Fallen Angel | Park Jimin Vampire fanfiction |

XVI. Job

What?
...
Cute-whaaat~?
I-what?!

"...we broke her"... silence.

"Yes, yes we did."

Wanting to get your attention again, and also get even a bigger laugh from this, Taehyung took another nugget from your tray and was about to forcefully shove it in your mouth. But you grabbed his hand, still keeping your eyes on one dot, the table.

"Don't. Even. Think. About it." - silence, again...

"Wooow tiger, calm your tatas."

"Tae!"

"Whaat~?!"

Namjoon shook his head in disappointment but still couldn't contain the slight snicker that escaped him.

"You good there Y/n?" Jungkook asked, his head suddenly right in front of you, looking at you with his eyebrows slightly lifted. The proximity of his face got you to fully come back from your shocked and flustered state.

"Yeah!" - 'that came out higher than I thought it would' - "I mean, yeah, of course, why wouldn't I be?" - You chucked at the end, eyes a little wider than normal and that didn't slip past Jungkook.

"Oh yeah? Then why are you excessively blushing right now? I'm slightly hurt you know. I called you princess once and you just-"

Your flustered state was gone in an instant, face completely serious now. You glared at Jungkook, your glare strong enough to make him fall serious as well, understanding the unspoken message. 'You promised to forget and to not bring it up again...'

The slightly tense atmosphere lingered through the beginning of the lunch break, everyone a bit tense after that but still making small talk to try and lighten up the mood.

After some time, the boys had swung into a full-blown conversation. So you just listened, sometimes nodding, humming, or just reacting in general since you didn't understand most of the things they were talking about.

You took out your phone halfway through their conversation because it was getting more and more confusing as their topic went on. You browsed through job listings that you could check out. Not finding anything, you quietly sighed, resting your chin on your hand that was propped up on the table.

"You're one of the super clumsy ones then, huh?"

"What?" You slowly took your eyes off your phone and looked at Taehyung.

"Your screen? How can you see through that? I can't say I take great care of my phone but damn that is bad."

"Yeah, I know. I don't even know how it happened tho. I just woke up this morning and there it was - completely and utterly shattered. Good thing it still works tho!"

No one noticed one of the other boys slightly stiffening, trying not to get noticed as he scanned everyone at the table to see if anyone was looking at him.

"Doubt it's gonna last for long tho" - Namjoon piped in - "The thing looks like it's barely holding up."

"Unfortunately..." - you said, shutting it off and putting it back into your back pocket. - "I thought maybe I knocked it off while sleeping, since I found it on the ground, but a small fall like that shouldn't have been able to do so much damage."

"It was probably that," - said Taehyung - "but I must say, if it was, then damn do you have some power in those tiny fists of yours."

The whole table erupted in laughter.

You were getting ready to go home after school, putting some of your unnecessary books and papers back into your locker when someone spoke up from behind you.
