BEEP BEEP BEEP.

Taehyung rolled onto his side and let a groan escape from his slightly chapped lips. He reached for his phone on his bedside table - which read the time 06:30am - and without second thought, he slammed the snooze button. The cool September air seeped through the gap of his slightly opened window and danced with the curtains, allowing them to flutter delicately. It was still dark outside , a singular street lamp and the fading moon outside of his window allowed a slither of light to access his room. The autumn breeze flowed in his direction and nipped at his nose to which he responded by sliding further into the comfort of his silk sheets, forgetting about his busy day ahead and drifting back to sleep.

"Taehyung! ... Taehyung wake up!!" A loud but frail voice echoed throughout his room.

"I swear to God this boy will be the death of me" the voice muttered.

"TAEHYUNG!"

He stirred out of his sleep, dazed by the abrupt loudness filling his ears during the early hours of the morning.
"w-what??" he questioned , still half-asleep , rubbing his eyes with the balls of his hands.

"You're going to be late for your induction day young man, you can't give a bad impression on your first day of university. So I suggest you move ... now "

SHIT.

Taehyung flung himself up and checked the time on his phone. It read 08:07am.
'No .. No .. No .. this can't be happening' the boy panicked as he darted out of his room and down the hall, into the bathroom that he shared with his grandma. He heard his grandma chuckling from his room at his frantic actions but was too overwhelmed with stress to care.

{Taehyung had lived alone with his grandma from a young age}

Once in the bathroom, he approached the mirror and physically lifted his hand to his face in shock as he stared at his reflection. "Damn you Kim Taehyung" he ground his teeth and muttered as he stared at his swollen face. "Why did you have to eat that instant ramen so late , now look at what you've done!!". His pale, bread like cheeks were puffed out more than usual, leaving him to look like a rather stuffed dumpling. Without much time to act, he ran the faucet and splashed endless amounts of ice cool water onto his face in attempts to reduce his swollen appearance. The water droplets trickled down his smooth , buttery skin, falling elegantly down his neck and onto his exposed collar bones that were peering from his pyjamas which hung loosely on his small frame. With no room for relaxation, he then intensely scrubbed at his teeth and somewhat fixed his ash brown  hair whilst visualising an outfit to wear.

Now back in his room, he rummaged through the endless amount of clothes hung up in his wardrobe to find the outfit he had envisioned. Although he was running behind schedule, Taehyung hated to be underdressed, he adored fashion and thrived off of compliments regarding his outfit choices. He picked out a pair of tan coloured wide leg trousers, accessorised with a thin belt and a black turtleneck which was tucked  into the waist of his trousers. He paired this with an oversized deep brown coat and a pair of black loafers. He sprayed his cologne which smelt like a warm , cosy home - its main scents being vanilla and coconut. He grabbed his phone, slid his backpack onto his back and scampered downstairs into the kitchen.

The smell of the delicious breakfast his grandma was making filled his nose which made his stomach grumble , reminding him he hadn't eaten. Unfortunately as the time was speeding by, he was unable to dig in into the mouth-watering food his grandma had cooked and therefore had to grab a granola bar before rushing out of the door.

"Bye grandma! I love you" he shouted as he closed the door behind him , in too much of a rush to wait for her response.

"Gosh that boy is crazy"
