Sooyoung:
She was slightly taken aback the moment that Jungkook asked her out. She had gotten to know him two weeks before the start of the semester because of Jimin. He was very open about his admiration for her—so in a sense this wasn't new to her. What was new was how he was actually able to ask her out. Majority of the time Taehyung would intervene and not even allow him to talk to her. Let alone flirt. Yet there Jungkook was in front of her—flirting.
"What do you say Sooyoung, I mean Joy? My birthday is the first and yours in the third. We should just celebrate it together. Yeah?"
She regretted how the first thing she did was look to Taehyung as if expecting to see him glaring at Jungkook and stopping the plans altogether. Instead, she saw how he was not paying attention and looking out the window. She turned her consideration and saw as Bae Joohyun was walking past. Seconds later—Taehyung ran out. It was odd. The sudden want to cry.
"Taehyung, where are you going?" she heard Hoseok yelling out.
Sooyoung bit her lip before smiling brightly and nodded a yes to Jungkook. He smiled—his nose scrunching up in a cute way. She was positive that he didn't realize her birthday was two weeks away and so their date was technically two weeks away.
"I'd love to Jungkook. Hoseok," she turned to her friend who just blinked in her direction with his happy smile, blinking. "I seem to have plans for my birthday so, don't plan any surprises like you usually do. I have a date with Jungkook."
Sooyoung knew the look Hoseok was giving her. She knew it all too well and no matter how hard she had tried to move on past that time in her life—she hadn't. She was still there. It was still very much part of her. Maybe it had been her pleading eyes but Hoseok said nothing—only shook his head before shrugging and saying a simple: "Sure."
"Oh damn. I have to go Joy. I'm meeting my chemistry partner today. We don't really get along that well but she's smart and I need help. I'm bummed we aren't partnered but at least I'll get a good grade. If I didn't have to go, I'd talk to you more." Jungkook pouted as she gathered his things.
"I understand. Tell her hi for me. I don't know, her but she seems cute."
"Nah, she's a midget and kind of scary."
She waved bye to Jungkook, sighing as he went. He did remind her that she needed to contact Daniel about when they would meet up for their chemistry assignments and labs that they needed to complete outside of class. She leaned over the counter and wiped aimlessly. It hurt—a lot more than she had hoped, it did after all these years.
