THE ACE

Chapter - 43

AUTHOR POV

The bell rang loud and clear, indicating the start of lunch break. Park Jimin swung his bag over his shoulder and walked towards a very familiar place.

A smile crept across his face as he climbed upstairs to the place of his comfort.
The school roof.

He opened the door and was immediately hit by the chilly wind, welcoming it with open arms. Any other person would feel cold but it gave Jimin warmth and solace, something that noone else could give him.

But he realised he wasn't alone. The faint figure of a person could be seen, sitting with their arms wrapped around their knees, facing the beautiful scenery. Jimin could only see the back of the person but as he inched closer and closer, he could see silky strawberry blonde hair, ending at the person's waist.

Recognizing the person a little too quickly, Jimin spoke up the moment he was right beside her.

"Why are you here? Dont-"

The male was about to continue but was cut off by a honey like voice.

"Cant I just sit here?"
Park Chaeyoung asked bitterly, finally looking up to meet Jimin's eyes.

Jimin's bipolar side began taking over as irritation and vexation rose inside of him.

"Not saying it like that, but its usually only me up here during lunch. So may I know why you're here?"

He huffed out.

Why the fuck is he so mad?
Thought Rosè before averting her gaze back to the colorful trees and plants surrounding the Lakewood High school.

"Mian mian, I'm just here to relieve some stress. I didn't know this was your usual spot."
She said and closed her eyes, letting the rays of the sun seep into her skin.

Realising Jimin was here for the same reason, he quickly apologized and sat down beside her; admiring how pretty Park Chaeyoung looked up close. A small smile made its way onto his features as he lovingly stared at her, the blue Burberry dress that rode up her thighs turning him on.

Dirty, sinful thoughts began clouding his mind. When he realised he was practically staring at Rosè and getting unholy thoughts about her, he furiously shook his head and cleared his throat; making Park Chaeyoung open her eyes and frown at him.

Thinking about starting a conversation, Jimin took a deep breath and spoke.

"So um what happened with Taehyung? How are things going with Taehyung?"

He inquired, keeping his growing Jealousy at the bay.

Why am I becoming jealous?
Jimin wondered.

"To be honest, nothing, zero. Infact We're not talking to each other at all!"
She said, letting out a sarcastic laugh.

"Well, you can always talk to me."
Jimin said with a sly smirk, scooting closer to the strawberry blonde.

"Oh really? Thank you so much."
Rosè drawled out with a small smile, the underlying flirt clearly going unnoticed by the female.

"Huh? Um yeah sure, anytime."
Jimin said, rubbing the back of his head nervously, thinking how a girl ignored his flirty comment for the first time.

"If it's not too touchy and you're okay to talk about it, may I ask how are things back at home? I know you and your family have been through a lot and I'm sorry I didn't ask about this earlier and kept rambling about my own issues. So yeah, how are things going?"
Rosè asked, nervously chuckling after.
