Taste of Love

CHAPTER 3

Jungkook walked down the hallway with his friends; he had his bag on one shoulder with his phone in his hand as he listened to his friends talk. 

"I was so close to not coming today," Jimin said, rubbing his head

"Damn, you shouldn't of," Mark said, receiving a hit on his back from Jimin

"Ouch", He muttered as he walked into class, rubbing his back.

As always, as soon as they entered, the girls went quiet and stared at them; Jungkook looked towards his seat only to see a male sitting down drawing. The black-haired boy stared at his side profile for a little before his shoulder got nudged by one of his friends. 

Jungkook sat in front of the male, not minding that he sat in his seat. He sighed once he saw the girls rushing towards him as he got his books out. 

"Jungkookie, someone is in your seat. What are you going to do," She says, smiling at Jungkook, who doesn't bother to look at her.

"It is his seat now", Jungkook comments coldly at her. 

The girls scoffed and walked off; they were like this every day, and Jungkook was sick of it. 

"Morning class, today we have a new student- Taehyung", She called out

Taehyung lifted his head to see all eyes were on him; the first person he made eye contact with was the male sitting in front of him. The male had black hair and tattoo's on his arms. He was handsome. Point blank. 

Jungkook thought very similarly; when they made eye contact, it was as if time had slowed down. The male was so beautiful. The girls huffed when they noticed Jungkook's attention was on the new boy.

When Taehyung broke eye contact to look at the teacher Jungkook gulped and turned back to face the whiteboard. Jimin noticed this and smirked. 

'Look's like he has found his match', Jimin thought before turning to the teacher.

The class was over, the bell had rung, and the teacher talked about their assessment and what it was on and when it was due. Taehyung was excited about his first assessment. People may think that's crazy, but it's a distraction for him. 

It was now Taehyung's least favourite part of the day, lunch. Everyone goes to the cafeteria and eats with their friends and laughs, but in all honesty, Taehyung would instead be eaten by sharks than go to the cafeteria. 

So he walked past it and went outside; he found a tree to sit under and did precisely that. Once he sat down, he unzipped his bag and pulled out his lunch and a book. 

"Is he sitting alone?" Yoongi asked as they looked out the window from where they were sitting. 

"I wanna go be friends with him", Jimin pouted 

"Yeah, why don't we sit with him?" Jin asks

"He looks scared of people," Namjoon said 

"I agree with Joon; you saw how he is with having attention on him," Yoongi said

"How about one of us goes?" Jimin said

"Let me guess your gonna volunteer," Mark said 

"Yup," Jimin said, packing up his food and taking his bag before walking out the cafeteria doors, heading straight towards Taehyung. 

Taehyung heard someone call his name; he looked up to see a boy walking toward him. 

"Hey, is it okay if I sit here?" Jimin asks, looking at the male, who slowly nods, confused.

"My name is Jimin; I was in your English class", Jimin said, smiling as he watched the boy give a short nod.

"Your name is Taehyung?" Jimin questions

Taehyung only nods while he looks towards the people playing. 

"You just started today?" Jimin asked 

A nod was the only thing Jimin got.

"Do you talk?" Jimin asked but soon regretted that as he watched Taehyung turn to look back at him before packing his things and walking away. The male was left speechless as he watched Taehyung walk toward the library. 

"Did he just walk away from him?" Yoongi asked as they all stared out the window and watched Jimin walk back to their group with a frown on his face. 

"So he did not like you then," Namjoon said

"Shut up; he did. He was just shy", Jimin huffed, sitting down on the chair next to his boyfriend, who smiled at him.

Jimin sat there the whole lunch wondering why Taehyung left when he asked if he talked; maybe that was not the right question to ask, but he wanted to get to know Taehyung. He did not like the thought of Taehyung being alone for some reason. 

He felt connected to the new boy, but he did not know why. 

'Why does he look so familiar' Jimin thought while staring at the tree he once sat at.
