Chapter 7: What Could Happen Next?

~Ten Years Ago~

The cafeteria filled with gossip, fights, music, food being thrown across the room. Students running around playing some ridiculous game, while the athletes toss around their balls. Some that were high from smoking weed before school; munchy away like complete pigs. Couples eating away at each others faces, but being dumped with drinks from other students around them.

Yep this is the school that Taehyung personally attends to, a living prison full of idiotic morons. A life as a high schooler was always thought of being the most difficult situation in every teenager. But it turns out to be full of bullshit and annoying as hell. You got kids who are the goodie too shoes that suck up to very rule in school, while you have the rebels which is practically the whole school.

Tae never thought highschool would be like this, but it grew onto him like skin healing itself. The best thing for him that he enjoys the most is being a Junior, the high perks of being upper class, having the control to boss the younger students. Another thing of being upper class is the privileges to leave the campus for lunch and sometimes leaving school early, depending on the class schedule.

That's the only thing he liked about highschool, but the highlight of his day is his daily practices of baseball. He was the top of his team, not close enough as the captain of the team but the second to best. The home runner every time he hits, clearing the bases that were full. He’s lightening speed, that leaves everyone in excitement. His skills in base running, how to be aggressive. He’s able to play every position there is except for pitching.

He tried to pitch but they all ended up smashing into the school's windows and staff’s vehicles.
Not everyone can be good at everything but Tae had the mind of a professional baseball player. Knowing every plays, an understand different situations his team ends ups in. Reading the movements of each player from different schools and calculating the exact time to steal a base, or to hit the ball. He practically runs the sport, and even coaches for fun. In the summer he works as a trainer for the young baseball players and earns his money from there.

Baseball was his life and hobby, next to drawing. Tae was a real hell of a drawer, he’s able to sketch out a human being in explicit details. In middle school he won the artistes of the year for his beautiful painting of Seoul Korea’s landscape. He also won another award for his drawing of a person holding a baby in their palm. Tae has talent for sure and if he had to plan out his day he would choose those two; to play baseball and to draw.

Tae was sitting in the lunchroom along with his friends, with Jimin beside him. They were busy yapping away like conyers, laughing, eating, enjoying themselves.

Tae was munching on his sandwich until Jimin spoke up from out of the blue.

“You guys, Tae has a crush on the new kid.” Jimin sang away not worrying about the consequences he may face with Tae for saying that.

Everyone was silent, with food falling off their hands onto their plates, while Tae was choking on his food. All eyes were on Tae watching him choke. Jimin patted Tae’s back for support so he would stop choking.

“Tae….you have crush on the new guy already.” Hoseok pleaded out in amusement.

“(coughing) n..nnnn….nnooo (coughing)....i (cough) don’t….(coughing)”

“Yes he does and it’s adorable.” Jimin smiled while patting Tae’s back.

“(A lot of coughing)....no i don’t (coughing ) Ji..ji..min...I’m..(coughing) going to fu…(cough)..ckin kill you.” Tae gives Jimin a death stare, smacking his hand away from his back. His friends kept watching him not worrying that he’s choking, until Jackson hands Tae his water. Tae takes it and starts drinking it, but each gulp he takes, the cough makes it come right back up. He managed to drink the water and regain his breathing again.
