10 WAYS TO COURT OMEGA KOO || TK

01

Thinking Taehyung is the reincarnation of his grandfather is the most cliche thing you could possibly do. But if you did, congratulations—you've joined the club of the delusionals. And perhaps I wouldn't have to introduce you to Kim Taehyung, the club's president.

The guy was smiling to himself, thinking perhaps he had the charm of his grandfather, that's why they called him after him, only to learn later that his parents had just run out of creativity while naming him. They decided to call him after Pops because they both had birthdays in the same month, apparently. 

Taehyung's heart was then shattered into a million pieces when his cousins highlighted the difference between him and his grandfather. It wasn't until the grandmother noticed the boys muttering to themselves as she sat at the kitchen island for a while. She then called Taehyung over and whispered softly into his ears, "He had his charm. And you, Tae, have your own."  she said with a big smile on her face.

Unbelievable as it may seem, Taehyung felt a little confident after that. Now, He was determined to court the omega no matter what-- And that was the very reason why he was currently in the bookshop café, about to take the first step towards befriending his crush.

The guide suggested a variety of strategies, some of which Taehyung thought he might adopt, including: 

a. asking for help shortly after beginning to speak casually. 

b. Taehyung could only accomplish the one mentioned above.

Taehyung is an extrovert, therefore if someone asked him to make friends with someone else, he would do so without hesitation. But befriending your crush? Hell, nawh. It's like putting oneself in the friend zone and allowing the break out of that zone from your supposed relationship to become your nightmare. Even if it worries him at the moment, that is the only way he can take two steps forward without taking four back. 

Then, after taking a big breath, the eighteen-year-old pushes into the space. His pulse rate increased, and adrenaline raced through him. He could have been sweating as well, but the air conditioner most likely concealed that fact. Thanks to his cycling gloves, he didn't have to wipe the sweat off his hands on his cargo pants. 

His throat felt a bit dryer as he inhaled deeply once again. He was now standing in front of the reception desk while observing the omega sitting in the chair, who had been fixated on the desktop in front of him. Taehyung's cheeks slowly stained a shade of pink at the sight of his crush's face up so close. 

"Hello, how may I assist you?" While keeping his gaze fixed on the desktop, the receptionist enquired.

"A-ah-hi-"

"Taehyung!" The voice of Jimin cut him off. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck! What is he doing here at this time? He curses him mentally. Hindrance. This is a hindrance in his romantic life! Certainly Not Fair! Unfair! He can't talk to Jungkook in front of him - Is this embarrassment? Shyness? Or is it what Jimin usually calls him "Corwardness acting up or Gutless" NO!! God!! NO!! 

When he turned away from his best friend to glance back at the omega, who was now looking back at him with wide-set eyes, fingers still on the desktop, and brows up in surprise the sound of "Hey, Tae!" brought Taehyung's world to a halt. The question "Are you going to read today?" Made Taehyung's heart drop. Is He talking to him? He is?? He was too lost to truly comprehend what the younger man was asking, so he just nodded. "Here's a book I recently finished; would you like to read it?" His gentle expressions made Taehyung's throat dryer - made his heart skip multiple beats and blood rush all over his face. 

He stammered, "S-sure," while attempting to contain the blush-ie smile that was forming on his lips. His crush just recommended him a romance novel, isn't it equivalent to marrying?

While his best friend continued to laugh Taehyung groaned. "H-he recommended everyone in the café right now to read the same book,"  [I'm sorry Taehyung but I need to laugh too bahahahahha.]  Taehyung then sank into the couch, disappointment and hindrance in his about-to-be romantic life are just!!! Ahhhh! 

"Jimin! "Stop it!" Jin tried to hushe him as he consoled his other friend. "Taehyung, consider the positives. He spoke with you."

Ah, wait.

He spoke with him.

Jungkook greeted him.

They had their VERY FIRST conversation ever.

Also, did Jungkook addressed Taehyung as Tae????? Taehyung's heart quickened again at the realization, he then lifted his face a bit to look at the reception desk only to find -
