My tuition teacher | Kim Taehyung | BTS fanfiction

CHAPTER 3

Months passed, and Y/N's understanding of calculus improved dramatically. Each session with Taehyung was productive, and her confidence grew with every problem she solved. however, something else was growing too - an unexpected and confusing crush on her tutor.

It started subtly. She found herself looking forward to their sessions more than usual, feeling a flutter of excitement whenever she saw his name on her schedule. She noticed how his eyes crinkled when he smiled and how patient and kind he was, even when she made mistakes. His encouragement and the way he believed in her abilities made her special.

One afternoon, as they wrapped up another successful tutoring session, Taehyung praised her progress. "Y/N, you've really come a long way. You should be proud of yourself."

"Thank you, Mr. Kim", she said, smiling shyly. "I couldn't have done it without your help."

He gave her a warm, approving look. "You're the one doing the hard. I am just here to guide you."

As he walked her to the door, their usual routine, she couldn't help but notice how close they were standing. Her heart raced, and she felt a blush creepy up her cheeks. She quickly said goodbye and hurried out, feeling a mix of exhilaration and confusion.

That evening, Y/N sat at her desk, trying to focus on her homework, but her thoughts kept drifting back to Taehyung. She felt a pang of guilt. He was her tutor, a professional helping her with her studies, and she respected him immensely. Yet, her feelings had grown beyond admiration.

She confided in her best friend, Hoseok, one afternoon during lunch. "I think I have a crush on Mr. Kim," she admitted, feeling a weight lift as she spoke the words out loud.

Hoseok looked surprised but didn't judge. "Really? I mean, he is pretty great. But, Y/N, he's your tutor."

"I know," Y/N sighed, feeling torn. "I just....I don't know how to handle it. I don't want to mess things up or make things weird."

Hoseok nodded thoughtfully. "Maybe it's just a phase. Crushes can be intense, but they often pass. Focus on your goals and remember why you started tutoring in the first place."

Y/N knew Hoseok was right. She needed to keep her priorities straight. Her education was important, and Taehyung was there to help her succeed. She decided to keep her feelings to herself, hoping they would fade over time.

As the months went by, Y/N managed to keep her emotions in check during their sessions. She continued to excel in calculus, and her respect for Taehyung grew even deeper. Despite the lingering feelings, she focused on her studies, grateful for her guidance and the progress she had made.

One day, as she looked over her improved grades and reflected on her journey. Y/N, realised that the crush, while significant, had taught her a valuable lesson about managing her emotions and staying focused on her goals. She knew that, with time, her feelings would evolve, just as her understanding in calculus had, thanks to Kim Taehyung.

Taehyung's POV:

Taehyung had been tutoring Y/N for several months now, and he was impressed by her progress. When they first started, she had been hesitant and unsure, struggling with the concepts of calculus. But with each session, she became more confident and adept. He found great satisfaction in watching her grow, her eyes lighting up with understanding as difficult topics finally clicked.

Y/N was one of his most dedicated students. She asked insightful questions, wasn't afraid to make mistakes, and always did her homework. Taehyung admired her perseverance and her willingness to learn. It was clear she had a bright future ahead of her, and he felt privileged to be part of her academic journey.

One afternoon, as they finished a particularly challenging problem, he couldn't help but smile at her enthusiasm. "Y/N, you've done an excellent job today. You're really mastering this material."

"Thank you, Mr Kim," she replied, her cheeks flushing slightly. "I couldn't have done it without your help."

He appreciated her gratitude, but he knew the real credit belonged to her. "You're the one putting in the hard work, Y/N. I'm just here to guide you."

He walked her to the door, as was their routine, and noticed she seemed a bit flustered. It was a small detail, but over the months, he had learned to read his students well. He chalked it up to her being tired after an intense session and didn't think much of it.

Later that evening, as he reviewed his notes and prepared for his next round of students, Taehyung reflected on his time tutoring Y/N. She was a remarkable student, and he was proud of her progress. He viewed her with the same professional distance he maintained with all his students, ensuring that their relationship was always focused on her academic development.

One day, he received an email from Y/N's mother, thanking him for the significant improvement in her daughter's grades and confidence in math. It was moments like these that reminded him why he loved teaching. Helping students overcome their academic challenges and seeing them succeed was immensely rewarding.

Y/N continued to attend her sessions with the same dedication, and He continued to guide her, always maintaining a professional and supportive relationship. He saw her as a bright, hardworking student who had the potential to achieve great things. His role was to help her unlock that potential and support her on her educational journey.

As the school year progressed, he watched her grow not just in her mathematical abilities but also in her confidence and self-assuredness. He was proud of the young woman she was becoming and looked forward to seeing all the future successes she would undoubtedly achieve.
