Not Just Academic Rivals || Yang Jungwon x Female Reader

♡Chapter 7♡

— Author's POV —

Jia leaned back into her seat as she sighed happily. "And that was how my job went!"

The five (except Jungwon) looked at her, impressed.

"Not bad! I didn't think you were barista material, or cashier material." Minji commented.

"Wait. You need to get hired? Like they don't just find people to work for them?" Yunjin asked, confused. Sunoo gave her a bombastic side-eye.

"Girl, have you been living under a rock?" Wonyoung asked sarcastically. Wow, first time seeing the graceful and kind girl be sarcastic. But don't worry, you'll be seeing more of that;))

"More like having butlers and maids do everything for you in a palace, judging what goes on with others?" Sunoo spat.

"Hey! That's offending!" Yunjin complained.

Sunoo rolled his eyes.

"Nah, he's stating facts." Ni-ki added jokingly. Yunjin glared at him while Jungwon laughed.

"Okay, that's enough!" I said, stopping them. "Teacher's here, go back to your seats."

Soon enough, he did.

"Hmm. Jia! Read the passage."

I jolted awake from my sleep as I stared confused. "Uhmm, I looked down at my book and at my seatmate's. I was three pages behind. And the professor was watching me. My face flushed red as I stuttered, standing up.

My seatmate secretly pointed to the said passage. I sighed mentally, relieved. "When-"

"That's enough. Jia, detention after class!" He declared, his eyebrows furrowed.

"What!? But- I-" I tried to defend, but he cut me off.

"You were sleeping in my class. No buts, you are having detention."

I sighed as I sank down into my seat slowly. I have never been in detention before. I felt a finger tap my shoulder as I reluctantly turned back to see Riki. I raised an eyebrow at him.

"You can come with me! I have detention after class as well!" He excitedly whispered. I rolled my eyes.

"Not helping." I muttered under my breath as I turned back to the board, placing my head on my palms.

For the first time, I'm not excited for dismissal. I keep getting reminded of my detention.

"Hey Shortie! Detention huh?"

I turned to see of course, Yang freaking Jungwon. I rolled my eyes, ignoring him. He chuckled, walking closer before placing his elbow on my head.

"Not so perfect anymore, shortie!" Jungwon snickered.

I rolled my eyes once again, ignoring him.

"So you lost your voice now? Perfect. I don't have to hear your nagging and teasing anymore, and your voice that sounds like a mouse."

I groaned, looking ahead to see Riki. Never have I ever been so happy to see him. "Oh look! My favorite boy is here! Gotta go!" I answered, waving at him beofre running to Riki and side hugging him. Riki chuckled.

Jungwon rolled his eyes. "Yeah yeah, have fun in detention!" He teased.

"I will! Since Riki is with me!" I shot back, making him scoff.

He then walked away. I pulled away from Riki before hearing him snicker.

"Yah, do you like me or something? You said you'll have fun because I'm with you."
