An improbable Love Story || kth

In the beginning

~~~

I'm just a regular girl really... that Kim Taehyung somehow fell in love with.

How did he fall in love with me?

I don't know.

How did we get to make the most amazing experiences of our lives together?

I have no idea.

How did we end up in this crazy relationship?

Well, that's what I'm here to tell you.

I was sitting on a park bench at our university campus, surrounded by rustling leaves of the large oaks along the stone pathway. The early autumn breeze engulfed me, letting my long brunette hair sway in the direction of the wind. My head was lowered to scroll through my phone, opening up my trusty app Wattpad. I was excited to see that one of my favorite authors just posted a new chapter to their story.

Of course, it was a love story. A classic boy meets girl story. One that pulls at your heartstrings. Those are the kinds I love to read the most.

The young girl sat at the bar in anticipation. She didn't know if he would come today. Despite her uncertainty, she knew she would wait, all her life if she had to, just to see his dark hair and glowing complexion again. To see that beautiful boy that had captured her heart walk through those doors. And sure enough, like in a hazy dream, he floated in....

"Hey, um, can we trade jackets?", an urgent voice called me out of my visual world of reading.

I looked up from my phone to see a young man around my age, standing in front of me, leaning forward slightly to talk to me. I jumped a little when I saw him. He had wavy dark brown hair hanging in his almond-shaped eyes and a big boxy smile painted across his sweet face, lined with pink heart-like lips. The sun reflected off of his golden complexion, his soft eyes twinkling in anticipation. Was he the boy from my book? Why was he standing in front of me?

"It's kind of urgent", he snapped me back to reality once again.

"You want what?", I looked at him confused.

"Your jacket", he pulled his eyebrows together, as if he felt bad for asking, "Please, just for a second. I promise I'll give it right back."

I then realized he was wearing an extremely tacky blue overcoat with golden swirls stretching along the fabric. No wonder I thought he was a book character, he might as well have come from a fairytale with an outfit like that.

"I mean... I guess...", I said slowly as I pulled off my oversized black sweatshirt and handed it to him hesitantly.

"Thank you so much, you're a lifesaver!", he exclaimed, quickly throwing his own coat under the bench and draping mine over his lean figure.

Something in the distance must have caught his attention for his expression changed to worry as he gazed down the stone path.

That's when he pulled the hood on to cover most of his face, simultaneously jumping onto the park bench and lying down to rest his head in my lap.

I sharply inhaled some air, trying to figure out what was going on. What on earth was this odd man slash boy doing? Was he just going to take a nap in my clothes and more importantly on my lap?

I wanted to say something right then and there. He must have sensed it for he placed a finger on my mouth without even turning to look. Now I felt a little upset. Who did he think he was?
