Crush (i)

Good grief, forgive my rusty writing. Just wanna practice before I continue with my books (cause they are my babies).

Storyline: Jungkook has a crush on his visiting Literature professor. Being a regular student, his presence was less known to the professor and now, all the professor sees is him.

-

Never in his life did Jungkook think he'd catch his crush's attention in the most humiliating way. There is a timing for everything after all but this . . . had to be the worst one. A mewl erupted that instant as he turned off his microphone. "Mom please, don't ever . . . ever call me Koo Koo ever again!" He spouted back at his mother.

"Then what do I call you? I just wanted to know if you're attending any class."

Those blatant scorns from his mother wasn't bartering the laughs behind many screens, as he assumed. "Just go away." He whispered, covering his face when he saw the class group chat was blowing up.

' Koo Koo . . . dude that's embarrassing '

' boy that was adorable! '

' good job Kook that must've caught your crush's attention '

' not y'all exposing him '

' But hey look, Jungkook's still on the main screen. He's so shy. '

If not for this, Jungkook would have never wished the ground to swallow him whole. It was embarrassing, alright. "Jeon, how are you planning to take notes if you don't move your hands away." That was the first time the professor had called him out.

In every lecture by this particular professor, from being the most regular in college to attending unnecessarily timed extra online classes in morning and evening - Jungkook did everything just for the professor. Students volunteered too, good thing this Kim Taehyung, the Literature professor was good looking. Otherwise they wouldn't feel a bit hesitant to sleep in class with their videos turned on or in lecture room per se.

Flustered, "Um, I can see through my palms," Jungkook managed to say, lips twitching slightly in another wave of embarrassment for cooking up such an excuse. Group chat filled with comments yet again, pointing just that so his cheeks flared up red.

"Is that right, Koo Koo?"

Curse that handsome face of his professor adorned with that sharp smirk. Jungkook swore he felt his heart beating in his throat. "Uh-"

"Anyways, it's already time. See y'all in campus, have a good breakfast, yeah?" Students chirped back in response to the caring professor.

Jungkook sighed. Of course, that meant nothing. Why did he have to go all flushed? Signing off the class, he laid back in his bed, resting his chin on the pillow. "Koo Koo . . . " he muttered silently to himself before stuffing his face with the pillow and tossing in his bed for a good while.

✨

Focused as usual, Jungkook diligently took running notes of everything his professor uttered. It was like a Gospel in his ears, being recorded forever in his heart. That did not mean he was a scholar in that subject.

In full honesty, Jungkook sucked equally bad in Kim Taehyung's subject. He would just hear his voice, admire it articulate words in his notes and that's all. Nothing more, nothing less. "Ay Kook, what was all that flirting this morning, hm?" Nudged by the girl on his side, he could only stare regarding the question thrown at him.

"Sae Mi, no. What flirting?" He emphasized, "He always does that and it was finally my turn to be noticed, rather embarrassed." Jungkook fake cried, slumping on the desk as he was reminded of everything.
