Beep, beep beep. Rose sleepily groaned and rubbed her eyes.

"Five more minutes.." She grumbled, aimlessly hitting the alarm clock resting on her bedside table in an attempt to shut it off.

Then, she remembered what day it was, and as soon as she did, she sprang upright and leaped out of bed. Today was finally the day that her punishment was over, and all of those painfully long days that she endured  would be over and done with. Rose quickly opened her dresser drawer and picked out her school uniform and added a cute jacket. (See the picture above for reference and pretend all uniforms are that cute.) Then, she headed for the washroom and splashed cool water on her face, as if it already wasn't awake enough. Opening the drawer, Rose pulled out a black ponytail holder and several bobby pins. She quickly put her hair up into a messy bun and applied a little powder to her cheeks. Perfect. Just a touch of lip gloss and she would be ready to head to school.

As she runs downstairs she is welcomed by her sleepy eomma, Mrs.Yeon, who gives Rose a half hearted wave and throws something in her direction. It was a square package, weird. She decided she would open it later. Stuffing the package into her school bag and grabbing an apple, Rose practically bursts out of the door and runs to the bus stop, not wanting to miss a moment of the amazing day that loomed ahead of her.

Rose slammed her locker door shut and looked down the hallways, no sign of Taehyung yet. She decided to think nothing of it, after all, Taehyung was known as the "rebel" of her year, and often showed up to classes late. Rose takes a seat and watches the clock, counting down the minutes before she would officially be able to see Taehyung again.

5 minutes... 4 minutes... 3 minutes... 2 minutes... 1 minute...

Finally, the big hand of the clock reached the 12, indicating that classes were about to start. Still, there was no sign of Taehyung, and Rose was beginning to worry. She couldn't imagine what could have happened to him, they had texted late into the night last night and into the early morning hours, until both parties fell asleep, exhausted from their texting marathon. What if Taehyung had forgotten that he could see her and was avoiding her? What if something truly bad had happened to him? What if her eomma had told Mrs.Kim about her son and what he was doing after school hours? Oh that wouldn't be good at all, ugh I just mi- A strong pair of arms wraps around Rose's shoulders and twirls her out of her seat and onto the floor beneath her. Rose gasps.

"Taehyung?" Rose breaths, dazed.

"Yes, babygirl, it's me." Taehyung says as he kisses her cheek.

"Here, I brought you these." Taehyung says as he pulls out a bouquet of roses from behind his back, the sweet fragrance hanging in the air.

Rose yells out a cry of happiness and takes the roses, instantly pressing them to her nose. The fragrance was just so beautiful. Tears brimmed at the back of her eyes. This was all too much.

"I figured that they complimented your name." Taehyung says with a chuckle as he shows off his signature rectangular smile.

Rose chuckles and throws her arms around Taehyung's neck.

"I love this, just, oh my goodness, I mean I never- ah I love you so much Taehyung!" Rose cries as she passionately kisses Taehyung.

The entire class starts clapping snd cheering, along with a teary-eyed Mrs.Jhyu.

Once they break apart from their kiss, Taehyung smiles and looks into Rose's beautiful black eyes, endless and vast voids that he hoped would someday be filled to the brim with his love.

Rose giggles and ruffles Taehyung's hair. This was all so amazing and unexpected, she just couldn't believe it. Not being able to resist, she cups Taehyung's face in her hands, and kisses him.

"Aw, they are just too cute." Mrs.Jhyu says as she blows her nose with a Kleenex.

Taehyung rests his chin on Rose's shoulder as he thinks to himself: "I truly am the luckiest man alive, no matter what others can say, nothing will change that opinion of mine."

Smiling, he takes Rose's face in his hands and kisses her once more.

A/N: 743 words let's go :D I was feeling inspired but maybe that's because its 10:00 PM.
