Accidentally Yours

The Beginning of Something (Nobody Noticed Yet)

The first time Kim Taehyung saw Jeon Jungkook, he didn’t think anything important of it.

Which is ironic.

Because later, he’d remember that exact moment like it rewired his life.

It was orientation day.

New campus.

New faces.

Too much noise.

Too many people trying way too hard.

Taehyung

(Already over it)

Taehyung

This is exhausting

Hobi

You’ve been here for five minutes

Hobi

(Walking beside Tae)

Hobi

(Way too cheerful for 9AM)

Taehyung

I’ve seen enough.

Hobi

You literally haven’t even seen your department.

Taehyung

Taehyung

I don’t need to. I already hate it.

Hobi

(Laughs)

Hobi

You don’t hate things. You get bored of them.

Taehyung

Same thing.

Hobi

No, it’s not.

Taehyung

It is for me. (Stopped walking)

Hobi

(Smiles and Shakes his head)

Meanwhile—

Across campus

Jungkook

(Standing alone near the registration desk)

Jungkook

(Double-checking documents for the third time)

Not because Jungkook didn’t trust himself.

Because he didn’t trust anything.

Jungkook

What if I missed something?

Yoongi

You didn’t.

Yoongi

(Leaning against a pillar, iced coffee in hand, looking like he’d rather be literally anywhere else)

Yoongi

You checked it five times already

Jungkook

Four

Yoongi

Same difference.

Jungkook

It’s not the same.

Yoongi

(Sigh)

Yoongi

You’re going to survive college, right?

Jungkook

I think so.

Yoongi

That sounded uncertain.

Jungkook

It is uncertain.

Yoongi

(Take a sip of drink)

Yoongi

You’re annoying.

Jungkook

And yet you’re still here.

Yoongi

…unfortunately.

But Suga didn’t leave.

He never did.

The campus buzzed louder as more students gathered.

Groups forming.

Connections starting.

Most of them temporary.

Some of them… not.

Taehyung

(Spotted the notice board and walked over lazily, scanning through it without much interest)

Taehyung

Department allocation… schedule… blah blah…

Then—

Jungkook

(Bump into Tae)

Papers scatter

Jungkook

Oh—sorry!

Taehyung

(Looks at Jungkook)

A boy.

Wide eyes. Messy hair. Slight panic written all over his face as he quickly bent down to collect his papers.

Taehyung

(Crouched down too)

Taehyung

(Picking up a sheet before it flew away)

Jungkook

I didn’t see you, I was just—sorry, I should’ve been more careful—

Taehyung

You’re talking too much.

Jungkook

(Froze)

Jungkook

…sorry.

Taehyung

(Handed Jungkook the paper)

Taehyung

You said that already.

Taehyung

Jungkook

…okay

Taehyung

(Blinks)

That was new.

Most people either argued or got defensive.

This one just… accepted it.

Taehyung

*Interesting.*

Taehyung

What’s your name?

Jungkook

Jeon Jungkook

Taehyung

Kim Taehyung

Taehyung

(stand up)

Jungkook

(stand up)

From behind—

Yoongi

Jungkook

Yoongi

(Walk sover, eyeing the situation immediately)

Yoongi

Problem?

Jungkook

Taehyung

(Smirk) Not yet.

Yoongi

(Raises an eyebrow)You sound like trouble.

Taehyung

I’ve been called worse.

Yoongi

I’m sure.

Hobi

(Suddenly appeared next to Taehyung like he’d been summoned)

Hobi

There you are—oh.

Hobi

(Looks between Taehyung, Jungkook and Yoongi)

Fast

Observant

Way too observant

Hobi

New friends? (brightly)

Taehyung

Jungkook

Hobi

(Grinning) Liar energy already. I love it

Yoongi

We’re not doing this.

Hobi

Too late

Hobi

We’re doing this.

Taehyung

(Crosses arms, amused) Doing what?

Hobi

(Pointed between Taehyung and Jungkook) This. Whatever this weird tension is.

Jungkook

There’s no tension

Yoongi

There’s definitely tension

Jungkook

(Looking betrayed) You’re not helping

Yoongi

I’m not trying to.

Taehyung

And for a second—

Jungkook

(Forgot what he was supposed to say next)

Hobi

Somewhere else on campus—

Namjoon

(Already in a deep conversation with a senior about course structures)

Nearby

Seokjin

(Arguing with a staff member about hostel room conditions)

And not far from them—

Jimin

(Trying to convince Yoongi (over text) to come meet him immediately)

None of them knew it yet.

Not Taehyung.

Not Jungkook.

Not any of them.

But this random, chaotic, slightly awkward morning?

This was the starting point.

Of a group that would become inseparable.

Of friendships that would feel like family.

Of love stories that would take way too long to admit themselves.

Taehyung

(Tilts head slightly, looking at Jungkook again)

Taehyung

You’re in my department, aren’t you?

Jungkook

( Nod) Yeah.

Taehyung

(Smiles)

Taehyung

Then I guess we’re going to see each other a lot.

Jungkook

Probably

Hobi

(Leans toward Yoongi)

Hobi

This is going to get interesting.

Yoongi

(Didn’t even look surprised)

And just like that—

Without meaning to—

They met.

Just Sit Here, It’s Fine

The café was full.

Not “a little crowded”—full full. People standing around with trays, waiting like vultures for someone to leave.

Taehyung

(Stopped at the entrance and just stared)

Taehyung

Nah

Hobi

What? (looking at Taehyung)

Taehyung

I’m not doing this.

Hobi

Doing what?

Taehyung

This. Standing. Waiting. Looking desperate.

Hobi

You are desperate. You’re hungry.

Taehyung

That’s different.

Hobi

Then what do you want to do?

Taehyung

(Already scanning the room)

Taehyung

(sees the place)

One table. Two people. Five empty chairs—well, kind of empty. Bags on two of them.

Good enough.

Taehyung

There

Jungkook

(Eating quietly)

Taehyung

(Stopped right next to Jungkook’s table)

Jungkook

(Looks up)

Oh.

This guy.

Why is he here?

Taehyung

Can we sit?

Jungkook

Uh… yeah.

Jungkook

Yeah, it’s fine.

Taehyung

Thanks.

Taehyung

(Moves Jungkook’s bag just a little to the side and sit down like he’d been sitting there his whole life)

Jungkook

(Watch it happens)

Hobi

(Sit down also)

Hobi

Sorry, it’s chaos today. (Smile)

Yoongi

(Finally looked up from phone)

Yoongi

(Stared at Taehyung and Hobi for two seconds)

Yoongi

Sure

Which basically meant yes.

Crowded

Silence.

Like—not super awkward, just… nobody knew what to say first.

Jungkook

(Picked up spoon again but didn’t eat)

Jungkook

You’re in my department, right?

Jungkook

(Just to fill the silence)

Taehyung

Yeah

Hobi

Same

Jungkook

Right.

And then—nothing again.

Yoongi

Jungkook

Yoongi

(Not looking up)

Yoongi

Eat your food.

Jungkook

I am eating.

Yoongi

You’ve been holding that spoon for like a minute.

Jungkook

I’m thinking.

Yoongi

About what? Rice?

Hobi

Jungkook

Shut up.

Yoongi

Make me.

Jungkook

You’re so annoying.

That broke the silence a bit.

Jimin

Jungkookie!

Of course.

Jimin

(Dropped into the empty space next to Yoongi like he belonged there)

Jimin

You didn’t tell me you were here.

Jimin

Yoongi

I didn’t know I had to.

Jimin

You always tell me.

Yoongi

I texted you.

Jimin

You said ‘okay.’ That’s not telling, that’s ending the conversation.

Jimin

Yoongi

(Pushed his drink toward Jimin) Here. Drink something.

Jimin

(Lit up instantly) See? He cares about me.

Yoongi

I don’t.

Jimin

You literally just—”

Yoongi

I wanted you to stop talking.

Jimin

…still counts.

Taehyung

(Watched all of this, chin resting on hand)

Taehyung

Your friends are loud.

Jungkook

Yeah

Jimin

I heard that

Jungkook

You were supposed to,

Jimin

Namjoon

Is this seat taken?

Seokjin

(Behind Namjoon, looking mildly irritated)

Namjoon

There’s nowhere else.

Taehyung

Sit

Jungkook

(Moved tray slightly to make space)

Now it was… crowded.

Like actually crowded.
