What I Want [COMPLETED]

Chapter 4 - Attention!

"Am I serious?!" You shouted to yourself. After you had walked away from the group of boys, your pace slowly sped up the farther and farther you got from the school. Before you knew it, you were sprinting away, it didn't matter where, and you just wanted to be as far away from Taehyung as you could. You saw a big tree on your retreat, and you hid behind it, squatting down and covering your face with your hands. "There is absolutely no way I just told Taehyung that I was willing to help change hi into a different person! What am I nuts?! Oh my God, they all probably think I'm insane!" You let your head roll back a bit, and it rested on the bark of the sturdy tree. "If I wasn't going to get beaten up before, I definitely am now. That was probably so rude to say...I can make him into a better person...tch. Oh my God." You had no idea what to think right now, all you knew was that you could never pull off changing Taehyung even if you wanted to. He was obviously set in his ways, they all were! No backward new girl from out of the country could ever come in and change that...

...Unless You pursed your lips together, thinking really hard about what you had just said to Taehyung.

Deep down inside you, there's a good little Taehyung just desperate to get out. One that actually wants to be a good person. I believe that. I just need to pull it out of you myself, don't I?"

You thought about it again, and you did mean what you said. Though Taehyung looked the part of a tough bad boy and certainly did act like it, when he let his guard down, he just seemed like the average teenage boy, laughing with his friends and overall having a good time. It was just the skipping class, the constant fights, and the bad attitude that put him in such a little bubble. Well, all you had to do was just...encourage him to go to class, right? Right!

"Now that I think about it..." you began uttering to yourself. "I can totally do this! And once I encourage Taehyung, I'm sure the rest of them will follow suit!" You beamed to yourself, pumping your fists in the air in ignorant, yet eager determination. Standing up, you dusted the grass off your skirt and beamed. "I need to go home and make a plan. This isn't going to be easy..." As you headed down the road to your house, you began thinking of different strategies and plans to encourage someone like Taehyung to want to be a good student.

The next morning couldn't come quick enough, and honestly, you were pretty excited to see if you could improve. You had helped new kids adjust at school back home, and some of them came with questionable backgrounds. But with a little bit of kindness and encouragement, for the most part, those students were able to make a fresh new start at your school. This had to be the same thing, right? As you got up, got ready, and did your hair, you heard your brother come knocking on the door.

"Hey!" he called. "Breakfast is almost ready. Hurry up, or I'm going to eat it all!" When he didn't get a reply, he opened the door and poked his head in. There he saw you, standing in front of your mirror, deep in thought. He called your name a few times but to no avail. Then, he groaned, grabbing your coat off the rack on the back of the door and tossing it at you. This immediately startled you, and you turned to your brother with an annoyed look on your face.

"What are you doing in my room?!" You asked.

"You weren't answering me!" He shouted back. "Are you daydreaming about a boyfriend or something?" When he saw your face get hot, he laughed. "Ew, oh my god! You have a boyfriend!?"

"WHAT?! NO! Shut up!" You shouted angrily. Then, you heard it. It was faint, but it was heard. It was your father.

"Boyfriend?" You groaned, grabbing your belongings, you shoved past your brother and downstairs to try and stop your dad from his inevitable heart attack. When you made your way downstairs, you tried oh so desperately to calm down your dad, saying you "didn't have a boyfriend" and "yes I know I cannot date until you're dead, I know." Anxious to get out of the conversation, you grabbed your breakfast, took a sip of coffee, and rushed out to meet Dahyun and Jihyo.
