Rivals - Taejin

Chapter 4

*3rd person's POV*

It was morning. 6.a.m..
Seokjin had been procrastinating his alarm clock.
Usually he wakes up at 5 am to do his morning routine, but that was not happening today.
His head was hurting. He felt his head pulsating. With a groan he turned in his bed to continue his sleep at least till 7 am.

He came back late home last night. It was around 3 a.m..
After the fight, Jungkook had called an Uber for the both of them, since they both had drank.

It was a stupid idea to go to a party directly after the first day of school.
Who would have thought that it would've escalated that way.

It was now time to wake up, Seokjin had slept one more hour.
He had to go to school. He cannot miss any classes. He still had a reputation.

With a groan Seokjin opened his eyes. He was hungover.
That was not good at all. All though he had many difficulties getting up, he still made it to the shower, to freshen up.
He decided to wear something chill.

(WHY DOES THIS MAN LOOK LIKE JIN)

Seokjin's POV:

I can't go to school. I'm so drained. My rips, I can't feel them anymore. Taehyung's punches weren't light. But at least my bruises are not on my handsome face. I kicked his face real good.

I must give me that.

I shouldn't have acted that way. After all I have given him the first punch. But he shouldn't have provoked me that way.

I shouldn't worry about this now, I should worry about getting to school as early as possible.

I wasn't expecting to cross paths with Taehyung this early but here I saw him getting out of his car.

I couldn't  help but laugh at him.
"You wearing a mask now? Trying to cover up the bruises?", I teased.
"Seokjin, I'm too tired to deal with you.", he said and walked along me without sparing me a look or provoking me.

Alright I must have kicked hard for him to be acting that way.

He took off his mask and threw it into a bin.

I just shrugged. I don't care. Him being in a mood, brightens up mine. And he should stop acting like he is the only one who is hurt. My ripcage might be broken. That might be exaggerated but I have a few blue dots.

I should head to class now.

I'm now sitting in class. Preparing myself for a great nap. But nooooo.

The announcement speakers go on:
"KIM SEOKJIN AND KIM TAEHYUNG, you are awaited to the principals office. KIM SEOKJIN AND KIM TAEHYUNG. I repeat KIM SEOKJIN AND KIM TAEHYUNG."

Now what did this douche bag get us in again.

As I made my way to the principals office, I saw Taehyung being as confused as I was.

"What did you do again?", I asked him.
"I did not do anything, I would rather ask you, what did you-", Taehyung argued back.

"KIM SEOKJIN AND KIM TAEHYUNG IN MY OFFICE! NOW!"

"Yes ma'am", we both say and head to our principal's office.

Had I mentioned that she is really strict and a real Karen. I cannot wait to get lectured now and go die after.

"SIT", the woman barks.

"I'm sat.", Taehyung says.
This guy-
Never fails to joke. But it wasn't funny. He's so not my humour.

"Seokjin and Taehyung, your coach has told me about you two, students have told me about you two but I wouldn't have imagined that you two hate each other that much. I've seen the video."
"What video?", I ask genuinely confused what video she's talking about.
"The video of you two fighting at a party has become very popular amongst our students."

I gulped.
Oh shit. I'm going to kiss my graduation and basketball career goodbye.

"Mrs. Miller, I don't know what you are talking about, can you show us the video.", Taehyung acts dumbfounded. Great.

"Of course, you may as well grasp some popcorn and tissues. It's going to be both exciting but also embarrassing."

And there it is. She clicks the start button.
Well fuck.
It was clear as day. Taehyung and I both fighting like two cats.
Our faces didn't even bother to not show. They were clear, video literally filmed in 4K.

"Yeah no that's not me.", Taehyung says, acting unbothered.

"Yeah and I'm your mother.", she sarcastically jokes.

I was not sure if I should interfere. I mean there was no talking out. Maybe honesty would get me somewhere.
"Mrs. Miller, I know this seems very bad but we were dru-"
"WE WERE PRACTICING-", taehyung interfered.
He threw me a dark expression. Like don't you dare tell her we were drunk.

"Practicing for?", Mrs. Miller asks.
"We'll, practicing to hug in a fighting scene. We want to start an acting career if basketball doesn't turn out well.", Taehyung said with a cheeky smile.

Mrs Miller was looking unimpressed by his excuse.
"Anyways so, as you mentioned basketball. I'm going to make it quick as possible. Your coach and I had a conversation about you two. We both noticed your rude behaviour towards each other and it has to end. That is why we are sending you off to a camp in which you guys learn to respect each other and work together as a team. Your parents are also informed, if they have read the mail that we had sent them of course."

Okay wait. That's. Not. Gonna. Happen.
No.
Absolutely not.
Naaaah.
"Taehyung pinch me. I allow you to pinch me.", I tell him. I think I'm dreaming. I'm in a nightmare.

"OUCH! NOT THAT HARD YOU IDIOT.", I said gripping on the pinched area.

He only shrugged.

"How long will we be staying there?", Taehyung asks
"Until you become friends."
"WHAT?!?", we both exclaim.

Okay now I really need to wake up.
Seokjin wake up please.
SEOKJIN wake up.
The pinch must have been a sting from a bee.
Wake up.

Taehyung on the other side looked  weirded out as hell.
"I had enough of your bullshit, ur not dreaming, it's reality!"

I look at him.
"Stop interfering in my real life crisis you Shrek looking donkey.", I argue.

"Have you seen yourself-", Taehyung began.
"OKAY THATS ENOUGH BOYS. GET OUT OF MY OFFICE."

With a screech sound Taehyung gets up from his chair and leaves the room.

Today was officially the start of a lifetime nightmare.
I won't be friends with this guy even if they paid me.
