TAEHYUNG'S POV

GUM.

A freaking pack of gum for breakfast, how pathetic. I sighed to myself.

"Sir." A voice snapped me out of my thoughts. The man at the cash register looked at me weirdly. Finally getting a hint, I gave him my payment.

"O-Ohh! M-Mianhe." I bit my lip, utterly embarrassed.

"Kid are you okay? You looked pale." The man asked. I can't keep still out of nervousness so my eyes wandered around the store, not being able to look at him in the eye.

Too scared to answer, I just bowed lowly and walked out of the store without looking back. When I made it out I sighed in relief. Ah! I forgot my change! Ugh nevermind.

"Yah! Taehyung ah!" Knowing who it was, my gaze whipped immediately to his direction and smiled warily.

"H-He-Hey Ji-Jiminie~" I grinned. The boy smiled widely, his brown orbs almost eaten by it's sockets for not being visible when he smiles his eye smile.

"Oh what do you have there?" Jimin asked. Before I can come up with an answer, he took the packet of gum and ate one.

"Y-Yah!!! Tha-That's my b-breakfast!" I whined. Jimin's mouth fell open and spitted out MY GUM onto his hand.

"Oh shit! Sorry TaeTae! I didn't know!" Flustered by his mistake, Jimin tried to push the gum my way. I immediately moved back, disgusted.

"Oh yeah sorry. Uhm-- that was dumb." I sighed and told him that it's fine already. Jimin shrugged and ate his chewed up gum. I grimaced at his action. This unsanitary mochi!

As chewed a gum of my own, we continued walking our way to school. I wonder what awaits us for this school year. My heart dropped remembering how drastic last year was for being wedgied and thrown at the trash can by the seniors. If many of you wanted to ask how I dealt with it, I just told my mom that I saw a strayed cat at the trash can and played with it for a while. Surprisingly, my alibi worked.

Ohh! By the way let me introduce myself.

My name is Kim Taehyung. I'm the stuttering nerd in our highschool. This problem is something that I've had since my childhood. I got teased a lot because of it, but I got used to being talked about a lot. Age? Well, I'm already 19 and is officially a senior this year, together with my best friend, Park Jimin.

This shortie right beside me, is captain of the football team; famous unlike me. Our mothers are best friends, so when we were brought unto this world we naturally became friends as we grow up. He is a jock yes. A player... Maybe? No, okay a lot. But when it comes to me the boy has always been protective. I wonder what I would do if I hadn't have him with me, I would have died at a young age. The boy has always been kind that's why the girls, even the boys, love him.

"So... Are you ready?" He asked.

"D-Do I e-even ha-have a choice?" I asked while pouting. Jimin sighed and placed an arm around my shoulders. And I swear to God, no matter how squishy his cheeks are, his biceps are the other way around. What the fudge? I feel like I've been slapped in the back by boulders.
