Witch Academy | TaeKook ✓

LVII

Taehyung sighed as he took a seat by the window in the classroom he was assigned to.
He was feeling rather tired since he couldn't sleep last night from being too nervous.

"Hey- you seem tired."

He guessed it was obvious. Oh well really.

"I couldn't sleep last night... maybe that's why."

Hoseok smiled as he took a seat beside him.

"Hmm~? I see. Well, i personally slept like the dead. The day before i had a lot of work to do... you know- rearranging the roses and stuff..."

Since he was pretty much the only person in charge of the green house other than Sehun- he did all the work in a way.

After that they just sat there in silence until Jackson came into the classroom with a huge box of roses and then took out a list.

"Alright- settle down you fuckers- uhh... so number one is Ji-.."

As he said the names, students came forward to get their roses. Many had a lot while many didn't.
Even Hoseok got a couple, which made him have a shocked face really. But he seemed happy so that was sweet.

But meanwhile, Taehyung didn't get any.
It made him feel down somehow.

He knew that not many liked him anyways but... he had excpected for Jungkook to get him some at least. It made him sad a bit.

Meanwhile Jacksom who had just finished giving them saw Taehyung's gloomy expression and smiled. He knew about Jimin and Taehyung's plan but- wasn't sure if Jungkook had prepared something else in return.
So to see him smile at least, he grabbed one of the roses and then gave it to him.

"Hey Taehyung! Here- it's from me."

After that he walked out the classroom with a satisfied smile.
Meanwhile Taehyung glanced at the rose and sighed. Whatever... he didn't like flowers anyways.

He stood up and threw the rose in the trashbin before getting out. On his way out he stumbled upon Yoongi and decided to ask him.

"Have you seen Jungkook?"

Yoongi nodded pointing behind him.

"Yeah- he is in there."

Taehyung nodded kindly before making his way towards the classroom and then peaked from the door.
But upon seeing Jungkook with a huge bouqet of roses and some people around him, he decided to just walk away. He wouldn't fit in there. People would walk away if he went to him. He knew that much.

His jelousy for seeing Jungkook with other people wasn't just as simple. He knew that he was popular- he knew that he was handsome and kind- and pretty much everyone liked him.
But next to him, Taehyung was this outcast. That's how he met Jungkook anyways. A cursed body filled with filth. That's how he saw himself.
But Jungkook saw beyond that and chose to love him. Despite having their hardships, he was there for him.
But even then he knew not to meddle when he was with others. He knew he didn't have to think about such things when they were alone together. But when they were outside, with everyone else, he would only get reminded of how much of a loner he was. He really didn't have friends huh.
And maybe what Jackson said was right. Jungkook's friends acted nice towards him because he was his boyfriend. Nothing more. But he didn't need their pity. He actually hated it. Just like how Jackson just gave him a rose. It made him feel miserable if anything.

Giving a heavy sigh, he slowly made his way out the building and set a distance between himself and the academy.
Meanwhile Hoseok who had just seen him walk away into the woods from the window frowned.
