed in the mansion the Mins owned and bury himself into the seemingly endless pile of pillows and blankets.

But this is his responsibility, so he has to do it.

He repeated his actions, knock, open the door, open his mouth, talk, and close the door. Nothing eventful happened, unless you count the compartment that belonged to our dear Namjin couple, who had been making out when Yoongi walked in. Yoongi lectured them about keeping their PDA at the minimum and not scaring off the kids when Namjoon muttered guiltily, “I think we already scared off one.”

At last, there is only one compartment left, it is the one furthest from his. He knocked and opened the door.

Oh, three first-years. Two are playing chess, and although Yoongi just glimpsed at the chess plate, he already saw that one boy is losing miserably. The boy that is winning was smiling way too cockily and his entire shirt is not buttoned, all buttons let lose. Is it that hot in the compartment? Yoongi thought. Then another one is lying on the other side,sleeping. It is actually quite good that the system for Hogwarts has now changed and first years are 17 years old. If they are 12, God, it will definitely not end well for the grumpy head boy.

He put on his sort of intimidating face as he spoke, “We will be arriving shortly, please change into your uniforms.”

The two boys that has been playing chess when Yoongi arrived nodded to what he said, then looked at the other side of the compartment, glancing at the sleeping boy. Yoongi cannot clearly see his face as Yoongi is technically not inside the compartment, but never mind, time is tight, and first years takes the longest time to change.

“You two go change first. I will wake him up, no need to wait for him.”

One boy nodded and got up preparing to leave, and the other, smirked at Yoongi but nevertheless, got up and left with the other awake boy.

Yoongi raised an eyebrow but didn’t think any further about the suspicious gesture, as now his task is to wake up the now sleeping boy in front of him.

He walked inside the apartment, still wearing his ‘bitch-face’ as he himself called it, extended his hand to tap the boy on the shoulder, “Wake-”

Its too bright.

The boy’s face is now clearly seen, and he shines like a freaking sun, no, given his ethereal features, he should be described as an angel. Yoongi is awe-struck, and he nearly forgot to breathe and need to remind himself when he feels himself suffocating from lack of air. Now, Yoongi’s surroundings are completely ignored. He can’t even feel floor rattling as the train moves, he can’t – what more can he say, because fuck, the boy in front of him, is –

Breathtaking.

Soft black hair that is tempting Yoongi to stroke through, baby cheeks that made Yoongi wanting to squish, and Yoongi found himself getting lost in the slightly parted lips that are just so plump and sweet and too good to be true.

Yoongi suddenly saw a pair of hands reaching out to stroke the boy’s hair like he imagined just now, he was about to raise his voice and scold whoever it is, whoever the student is that he is too daring for their own good that they are touching the angel in front of him. And then suddenly realizing that,

It’s his own hands.

What the fuck? Now he is losing his sanity too? What even is this, who, who on earth is this boy-

The boy opened his eyes sleepily.

Yoongi retreated his hands faster than catching the snitch in any match. He stared at the boy with wide eyes. Okay, did the scary Min Yoongi of Slytherin just got caught stroking a first-years hair that he has know-no, saw just only for seconds? Oh my god.

Yoongi was thinking hard about how to cover up his embarrassing action when the boy helped him. Yes, helped him, as a matter of fact. Because the boy widened his eyes and squeaked, then all of a sudden, went tumbling down the sofa.

Yoongi took a step back, not completely knowing what is happening anymore. He already gave up on asking what happened to himself because the second he voiced out this question in his mind, he suddenly found another horrifying fact, and that is he forgot his own name. But luckily, he remembers now, yes he is Min Yoongi, okay, Yoongi, calm down, yes, and your heart too.

The boy looked up at Yoongi and said, “You…you are the green guy I saw in television!”

Out of all the things Yoongi expected the boy to say, he did not expect this. Green..green guy? What on earth. Television? As in-

Oh-

Yoongi smiled a gummy smile when he finally understood what the boy was saying, “You mean the Quidditch match yesterday? Yea, I’m the green guy. But my name is actually Min Yoongi.”

Oh my freaking god holy shit is that a smile on my fucking face? Min Yoongi? Hello are you still here? Yoongi thought to himself.

The boy looked extremely flustered and embarrassed as he nodded, “Ah…yes, I know. Um.. Yea, I know you are Min Yoongi.”

“Then why did you call me green guy?” Yoongi asked cheekily, noticing Jimin’s flustered expression and decided to tease him a little.

Park Jimin opened his mouth to speak, but closed it, as no words seems to come out. An awkward silence shared between the two and after a while, Yoongi looked at his watch and realized that they will be arriving in five minutes. He mentally curses, how long has he been watching the boy? The last time he checked, which is before stepping into this compartment, he still has 20 minutes to spare.

“Anyway, we will be arriving in five minutes, go change quickly and don’t be late.” Yoongi said, looking up from his watch to Jimin once again. Jimin seems hesitant, he opened his mouth again attempting to speak, but failed miserably again. Yoongi sighed, how he wish he can spend more time looking at the boy in front of him right now, but there are still duties to fulfill. So once again, he slipped right back into his headboy character as he hissed out a “Hurry!”

Jimin finally snapped out of his trance as he replied, “Ah yes! Yoongi-sunbaenim.”

“Call me green guy, its cute.” Yoongi didn’t know what happed to him but the words just came out, and way too fluffy and smooth for Yoongi’s liking.

Jimin giggled and bid a goodbye to Yoongi, then grabbed his uniform and rushed out of the compartments to the changing rooms.

Yoongi walked back to his compartment to get ready to leave the train, he slammed the door shut and sat down on the sofas, thinking about the earlier events.

Min Yoongi never shows his gummy smile to anyone (ahem, except, maybe um… yea ahem ahem, [whispers] holly.)
Min Yoongi never teases.
And most importantly, Min Yoongi never allows people to call him green guy without killing them.
So what the hell just happened.
_

“Jeon Jungkook!”

Professor McGonagall called out. Taehyung barely managed to deliver his ‘good luck’ as Jungkook ran to the stool and popped the hat onto his head like an overly excited kid at the toy store. Around a minute in silence past, before the hat yelled at the top of its lungs.

“Slytherin!”

Jungkook took off his head and grinned as he walked towards the Slytherin table with pride. The Slytherins whistled and clapped, part of the reason might be because they recognize his surname, Jeon. The whole Jeons family has been in the green house for God knows how man years, someone even says that they are one of the closer descendants of Salazar Slytherin himself. But yet, their bloodline still can’t be compared to the Mins, which is said to be direct descendants of Salazar Slytherin. Jimin scanned the croud of green sea, and spotted the green guy-oops, Min Yoongi nodding approvingly at Jungkook.

“Kim Taehyung!”

Jimin immediately turned his head back to the front an watched as his best friend climed up the stairs nervously. Jimin smiled to himself, Taehyung must be really nervous too.

The head barely touched Taehyung’s head as its yelled, “Gyrffindor!”

Jimin was shocked as he whispered to the kid sitting next to him, “That fast? Sure the hat did not got it wrong?” The kid whispered back, “The hat is never wrong, and yes, that happenes sometimes, some kids just has an extreme personality that is suitable for a particular house, maybe.”

Jimin frowned, according to what he read about the houses, Taehyung can be fitted into the Hufflepuff House too, if you ask Jimin, Taehyung is really friendly and kind.
A couple of names called out and it is Jimin’s turn.

“Park Jimin!”

Jimin freezed at his spot but somehow made his way up the stairs, maybe walking a bit too much like a robot. He sees Taehyung sitting at the Gryffindor table, giving him a thumbs up, and mouthing something to him as well. Before he can figure out what Taehyung is trying to say to him, the hat is plopped over his head by an impatient Professor McGonagall and his vision is covered.

Jimin, hm? Which house do you want to be in? A voice filled Jimin’s ears

‘Huh, I’m given a choice?’ Jimin thought.

Not everyone has this opportunity, darling. But it is difficult for me, you see, I see qualities of every house in you, so I am not sure where I should put you.

Jimin thought for a while, and finally replied.

‘Gryffindor, I want to be in Gryffindor, Mr Sorting-hat.’

And may I ask why?

‘Because my best friend is in there.’

___________________

“First years! First years, gather round, gather round!”

Taehyung and Jimin stumbled out of their seats, both with an extremely bloated tummy. They ate a lot tonight, and by a lot, just know that boys like their classmates eat a lot at their age, but they are still being judged , if the amount of staring given to them can be evidences to prove.

Their prefect introduced himself, then started explaining some basic informations and rules about Hogwarts. “Okay so this year’s headboy is Min Yoongi from Slytherin, as you may already know due to yesterday’s Quidditch broadcast, but anyway, he is right over there, talking to Professor Snape, head of Slytherin house.” Heads turn towards the pair, which is Min Yoongi and Professor Snape, who seems to be discussing something serious. “Okay first-years, look at me now, stop peeking at our headboy and Potions master. Oh and also, I must warn you that Min Yoongi is extremely strict if you ask me, maybe a little bit too strict even for a prefect, so don’t do anything that can cause the deduction of our house points. So now follow me, kids! We will now be heading to the Gryffindor common room and sort through your roomings!”

Once in the common room, the paper containing information about who is rooming with who is given out immediately. Jimin and Taehyung scanned through the names, screamed loudly and high-five each other as they spotted their own names, and found out that they will be rooming with each other! Luck must be on their side.

The night passed by quickily and Jimin has just changed into his pyjamas and was preparing to sleep when Taehyung sneaked up next to him and whispered, “We are going out to explore the school, you in?”

Jimin looked at Taehyung with wide eyes as he replied, “We? When did I said I am going?”

Taehyung smiled his boxy smile as he says, “We stands for Jungkook and I, we planned on the train while you were sleeping, so…you in?”

Jimin hesitated too long for Taehyung’s liking so he just forcefully dragged Jimin out of the Gryffindor common room as quietly as possible despite Jimin whisper-yelling his protests and objections the entire way down from their bedroom to the common room and finally to the outside.

But once outside of the room, Jimin gave up and said, “Fine, but we need to stick together.”

Taehyung nodded happily and said, “Good, now we just need to wait for Jungkook to turn up.”

Eventually, Jungkook arrived and the three of them started their ‘adventure’. They stated to each other that if ever they got separated, just wait at the entrance of the Gryffindor common room. Jimin was just about to say that he doesn’t know his way to the common room when Jungkook declared that they should get going. Jungkook walked in the middle of the three with a hand-drawn map of Hogwarts he created himself and acting like a tour guide. But nighttime Hogwarts is still a little bit too scary for the three first-years, so they clinged onto each other extremely tight.

They suddenly halted to a stop as Jungook talked about the portrait hanging on the left wall of the corridor. But Jimin saw another thing that interested him more than a portrait, and that is a sculpture of Harry Potter himself, which is located on the right side of the corridor they are currently in.

The three of them forgot the other’s existence and simply carried on what they are doing. Jungkook kept on ranting about the drawing, Taehyung is concentrating really hard on what Jungkook is saying as he doesn’t really have interest in what Jungkook is saying about the history of the painting but nodded along to keep Jungkook happy. And Jimin, too busy looking at the description plate of Harry Potter to see if there are any new facts for him to know and learn.

Then, Jungkook started his introduction to another painting that is more far away, so they walked towards there, completely forgetting about Jimin. The keep on their routine, introducing, keep on walking, and again, and again.

Jimin noted down in his head mentally about what he wants himself to remember from the description plate, happily, he turned around, expecting to find Tae and Jungkook behind him.

But to his horror, no one was here. Jimin is scared, like, really scared. He didn’t know what to do as this is his first day, he doesn’t know his way back to the room, he scolds himself on didn’t voicing out his objection to what Taehyung said earlier, meeting in the common room if they got separated, how stupid of him, he doesn’t even know his way back!

Anyway, he decided to try his luck and walk towards a random direction. After walking for around half an hour, Jimin is ready to give up. He swears he has been walking in different dirctions everytime but somehow he always goes back to the Harry Potter sculpture, he feels so hopeless.

Jimin didn’t noticed he started cryng as suddenly, a rough raspy voice next to him said, “Lumos. Student out of bed, state your name and house.”

He realized a wand was pointed at him, and its tip is glowing. Ah yes, he remembers this spell from the Grade One book of Spells, his textbook. Then he covered his mouth to muffle his scream as he found out who the person in next to him is.

Shit, does it have to be Min Yoongi out of all people?

Yoongi’s eyes has been hard when he found a student out of bed so late at night on their first day back at school, his eyes had been twitching from annoyance but when he found out that it was Jimin, he soften his expressions.

“Um…Gryffindor…Park Ji-”

Then Yoongi stopped Jimin from saying anything more. Because he suddenly noticed something, is the boy in front of him crying?

“Shit, Jimin, I- why are you crying?”

Jimin looked up confusingly as he asked, “Why do you know my name?”

Yoongi’s cheeks became a rosy red but managed to control himself an not stutter as he answers in the most normal way possible, “I heard it in your sorting.”

No, Yoongi will never admit to the fact that his eyes followed anywhere that cute boy from the train went once the boy stepped into the Great Hall with the other first years that he lose concentration on what he is doing and nearly poured tea into his ice-cream. He is also never going to admit that he really concentrated hard throughout the whole sorting to listen to the names until Jimin has been called. No, he will bever admit these facts. And now, poor Yoongi is suffering from a heart attack of seeing Jimin cry and is now swearing to every God or ghosts whatever and whoever that is available that he will kill whoever caused Jimin to cry.

Jimin explained to Yoongi guiltily about how he went out to explore the castle with Jungkook and Tae but got separated, and also how he doesn’t know the way back. “-and now you found me, and I am gonna get my house’s points deducted, oh, what a great first-year, doing the wrong thing on his first day.” Jimin pouted sadly as he said the last sentence.

Yoongi thought for a moment before saying, “Jimin, this is your first tday, I understand that you must be too excited, so I will let you go this time, okay? I will let just this one time slide, I am not going to deduct your house points, sounds good to you?”

Jimin replied, shocked, “Really? You are not going to deduct points?”

Yoongi firmly shook his head to further confirm to Jimin that he indeed won’t deduct his house points. Jimin let out a relieved huff of air and smiled a little bit.

Yoongi got up, he still has some time left before his shift ends, so he says to Jimin, “I am going to continue my patrol, wait- Expecto Patronum!” Jimin watched in amazement as glowing white mist shoot out of Yoongi’s wand and gradually shape into a form of a cat. Jimin immediately asks, “Oh my God? How did you do that!”

Yoongi grinned, feeling quite proud, “This is called a patronus, Jimin. It is quite advanced magic, but don’t worry, you will learn it later. My patronus will guide you back to your dorm, so follow him!”

Although Yoongi, again, wants to stay, he still can’t overstay his welcome, he shouldn’t make Jimin feel uncomfortable by clinging onto him for too long.

Yoongi was just about to walk away when he feels a light tug at his sleeves of his robes. He turned around and found an embarrassed Jimin saying, “Um… I know I might sound weird or even clingy but…I am scared, can you like accompany me to my dorm?”

Yoongi thought his ears are playing tricks on him, so he didn’t reply. Jimin is asking him to accompany him, did he listened correctly?

Jimin seems to think Yoongi’s hesitating to answer him means rejection, so his face got even more red as he says, “Ah! Of course if …you don’t want to its fine.. I don’t want to trouble you…sorr-”

Yoongi replied before his mind can stop him.

“OF course I can! Um…I mean why not?” Yoongi stuttered the second sentence because he found his tone… a little too happy and enthusiastic for Min Yoongi?

On their way, Yoongi tried not to blush when Jimin is clinging onto his arms so tight like his life depended on it. Jimin turned from clinging onto his arm to hugging Yoongi. And normally, any student that do this probably won’t survive to tell their achievement. But Yoongi let Jimin hug him, it actually has been years since someone except his mum hugged him and he finds it comforting. He awkwardly puts a hand on Jimin’s shoulder and felt relieved when Jimin didn’t shook him away.

Jimin flinched at every sound, even the rustling sound out at the gardens startled him, and Yoongi tried his best not to laugh.

They were walking down the stairs when all of a sudden, a wolf howling scared the shit out of Jimin and Jimin, attempted to cling on Yoongi even tighter (If it is possible). But Yoongi is fragile. So when Jimin uses such a large force to on Yoongi, he sent them tumbling to the ground, rolling across the floor, ad Yoongi felt their falling finally stopped when his back touched the wall, but the wall moved, and Yoongi figured out that it was probably a door.

They rolled down another flight of stairs again, and finally after what seems like an eternity, they reached the bottom. They would have gotten seriously injured if Yoongi didn’t cast a spell in the middle of falling to protect the both of them from impact.

Yoongi groaned as he got up slowly and scanned his surroundings. Oh no.

“Shit!” Yoongi curses as he realized what sort of room they are in right now. Jimin eventually stood up too as he timidly asks, decided to add call Yoongi more formally as the head boy beside him seems frustrated for some reason, “Um…Yoongi-sshi, where are we?”

Yoongi pinched the bridge of his nose irritatingly as he groaned once again while replying Jimin, “I don’t actually know the real name of this room, people just call it the damn room anyway. And before you ask me what is wrong with this room, to explain it simply, is that the door of this room openes for one time every one hour and will stayed unlocked for five minutes, and no exceptions. And don’t think that casting spells will work either, this damn door is immune from everything.”

Jimin looked at Yoongi while making a face, “Who the hell made this room, this is a freaking school!”

Yoong laughed, “This is Hogwarts, dude. Anything is possible. And I am going to lie down now,” with that, Yoongi lies down right onto the floor, “and I will suggest you to do the same, Jiminie,” What the fuck Min Yoongi did you just called him Jiminie- (dies internally) Calm down. Breathe. “And um…because we will need to wait for an hour.”

Jimin stared at Yoongi for a while before complying, he lied down and stared at the dusty ceiling, before asking, “How old are you?”

Yoongi got surprised by the question, “Um…I’m 21 years old right now. Fifth year. What about you?”

“I’m 17, sunbaennim. But my birthday is in October, so I will be 18 soon!”

Yoongi whistled. He got a young lad beside him, (Although he is not much older) as he hesitated for a while before finally voicing out the thought that has been bugging him and urging him to ask Jimin. “Jimin, can you call me hyung?”

“Really? I can?”

Yoongi nodded, “Yea, you can.” Jimin smiled brightly before saying, “Alright the, Yoongi hyung! Is this a evidence that we got closer?”

Jimin took some time to realize what he just said and its already too late now. He looked at Yoongi, but to his surprise, saw that Yoongi was laughing.

“Yes, Jimin, I think we did?” Okay what one earth Min Yoongi you never let people call you hyung not even Namjoon.

“Oh, and you got N.E.W.Ts, right? Although this is my first day here, but I have already read stuffs about the wizarding world this summer, I-”

“Oh you don’t know, well I finished mine last year, I didn’t skip grades but just self-study everything. Maybe you are a muggle-born so you haven’t heard of it?”

Jimin suddenly remembered what Taehyung has said before they set off for Hogwarts, he told Jimin that Yoongi is a pureblood, and probably won’t like, and won’t even want to be friends with himself.

Jimin didn’t find the heart to answer, as now, his mind is racing. He enjoys Yoongi’s presence, that was the main reason why he asked Yoongi to accompany him back to his dorm. Although he himself can barely survive if he went off by himself, but then, he did blush when Yoongi accepted.

In conclusion, Jimin likes Yoongi, but maybe this is just a cliché one sided love-

“Jimin?”

“Ah! Yes? Ah! Yea, I’m a muggle-born! Now maybe you won’t like me…”

Jimin was startled when Yoongi sat up so fast that Jimin feels a gust of wind. “NO! OF COURSE I WON’T- Ahem, I mean, no, of course not. ”

"Hyung? Why are you yelling?”

At Jimin’s question, Yoongi got beet red. Yea, why I did I yell? Yoongi thought. Aish, I’m so stupid, Yoongi thought, what the frick frack toe am I doing?

“Um… I…I don’t know.” Yoongi sighed as he gave up on a good excuse that can cover up what he did earlier.

They didn’t talk after that, letting the silence engulf the two. Although Yoongi really want to sleep, he didn’t, as he self-volunteered for the responsibility of keeping an eye on the door, so that when it opens, they can get out of the room.

Although the sound of one hour seems a long wait, it still went by in a blink of an eye. Maybe it is because an angel is lying right beside him, of course.

“Jimin, let’s go.”

The small form of the boy beside him didn’t move at all. “Jimin?” No, not any movement again.

Yoongi got up and inspected Jimin. He chuckled, because Jimin seems to be sleeping. Why is he always sleeping and why do I need to wake him up everytime? Yoongi thought.
Earlier, Jimin sounds really happy when Yoongi told them yes they got closer, so…Jimin wouldn’t mind what he is going to do next, right? Yoongi stared at his hesitating extended hand and gave himself a final push and encouragement. With a swift swoop, he successfully got Jimin on his back.

Jimin is light and Yoongi is thankful for that. He walked through the corridors back to the Gryffindor’s common room in a slow pace as he don’t want to wake Jimin up, he seems to be sleeping soundly. During their journey, Jimin’s head feel further forward and Yoongi’s nose was met with Jimin’s soft black hair. The smell of strawberry and lavender attacked his nose, and oh boy was it a strong smell. But Yoongi liked it.

Eventually, they reached the entrance of the Gryffindor common room, and Yoongi spotted the two other first years that he saw on the train. One is from his house, he remembered the kid’s name, Jeon Jungkook, and the other, who has Gryffindor ropes on him, Yoongi don’t know his name.

The two freezed as Yoongi approached them, and the Gryffindor already started blabbering out apologies, “AHhh! Ah Head boy sunbaenim! Um.. sorry! We didn’t meant to be here? Can you like pretend you never saw us? If yes then we will pretend we have never saw you too because you seem to be out of bed too! So-“

Jungkook elbowed Taehyung right on his ribs and hissed, “Idiot, he is on night patrol!”

Taehyung’s face got redder but still continued, “Um, yea! We didn’t really want to be here but our friend- JIMIN?”

The reason Taehyung got so much time to do is ‘reasoning’ with Yoongi is because he started talking way before Yoongi even approached them, he started talking once he saw Yoongi. So Yoongi took his time, leisurely walking towards the pair and then, still ignoring them, tugged Jimin from his back to his front so that now he is carrying him bridal style.

“Sunbaenim! Oh thank God!”

Yoongi nodded and extended his hands, handing Jimin over to Taehyung.

“This time, I will not deduct your house points, so please make sure there is no next time. You, I don’t know your name, please carry Jimin back to his bed, he feel asleep. And Jungkook, right? Follow me to the dungeons.”

Taehyung was ready to voice out his objection as Jungkook already sensed what he is about to say, “Taehyung, the Slytherin dorms are in the dungeons, sunbaenim is not punishing me or whatever you are thinking about monsters or stuff.”

“Oh really? Then I will be going! Bye.” Taehyung smiled sheepishly, before he said the password and disappeared to the Gryffindor common room.

Once inside, Taehyung went up to their room and tugged Jimin in bed, before grinning and whispering, “Oh Jiminie, if only you know what you saw in your dream is true.”

Chapter Text

“If every class will be like Charms, I will really fall in love with my studies.”

Taehyung rolled his eyes at what Jimin just said while Jungkook laughed. Taehyung exclaimed, “Dude, that is just because you are luckily good at charms. The class is a disaster for me.”

It is the time between lessons and the three boys are walking down the bustling corridors while hugging huge piles of books. Charms is their first lesson, and the Gryffindors are sharing it with Slytherins, so that means Jungkook is also with them.

“Don’t worry, Taehyung. Jimin and I will help you and make sure you get a pass in the class.” Jungkook added.

“I hope so.” Taehyung pouted.

A voice in the corridor suddenly rang loud and clear, “Guys! I just saw Professor Trelawney roaming the corridors!”

Several gasps were heard throughout the hallway, mostly from more senior students. And Jimin found himself very clueless of what is happening, why is it such a big deal? It is just a professor walking among the students, it happens every now and then.

“Taehyung? Who is Professor Trelawney?” Jimin asks as he turns his head towards Taehyung and Jungkook, only to find the two boys were already discussing between themselves and his question is rudely ignored.

“Taehyung! Jungkook!”

Jungkook finally came out of his discussion daze with Taehyung as he looked at Jimin, “Yes?”

“I asked you guys who the hell is Professor Trelawney, but no one seems to be listening to me. What’s the big deal anyways?”

Taehyung put his hands on Jimin’s shoulders, shook him in a desperate manner, and pulled him close, saying, “Professor Trelawney, is a weird, nerdy, scary, yet powerful professor. She was the one that predicted Harry Potter will be Voldemort’s downfall. She teaches divination in here, but you can almost never see her except for the start of year banquets and her lessons. She holes up in her quarters all day long, God knows what she is doing. She-“

Jungkook got annoyed at the long explanation, so he cut in and said, “So, in conclusion, the sun must be rising from the west if Trelawney is out here now.”

“Yes, that’s exactly what I’m going to say.” Taehyung glared at Jungkook for interrupting, but Jungkook doesn’t look apologetic at all.

“He’s not lying guys!”

“Oh my God, never have I seen-“

“What the hell, look!”

The whispers rose and heads started to turn to a certain direction. So naturally, Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook raised their heads, wanting to catch a glimpse of the rare sight as well. Students were parting ways like the red sea, providing way for the odd-looking woman to pass through. The professor walked with confident fast little steps but she had her head casted down, eyes touching the crystal ball she is holding with her hands. Just as she reached where the three boys were standing, Jungkook dragged both the robes of Taehyung and Jimin to the sides of the hallway as both seemed to be too fixed staring at the Professor and forgot their surroundings.

But, the Professor came into a halt in front of Jimin, and turned to face the said boy. She lifted her head from the crystal ball as she stares at Jimin, eyes literally shining.

The hallway is filled with a lot of students, and it is also an increasing number, as more and more came to watch the Professor. Everyone held their breath and stayed absolutely silent, wanting to know exactly what is happening.

The Professor walked straight up to Jimin, the heels she is wearing giving her a height advantage as she towers over the now terrified student.

“Your name, boy?” She barked.

Jimin turned his head to his left and right, confirming that the professor is indeed talking to him.

“M-Me?”

“Yes, you.”

“Park J-Jimin, professor.”

Professor Trelawney took a step back, as she scratched her messy curly hair thoughtfully. She seems to be thinking as she squeezes her eye shut, quietly mumbling words that Jimin failed to catch quiet fully, but heard surnames thrown here and there.

“Park, I don’t remember any Seers with the surname Park. Your parents great at divination? Mr.Park?”

Jimin shook his head timidly as he replied, “No, professor. I’m a muggle-born.”

With that, the professor regained her shining eyes as she looked at the boy curiously and exclaimed, “Muggle-born you say? Good heavens, I have never come across any muggle-born Seers, and to top that you, my dear boy, has the strongest aura I have ever seen! What a discovery… tell me Mr.Park, you think you will be a good contribution to the world, or a threat? Your abilities may cause imbalance, oh god, come-”

“Sybill, any problems?”

Everyone including Jimin and the professor turned to face the authoritative new voice that joined the conversation. There stood Professor McGonagall, looking so very strict and terrifying dressed in her signature green gown. Peering through her glasses, she spoke again, “Mr.Park, causing any trouble?”

Professor McGonagall recognised the quite terrified boy that is cornered by the divination professor, for Park Jimin is in Gryffindor, where she is head of house for. Although there has only been a meeting between them, the professor has already labelled the Park kid as polite.

All in all, to find Sybill out of her hole, using effort to be out and cornering the kid is pretty concerning to Professor McGonagall.

“No, not at all, Minerva. Quite the opposite actually. I already felt a strong sense of Seer aura yesterday at the start of term banquet, but thought it must be some guests. But I woke up this morning feeling the same aura again, Minerva! Naturally, I looked into my crystal and it led me straight to this, this Park Junmin.”

“Um, its Jimin, professor.” Jimin corrected timidly, to which both professor seemed to miss.

McGonagall asked, “So you just came here to see him?”

“Yes,yes. And its perfect. Janmin is in Gryffindor, yes? I want to ask if he will be able to take Divination classes this semester, such potential should not be wasted, you see. There aren’t many Seers in these generations of students, Minerva, and to see such raw potential… I can’t possibly let this pass by me.”

Professor McGonagall pondered for a moment, before nodding her head, “Certainly make sense. Only if the extra class doesn’t clash with the schedule and that Mr.Park is okay with the arrangements. Are you? Do you want to take an extra class? It will be exhausting.” With that she turned to Jimin.

Jimin is too overwhelmed to respond, and Taehyung nudged him and whispered, “Say yes, dumbass. Trelawney never says a student has potential.”

So, listening to his best friend’s advice, Jimin nodded his head robotically as he agreed, “Sure, I-I mean. Yes, I can take an extra class, professor.”

The divination professor gave Jimin a toothy grin as she says happily, “Good, good! The seventh years divination class is right after your last classes for the day, as you are in first year and you have shorter time-tables than them. Every Monday and Friday, okay? Today is Monday don’t forget, join us at the North Towers after your last class.”

“Mr.Park, do you know where the North Towers are?” McGonagall questioned.

Jimin shook his head.

McGonagall stated, “Verbal answer next time, Mr.Park. Not to worry, you have Transfiguration for your last period today right? I can arrange a student to take you to the divination classroom.”

“Sorry! Okay, um.. thank you.” Jimin squeaked.

With that the two professors smiled at each other before turning in opposite directions to leave. The student population started to move as well, but all at once to Jimin’s direction, where they started to bombard Jimin with questions after questions.

“Park! Why didn’t you tell us you are a Seer?”

“Can you see what grade I will get for my Potions essay? I think I fucked up.”

“Help me see if I can make it to the house quidditch team this year!”

“Do you think Min Yoongi will date anyone this year?”

“Will I finally get a girlfriend this year?”

Questions ranging from asking for Jimin’s personal information, people’s academic stuff, to romantic relationship and gossips were all thrown to Jimin, to which Jimin all replied with a small “I don’t know.” And a overwhelmed shake of head, slowly backing into the wall with the entire crowd cornering him. Taehyung and Jungkook were still by his side, shoving people away that got too close and tried to wiggle their way out but to no avail. Afterall, there had never been a Seer in this generation of Hogwarts students, and to be acknowleged by Trelawney is a big deal afterall. Jimin prayed to whatever God listening to get him out of here, who wants their first day at a new school to be like this? Certainly not Jimin.

Some rational senior students eventually started to tell off their peers, telling them not to corner the first years. But their words were clearly ignored as people don’t really care, since to them, they are just three unknown powerless first years on their first day in Hogwarts.

Finally, Jungkook seemed to have finally reached the bottom line of his patience as he yelled out with a booming voice, “GET THE FUCK AWAY, PEOPLE! YOU DON’T WANT TO FACE THE JEON CURSES!”

Jungkook didn’t really want to throw out his family to scare away people, but his bottom line has been reached. Immediately, the crowd seemed to melt away upon hearing his threat, as it is widely famous that the Jeon family has a few powerful tricks up their hands. Some recognised Jungkook as a Jeon and cursed themselves internally for not realizing sooner. The other students cower away as an angry Jungkook led his two friends out of the crowd and towards their next classroom.

“Thanks, kookie.” Jimin said thankfully, arms linking themselves with Jungkook’s.

Jungkook nodded grimly as he replied, “No problem, chim. I didn’t really want to threaten them, but they seem to think we are just some baby wizards who can’t face them.”

“What Jeon curses do you know though? I want to see!” Taehyung suddenly whispered excitedly.

“I know some pretty dark shit, I can perform the easier ones, but actually there are a lot that I don’t have control over, so I guess we have to wait a few years.” Jungkook blushed and smiled sheepishly as he admitted the truth.

“Nevermind, that’s still great though!” Jimin added encouragingly.

“We have potions next, right?”

Jungkook nodded at Taehyung’s question, adding “Yea, my head of house, Snape, will be teaching. Heard he is an asshole.”

-

“In the potions classroom, don’t touch anything I didn’t tell you to. Don’t smell anything I didn’t tell you to. Don’t taste anything I didn’t tell you to. Don’t talk when I am talking, or I am working. Try to bring your brain to the lesson, and most importantly : Don’t. Try. To. Be. A. Smartass. When you. Are not.”

Upon three minutes of meeting Professor Snape, Jimin has already put a big red label mentally on Professor Snape’s head that reads ‘DANGEROUS ASSHOLE. KEEP OUT.’

The Gryffindors are also having potions with the Slytherins, and during breakfast, some of the senior students in Gryffindor that somehow knows about their lesson arrangement has warned both Jimin and Taehyung that they are doomed, as the professor will show clear favourism to his house and deduct house points from Gryffindor for nearly everything they do. A fifth year told the two first years that Snape once deducted twenty points from Gryffindor because the professor say the said fifth year is breathing too heavily for his liking.

Professor Snape stepped off his little podium at the front of the classroom, the clicking of heels echoing loudly in the classroom. He started to pace around as he say, “First, let me see how helpless this year’s class is.”

Snape reached Jungkook, peered down and look at his face before saying, “Ah, Mr.Jeon. Your brother was quite a potion master. Let’s see about you. Looking at the ingredients in front of you, what potion do you think we will be brewing today?”

Jungkook gave the potions a quick glance before muttering, “A potion for curing boils, professor.”

“Good, as expected from a Slytherin. Ten points to Slytherin.”

“Mr.Foster, ” Snape is now on another Slytherin, “What is the use of Flobberworm mucus?”

The Slytherin looked terrified with eyes bulging out, he thought for a solid minute before managing to whimper out a “I don’t know, professor.”

Professor Snape dismissed his answer with a quick flick of hands saying, “Its your first lesson after all, you will know by the end of term.”

The Slytherin student casted his head down and Jimin just have enough time to cast a quick pitying gaze at the Slytherin before he heard his name being called.

“Mr.Park! Seer, am I correct?”

Jimin flinched at the booming voice and immediately turned to face the professor that is cladded in black. He answered, “Yes, professor.”

“You predict which question I will ask you?”

“No I can’t professor.”

With that, the professor sneered. “I don’t know, Park, I may have to take extra care with your homework and exam papers. Can’t have you predict the questions that will be asked, can we? Now, what is the use of Flobberworm mucus in a potion?”

Jimin, having already read all his textbooks during the summer holidays, answered immediately, “A thickening agent.”

Snape rolled his eyes, as he spat, “Another Granger, I see. Gryffindors.”

Jimin flinched again at the tone of his Professor and he twiddled with his fingers sadly. He felt a small pat on his back and turned to his left finding Taehyung smiling encouragingly at him, with a look saying ‘Don’t mind him’

“Mr.Kim! I didn’t say you can interact with other students. Tell me, how is dragon blood useful for common housewives?”

Jimin heard a student muttering out a dark “Kim’s fucked. Textbooks don’t have that, only extensive reading can save him.” He quickly cast a worried glance at Taehyung only to find his friend smiling at the Professor.

“Oven cleaner, professor.”

Snapes eyebrows twitched a bit, “Done some reading, Mr.Kim?”

“Yes, I read my mother’s Easy Magic for Housewives.

“Don’t be too proud of yourself, there are still so much you need to learn. A sixth year potion exam question, name the physical property and chemical properties of an occamy egg.”

Jimin doesn’t even know what an occamy egg is. He felt everyone in the classroom holding their breath as they wait Taehyung’s answer. A sixth year question? What the hell.

“Occamy eggs are made of pure silver. Chemical properties are that it gives lustre, so it is used in the potion Felix Felicis. Also, it is also surprisingly nutritious for the hair, so it is being made into occamy egg yolk shampoo. Though, it is ensured to never be produced in a mass amount given the danger and expense.”

“Kim Taehyung is it?” Professor Snape had his lips curled up to form suspiciously, something close to a smile.

“Yes, professor.”

“Your father taught you well.” Having said that, the professor turned on his heels and started walking back to the podium

Before anyone had the chance to question what that sentence mean, the professor spoke, “Today, we will be brewing one of the easiest potions in the world, too easy that I don’t think any teachings are required.”

“But, as first timers, I don’t want anyone of you to accidentally blow up the classroom because of using the wrong ingredients. In front of you, I have prepared all the things you will need to brew the potion for curing boils. Today, all of you will be working individually. Turn open to textbook page 12, and you will see instructions.”

Snape glanced at the clock that is hung on the wall, clapped his hands twice and barked, “Everyone begin! You have one hour before inspection!”

All students in the classroom scrambled to turn their textbooks to the correct page and start on their potion.

1. Add 6 snake fangs to the mortar.
2. Crush into a fine powder using the pestle.
3. Add 4 measures of the crushed fangs to your cauldron.
4. Heat the mixture to 250 for 10 seconds.
5. Wave your wand.
6. Leave to brew and return in 33-45 minutes.
Part 2
1. Add 4 horned slugs to your cauldron.
2. Take the cauldron off the fire before adding the next ingredient.
3. Add 2 porcupine quills to your cauldron.
4. Stir 5 times, clockwise.
5. Wave your wand to complete the potion.

 

After Jimin finished reading the instructions, he glanced over at Jungkook, to see the boy already taking out snake fangs from a jar, and then at Taehyung, to see the boy’s textbook still closed, yet he is already crushing the snake fangs into fine powder, and it looks like he is nearly done with the step. Taehyung seemed to feel Jimin’s eyes on him as he looked up from his pestle, looking over at Snape’s work desk to see him busy over some papers, he looked back towards Jimin and whispered, “You better hurry, you have to brew it for at least half an hour.”

Jimin nodded and got to work immediately.

-

He waved his wand just before Snape barked out a “Time’s up! Stop working!”

All the students stood back as the professor stepped off the podium and started his inspection of the potions made. He gave one brief sniff at one of the Gryffindor’s potions before taking out his wand from his robes and flicking it over the cauldron, making the potion disappear in a blink of an eye.

“Ten points from Gryffindor. Disgusting.”

The student who made the potion flushed and held his head down.

Snape made his way to a Jungkook’s cauldron, peered into the potion and gave a nod of approval. Then, he stopped in front of Jimin’s potion and frowned.

“Can you diffrenciate between clockwise and anti-clockwise? Mr.Park?”

Jimin felt his face go through the five stages of horror as he realized although he remembered the instructions telling him to stir the potion clockwise, he somehow stirred it in an anti-clockwise direction.

“S-sorry, professor.”

“Another ten points from Gryffindor.”

Professor Snape went over to Taehyung’s.

“Twenty points to Gryffindor. The two idiotic Gryffindors, thank Mr.Kim here. He got your points back.”

-

Professor McGonagall said, “Class dismissed! This will be everyone but Mr.Park’s last lesson for the day. You first years, report to your respective houses before starting your free time. And remember, for your first week, you are only allowed to be in the Great Hall and library! Mr.Park, kindly stay behind.”

“Good luck, Jimin! I will wait for you in the common room!” Taehyung cooed before packing his bags and leaving with the Hufflepuffs that are having Transfiguration lessons with the Gryffindors.

Jimin walked timidly to Professor McGonagall’s desk, and the professor addresses him before having him say anything.

“A Ravenclaw fourth year named Kim Namjoon will be here to take you to the North Towers, wait for him here, will you?”

“Yes, professor!” Jimin is still a little scared of the professor.

He watched the professor take her leave and he sat down on once of the benches. Twiddling his thumbs nervously, he is a bit afraid of what the coming lesson will be like. He had already learned about what the subject is, and knew what being a Seer means, though he never guessed he is one. Still, he is a bit on edge as he knew he will be having the class with senior students. He was about to stand up and pace when a tall individual entered the classroom.

“Park Jimin?”

The tall Ravenclaw has heavy glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a haircut that resembles a mushroom. The senior student is smiling, dimples showing. Although he looks quite like a walking fashion disaster, Jimin believe that with a bit of professional styling, the fourth year before him should be a handsome man. He made up his mind that if he ever got close to this guy he can tell his fashionista level best friend, Kim Taehyung to have a go on him.

“Y-yes! That will be me.”

The tall fellow smiled again, exclaiming, “Let’s go then!”

Chapter 6: Divination green guy

Chapter Text

“So Trelawney just walked straight up to you?”

Jimin nodded, walking alongside Namjoon as students hustle by, “Yeah, she walked towards me and looked at me like I’m a piece of meat on the market, if I have to describe her gaze.”

Laughing, Namjoon said, “Must be terrified, first day here after all. But you see, the longer you study here, the less likely you will find these things weird. Trust me when I say it, cause there really are millions of interesting things going on in this castle.”

“By the way sunbaenim, are you the commentator for the Quidditch match broadcasted during summer?” Jimin had found the senior oddly familiar.

Namjoon waved his hands dismissively, “By all means, call me Namjoon hyung. You’re right, I was the commentator for that match alongside with Seokjin hyung, my boyfriend.” As he noticed Jimin’s confused stare, he continued, “Guess you have no idea who I am talking about huh? If you see a guy blowing kisses at you in the hallways or eating little snacks in times he shouldn’t, that’s him.”

Jimin chuckled, “Actually, my friend Taehyung told me he went to the bathrooms during Charms and met a guy there who sat on one of the sinks eating candies. That guy winked at him and offered him one.”

They stopped in front of a grand staircase that later separated into two narrow ones, one on the left and the other one on its right.

“That sounds exactly like my hyung. Now Jimin, here you turn left and these are the spiral stairs we need to walk up on to get to the North Towers. But when it is Friday, the stairs will be changed, so you turn right, clear?” Namjoon instructed as he started walking up the staircase.

Jimin frowned as he followed his senior, “How on earth even do you guys remember these things? I would have gotten lost so many times just today, if it weren’t for nice sunbaes that pointed me the right way.”

Namjoon shrugged, “You just remember it when you walk around these everyday, I guess.”

The pair soon reached the end of the staircase and Jimin noticed a trapdoor right above his head. “This, is the door of our classroom.” Namjoon announced.

Namjoon carefully opened it, a ladder dropped down and he wordlessly swing his hands onto the sides of it and began to climb up. Jimin would normally have commented on the strange yet interesting door design of the classroom, if it weren’t for his nervousness hitting full on again. He prayed to whichever God that is listening, hoping he won’t make a mess of himself in front of all the other senior students.

Jimin climbed up after his senior and when he nearly reached the top of the ladder, Namjoon offered his hand and helped Jimin up into the classroom.

The boy stared around in amazement, thinking that his surroundings look more like a witch café than a classroom. The classroom should be located in the attic, the ceiling gave it away. Lots of small circular desks with patterned wool cloth thrown over it were scattered around, each with a single crystal ball, textbooks on top, and small groups of students sat around the tables. The whole class seemed to be already present as Jimin noticed there are very few vacant seats left. There is a fireplace on the right side of the room and it caused Jimin to feel a little bit hot, the stuffy air filled with perfume made him feel even dizzier.

And, the fact that every single pair of eyes in this room are all zeroed on him did not help at all.

“Good for you to join us, Mr.Kim and yes! Mr.Park, our precious little Seer.”

Jimin turned his head towards the direction where the familiar voice is coming from, and saw Professor Trelawney poking her head out from behind a pile of thick books. Ah, that’s why he didn’t notice her just now. The Professor continued talking, “My dear, you can sit at Mr.Kim’s table I guess? Three people so far?”

Looking back at Namjoon, Jimin saw him nodding in confirmation as he replied, “Yes professor, adding him in will make four.”

“Good, now trot along.”

Namjoon led Jimin to a table that only has one seat occupied, and the occupant sure is a familiar handsome fellow, Jimin thinks he looks even more gorgeous real-life than on the television at Taehyung’s home.

“Sit next to me, baby!” The gorgeous student’s voice is very sweet as well. Jimin wouldn’t have know till now, for that voice was illegally misused screaming on the Quidditch pitch.

Namjoon sat down next to him. Jimin remained standing.

Seokjin bashed his boyfriend on the the chest, “No not you, you big baby. I’m talking to the cute first year here, wanna get to know him.”

Namjoon pouted like a kicked puppy but said nothing as he moved one seat to his left. Jimin sat down on the seat Namjoon had just moved out of with cheeks that are heating up fast. He gave Namjoon an apologetic gaze but the Ravenclaw just smiled sheepishly at him. It was Seokjin’s voice that broke him out of the silent interaction he was having.

“So you are a Seer! That’s so cool!”

“I guess so, but I still don’t know how to use my powers, if I have even have any.”

Seokjin rolled his eyes, patting Jimin on his head, “Trust me, Trelawney never says a student has potential. You must be very special.”

Remembering that Taehyung had told him the same thing when Trelawney cornered him earlier today in the corridors, Jimin grinned, “My friend told me the exact same thing when Professor Trelawney offered me to be in this class.”

“Really? I’m guessing your friend is a first year?”

“Yep, same house, also Gryffindor.”

“I see, a first year that is familiar with here. You first years are cute, if I have the chance I want to meet more of you guys, show you all around Hogwarts, introducing my favourite places.”

Namjoon interfered, “Hyung, you became headboy just for that reason didn’t you.”

“Now hush joonie, I’m a man of honour, don’t ruin my shiny white reputation. I don’t coo over kids and prioritize them over my studies.” Seokjin glared at his boyfriend cheekily.

“Hyung trust me, that’s exactly what happened.”

“Wait, Seokjin subaenim is headboy? I thought-“

Seokjin stopped Jimin from going any further, “I was headboy, not is. Past tense. I’m in my seventh year here already.”

“You are a seventh year? But Namjoon hyung is a fifth year… why are you guys in the same divination class?”

Seokjin did a dramatic gasp as he put his hands over his chest heaving, “You call him hyung and not me! I’m betrayed, Jiminie!”

Jimin got a little shy as he immediately say, “No-no! Jinnie hyung!”

“That’s much better,” Seokjin grinned, “This indeed is a seventh year class, but as it does not clash with normal classes, senior students are all welcomed to join. Seventh year divination class consist of more useful divination techniques, so if people wanted to learn how to predict their futures but don’t want to sit for exams, they come here. Namjoon here,” He gestured to his boyfriend who is attentively listening to him talk, “is not good at divination. But I forced him here to endure the class with me. Anyway, the other guy who sits at this table is a Slytherin sixth year, also forced by me to join the class.”

Seokjin’s tone was extremely smug when he mentioned the other poor fellow he forced to come.

“You sound proud to have forced your Slytherin friend to come here,” Jimin can’t help but comment.

“Damn right I am, for once I forced him out of his little bedroom hole.”

“Welcome welcome! Now we will be starting the lesson…” Trelawney whispered her words, but somehow being heard by the whole class miraculously despite the original loud chattering.

“Oh? Where is…” She seemed to notice the still vacant seat next to Namjoon.

Seokjin answered for the still absent boy, “He is in the headmaster’s for a short meeting, professor. Don’t worry about him, he will be here soon.”

“Good good, please flip open to page 343, read through the chapter, we will be polishing our prediction skills today…”

-

Professor Trelawney gave them about ten minutes to read through the pages assigned, and then she clapped her hands together.

“I assume you all have finished? Yes, good. Divination is a skill that few poccesses, so what you learn may only be able to help you predict more less significant things in your life, I’m afraid. But I do hope for the people who are in this lesson today, came because of worshipping the greatness of future prediction, not for selfish reason such as romance or whatsoever.” She glared at two groups of girls that looked to be more on guard after she said the last sentence.

“Now as you see, we have this pair of dices, and today you will look at the crystal ball and tell me what numbers we will get the next time we throw the dices.”

Professor Trelawney collected the dices with one hand in a swift motion and used his other hand to beckon Jimin forward. “Mr.Park, please come here, I would like to first see to how wide your talent reach.”

Jimin walked towards the teacher’s desk with careful steps, allocating himself next to the professor awaiting for further instruction. The whole class’s attention was on him, as if Jimin and Trelawney are performers for a show.

“Lower your head, concentrate hard and tell yourself that you want to see the dices. Look into the crystal and give me as many set of numbers you can see. Given that you are a Seer, you should also be able to feel the crystal telling you numbers, now give it a try!”

Jimin did as he was told and concentrated hard. He saw numbers beginning to form among the fog inside the crystal ball, and also feel the bond between himself and the crystal.

“64,24,34,13,61,52,35,35,21,53,12,42,32,25-”

“Stop right there Mr.Park, but you can still see more?”

Jimin shook his head, “No, I cannot see any further but I can feel.”

“Get up now.”

Jimin stood straight up again.

Professor Trelawney handed him a clipboard and Jimin took it, noticing that the numbers he said just now were all written there.

“I want you to read out one set, and I will throw the dice. Check it, if its correct, read again, and we will repeat.”

Jimin nodded, “Right, first up is 64.”

Trelawney rolled the two dice, one dice landed on 6, the other landed on 4.

“24”

The professor threw the dice again, and the numbers they land on matched again.

“34”

The experiment continued until Jimin reached the last number on the list, and so far all the numbers had been correct. Jimin can feel the whole class grew with fascination as they watch the little play happening in front of them.

“Jimin, can you still feel the bond?” Trelawney whispered with eyes glowing with amazement as well.

The whole class had absolutely no idea what bond they are talking about, but continued to watch them.

Jimin didn’t hesitate as he reply, “Yeah, still feel it tingling on my skin.”

Professor Trelawney exclaimed, “Fascinating! Absolutely amazing, Mr.Park! And to say that this crystal ball isn’t even yours, I must say your ability are very very strong. Look into the crystal again, tell me what you see again?”

Jimin did as he was told and peered into the fog-filled crystal, an image start to form and realization hit him hard as his cheeks start flaming in colours. He stood back up immediately and looked at his table, where Seokjin and Namjoon are sitting, and glanced back at Trelawney again.

Trelawney asked, “So, what did you see?”

“I, um…. I saw what will happen in this classroom after class is finished?”

Jimin glanced at Seokjin and Namjoon unsurely again, and this time he saw the two starting to become uneasy.

“Go on!” Trelawney urged.

“I saw… Seokjin and Namjoon subae here in the classroom and they start to-“

“Jiminie!” Seokjin stood up embarrassingly fast as he stopped Jimin from going any further and exposing his later plans with Namjoon. “Very powerful! Jiminie! Come back here and lets start with our classwork, shall we?”

The whole class hauled with laughter as they all know what the resident PDA couple will do. There have already been many rumours that as this is the only class they share, they tend to make good use of the time and be touchy with each other.

Jimin returned to his sit with his face still flushed. He mouth a ‘sorry’ to his seniors and the two grinned at him and told him nothing is wrong.

“Its all good, Seokjin hyung is quite an exhibitionist-“

“Namjoon.” Seokjin glared hard at his boyfriend. Namjoon just smiled and gave him a peck on the cheek as he say, “Oops.”

Eventually, classwork time started. Jimin got the role of marking down the numbers the pair of senior says as he already aced the skill. At first he didn’t know he really is a powerful Seer, until he noticed nearly no one in the classroom can get even one number right, only a fourth year Hufflepuff girl and Seokjin managed to get a set of numbers matching. Jimin saw Namjoon gave up his crystal ball, took out a piece of parchment and started scribbling at an inhumane speed. He glanced over to see what Namjoon is doing and found out that he started calculating the probability. Namjoon looked up to see Jimin watching him and shrugged, saying, “I trust maths more.”

Just then, the classroom door opened.

“Mr.Min! How nice of you to join- Oh god! No, no, no! You have got the grim, my dear boy, the grim! Harry Potter had one and look what danger he faced, huh! Boy, this is not good at all I-”

The newcomer that stood on top of the trapdoor merely rolled his eyes as he drawled lazily, “Yeah, I have the grim and I’m going to die ten days later. I stepped into the classroom on my third year and you told me the same thing, still here, aren’t I?”

The class erupted with laughter, ignoring the professor who kept on muttering. But Jimin also noticed a few interesting things as he saw how the two table of girls sitting right in front of the professor straightened their sitting positions, curling their hair behind their ears and some even taking out small mirrors to check their appearance.

The newcomer went straight to the table where Jimin is sitting at without sparing a glance at the other students in class, plopped down on the seat beside Namjoon. He rested both his hands on the small table as he glared at Seokjin, mumbling “I still don’t get why you forced me to attend this stupid class, hyung.”

It was then the Jimin’s face flashed with recognition at the newcomer’s face, unable to stop himself from exclaiming, “Oh! Hi green guy!”

The originally laughing class fell into heavy silence at an incredible speed.

There are unwritten rules at Hogwarts, rule number one, Min Yoongi is an unapproachable God that you should only speak to when he spoke to you first. Rule number two, he should definitely not be called green guy, neverless by a junior, first year.

All, including Seokjin and Namjoon expected Yoongi to give a cold stoned look to shut the first year up or give him a piercing glare.

Yoongi did glare at Jimin, but playfully, unlike everyone had seen before. He opened his mouth, “Jiminie, didn’t I tell you to call me hyung?”

Jimin widened his eyes and replied, “Ah yes! Yoongi hyung, sorry I forgot.”

“That’s more like it.” Yoongi’s face is stretched into a gummy smile.

The whole class’sA jaws dropped.

Yoongi just took out his divination books calmly, but internally cursing himself as he knew, he knew the gossips of him will spread through the castle faster than a wildfire.

The answer is one dinner, and the whole school knows about Min Yoongi allowing the Seer boy to call him hyung, and that THE Min Yoongi has a gummy smile that no one knew about.

-

“I always knew you will succeed, Jiminie! This is only your first day in Hogwarts and you are already the centre of gossip! I need the first-hand details quick!”

Jimin smacked Taehyung on the head.

Jungkook, who is sitting in front of Jimin added, “I mean, I am not really the type to gossip but this involves resident mystery guy Min Yoongi, so I am taking Taehyung’s side on this.”

The three are at the dining hall eating dinner, Jimin and Taehyung had sat down first when Jungkook joined them and asked Jimin about the juicy rumours he heard. Once Taehyung learned about why everyone is whispering while looking in their direction, he nearly killed Jimin when he flung himself on his friend demanding details.

“He smiled at me, and that’s it, okay?”

Jungkook rolled his eyes a little, “No, that’s not okay. I have seen him smile in photos, and once last night in the common room. But never, a gummy smile. You know, my elder brother told me that people say Yoongi only reserves his gummy smiles for cats.”

“Aw, that’s cute,” Taehyung said smiling, “But dude, you are quite a resourceful first year. Your brother told you any other things?”

“Um…” Jungkook smiled sheepishly as he answer Taehyung’s question, “Remember when Snape asked me to guess what potion we will be making just by looking at the ingredients? I didn’t really know that, it was my brother who told me first potion lesson always teaches boil curing potion. He also taught me how to brew one so I won’t embarrass him you know, he figured out Snape will ask me questions as he was a good potions student.”

Taehyung laughed as he say, “Cheater, figured out you don’t really know potions when you asked me how to write the essay after class.”

Jimin felt relieved as they finally stopped talking about him and Yoongi. He didn’t really feel special when the senior smiled at him, but after he heard from various persons that Yoongi really isn’t the kind of person that let people call him green guy and let them live, he doesn’t really know anymore. Why is he getting special treatment?

“ey! Hey! Earth to Jimin!”

Jimin broke out of his thoughts, “What?”

“You think you got our dear head boy wrapped around your pretty little finger? He is never that sweet to anyone!” Taehyung smirked.

“No? What the hell are you saying, Tae? Yoongi hyung is just being nice.” Jimin exclaimed and he spotted said Slytherin eating with three of his friends, two of them he recognised being Seokjin and Namjoon, while he doesn’t know the name of the last one, but looking at his robe, that person should be a Hufflepuff.

Seokjin seemed to be saying something to Yoongi when he pointed at Jimin with a dramatic face, the Hufflepuff friend said something to Yoongi playfully which caused him to get punched by the Slytherin.

Head boy turned his back and looked at Jimin directly in the eye, causing something similar to a blush colouring the Gryffindor’s cheeks, and then he realized Yoongi’s cheeks looks identical to his.

Unknown by Jimin, Taehyung had been watching the entire interaction. His friend let out a whistle and muttered, “Just being nice, you say.”

-

Yoongi sat warily in front of Seokjin and Namjoon while eating his dinner.

“Yoongi, you better explain your ass.” Seokjin threatened.

Yoongi roll his eyes as he replied, “There is nothing to be explained, now shut up and let me eat my steak.”

It was Namjoon’s turn to roll his eyes, “What do you mean there is nothing to be explained, you literally let a junior call you green guy without killing him, told him to call you hyung, and gave him your goddamn gummy smile. You literally only let me and Hoseok call you hyung. Furthermore, I have only seen your full on gummy smile for at most five times!”

Yoongi shushed him, “Lower your fucking voice, can you? And who uses furthermore when they are having normal conversations, you are not writing an essay or arguing in a debate, merlin.”

The head boy sliced his steak and noticed the couple in front of him still staring holes at him. He surrendered.

“I met him in the Hogwarts Express, then saw him roaming around last night with his friends and when I was leading him back to his common room, I found him teeny bit of cute, okay?”

“Awwwww a teeny bit of cute huh? Stop lying to yourself, it is unhealthy.” Seokjin said as he pointed his fingers at the Slytherin accusingly.

“So what is it that I heard about from nearly everyone in this school? Our resident cold headboy getting whipped for the Seer boy?” A new voice joined the three as the owner of said voice sat down next to Yoongi.

Yoongi scooted away from the newcomer and groaned, “Not you too, Hoseok.”

Hoseok grinned like a manic as he replied in a booming voice, “This is a juicy gossip! How can I miss out? Seokjin hyung and Namjoonie, you guys were taking that holy class right?”

Seokjin smirked and say, “Of course, first-hand witnesss. I swear I heard the clanking sound when Joon’s jaw dropped to the floor. Actually, the whole class’s jaws were gone. Look! Your crush is looking at our way, Yoongi, look!” The eldest pointed to the area behind Yoongi.

Hoseok wiggled his eyebrows suggestively at Yoongi and got a punch to his arm in return.

Yoongi hesitated, but reluctantly turned his back and found Park Jimin staring at him with a dumbfounded gaze, quickly, he turned back to face Seokjin and Namjoon with a blush creeping up his face.

“Yoongi hyung is blushing!” Hoseok yelled as he pointed at Yoongi.

In Yoongi’s opinion, Hoseok is a good friend. His only problem is being too loud and attracting other’s attention, without realizing his loudness is not appropriate for situations.

The whole hall of students fell silent as they all look at the the group of four famous students. Yoongi tried damn hard to control the flame that is heating his face and gave a glare to his surrounding students, continue to eat his food calmly. Well, or at least he tried to.

Although some of the stares still lingered, most of the students focused back on their own conversation.

“Oh merlin, I told you guys to keep your voices down! How hard is that!”

Hoseok just brushed it off, “I wasn’t even that loud, it was just the others had already been paying attention to our table, Mr.Propular.”

“Don’t call me that, asshole. Shit, I don’t even know why people are making this like its as big of a news as the end of the world. I smiled at one guy and then the whole school are at it,” Yoongi grumbled.

Namjoon finally gave him a pitiful gaze as he say, “I feel you bro. But this is what it will be like when you are the most famous and mysterious person in this school. We didn’t even tell you about weird gossips of you, do you know just the week before one boy from Ravenclaw claimed that you have three moles on your left buttcheek? People in my house fretted over it for three solid days.”

Hoseok laughed at Namjoon’s words, “Dude, that’s insane. You have three moles on your left buttcheek, Yoongs?”

Yoongi stabbed Hoseok’s side with his unused fork and Hoseok yelped in pain. The Slytherin gave his Hufflepuff friend a threatening glare and huffed, returning to eating his dinner.

“That’s a yes then?” Seokjin teased.

“Fuck no.” Yoongi stabbed his last piece of steak with his fork aggressively and chomped it down. “I’m going back to my room, tired of all the damn human interactions.”

“Or mentally exhausted from seeing his crush!” Seokjin singsonged, causing Namjoon and Hoseok to haul with laughter.

Yoongi gave them a roll of eyes but a fond smile nevertheless, as he gather his things to walk out of the Great Hall.

Returning to his single room (head boy privilege), he immediately lay down on his bed without changing out from the dirty school robes he had been wearing all day. Since he is alone, he didn’t have to worry about keeping his reputation or what and thrashed on his bed, clearly distressed. Yoongi ran his head through his hair and squeezed his eyes shut, letting out a sigh. He spoke :

“Min Yoongi, you are an idiot.”

Chapter 7: Stupid Pronouns

Summary:

Pronouns are frustrating and annoying - Min Yoongi

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

About a month had passed ever since the divination incident. The gossips and rumours that had been flying down sort of quieted down, but that doesn’t mean no one is still talking about it. There are still turning of heads in the hallway whenever the two male leads in the incident appear.

Min Yoongi had decided immediately that his approach will be a ‘I give zero fucks’ attitude, ignoring teasing comments thrown to him by his friends, classmates, and housemates. He tried damn hard to keep up his reputation as he knows his father will be disappointed with him if he heard of Yoongi’s doings in the school. His father is still a pureblood enthusiast, after all.

However, Yoongi finds it extremely hard to try and keep the butterflies in his tummy or his racing heartbeat to calm down if he is sat next to Park Jimin. They have had more divinations class after the ‘holy class’, as everyone in the campus insist to call that damn first divination lesson. Fortunate for Yoongi, but maybe more on the unfortunate side, he is paired up with Jimin during partner work by Trelawney. Although Trelawney may not seem like the type, but that woman surely adores partnered classwork.

Yoongi suffered through every lesson trying to ignore the temptation of letting his gummy smile take over his face, and his awkward twitching lips and hands that curled into fists had already been commented on by Seokjin many times. Apparently that good friend find the entire situation extremely amusing.

But Yoongi didn’t blame himself for having a weakness to cute things, no he didn’t. He blamed it on Jimin, who indeed is very hard to resist, with his shy and humble nature although having great talent, and also that freaking eye smile whenever Yoongi got some predictions right during classwork. Yoongi swears that every lesson, he melts into enough puddles of goo that can be provided to Snape for a whole academic year.

In conclusion, Yoongi cannot resist Park Jimin at all.

So this is why he finds in this situation.

They had been walking out of the classroom after Divinations, and Yoongi noticed that Jimin’s friends aren’t waiting for him at the bottom of the classroom door like usual. (Yes, he did eyed Jimin and take notice on everything about the boy whenever he can. But this is what happens to every gay and straight men when The Park Jimin is in the room, isn’t it? Sue him, but Yoongi does whatever he likes.)

Jimin looked a bit like a lost puppy as he walked away from the classroom, and Yoongi, being the dumb idiot that he is, decides to jog up after Jimin and open his stupid mouth that can’t even be stopped by a silent curse. (He wanted to curse himself, literally.)

“Jimin? Why aren’t your friends here?”

Jimin stopped as he turned his body back to look at Yoongi, smiling weakly, “They are at detention… played pranks on each other during Transfiguration.” He paused for a bit, but then his face morphed into confusion, “Hyung? I didn’t know you noticed they always pick me up to dinner! They always huddle here in the corner, told me they are scared of upperclass men. Don’t want to be seen, they say, those idiots.”

Yoongi had never want to slap himself in the face so bad throughout his life. His mind came up with a million of excuses to hide the fact that he had been creepily looking at the boy and his doings, but each excuse sound a lot crazier than the one before.

“I, um…” Yoongi scratched the back of his head, “Force of habit I guess? To be head boy you need to take notice of other students… I guess. Need to know the population.”

He can’t even match name with faces except for Seokjin, Namjoon Hoseok, that Jeon from his house and the little angel- *ahem * Jimin in who is in front of him.

But for some lucky reason Jimin seems to buy that, as he nodded along the flat out lie.

“So, um, Jimin. Who are you sitting with tonight for dinner then? Since your first year friends are in detention.”

Uh-oh Min Yoongi, you are not going down that path. Shut your mouth right now.

“I don’t know…I don’t actually know anyone here except Taehyung and Jungkook, and also our divination table.” Jimin shrugged his shoulders.

Abort mission. Don’t do this please, its not good for your health, abort mission, abort missi-

“You wanna come sit with us tonight?”

You did not just say that, Min Yoonfuck.

Jimin widened his eyes a little as happiness shimmered inside those bright orbs, “Really? I can sit with you guys? But will your Hufflepuff friend mind though?” Yoongi watched in growing confusion as the boy in front of him suddenly goes bright red, just as he was pondering whether he should ask what is going on, the blushing boy in front of him stuttered, “Sorry, I-I mean, I kinda have been looking at who you sit with during dinner?”

Yoongi internally clapped and hollered for Jimin’s courage to admit it as he acknowledged the one in front of him as a Gryffindor. Outwardly, he shook his head as if he is a wonderful gentleman although he had been doing the same thing, “It’s okay, I got used to being stared at pretty well. Also, I’m sure Hoseok won’t mind, if anything, he will just coo over you.”

“Okay then!” Jimin smiled happily, hugging the thick volumes of Divination books closer to his chest, “I will drop off my books in the dorms first, then I will come to your usual table! Thank you so much looking out for me, hyung!”

Yoongi found himself oddly smug at Jimin’s diction of ‘usual table’. This means Jimin had looked at him enough times during dinner to take notice that he and his friend sit at the same table every time.

Finally, Yoongi gave in to his bloody gummy smile as he waved off the boy walking separate ways from him, going into the Gryffindor dormitories.

-

Yoongi and Namjoon were explaining some astronomy theories when Hoseok joined the table. Why the Hufflepuff keeps joining the table late, nobody knows. (Maybe its just that the writer of this fic sucks at new plots)

“Aww, Yoongi baby! You changed! This is the first time you helped me get my food!” Hoseok hopped into the seat next to Yoongi happily as he stares at the plate of spaghetti in front of him. “You just make me get food myself usually, why did u suddenly help me? Do you have any favours to ask me?”

Hoseok picked up his fork and prepared to dive it into the spaghetti but got his hands swatted away by an annoyed Yoongi.

“This is not for you, get your own food.”

Hoseok raised his eyebrows, “Not for me, hyung? Who is this for then?”

Even Seokjin and Namjoon looked at Yoongi judgingly, with a smirking Seokjin questioning, “All of us are here, just admit you got a soft spot of Hoseok, Yoongi. No one will tease you if you finally express your inner softness once in awhile.”

Yoongi huffed, “No, I swear, this is not for you, Hoseok.”

The three were about to dump a series of insults and questions on the Slytherin again by a soft yet clear voice called out near the table, “Yoongi hyung!”

The four all turn their heads towards the voice and found Jimin walking towards them.

Yoongi nearly threw Hoseok off the bench, the Hufflepuff barely managed to catch himself before he hits the ground and standing up, he really wants to curse at Yoongi but finally witnessing his hyung interact with the first year crush is something that hold his steams.

“Ah Jimin! I saved you a plate of spaghetti, come sit here.” Yoongi patted the seat where Hoseok had been sitting at seconds before.

Seokjin helpfully cups Namjoon chin to close his mouth that had been opened unknowingly due to shock, “Joonie, close your mouth or flies will get in.”

Jimin smiled happily and took a sit next to Yoongi, “Thank you so much hyung! I am Jimin, nice to meet you!” Being the polite boy he is, he bowed a little at the unfamiliar hufflepuff.

Hoseok, who now sat next to Seokjin and Namjoon cracked a huge smile with eyes literally pouring out rainbows, he grabbed Jimin’s small chubby hands and exclaimed, “NICE TO MEET YOU! YOONGI’S LITTLE CRUSH.”

The weird group of five already had enough eyes on them, but after Hoseok’s exclaimation, all other students are looking straight at them with great interest.

Yoongi wants to die, partly because of the attention they are receiving, partly because of the pretty boy beside him.

Jimin seemed to be extremely uncomfortable, blushing bright red and casting his head down in embarrassment. So Yoongi spoke up, “Shut it, Hoseok. Jimin, ignore him.”

Hoseok seemed to sense his mistake and smiled apologetically, “Sorry, Jimin. I didn’t really mean it, just joking.”

“Its okay, Hoseok hyung.”

Yoongi raised his eyebrow as he look at Jimin sceptically, “How come you called Hoseok hyung so fast! You hesitated to call me hyung even after I told you to.”

Namjoon laughed, “Admit it yourself, but you aren’t the easiest to approach, hyung. I was so scared of you when Seokjin hyung first introduced you to me, you kept giving me your death stare and didn’t talk to me for two whole months!”

“Its just my natural stare! Plus I was a bit intimidated by your height, you nerd.”

“Don’t call him that, Yoongi. He is not a nerd, with some styling and makeup, Joonie will walk right up the catwalk.” Seokjin rolled his eyes at Yoongi.

Jimin gave Namjoon a onceover and suggested, “My friend Taehyung is a fashion manic, he brought thousands of clothes he claimed to be his favourites here, I’m sure he will be thrilled if he get a model to style for.”

Namjoon shook his head, “Nah, Im not exactly…hot.”

Seokjin gave his boyfriend an offended look, “Excuse me? Did I just hear my boyfriend say he is not hot? And why do you think you’r not exactly? Look at you, damn! And when will your dear friend be free, Jiminie?”

“He is always free unless he is off pranking people with Jungkook and getting himself in detention.” Jimin shrugged.

Yoongi put his hands on the table and rested his head on them, “That kid is seriously getting on my nerves, but then right when I’m about to report him he looks at me with his innocent wide doe eyes and I just can’t, you know.”

Hoseok teased, “Admit it, hyung. Cold guy Min Yoongi is secretly a sucker for cute things. Just look at Jimin sitting here, you think all of us don’t know why you invited him?”

Glaring, Yoongi threatened, “Shut up, I wont hesitate to hide your broomstick again.”

The five continued to eat and Namjoon was slurping his noodles when he noticed two students who just entered the Great Hall.

“Oh, Jiminie, are those two your friends?”

Jimin put down his silverware and looked behind him, eyes focusing on the two figures lurking at the entrance, its indeed his two friends, and they seemed to be looking for him. He waved his hands to get their attention.

“Taehyung! Jungkook!”

Taehyung finally got a look at Jimin and smiled brightly, waving his hands back. He pulled Jungkook’s robes, getting him to follow himself to the table where Jimin is sitting.

“Oh?”

Taehyung gave a questioning look at the people Jimin sat with. He recognised Yoongi, and the other guy that he had met once in the washrooms who had been snacking at that time.

Jimin jumped in before Taehyung start his questioning, “This is Seokjin hyung and Namjoon hyung, they are the divination classmates. This is Hoseok hyung, I met him just today.”

Jungkook greeted Yoongi, “Hi, sunbae.”

Yoongi gave him a little wave with his left hand.

Namjoon smiled as he introduced himself again and looked at Seokjin, who seemed to be buzzing with excitement because of the possibility of having two new first years for him to dot on.

“Hi! I’m Kim Seokjin you know, Taehyung right? I met you in the washrooms once! And you must be Jungkook! Yoongi told us how you used your eyes as weapons, looks pretty cute I must say.” Seokjin gushed over them.

Jungkook pouted a little, scratching the back of his head, “mm not cute.”

“Yes you are, sit!” Seokjin patted the seats next to him.

-

Very surprised, is an understatement. Yoongi watched in amazement at how his little group of friends got so well with the three first years in just a few minutes, himself included. Although he thinks Taehyung is quite a weird kid and Jungkook is a devilish fox hiding behind his sheep costume, they are still nice. Yoongi won’t admit it, but he like the new kids.

And for Jimin, he doesn’t even need to say that the attraction to the Gryffindor is even stronger now. Yoongi’s fucked, yea, he knows.

The table of seven finished their dinner while chatting within a blink of an eye, and soon, the babies need to return to their houses. (first years has earlier lights out)

Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook stood up and said goodbye to the seniors, and Yoongi stood up as well. His friends look at him with a curious gaze and he cleared his throat a little, cheeks tinted in light pink, “Ahem, um… I’m taking them to their common rooms. Don’t want them to get lost.”

Hoseok smiled wickedly, seeing right through Yoongi and spotted his real intention, “Don’t you think they have had enough practise to find their common room, hyung?”

“Of course we know our ways, you don’t need to accompany us, hyung.” From Taehyung’s tone and the smile he had that is almost identical to Hoseok, Yoongi could guess that Taehyung knows about his attraction to his friend clearly.

Damn, why is he this obvious?

Yoongi clenched his jaw and looked at Jungkook with squinted eyes, eyebrows twitching. Jungkook widened his eyes, not knowing what exactly is happening but sensed that Yoongi wanted himself to agree with Yoongi’s proposal. Jungkook shook his head a little, taking a step backwards to send the message to Yoongi that he doesn’t want to interfere with whatever that is going on, but Yoongi’s stare became a glare and Jungkook gave up.

“Um…sure! If Yoongi hyung wants to accompany us, why not?”

Yoongi immediately returned to his normal face and turned to look at Hoseok, “See? He wants me to accompany him, don’t say shit.”

Hoseok still had that stupid smile on his face, “if you insist, hyung. You totally didn’t threaten Jungkook into saying what you want him to say, yep, totally.” The Kim couple cant hide their laughter anymore and laughed out loud.

“Shall we go?” Yoongi started to walk and while doing so, gave a blow to Hoseok’s head with his elbow. “Lets go to Gryffindor’s common room first, its closer.”

-

“You know, Hoseok kept on insisting that you guys should sit with us from now on.” Yoongi told the three.

“For real?” Jungkook asked with a sceptical face, “I mean from what I heard, you guys are pretty famous here and have a lot of fangirls around. Sure you want us little first years to sit there?”

Yoongi looked away, “Its Hoseok’s idea… yea, its his idea. I don’t know what I…um what he thinks, but I’m not against it.” This, is a big fat lie.

Taehyung hid his smirk, “Pretty sure its his idea? Did you use pronouns wrongly? He was so distracted with the elephant on my arms that I’m a hundred percent sure he did not have a conversation with you.”

Yoongi really doesn’t want to face Jung Hoseok the second (expert in teasing Yoongi) right now.

“Christ, he did, okay? He told me.” Again, a big fat lie.

“Sure.” Taehyung said boringly. “Jimin, what do you think?”

Jimin finally spoke, “I like them as well, I’m not against it either.”

Yoongi had to control the trumpet and crackers and fireworks that are prepared and loaded to set off in his mind right now. He had to remind himself the little one said ‘them’, that means his friends are included. Not just him, not just him, not just- God, how he want the pronoun to change to a ‘he’, wait no, preferably his name-

Stupid pronouns.
