// Chapter 5 - Under the Oaktree //


**Taehyung's POV**

"The game's starting soon."

Taehyung hums in response as he savors the ice cream in his hand. He swings his legs up, crossing them on the bench.

"Are you going?"

He silently wishes that his friends would stop fretting over the damn game. Can a man enjoy his ice cream on an early Autumn day in utter peace? One of them sighs, Taehyung guesses it's Jin - he has a habit of doing it when he's trying to "give up convincing" him. Clearly a method of guilt-tripping him. It wasn't working today.

Namjoon and Jin flop down on the bench, flanking Taehyung on both sides and decides to stop pestering the kid. They wouldn't admit it but the two boys were very curious as to what Jungkook wanted to say to Taehyung. The Jock made it so dramatic, screaming from across the courtyard while getting dragged by his friend that it made the whole "secret" even more intriguing. Said secret could be about something as banal as a missing sock for all they know.

"Can I at least have a taste of your ice cream?" Namjoon asked softly with a sheepish grin. It wasn't his fault that he left his wallet back at his dorm and couldn't get himself a treat.

With a small smile tugging on the corner of his lips, Taehyung moves his arm, tilting the ice cream cone towards his dimpled friend without saying a word. He was still insistent on keeping mum until he finishes the cold treat.

It was a queer habit that he picked up as a kid. When faced with a tough decision, he goes out and buys a cone, sits down and mulls over the cons and pros of the decision while slowly slurping on the chocolate flavored ice cream. There was something about the cold confectionary that helps in the thinking process.

And right now, Jeon Jungkook deserved at least two cones. That boy and his cute bunny smile made Taehyung feel like a confused adolescent child who's going through puberty. Since agreeing on Namjoon's suggestion of getting over Jungkook when the clock struck 12 am - four days ago - Taehyung has been trying his hardest to erase the Jock from his head.

No more detouring to the Lacrosse field, no more lingering by the Oak tree, and no more secretly daydreaming about him. It was for his own good, he decided. So, now that he was progressing in losing interest in Jungkook, the boy decides to show up. Worst, yelling at him to come to the game and then to meet him at the Oak tree.

Also, side note, how the fuck did Jungkook know that he would understand which Oaktree the boy meant? That little detail nagged at the back of his head.

"Cone's finished!" Namjoon yells out, his voice muffled by his full mouth. Only then did Taehyung realize that the older boy had taken a huge chunk of the cone, leaving him with the teeny bottom.
