Scintillating Ember Eyes || Tk

I want you back now.

"Look at him," one of Taehyung's noonas said. Taehyung could feel their burning gaze on his bare legs. He rolled his eyes.

He was spending a few moments of bliss while doing what he loves, and they just had to spoil it all.

"His closet is surely stuffed with thousands of clothes. Why can't he dress up properly? He wears just shorts to dance practices when he knows that it may expose all of himself when he dances."

And? It is only you who looks at me because you're jealous. Taehyung thinks. They weren't that bad, but they did get upset when the reality of not being as good as him slapped them across their face.

He obviously disliked all of what they gossiped about him but didn't care most of the times.

They were in the same dance group, and they wouldn't surely be this popular if it wasn't for him.

All eyes when he dances are always on him.

He understood their jealousy.

They weren't as talented as he is.

They claimed that the huge attention he gets when he dances is because of his short and cropped clothes. They weren't ready to believe that he was more talented than them.

It was fine. People believed that omegas who dressed more and covered themselves completely are the ones who have a great dignity.

He didn't care if he wasn't dignified in their eyes. He didn't want to have dignity in other's eyes anyway.

"Of course, considering the clothes he wears, he'd definitely gain the attention of the alphas. They all just like him because he looks extremely captivating and beautiful."

Taehyung chuckled to himself.

At least you admit that I'm extremely pretty, better than all of you.

They speak more but Taehyung was disinterested in listening to them speak about his beauty. He knew it already; he didn't have to listen to them speak about it.

Yoongi has seldom told him that he looks really pretty, like a flower. He himself spent a few full minutes praising himself while looking into his reflection in glass or water right after waking up in the morning.

He was glad that Yoongi wasn't here at the moment. His smell of fresh leaves and wet grass was much stronger today and slightly bitter too because he was distressed. 

None of the people he hates were around too.

He was glad that Jimin wasn't somewhere around, smiling at him and signalling him that he was going well. He didn't fucking need that kind of assurance from Jimin. He knew he was doing well.

Taehyung did a few stretches along with a few other omegas before dancing a few small steps little more.

He continued to mind his own business like always.

He smiled at the alpha dance trainer who smiled back at him curtly and turned away to look at how the other people were doing their stretches.
