GYNOPHOBIA = FEAR OR DISLIKE IN WOMEN

-----------------------

Lunch was over as I was making my way to my next class alone. Unfortunately, Haylie and Alex had run into a problem with one of the arrangements in school, an emergency meeting soon in place to fix the issue. Luckily, they had given me simple and thorough instructions of how to get to my next to last classes just in case, to which I was incredibly thankful. 

I had arrived ten minutes early, I noted as I stepped into the classroom, finding it completely vacant. Closing the doors behind me, I flattered out my clothes once more before moving towards the back fo the classroom, choosing the seat next to the wide windows, enjoying the scenery. 

My vision focused the leaves of the trees as a gush of wind blew past, a series of fallen leaves hitting the ground. I placed my headphones onto my head, connecting them efficiently and blasting music as I spaced out. 


A finger tapped my shoulder lightly, to which I ignored earnestly. I don't need more drama, I thought as I continued to listen to music, acting as if I didn't feel the tap. However, as time passed, the same person increased the pressure on my shoulder, until they were almost digging their hand into my shoulder. I shook the hand off of me, turning around swiftly and glaring at the him, Jimin. 

"Hey, I was wondering when you were going to turn around," he said, popping a lollipop in his mouth. "What's up, new kid?" 

"None of your business, short stack," I curtly cut in, knowing that his height was still average, but highly contrasting to the people he hung out with. His eyes loomed over mine, his jaw clenched. 


"Answer my question," he demanded, his eyes turning slightly darker.
"The sky," I replied, "That's what up. My mood, however? Terrible, thanks to you." 


"Can't be, 'cause I'm here," Jimin said in a flirtatious tone, making me roll my eyes. I turned back to the front and placed my headphones back on, making sure to give him one last look. 
"Now... leave me alone," I smirked, before angling the metal frames of my headphones to reflect the sunlight into his eyes. He let out a loud groan as he covered his eyes, turning away from me. 

I smiled, turning back around as my attention was once again, focused on the scenery outside the window. I assumed he had left because, for the last remainder of free-time, I no longer felt someone attempting to gain my attention again. 

Jungkook POV~

I laughed hysterically as I saw Jimin-hyung trudge in my direction, his face red from anger and embarrassment. He placed himself in the seat next to me, not before hitting me once more for laughing, except this time it didn't hurt as much. 

"Didn't go so well?" I teased, my bottom lip sticking out into a pout. He gave me a sharp look, making me cackle again, before he turned his attention to Yoongi-hyung. 

"She rejected me, that's never happened before..."

"You didn't exactly give her to accept," Jin muttered, observing (Y/N) from a distance. "In fact, you gave her every reason not to accept your coy behavior..."

Jimin slammed his fist against the table, gaining the looks from all six of his friends, giving them deadpan stares.
"You watch, I can do it! Even in a week!" He proclaimed, ruffling his hair angrily, his orange hair standing in all different directions as he did so. Taehyung seemed to snicker at this, nudging his shoulder to me and Jimin. 

"Even when you're frustrated, you're arrogant, aren't ya?" 

"Not the time, Tae." Jimin bickered, his eyes focused onto the girl across the classroom. "Well, if you're that confident, hope about we place a little bet? How does that sound?" Hoseok suggested, making my eyes widen. 

Since when did Hoseok-hyung get so into this drama? 

"The first person to get (Y/N) to fall for them wins... simple, really. But it has to be out loud, none of that message BS," Hoseok continued, grinning. "We don't really need a timeframe for this, just you know, play with her until she agrees." 

"So you're going to deliberately screw with her mind?" I questioned, the words coming out harsher than I intended. All of them gave me a glance as if I had said something idiotic, except Jin, who seemed more interested in my opinion. 

I don't want to be apart of this. I don't know why... 

"What about each of your 'girlfriends?' Wouldn't they become angered at the fact we'd be doing this?" I asked. 

"Why would they? If they know it has nothing to do with feelings I'm sure they wouldn't mind. Their jealously might pan out the plan perfectly." Yoongi added, "Why are you suddenly so concerned for everyone's feelings? Especially when it had to be with people like Chung-Cha? I thought you were only with her because she's friends with your mom," I diverted my gaze from them, rubbing the back of my neck nervously. 

"Do you still have gynophobia?" 

"No! And I never had it," I yelled angrily, "You all made fun of me for it but I've never been scared of girls! Just nervous, I'm better now--" 

"Oh, don't tell me now you feel bad, that you've gained a conscious?" 

"I've always had a conscious! Thank you very much," I fought back, my anger rising by the second, I could feel the veins of my arm pop. 

"Then... have you fallen for someone? Fell for someone suddenly, to get a change of heart?" Jimin questioned, grabbing fistfuls of my jacket, tugging me forward. "You know we don't do that, we made a pact." 

Do I like someone? Impossible...

I threw him off of me, grabbing his hands and staring him dead in the eyes. 

"You question me again, and we'll have problems... I've said it before, I don't like anyone, I'm just sick of your antics... for someone who said we're playing around, you seem to play around a lot," I spat. "We're trying to fool the school, remember that. Who are you trying to fool? The students here? Or yourself?" 

I only think of (Y/n) as a regular student and nothing more... nothing less really. It's still the first day of school, dammit. Jimin-hyung's obsession with her is unhealthy, and everyone seemed to join in. 

"I'm in, but this is the last time I'm doing something idiotic," I complied. "I don't want to be involved in anything else after this, you all need to stop." But they only smiled, delighted that I decided to participate and quit trying to reason with them. 


"Great! It starts next week, may the odds be ever in your favor," Tae quoted, showcasing his signature box-smile, before sitting down. Before anyone could say more, the teacher had begun to scream at us to quiet down, and the class had begun five minutes ago. I began to scribble down notes as the teacher continued before Jimin whispered something in my ear. 

"Who knows? Maybe we can also mess around with Alex and Haylie while we're at it? Or do you not like that?"

I scolded, avoiding his gaze as I saw both Haylie and Alex, muttering a series of apologizes as they passed him their excusal slips. My heart sunk unexpectedly, watching the two of them bow and sit themselves to (Y/N).  

I'm sorry...

"Works for me, now shut up and pay attention," I scolded, sending one guilty glace to all of them, especially (Y/N). 

Fin.
