BTS Imagines

Taehyung ~ Try Me

REQUESTED BY @vtaehyunggie

Everybody knew that you are head over heels for Taehyung. He's got quite an impressive number of fan girls being that he was one of the school's best swimmers. However, it wasn't because of the fact that he was handsome or he was good at swimming that you liked him. Your feelings for him was deeper than that of any of his fan girls. The root of your one sided feelings reached way back when you were kids, when he was a bit chubby and incredibly shy.

Taehyung doesn't have any memory of who you are while you, on the other hand, remember everything about him. You literally knew everything, from his favorite snack to his favorite mole on his arm that he called Mr. Ellie, which earned you leverage against others who liked him too.

It's true that he changed greatly but you can still see that little chubby kid in him when he smiles. It was a shame though because he rarely smiled nowadays not like when you were young. He lost his precious smile the same time he lost his soft, squishy cheeks. Something must have happened between the time when he moved away and when he moved back to their old house.

"KIM TAEHYUNG!"

You held a large bedazzled banner with Taehyung's name over your head as he climbed up the swimming platform. He spotted you among the other competitive fanclubs that was present on that day. The connection was short and pretty much just a blank stare from him but you're heart was jumping from joy because he looked at you.

You took your seat when the audience was told to settle down. Taehyung pulled his goggles down over his eyes and stretched for a bit, shaking his arms to rid him of his precompetition jitters. You watched with focused eyes as he prepared himself, bending down the platform, waiting for the starting pistol to go off.

bang!

He was under the water as soon as the signal was given. Taehyung's swimming style was the most wonderful thing you have ever witnessed in your life, his front somersaults are just so smooth, his shoulders look so broad as he did his signature butterfly stroke.

An ear splitting scream came from his fan club when he secured another gold medal. It was the school's second gold medal today. You were on the edge of your seat grinning and clapping like a fool.

After the competition, you wanted so bad to see him even for a short time, just a glance would be enough but you know too well that he was shy and he hates it when people crowd on him so you gave it a rest. Instead of seeing him leave through the front gate, you went the opposite way, avoiding the bunch of fan girls that ran past you. You were on your way to meet your friend near the locker rooms when you heard someone call you;

"Hey."

You turned around to the direction of the voice. Taehyung was leaning against the wall with his bag on his shoulder. "Were you the one who kept giving me these?"

You stared at the small item in his hand, the anklet with a small dolphin charm that you made for him. You nodded your head at him and smiled, "It's a good luck charm. They say that-"

"I don't want it." He cut you off, handing the item to you. "Stop putting things in my locker. It's annoying. I don't want to receive anything from you so just stop."

"Oh okay.. I thought you liked dolphins. You used to like them when we-" You stopped in an instant, clamping a hand over your mouth, when you realized what you were about to say.

"What was that?" Taehyung squinted his eyes at you.

You shook your head and squeaked, "Nothing."

"No, you were about to say something. I want to hear it." He took a step closer with his suspicious gaze on you. He can't know about you.

"I-It was really nothing." You mumbled and jumped when he cornered you against the lockers, his arm beside your head.
