Jungkook POV

"uh-uh-umm..." Taehyung stutters, baffled from the sight below him. "I'm so--"
Right as he tries to get up, the lights flicker above us.
"What's that?" I say, confused.
"I don't kno--" the lights fully shut off, leaving us in the pitch black classroom.

It doesn't help that there are no windows at all. I shiver, realizing the heat has turned off. My thoughts are jumbled, when I notice that Taehyung is shaking. In my arms.

"U-um... are you okay, Taehyung?"
"Ye-yeah. Are you?"
"I'm good...."
I can feel Taehyung trying to see something. Or at least find his way back up. I felt him slowly push himself off me.

It doesn't work.

I'm scared too.

I pull him back down, into my arms.

"Stay here for a second."

"Huh?" He's shocked, but im not.

"It's cold, and dark. I don't know what's happening."

"Oh... okay...."

I'm not letting this opportunity go. This will never happen again. I take the risk. I slowly pull Taehyung closer to my chest and hug him tightly. He snuggles into me, murmuring something that's too soft for me to hear. I don't know when the lights will go back on, nor do I want to know.

He's, so, warm. I can feel my heart beating. It's definitely noticeable, but I hope Taehyung doesn't notice.

I wish I could confess to him. My "bad boy" image may be ruined if I confess now. Even then, look at us right now.

I nuzzle my face into him, trying to help warm him up too. This moment lasted forever, and I wanted it to last forever.

The lights flicker on once again, restarting the heater too. I un-snuggle Taehyung as he stares blankly at me. I feel myself turning red. His eyes are glistening with the bright lights of the class. I gulp.

I like you. A lot.

"Sorry. About that..." Taehyung speaks up.

"Don't worry! It wasn't too bad..."

"Uh-uh-wh-what?"

"Oh? It's n-nothing." Get your act together, Jungkook!

"Ok.. want to work on the math homework? I didn't get it."

"Ok! We can figure it out together. Here..." I show him my iPad screen. The math notes are up, and I bring out a marker and book to do the homework with.

For the rest of that class, Taehyung and I talked and bonded like we never had before.

It was new, for the both of us.

I wish he knew my feelings for him.
