senior year.

it's now has been officially a year, and taehyung hadn't done shit, to make a move on jeongguk.

so you might be wondering what happened in the last year that jeon jeongguk had transferred to the high school in seoul.

nothing.

absolutely nothing happened during the year he transferred. yeah, taehyung was being an absolute pussy about it, but he always used the "i was busy" excuse on mark all the time, but now it was their last year in high school and he was running out of excuses to use on the latter.

"out of the three classes i have this year, why'd they put me in sex ed! i already know everything — they didn't think to know that by now!" taehyung rants to mark as they walk throughout the hallways of the large school. the pair were wandering down around after welcoming the freshmen and the returning grades to a brand new school year, they were of course dressed in their uniforms for the occasion.

( their cheer uniforms )

"what's so bad about it? you barely do anything in that class anyway, you just show up and get a grade

"what's so bad about it? you barely do anything in that class anyway, you just show up and get a grade." mark responds, whilst sipping on his iced coffee — it's confirmed, gays love ice coffee — but you didn't hear that from me.

"i'll be with the underclassmen, fucking hell even worse — freshmen! i'm going to die in that class." taehyung grumbles and pulls at his silver-dyed locks, as he zigzags through the crowded sea of confused fourteen-year-olds.

"bitch. you're overreacting, there's more than likely going to be some seniors in that class too — you practically know everyone, the fuck you worrying about?" mark says and rolls his eyes, continuing to move past these slow-ass walkers.

"i'm probably going to talk to counselor bang about changing the course, i don't need the credits anyways — i'll probably join some other class with low work time." taehyung continues to complain.

"you're impossible, tae." mark sighs as he pulls down his cheerleading skirt as they walked past some underclassmen, they were staring intensely at his bare thighs, making him feel uncomfortable.

"but you still love me, so i call that a win!" taehyung triumphantly spoke, giggling a bit as he reaches to hold mark's hand.

mark shakes his head and hurriedly drags his best friend since diapers to their classes. they laughed together when seeing the looks of freshmen eyes once laid upon the two beauties.

on the other hand though ...

a bulky built male stalks throughout the hallways, looking for a specific person, he smiles once he lays eyes on the said person with long hair and multiple piercings decorating his earlobes

"jeongguk!" jackson shouts to the male, alerting the latter to look at the slightly shorter male running towards him, "what classes you got?" jackson asks his best friend as he approaches the tall and also built male.

"sex ed, calculus, and workout," he responds nonchalantly, as he closes his locker, looking to jackson who was leaning against the lockers.

"oh~ heard taehyung has sex ed too." jackson cheekily responds, creepily wiggling his eyebrows.

"cut that out," jeongguk hisses and playfully hits the other's arms, "how'd you know that?" he asks, hands wrapping around his backpack straps.

"he posted it on his instagram story, surprised you didn't see it since you've been stalking the pretty boy for over a whole fucking year." jackson responds a little too loudly.

"you wanna say that louder so people can hear you!?" he whispers yells at the idiotic boy, "also, no i wasn't stalking him — just appreciating him from afar." he differentiates his methods ... but let's be real, he was hardcore stalking taehyung for an entire year.

he had always wanted to talk to the pretty boy of the cheerleading team, but he let pride get in the way of talking to his, let's just say crush.

"then you might wanna watch out for the freshmen." jackson chuckles as his statement whilst jeongguk shakes his head, causing his long locks to tussle a bit, "they'll probably take a crack at trying to ask out taehyung."

continuing to converse with the latter, the two were both in their little bubble as they talked about tryouts and homecoming week.

... until jeongguk walks into a person.

"oof!" a voice lets out, whilst landing on his thinly covered bottom, "ow~ this skirt does no justice for me~" he whines and rubs at his throbbing butt.

"o-oh! i'm sorry! i didn't see you there," jeongguk apologizes to the small male until he saw the little incident had drawn a small crowd to surround them and watch, "the fuck you all looking at? get to class you weirdos!" he growls out and certainly frightens the underclassmen.

once the crowd had dispersed back into minding their own business, jeongguk turns his attention back to the petite beauty, "well tell that to my poor butt! oh, it's gonna be red all day~" the boy whines as he continues to sulk on the ground as he's watched by his best friend, who's pretending not to know the latter.

jeongguk grins mischievously, "okay fine, i will," he then pulls taehyung to stand up, causing the boy to be utterly confused about the action. jeongguk suddenly bends down to eye level with taehyung's butt and spoke, "i'm sorry for hurting you — even though your thickness should've sheltered you from the impact."

the words register in taehyung's head, "yah!" he exclaims, scooting away from the football captain, "that's not what i meant!"

"you're the one that said it, jelly. don't say things you don't mean," jeongguk snickers as he sees taehyung's blushing cheeks.

the markson couple were just watching, wondering if the simulation was glitching, they were finally watching their best friends interact with each other after a year of being absolute cowards.

the two simply stare at each other, lost in one another's intensive glares, "you still going to namjoon's start of the year party, love?" jackson interrupts the two lovebirds to ask mark, the latter was too lost in his delicious coffee, "hey!~ pay attention to me~" the football player whines, alerting the cheerleader to look at him in bewilderment.

"really, jackson?" mark responds, "and to answer your question, yes we're going to be there — jin gets bitchy when we don't show up to namjoon's parties."

jeongguk helps taehyung off the ground. the cheerleader begins to dust off his skirt, "what about you, taehyung?" jeongguk asks out of nowhere, catching him by surprise.

he begins to panic as he never really interacted with jeongguk bedsides during school activity meetings, "o-oh, i don't know. i'm probably going to be busy preparing for homecoming week to worry about some party-"

"what preparations? we've been done with those for two weeks already. stop making excuses, bubs, and have fun your senior year." mark says, catching him redhanded.

the statement made jeongguk smile in delight, as he continues to lovingly stare at the shorter male. taehyung groans at mark failing to notice that he didn't want to go to the same party his crush was attending, "fine, i'll go to namjoon's party."

LILI'S NOTES 👩🏼‍💻 !

forgot to say that jeongguk is a soft bub for taehyung, but cocky and arrogant to everyone else, because the little cheerleader can just do things to his poor heart 🥺
