At The Cafeteria

"What does he exactly want from me?" Tzuyu muttered stuffing her mouth with a full spoon of rice furiously and Dahyun gulped seeing her fumed look as she patted her back.

"What happened?" She asked and Tzuyu looked at her still chewing before explaining to her the scene happened earlier.

"Oh." She nodded stirring the spoon in the plate and Tzuyu stared at her confused.

"What do you mean by oh?"

"I don't see anything wrong with it?" She stared back at you questionly which Tzuyu reciprocated with the same look as her and she sighed.

"Tzuyu, Why are you thinking about it so much? What if he just wants to be friends with you?"

"Friends? Taehyung and friends?" Tzuyu scoffed shaking her head.

"He can't be suddenly showing an interest in me just because he wants to be friends with me, Dahyun."

"Or you are just not ready to let anyone walk in your life." She voiced out her remark with a hint of seriousness in her tone which made Tzuyu's movements halt as took a deep breath before placing the spoon down.

"You're right. I'm not ready and you know it better why." Tzuyu sighed before glancing at the front to see her classmate glaring in her direction and Tzuyu closed her eyes and fumed.

"If I get tortured by any of those girls, I'm going to kill that Kim." Tzuyu gritted her teeth before gulping down the water furiously and Dahyun could just rub her back gently for Tzuyu not to choke.

Tzuyu was sitting in her seat when the bell rang with her last class to end and students hurdled up to leave the classroom where Tzuyu was also doing the same but got called by her professor.

Placing her notebooks on the desk, Tzuyu was making her way to her table while passing by Taehyung's seat who was staring at Tzuyu while leaning against his chair.

"Tzuyu, can you do me a favor?" Miss. Choi smiled which Tzuyu reciprocated politely before nodding as she looked behind Tzuyu and then back to her.

"Can you tutor Taehyung for the English test coming up in three days or this semester too?"

Tzuyu blinked a couple of times confusingly. "Eh? Why me?"

"Because you are the top in this subject." She smiled proudly.

"Taehyung is good at every subject except English and this test is really important for your semester grades so, I don't want him to fall behind just because of this. So, will you help me?"

Tzuyu bit her lip pondering before looking behind at the male who just smiled innocently making Tzuyu scoff internally as Tzuyu sighed facing her and nodded.

"Okay, Mrs. Choi. I'll do it."

"Thank you, Tzuyu. I knew I could rely on you." She smiled patting her shoulder before looking at Taehyung who smiled at her and she just nodded walking out of the classroom.

Tzuyu didn't notice that since Tzuyu was busy in her thoughts before sighing as Tzuyu walked back to the desk before sitting on the chair and collecting her belongings. Tzuyu heard his chair screeching which Tzuyu thought, he would walk out of the classroom but flinched when Tzuyu found his hands on either side of her armchair with his breath fanning against her ear.

Taehyung was bending down behind her chair as he looked over her shoulder to peek at her face which was close to her ear before a smirk crept on his lips. "So, Sally? Your place or mine?"

Tzuyu scoffed lowly rolling her eyes before Tzuyu spun around her chair making him stand straight Tzuyu looked up at him with her crossed arms while giving him a tight smile which left him confused.

—————

"Seriously?"

Tzuyu almost snorted at Taehyung's baffled expression as both were standing at the entrance of the library door Tzuyu walked inside leaving him pouting and he followed her. Tzuyu greeted the librarian and walked ahead before throwing a glance at Taehyung who passed his infamous widest grin to the librarian which she reciprocated causing Tzuyu to roll her eyes.

Tzuyu found her table where there was no one as the university classes ended but the library is open till evening.

Tzuyu took a seat and saw Taehyung slouched down on the chair across from her.

"Really? Library?" Taehyung asked with his creased forehead before roaming his eyes around. "I don't like to come here, it's too silent."

"You have been here before?" Tzuyu asked sarcastically and he rolled his eyes nodding.

"Once because I needed to sleep in silence."

Tzuyu nodded unfazed. "That's what I thought."

"Gosh, Sally. It's boring here." He uttered a little loudly enough for the librarian to glance in her direction and Tzuyu glared at him.

"Shush. It's a library."

"I don't care." He stated boringly with the same tone and Tzuyu looked at him seriously. "But I do. You needed to be tutored and that's why we are here, so you better cooperate."

Taehyung just nodded and Tzuyu stood up as he looked at her confused.

"My notebook is at my home so, I'll go find one here."

Tzuyu walked towards the bookshelf with Taehyung trailing behind Tzuyu and Tzuyu shot him a confused look where he just smiled innocently. Shaking her head, Tzuyu spotted the notebook and attempted to grab it but it was too high where Tzuyu have to tiptoe which still didn't help.

Tzuyu looked at her side to ask Taehyung to pick it up but he was nowhere to be seen suddenly her felt a presence behind Tzuyu as their hand extended up close to hers before Tzuyu tilted her head to see Taehyung.

"Here." He handed out the notebook and Tzuyu grabbed it before stepping aside and looked at him unfazed before walking ahead.

"Didn't she feel anything?" He muttered confusingly enough for her to hear it as Tzuyu looked at him over her shoulder.

"These things are too old to be working on me. But nice try."

Tzuyu shook her head sighing as Tzuyu walked to her seat leaving a perplexed Taehyung who's lips turned into a smile. "Right. I almost forgot, you are too different to be in clichés."

As he walked up to Tzuyu smiling, he sat down on his seat before roaming his eyes around to spot a girl staring at him as he smiled at her leaving her flustered which made him chuckle.

If only eyes could roll to the back of her head.

That's what Tzuyu wanted to do after witnessing the scene as Tzuyu huffed.

"Are you done, so we can start now?"

Taehyung looked back at her questionly before smirking.

"Why? Are jealous?"

Tzuyu scoffed. "As if. I have to go home and I don't want to be late."

"Shush, Sally. We're in the library." Taehyung imitated her tone as he chuckled.

"That's why l asked you earlier about your home."

"And what made you think that I would let you be in my home."

"Umm, my instincts?"

"Yeah, right."

"Excuse me? Students."
