Taehyung was starting his last year of high school. Again. This was his second time going through senior year. He would've passed but he never raised his hand in class and 'refused' to present his projects. Truth is he couldn't. His mouth shut, he became mute and he couldn't speak. His parents, being as strict as they were, were very mad to hear their oldest son had to repeat a year in school. He really wanted to pass this year and make them proud.

So he woke up and did what he does every morning. Got up and got dressed, did his skincare routine, and ate. He opened the door leaving early so he could be to school on time. Taehyung was your everyday normal person with an everyday normal schedule.

Other then the part where he had selective mutism, a condition that made him go mute in front of people. He could talk just to selective people. Hence the name selectuve mutism. That was also the reason he didn't graduate.

He arrived at school on time going to his home room knowing they'd be getting assigned lockers there this morning. He took a random seat in the back of the classroom. Sure enough a lock sat on top of a sticky note and the combination on it with the locker number on the back.

He grabbed his phone out of his bag digging around for his earbuds before putting them in. He played boys will be bugs by cavetown (Really good song go check it out). He didn't know why he liked the song as much as he did. But he did anyway.

A few minutes later the bell rang and a storm of 17 and 18 year olds made its way into the classroom. Unfortunately, knowing it was time for class, Taehyung took his earbuds out and turned off his phone looking around at his classmates. They all talked amongst themselves sitting with their friends in large groups. A group of 4 girls sat in front of Taehyung and he was reminded of his favorite musical(I don't like the movie) Heathers. One of the girls, the lead Heather of it all, smelled like cheap perfume and Taehyung wanted to choke. He stood up to move away as the late bell rang before running into someone.

"Hey punk anyone ever taught you to watch where your going?" A males voice asked in a threatening tone. Taehyung was shocked and scared. But as per usual he couldn't say anything and walked around the person. He sat in the back corner of the room away from all the other students. He saw the boy he had run into give him a pissed off glare and walk over to the stupid girls from earlier.

"Hiya Rosé how would you like to come over to my place and we can have some special time together?" The boy asked and Taehyung cringed.

"How many times do I have to tell you I'm lesbian?",  the girl who reminded him of Veronica, also known as Rosé said.

" Come on babe we both know that ain't true." The boy said and smirked. The one who reminded him of Heather Mcnamara stepped forward and slapped him.

"Get lost creep." She said smirking.

Taehyung laughed quietly to himself but he knew the boy had heard him when he turned and walked toward him.

"And what are you laughing at?"
