Nobody's hero. //KTH AU.//

10.

After the class where I hardly even heard what out teacher told us about. All I got was that he was explaining about some weird science forces and I had 0% interest in whatever he was saying. My mind too much occupied with the thoughts of my parents.

I quickly got up, packing up all my books and notebooks in my backpack and turned around to walk away when I felt a tug at my hand, more like a tug at my brand new black colored bracelet that I very proudly wanted to flaunt today. I turned around, only to realize that my bracelet was somehow stuck with the hoodie of Mr. Kim Taehyung and all I wanted at that moment was for the ground to swallow me inside since I had no intention or energy left in me to fight someone right now and judging by his looks, he was quiet frustrated by whatever happened.

Although no one was at fault but I did want to blame him for nearly breaking my new favorite bracelet. I clicked my tongue against my teeth as I tried to pull my hand away a little, the keyword being tried, but thanks to my glasses, I was able to see that a thread was stuck in one of the beads and if I pull it any further, it might break and that was the last thing I wanted to happen right now.

"God!" I let out a huge sigh and slowly started to remove the thread from around the bead, not daring to look up at Taehyung for a second since I knew he must have the same bored expression on his face including a little look of annoyance because it was me after all, he hated me, as much as I hated him.

"Could you be a little faster, I don't have my whole life to stand here in front of you like this." He muttered but I was unlucky enough to hear what he said and it pissed me off more than I already was, as I looked up at him to see him looking back at me with those big brown eyes of his, if he wasn't such a jerk, I might consider him as boyfriend material but he had to ruin it by his ugly personality.

I smirked and slowed down, trying my best to make him more angry and I guess it did work because a scowl slowly started to form on his face when I looked back at him, it was weird how everyone had already left and we were all alone, but I was happy that we were alone or else rumors would be flying up in the air by now, and I did not want to get involved in any rumor specially with Taehyung, the guy who girls would kill to get. And I would be the number one victim if anything like this happens.

"You know what, forget it-" He started and started to step away, thankfully by then I had my bracelet all safe and sound around my wrist and let out a breathe I didn't knew I had been holding all this time, weird, again. Something I realized was that weird stuff happens whenever I'm around Taehyung which is again, very weird. Okay I need to stop.

"Gosh, you're such a-" He spoke again but I cut him off by picking up my bag and without a single word, leaving him alone in the class. As said before, I was in no mood to give some good comebacks to him and to waste my precious time on him. Yes, he annoyed the shit out of me but I wasn't dumb enough to try and prove myself right when it won't even matter to anyone except Taehyung and his huge ass ego.

I didn't hear anything after leaving the class and I was thankful for that as I quickly made my way to the hallway, noticing Jungkook I gave him a wave to catch his attention as he waved back at me 2x more enthusiastically, how can someone be so full of energy and smiles and optimism, he sometimes freaked me out but how optimistic he always was. Like okay yes, it's good to be happy but too much happiness is not normal.

"Where's Liana?" I asked, not noticing how he kept on looking at me with that weird look in his eyes, he shook his head, "No idea, maybe she left?" He spoke.

"Already?" I furrowed my eyebrows and mentally prepared myself to face the road and to walk home again, I seriously need to buy a car, I was thinking of asking for some extra money from mom or dad but that didn't seem like the best option now.

"Yep, and I have to go too, my mom's calling me. I hate being the only big brother and the man of the house because dad's hardly ever home." He explained although there was no need to, I practically knew everything about him, he was more of an open book.

"Yeah alright, guess I have to walk home again then." I spoke to myself as I walked out of the school building only to see how dark it was, my eyes traveled upwards to see dark cloud gather around in the sky, shouting at nearly everyone to get in their houses as fast as they can cause they are about to pee on us, ew okay no, not pee, but they were about to open their taps, better.

I rolled my eyes, not feeling like I need to rush home although I was a bit worried about my books and mobile phone getting wet, blame me for not watching the weather news today, since I had no umbrella too.

"And the day gets better." I muttered to myself as I started to walk on the road, the cloud making loud noises that scared the crap out of me at first but then I got used to it, the lightening was more scary than the thunder though.

I felt the first drop of rain on my cheek, and I mentally killed myself, it's not like I hated rain, I loved rain but today just wasn't the right day to be raining, specially not right now.

And before the blink of an eye, it started pouring, the huge raindrops hitting my head and my glasses, making it harder for me to see and I had to take off my glasses, thankfully I was still able to see without the glasses, and I fastened up my pace to go home or else I might get a cold.

Suddenly I felt like the raindrops didn't fell on me anymore, I furrowed my eyebrows as I looked up to see an umbrella over my head, my gaze then traveled to the person holding it, and for a second I thought I was dreaming, it can't be Taehyung, nope, how can he do a sweet gesture like this, specially to me. I must be dreaming.

"Taehyung?" His name escaped from my lips, still not believing it was him, but the expression, the same old blank expression told me that it was really him. Although his eyes had some emotion in them, but it was hard to read them clearly.

"We live close by and I don't want you sneezing around me in class." He muttered, the hold on his umbrella tightening, his knuckles turning a bit white, I didn't say a single word, I was thankful of him but at the same time, not, since he was still selfish and did all of this so that he won't get any of my sickness.

"Why are you always so rude?" I whispered to myself but I guess he did hear it, as he looked at me. After the whole eternity, his gaze finally moving away from the straight road ahead towards me. He seemed to be answer less for a second, maybe because he was always like that, a big ass weirdo.

And just as expected, he felt no need to answer my question as his eyes finally moved back to the road, my mouth hung low, how dare he ignore me? He can not just do that, he has no right to do that. But then again, I didn't care. I shouldn't care.

The whole walk was silent after that, nobody dared to speak a single word, I had thousands of questions running in my head but because of how cold he is, I knew he would never reply to any of my questions, and I don't want to be the dumb one here who gets no good replies and keeps on talking like a maniac.

Thankfully, I saw my apartment and a smile spread on my face, "Finally!" I spoke to myself as I quickly ran over to towards my building, not before muttering a small thanks to Taehyung who just stood there, with his hand in his pocket and the other one holding the umbrella tightly because of the harsh winds that nearly blew the umbrella away.

I turned to look back at him but he was already walking away, his gaze fixed ahead of him and he didn't even look at me for once, I felt relieved that we didn't nearly kill each other today, maybe because we were forced to walk all the way here, but what was quiet biazzare was that he held an umbrella for me, although it was no big deal but knowing how much we hated each other, this was something really unexpected.

So I changed the cover of this book, how is it? I mean I know I suck at editing but I try *lmao at myself*

Btw why did Taehyung show that kindness to Audrey who he hates a lot? Any ideas?

I added that song because it just suits the youthfulness of the characters in this book in at least one verse of it. (if that makes sense lol.) And also because the song is FIRE asf *Bultaoreune*
