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

15.

I tapped my pen against the wooden table as I looked around to see that I was the only one who completed the test first and couldn't help but feel proud of myself, English was the only subject I was pretty good at. Getting bored of waiting, I started humming a random k-pop song quietly which I was obsessed with these days. As I looked at my side to see Hana indulged in her paper as if her life depended on it and by the looks of it, she hasn't even filled a single blank yet. My gaze shifted towards my right to see Taehyung who seemed bored and didn't even bother trying as he swiftly filled up all the blanks, his writing messy, messier than mine and I was thankful for having a better handwriting in my life for once.

"You really should stop staring at people." He suddenly spoke as he looked at me, my eyes widened and I looked away. I was so not staring, I was observing.

"There's a thing called observation, weirdo." I spoke through gritted teeth trying my best to not catch Mrs. Diana's attention, she would be so disappointed from me if she finds out that I was talking or maybe if she misunderstands, cheating in a test.

Taehyung was still the same in school, the old Taehyung that I hate as he had a bored look on his face and didn't even look at me for once, pretending as if last night never happened, I was somewhat thankful because I didn't want him to talk about my personal life in front of everyone although I felt like I could trust him. And because I didn't want girls to kill me for talking to someone who they die to talk to but fail every time because this arrogant dumb ass never notices them. Good for him though, not that I care.

He didn't speak a single word to me throughout the day and Hana had left early because she had some medical problems that I was not interested to find out, following the number one rule in my life, 'Not care about other people's personal lives.'

I sat alone, being quiet the whole day was a huge task for me and I think I nearly succeeded, but after the day finally ended and I got up to leave, I nearly bumped into Taehyung who was a little too eager to leave the classroom first. My head colliding with his back as I took a quick step back to look up to him, who was already looking back at me with a huge scowl on his face as if I bumped into him purposely.

"Watch where you're going." He spoke while my mouth hung low at how rude he was, nothing near the Taehyung I talked to last night. As I always mention, he's a pure weirdo.

"Whatever, weirdo." I replied as I walked away from him, he stood there for a while but I soon heard his footsteps behind me and I took in a deep breathe to calm myself down and not let the anger get the best of me, he was just Kim Taehyung, no one too special who I would waste my anger on.

He overtook me and left, his pace fast because of his damn long legs, not that I cared. In fact I was thankful he didn't bother me much today, he was just a little too much in classes, I preferred the Taehyung at the park but then again, he was a bit more different there and it freaked me out at how nice he was, so the Taehyung here is still better.

I opened my locker to collect my extra books that I always kept with me just in case, making a paper fall down, I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion while picking it up and turning it around to see what the hell was a piece of paper doing in my locker, a love letter? Nah I'm too ugly for that, maybe a message from Liana? Or Jungkook?

'You'll come to the Park today, right?' Was all that was written there, and after a couple of moments passing away I realized who it was, Taehyung. It was really unexpected for him to do such a thing as ask me if I'll be there or not but still, I couldn't help the smile that formed on my lips after reading the paper and recognizing his messy handwriting. At least he tried to make it readable.

But why did he even write something like this? It was a little too cliche according to him to do something like this, it was unusual but cute at the same time and cute didn't suit this guy who was tall and lean, his face always having a bored look plastered on it with his perfectly shaped eyebrows and his nose, not too small and neither too big, then his lips, a shade of pink that looked always chapped and plump, he really was nothing near cute. Why the heck was I even thinking about him and his features when I should be scowling at his weirdness yet again. What the hell is wrong with me.

I felt a hand on my shoulder as I looked around, quickly throwing the paper inside my locker for some reason I didn't feel like showing this to anyone, since when did I hide secrets when I was an open book? It was Liana and I suddenly felt bad for not telling her about this but knowing her, she would freak out and either scold me for talking to someone as rude as him or either start making ship names for us and I wanted neither.

Followed by her, stood Jungkook. Weren't they a little too much together today? Before either of them could say anything I held Liana's hand and dragged her away from him, excusing him by saying that it was a girl problem when he took a step forward to follow Liana. Thankfully he believed me.

"Okay, what the hell is going on between you two?" I asked while I saw her face going red all over again, somebody like Liana was blushing and it made me question so many things about life. For some minutes she stayed quiet, probably finding the right words to say and although I did have a hint about it, but I still wanted to hear it from her mouth.

"He-he proposed to me.." She spoke as my mouth was left hanging, I didn't know if I should feel happy or sad about this. Yes Liana was my best friend and I should be happy that she got such a good guy for her who I knew won't hurt her but having a crush on him was harder, I had been liking him since 7th grade and I couldn't help but feel betrayed, jealous. Even though I knew he didn't like me back but I had hope in me. Thankfully and fortunately It didn't hurt that much, for some reason I was more happy than jealous.

"And you said?" I asked, encouraging her to tell me as I gave her a huge smile, it wasn't forced and I was surprised myself at how I didn't feel sad at this. A little part of me did ache but a bigger part of me was happy for both of them. Maybe I did move on, finally I could move on and find some other person to crush on. Having one crush for such a long time was tiring too. Good god, there's definitely something wrong with me.

"I said, yes." She spoke as she let out a breathe she was holding in, and I grinned at her, telling her that I was so happy for her as I gave her a tight hug. Watching her happy was really everything for me, she was like family to me, a family who never left me when my real ones didn't even care for me.

So I'm back and I intend to finish this story because there are too many unfinished books and it makes me uncomfortable (?)
Life has been quiet hard because i can't pursue the career I want aka 'writing' because of the societal pressures that I'm too scared to fight back against, so I'll try to do it here i guess?

Btw Do you like Jk and Liana? Or Jk and Audrey?
