"taehyung, what the hell are you doing here?" seokjin asked - like it wasn't even a question -demurely. he tried to keep his cool since it was his literal crush sitting right next to him. withal, taehyung new about his 'little secret'. it was only last year when the whole year found out his crush, which led to them knowing that he was gay. how? he was very closeted. thankfully though, one day a wave of courage told him to tell at least one friend. and so he did; jisoo. it wasn't her fault really, just her saying "you're gay?" a little too loudly caught a certain somebody's attention. ever since then, he'd been picked on for his non-straightness. not quite bullying but a day is made sure it doesn't get missed out on.

"oh, y' know, hanging 'round the school till the gang gets here," taehyung said slyly, a miniature smile curving onto one side of his lips.

"that's such a cringy way of saying it, 'gang'," ridiculed seokjin as he was so badly trying to calm down inside.

"that's how jimin prefers to call us," simply said taehyung. yes, jimin. seokjin's old exfriend. not necessarily old but to keep it short, jimin left seokjin and his friends for taehyung's group, in the same year he accidentally came out. which, in all honesty, it isn't the nicest thing to do when you have feelings for someone in a group who literally are the biggest assholes you've ever met and your best friend for - not-so-literal - ever join them.

"i don't care what he prefers, it's still cringy," retorted jin, feeling a little guilty for what he said.

"jimin won't like what you have said."

"i dont care," taehyung faked gasped, covering his mouth with his hands being all extra. seokjin internally rolled his eyes, getting even more drained by the other's fake child-like behaviour. personally, he didn't like the whole aegyo shenanigan. to him, it was fully grown adults acting like toddlers and he despised its whole purpose.  so taehyung practically made his freaking-out diminish.

emphatically, jin recoiled back to his title-filled poster. not really wanting to rewrite what he wrote from the flashcards, jin stood up and escorted himself to the biological section. annoyingly, taehyung followed, assuming he did that out of boredom. striving to find the dna area, seokjin walked faster to indicate that he didn't particularly want to be followed at this moment, or any moment at all. to his dismay, that wish wasn't granted when his rival-not-rival leaned against the shelves alongside him.

fed-up, seokjin paused what he was doing, and faced taehyung, "what are you doing here? better off, why are you bothering me? kim taehyung?"

the blonde locks shifted to just over taehyungs eyelids, his bright blue eyes, or rather contacts seeing as jin could see the brown underlay. i wonder what he looks like with just his natural brown eyes? a blush appeared on his face noticing how close their faces were. taking a step back, jin looked taehyung directly in the eye, waiting for a response and ignoring the pounds in his heart.

"well, i am actually here to ask you something," again, slyly spoke the slightly taller taehyung.

"oh yeah? what is it, to do your homework? give you cheats on a test? if so, no."

"what? since when did i ask you of such?"

"yesterday, taehyung," seokjin remembered a similar-ish event that occurred the day before, taehyung approached him at lunch whilst he was going to the toilets, and quite forcefully ordered him to do his homework because he 'slept' during class.

"whatever," taehyung rolled his eyes, "i want to ask you something."

"spit it out then," urged seokjin, honestly very intrigued in what had to be said.

"will you go out with me?" deadpan. taehyung had such a sedated stare that made seokjin feel a little suffocated. it started to make his breathing just a bit harder to do. his hands became clammy and rubbed them beside his legs but the nervousness wouldn't go away. amok, his eyes scanned at anything but taehyungs eyes.

"um... uhh," seokjin struggled for some simple words to come out of his mouth. although, his view returned to taehyungs face and calmed down a bit.

"i mean, is there a reason not to?" chuckled taehyung, "i'll give you time to think about it, ciao."

and with that he left, leaving seokjin in gay panic mode until the bell rang for tutor.
