I'm Right Here// Taehyungff

Taehyung's POV:

" Y/n is running late," Seojun alerted me. " You know the consequences about being late to work. Extra work. More time in. Even though this is just a pet rescue center, we have responsibilities due to the fact that my aunt is away on business."

" I know."

" I wonder what you're going to tell her about it," he chuckled. How much I wanted to punch that ugly face of his. He pisses me off. How is he related to my boss anyway? How can she even let him work here?

" Hey!!! I'm sorry about being late," Y/n came rushing in. Her hair was a little messy but I found it kinda cute. 

" Finally you're here," Seojun said. " Go do your job. You're two hours late. The boss in charge-for-now has something to tell you about tardiness." He left me and Y/n alone near the reception desk.

" Y/n..."

" I'm sorry I just had an important thing to do with my aunt," she slightly laughed. How could I yell at her about being late?

" It's okay Y/n. Just let one of us know. Actually let me know," I patted her hair. She nodded with a smile and headed on to work. 

" So you're just going to let her slide?" Seojun snickered.

" I'll do the extra work for her."

" What a lover boy. I don't understand why you have to act like her friend when you clearly like her. It's so obvious Taehyung. If I were you I would have made a move on her and go for it since her boyfriend is in the US. Why bother being her friend?"

" I'm not like you. I'm not a player. I care for Y/n's feelings. I don't want to break Jungkook's trust. I don't want to break her heart. I don't want to lose her as a friend. Even if I did tell her my feelings, she would never accept since she and Jungkook have been friends for years," I clenched my fist.

" Just because they have known each other for a long time, it doesn't mean they always belong together. I would have made a move on her by now, but I'm not even in the friend zone yet. Anyways enjoy cleaning the place. I have to pick up my grandparents from the airport. Have fun," he left.

What a-

Don't you dare.

What?

I know exactly what you were going to say.

Ok and?

You are a holy man sir.

Is this suppose to be funny?

No. I just want to be pure.

I hate you. You are no help at all.

Whatever.

" Hey Taehyung, is something bothering you?" Y/n asked in concern. I looked into her eyes and I couldn't take my eyes off her. " Taehyung?"

" I'm sorry. I just have things to do. Just keep up the good work Y/n." I went to feed Yeontan who was probably hungry for a little snack. I spoil him too much. You know what, I'll just give every animal a treat at this point. It's only fair.

Y/n's POV:

" Well have a good rest of the day Taehyung."

" Have a nice night Y/n," he said as I left to catch the bus home. As I laid on my couch and turned on the tv, I thought about Jungkook. I played with my diamond promise ring necklace that he gave me. We facetime the other night and we texted almost the whole day since he didn't have class. I miss him so much. Should I text him? I looked at the time. He must be getting ready for morning classes by now.
