Keep Me Company

Taehyun was startled when he saw Beomgyu stopping next to him, the elder glares at the other prying eyes "What are you brats looking at? scarm!!" they hurried away from the corridor like mice chased by a cat. Taehyun shakes his head and goes to move but Beomgyu blocked his path.

"What do you want Choi?" he snarls, if he doesnt move in the next 10 minutes, he'll be late for chemistry. Beomgyu surprisingly backs off, his eyes were on the floor but they slowly drag up to meet Taehyun's, what he said next is so unexpected Taehyun thought he was in a fever dream.

"I wanna apologize, for everything, calling you names and being insensitive and shit"

Taehyun stares him up and down, "Are you drunk?" Beomgyu actually smiled at that “I wish I was" he finds it amusing how Taehyun is looking at him like he lost his marbles. "This is one weird prank but I really gotta go-"

"I'm not joking" the slightly taller blond male stares at Taehyun with intensity. "I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have said or did what I did. I am truly sorry for that" no matter how many times he said it, Taehyun till finds it hard to believe any of this is true and why so sudden?

Is this Beomgyu's clone? A very dedicated prank? Did Beomgyu took something he wasn't-Oh

Oh

Taehyun breathes in and out, smiling bitterly at Beomgyu. Of course, why and what else would it be? "Did Yeonjun sunbae put you up to this?" He found his confirmation when Beomgyu's eyes went big with shock. "How did you-"

"He likes Hueningkai right? Wants to ask him out. But he thinks he needs to be on good terms with me cuz i'm someone of importance to Hyuka. Sure, he didn't do anything to me, but you bully me on a daily basis, and you're his BFF. You're just doing this so Yeonjun sunbae could secure his chance with Hueningkai"

Beomgyu stared at him dumbstruck and speechless beyond words, "That's-"

"Don't bother, just tell him he doesn't need to worry about that because I'm not anything to Hyuka, I'm just a curse he is stuck with. We're friends, well kinda I guess, because we've known each other since childhood. He saw me lose everything in life and he knew if he left me, I'll truly have nothing left to live for." why was he spilling his feelings to Beomgyu of all people? He doesn't know but now that he started, he can't stop.

"He sticks around out of pity and also because Hyuka is just that nice, he's a good kid, he puts up with me for years. But by all means, my validation means nothing to him, Yeonjun does not need my approval, Hyuka will still date him regardless" He stops to take a deep breath, Beomgyu keeps his silence. That stupid look of actual pity forming on his face.

"But..." Taehyun's voice drop to a new low "If..IF he ever, by ever I mean EVER hurts Hueningkai in any possible way…." Beomgyu finds himself backing up to a wall as the smaller boy marches up. He was starting to look a tad too scary with that death glare.

Those big round orbs stare into his own with promise.

"Nobody will ever find the body…..you hear me? I may be nothing more than a curse to him, but he is everything to me" He pulls away and turns his heels, sprinting for his class as if he did not just threatened murder upon another student.

Beomgyu drops to the floor, his heart beating wildly. From the other corner, Hueningkai and Yeonjun stepped out, the youngest especially looked visibly shaken. His eyes trail to where Taehyun had left "Hyunnie….I didn't know you feel this way….."
