unedited. "thus..."
"with a kiss,"
"i die."
everything felt so real.
even though it was just a practice, everything was reenacted so perfectly. this was the scene where romeo died, thinking that juliet had died as well.
taehyung didn't exactly knew the story but he was getting himself into the scene even though he never thought he would.
"that was a good one!"
the bell rang and seokjin was now wrapping things up at the hall.
"wow, romeo, huh?" taehyung stepped closer.
"that, what you just saw, was just practice."
"by the way, doesn't romeo kiss juliet in the movie?"
"yeah,"
"well..." taehyung trailed off. "aren't you?"
"more like..." seokjin thought of a better way of explaining, "almost a kiss." he snapped his fingers.
they realised that it was now assembly. they quietly walked to the last row and stood next to each other.
"you may now sit." the teacher finally said.
"seokjin," taehyung whispered, placing a sticky note on seokjin's lap.
recess together?
-
"are we actually allowed to have recess here?" seokjin asked.
it was only the both of them. they sat on the floor of the empty gymnasium, where every words they say would echo throughout the room.
"i usually eat alone," taehyung chuckled, before biting on his bun.
"what? you seem like you're one of the popular kids, but you like being alone?"
"i'm not popular, people just like handball."
"because of you." seokjin smiled.
"please, don't." taehyung laughed out of embarrassment.
"you know..." seokjin hesitated. "you know what, it's fine."
"you brought it up, you can't leave me hanging!" taehyung was now curious.
"you called me seokjin, for the first time just now,"
"what? no way! what else am i supposed to call other than your name?"
"it was always you screaming drama freak! " he laughed bitterly.
"well, now that i think of it—"
the door creaked open.
"shit," seokjin whispered, immediately standing up, holding on to his dear lunch.
-
"you know, these kind of situations are romantic in movies, but i'm dying in here," seokjin whispered.
the teacher was still at the gym as they hid in the props store, where it had only so little space, that the boys were practically squeezed against each other.
"you know if i come out with a boner, do not say anything," taehyung warned. "and stop squirming around, will you?"
"i'm suffocating in here shut up!" he shouted, yet it was still a whisper. "plus, i dropped my bun, i need to find it."
"who cares about the bun? stop moving!"
"stop talking, you're gonna get us caught,"
"take you own words, drama freak."
"okay, teacher's gone, fuck off."
-
"taehyung, seokjin, have you started on your assignment?"
the boys could only look at each other, as they thought of an excuse. "actually, mrs. han, uhm... that is a surprise,"
"yeah," taehyung kept up. "we actually have everything almost done and it's so good,"
"it's way more exciting to keep it as a surprise,"
"yeah, it's that good, mrs. han,"
"uhm, right," the teacher simply adjusted her glasses. "i look forward to this uh, surprise you have."
"guaranteed, mrs. han,"
"good luck," she finally walked away.
"taehyung," seokjin called.
"yes?"
"what do we do?"
"uh, i don't know, go to amusement park or something?"
"that's taken by soobin's team,"
"oh well, we're screwed."
"actually, don't we need like some materials or whatever to do the project?" taehyung asked.
"uh, no?"
"great, we have a mall near our school, let's go after school."
