He's Beautiful

chapter 3

GO MIRAE'S POV

After 102,752,939 years, the last bell rang, and I couldn't be any happier as I hugged my books to my chest and decided to bring them back to the dorm. As I was walking back, I could feel some of the boys in the hallway had their eyes on me, and most of them looked at me in disbelief while mouthing something about me being weak.

Why?

Feeling so insecure under their gazes, I looked around me, and it was then that I realized I'd been hugging the books to my chest with both hands and that I was practically hopping and looking so euphoric!

Well, isn't this too manly, Mirae?

I ignored my sarcastic thought and, with a poker face, took my hands away from my chest along with the books and brought them to my side.

I then dragged my feet to my dorm, trying so hard to look natural. As I entered my dorm, my right arm was numb as I dropped the book immediately onto the nearest table.

How can boys bring their books like that?

I stretched my arm in the air, relaxing my muscles, and grabbed the books again before bringing them with me to my table. The moment my eyes fell on my bed, I couldn't help myself but to throw my body onto it and sighed in relief.

Today was a long day, and my body deserved a good sleep.

I closed my eyes, and I was so close to checking into dreamland when a sudden loud bang woke me up, followed by the noise of people laughing loudly, which really annoyed me to death!

"Hey, Minjae, what's up?!" Taehyung straightly came towards me—who was still lying comfortably on my bed—and I gasped in my mouth when he jumped on my bed, right beside me.

A man was entering my personal bubble!

I reacted by quickly sitting up and scooting away a little, trying to make it go unnoticed.

Even though I'm camouflaged as a handsome boy, I'm still a beautiful, innocent girl on the inside. So, having a boy in my bed just feels... not right.

"Hey," I ran my fingers over my wig, "What are you guys doing here?"

"Jimin. He asked us to come over." He told me, and when he said "us," I knew he was referring to their clique that consists of 7 members whose names I didn't remember. "Do you have anything to eat right now? New kids usually bring a storage box full of food."

He grinned, showing me his pearly, shiny teeth while his hand was busy rubbing his belly, making circles around it, and my heart actually melted because of his cuteness.

"Well, mine is worth of Ramen—"

"Ramen? Cool! Can I have one? I'm so freaking hungry right now!"

"Of course, only if you give me a heater."

His eyes immediately lit up. "Jimin! Minjae wants to borrow your heater!"

"Hey! Not me, but you!"

He grinned. "Jimin! Can we borrow your heater?"

Jimin looked at Taehyung and thought for a few seconds before nodding his head. And that was all Taehyung needed to run to Jimin's closet and take the heater.

I took two cups of ramen from my storage box while waiting for Taehyung to boil the water.

"It's boiling." He opened his cup of ramen and poured the water into it. The oh-so-delicious smell coming from the ramen made me gulp in my saliva, and so did he.

"Can't wait to wolf this down my throat!" He said as he rubbed his palms together. After a few minutes, he grabbed the chopsticks and took a slurp of his ramen.
