Your POV

"For this research project, you'll need a partner. I have already picked the partners, and no, you can't change partners."

My heart dropped at those words. It was Tuesday, after a long Monday, and this was one of the only classes I didn't have with Jungkook. I was sitting in this classroom at 8:30am, doing it for the fuck of it. It was a simple general research class, teaching the important things to look out for in various situations. It had said there would be opportunities to work with partners, not that it was required. I'm really terrified who I'll get. Please don't be like a stereotypical drama, please don't be like a stereotypical drama.

The teacher started listing names. As she got closer and closer to my name, I figured out how she was deciding who were partners. I was fucked. She was matching up kids by grades and that meant one thing.

"Kim Namjoon and Jeon (Y/N)."

"Fuck," I muttered.

We were the top of the class, it made sense. I could see despair on girls faces as they wish they had studied. On other girls, I saw hatred towards me, as if cursing the fact I actually worked hard. Jimin was the one who had really started pulling me out places, and that's recently. It's not my fault that I really had nothing better to do than study.

"Please group up with your partners and I'll let you choose a topic from the sheets handed out."

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

"Can I sit here since it's open?"

I grimace up at Namjoon and look at the open seat next to me. I really wanted to decline and tell him to go fuck himself, but he might actually do that. Instead, I turned back to the paper underneath me and signaled to it.

"Go ahead."

I cringed as he did, smelling the strong scent of cologne. My sinuses immediately started to ache and I nearly sneezed. I rubbed my nose to stop the sneeze, but it hurt so much. I looked at the sheet to try and decide what I wanted to do, but saw practically nothing I wanted to do. I looked over at Namjoon, seeing if his ass could at least pick one. He was staring at me.

"Do you have any interests?"

He shook his head without breaking eye contact.

"Well, I hope you can pick one because I don't want to do any of them."

He didn't respond, just kept staring. Is he trying to get me to like him by avidly staring at me? I'm not that easy.

"Look, if you're just going to stare at me, I'll just do this project at home and by myself without your help."

"No, I can help. I beat your scores for a reason."

Damn you, stupid teacher for writing who got what score on the board. Fuck you.

"How about the traits of lying?"

I lazily glance back down at my paper and notice that was a choice I completely glazed over.

"Sure. I don't have a problem with that."

He gets up and heads to the teacher to tell her which one we've chosen. Once he leaves, a girl walks up to me.

"You better not be trying to get in his pants."

I look up at her without a single care. "Trust me, honey. I got no interest."

"Then why is he your partner? Why does he keep looking at you?"

"How am I supposed to know? I rejected his ass flat out and now he's obsessed!"
