By Their Side (BTS)(Hobi)

Chapter 8

Kim Tae's POV

My debut concert is only a few days away. I sigh deeply as I walk to the next class. We have rehearsal again today. Just like all the other times in the past few weeks, which have been interesting to say the least. For starters, I've unconsciously been avoiding Tak Hyun. I haven't gone out after we go to the dorms from practice because, frankly, I'm too tired to even walk. I'm somehow now one of the top few people in the class. I've also- Before I could relive the moments anymore, Taehyung had jumped next to me. "Hi~" He says while smiling. I smile back. I look down at our feet to see that we were walking at the same pace. I look over at him and he ruffles my hair before skipping ahead. He's so strange. I walk into the classroom door and find my seat. I sit down and get out my things for the class. I then look over across the classroom to see Hoseok. He looks over in my direction, smiles a bit, then looks away. I frown some.

He's been avoiding me since he pricked my finger. Of course, we would make small talk about rehearsal and class, but that's it. He doesn't tease me anymore. He doesn't genuinely smile around me either. I'm the only one. With everyone else, he's his normal self. I can't help to feel like I've done something wrong. I sigh and look back to the front of the class. It could be worse. At least I have Taehyung. 

As soon as the bell rings, the five of us go outside to meet Jin, Yoongi, and Jungkook. We file into the van before I close the door behind me. "You guys ready?" Ho Beom asks, looking through the rear view mirror. "Yeah..." We all mumble. While the rest of the guys talk, I put my head on my hand and look out the window. Does he hate me? I hope I'm not that annoying- Jesus, don't think about that. He's not that important to you, is he?  Without saying a word, I get out of the van and walk into the building. I bow to the people in the lobby and walk to the elevator. Ya, Kim Tae! Stop being such an emotional angsty teenager. They're going to know that something is wrong. Just talk to him. Idiot. I sigh and slide down the wall, eventually sitting down. Get yourself together. I breathe in and smile a bit.

I hear footsteps come closer, which was my cue to stand up. I lean against the wall and slap my face. Fighting! I look over at the members and smile. The elevator door opens with me being the last one to get on. After pressing the floor button, I stand next to Taehyung. He leans over to me. "You good?" He whispers. I look over at him and nod. Before I could say anything back, Jin slapped my head lightly. I look back. "Hyung, that hurt!" I whine. "Always whining. Who told you to leave before hearing directions?" He says. I sigh and bow slightly. "Sorry." I say before standing up straight again. The elevator doors open and we walk to the practice room. I poke Taehyung causing him to look over at me. "What are we doing?" I whisper. "Stylists are here today so we can practice in the outfits." He whispers back. I nod and walk into the room.

I make eye contact with Yoonhye before smiling. I walk over to her and bow slightly. "Please take care of me." I say before smiling at her. I sit down in the chair and she sits down next to me. "Do you know the theme for the concert?" She asks. I shake my head. "Good v. Evil. Pretty generic, but it should look good." She says. I nod. "So who's good and who's bad?" I ask. She smiles. "You, Jimin, and Rap Mon are evil." She finally says. "Even though I argued that you would be better suited for good. I can't go against my seniors." She says, laughing awkwardly. I smile. "Sounds fun. Evil is better anyway." I say. She smiles and nods. "Let's get started then."

Yoonhye walks to one of the clothes racks and brings back an outfit already prepared with knee high black lace up boots. "Try this on first." She says. I nod and grab the clothes from her before heading behind the changing station. After minutes of me figuring out how to put on the clothes, I walk out. (I mean she didn't walk out that fabulously. RIP.)
