It was the next day and Professor Choi partnered me up with Taehyung for our operational research. During the whole lesson, my head was hung low; unable to find the courage to even meet his eyes.

His beautiful.. beautiful.. eyes..

"Yah, Lee Chaewon." My name was called by Taehyung's husky voice and snapped from my thoughts. "You've been oddly quiet." He brought his head closer, allowing me to feel his hot breath hitting my ear. "Aren't you going to apologise for yesterday?"

I gulped and briefly looked at him before dropping my head yet again.  "I'm s-sorry," I whispered, audible enough for him to hear.

"Tch."

It was then, I felt a warm hand caressing my thigh underneath my desk. I took a sharp breath and started to hyperventilate. With no hesitation, I stepped on Taehyung's foot using my heels.

"Yah!" He angrily groaned in pain and stood up; causing the whole class to stare at us.

"Is there something wrong, Mr.Kim?" Our professor asked. Taehyung glared at me and looked back at the her. Before he could say anything, I pulled the hem of his shirt and made him sit down.

"It was nothing, Mrs.Choi. Taehyung hurt his leg yesterday and accidentally hit the table awhile ago." I smiled innocently. "Do excuse us for interrupting your lesson."

"If Ms.Lee says so," she exchanged glances at Taehyung to me. "Then, I trust you. Now, sit down." Once our professor turned her back on us, I received a strange look from the notorious boy next to me.

"Why did you lie?" His eyes searched my face.

My hair fell like curtains; hiding my face from meeting his gaze. I faced the board infront while Taehyung was still staring at me; waiting for me to answer. "It's my duty to help you, Taehyung. No matter how much of a troublemaker you are, I'll be here with you through thick and thin."

There was a long pause. I looked to my side and was surprised to have him staring intensely at me. He placed his elbow on the table and rested his chin on his palm. "Try all you want, Ms.Lee. You won't get any informations out of me," he said in a shushed tone. "And if I were you, I'd stay away from me too."

"Then, I'll just keep trying until I do."

He threw his head backㅡ chuckling softly before giving me a wry grin. "Thick as ever."
