ISSUES || Taegi

Chapter 12

Yoongi's POV

"So, basically Shakespeare's work is horrid"- I told Taehyung as we were in Literature class and Ms. Kang had asked us to discuss in pairs what we had read of Romeo and Juliet.

"Yeah I mean it's kinda absurd, but think about it this way, he wrote that in the 16th century, and it is a play, a freaking script, of course it's boring, you're supposed to act it"- Taehyung said as a counter-argument to what I had stated.

"Yeah, shut up, two minutes ago you said it was actually great"- I scoffed kind of angrily, I knew I was supposed to be nice to Taehyung, but some things about him, like the fact that he just couldn't make his mind up and kept changing points of view, just annoyed me a lot. 

"Right..."- Taehyung replied and I could notice the pain in his voice and expression, I knew I had hurt his feelings, but I couldn't apologize or take it back, not because I didn't want to, but because I simply couldn't.

Just as the conversation died between us, Ms. Kang told us time was up and started talking about Shakespeare's work in her own terms once again. Just when I was about to fall asleep, someone knocked on the door and peaked his head through the classroom, and to my surprise, it was none other than the cute boy I had met yesterday, Jimin.

"Uh, hey Ms., sorry for interrupting your class, I was just wondering if you could let me speak with Taehyung for a second?"- Jimin said in a nervous tone as he looked at Ms. Kang, then at Taehyung, and then back at the teacher.

"Oh, sure, just don't take long, okay?"- Ms. Kang said as she smiled to the dark haired boy and signaled Taehyung to stand up and approach the door. 

"Don't worry, I swear it won't be long"- Jimin answered smiling and winking back as he lead Taehyung outside. Gosh, he was just so nice and attractive.

After the two boys left, Ms. Kang continued with her explanation, but I wasn't paying attention, all I could think about was Jimin, how he knew my seat partner, and about what they could be talking about. My mind kept on thinking until the door burst open revealing Taehyung who seemed ashamed for opening the door so harshly, he quickly apologized and rushed to his seat as he kept his head down.

"Hey, what did Jimin tell you?"-  I said getting closer to my seat partner and almost whispering to him.

"He was just asking me if he could start doing some stuff on a Biology project we are doing together, he has a free period right now so he thought he could start it up"- Taehyung said quickly and low, pretending to still be paying attention to the teacher.

"Oh...Do you know him?"- I asked, still curious about how he knew Jimin.

"We just take biology together, I don't know much about him, he seems nice though...How do you know him?"- Taehyung asked, lowering his voice more as he said that last part.

"Min! Kim! Stop talking or I'll take you both out"- Ms. Kang yelled before I could answer. Taehyung mumbled a sorry as he blushed madly and lowered his head, such a coward. I just nodded and continued looking out the window.

The rest of the class went on with Taehyung scribbling uncontrollably in his notebook, probably out of anxiousness, and with me not paying attention as I was once again too busy thinking about Jimin. That was the last class of the day and so I got ready to leave, I thought about asking Taehyung for Jimin's number, I knew it was a bit overboard but I had fallen for him, I don't know how but I had, yet I decided it was better to ask him through text. I exited the classroom alongside Namjoon, and as we walked to my car I could distantly hear him talking about how I still wasn't behaving all that well with Taehyung, but I wasn't really paying attention, and I didn't really care.

***********

<<Hey>>- I texted Taehyung feeling nervous for what I was about to do.

<<Uh...Hey Yoongi Hyung, what's up?>>

<<Okay...This is kind of embarrassing, and it's probably the weirdest thing I'll ever ask you>>

<<Okay...? What are you talking about?>>

<<You know, today you asked me if I knew Jimin and stuff, and the truth is I'm kinda into him...So, I was wondering if you could pass me his phone number?>>- I texted still feeling pretty nervous about his response. I knew it wasn't fair that I treated him like shit constantly and now I was here asking him for a favor, but I just couldn't help it.

<<Oh...Jimin's number, right, let me search for it>>

<<Thank you so much Tae, really>>

<<Here *Park Jimin's contact number*, and good luck with that>>

<<Thank youuuu, you are seriously a life savior>>

<<Hahaha, it's not that big of a deal, now go get him>>

<<Are you not going to ask how the hell am I into boys?>>- I texted trying to keep a conversation up as I felt bad for just using him.

<<Well, It's none of my business if you are not straight, heck, I'm not even straight myself>>

<<Wait...You're not straight?>>- I asked feeling shocked at Taehyung's confession, I mean I had kind of guessed it, but I was still surprised.

<<Nope, I'm Bi>>

<<Oh so you're not gay, I thought you were gay, I'm also Bi>>

<<Well, if it isn't another thing we have in common hahaha>>

<<Yeah...hahaha>>- I texted finally with a strange small smile on my face.

After that, the conversation died...But Taehyung seemed like a completely different person through text, he was very chill and laid back, almost as the first version of him I knew, and he even was kind enough to pass me Jimin's number when I had been such a dick to him. Maybe Namjoon was right, maybe I should give him a chance, maybe behind all that obnoxiousness was a cool and kind guy, maybe. Setting my thoughts about Taehyung aside, I took a deep breath and decided to text Jimin, I knew it was a bit random, but I just had to see for myself how far I could get.

<<Hey Jimin! Umm, you might be a bit confused, I'm Min Yoongi, the guy from yesterday. I just wanted to say thank you once again for taking me to school>>- I said trying not to sound all that creepy, but shit I definitely did sound very creepy, 'oh hey you hit me with your bike yesterday, I think I like you, want to talk?' Stupid.

<<Oh...Yoongi Hyung, it's you, I can't believe it, I was actually about to ask Tae for your number as I saw you two sitting together in literature class>>

And with that simple text, I could feel a bright and big smile spreading across my face, something was about to get better for me.
