chapter 23

taehyung felt a heavy weight lifted off his chest when he finished off the last test for the day.

he stretched a little, feeling like his ass had just gone numb on his back from sitting so long.

he fished back his materials back inside his bag when he noticed the others have already passed their exam sheets.

he wasn’t nervous when he took the exam, he knew he didn't do bad. he knows didn't do bad in any tests that he had in his life as a student, he was probably programmed since he was a child to not fail or else he would face the wrath of his dad.

he hummed on his way to pass his exam sheets, the smile plastered on his face seemed like a tattoo now.

when the teacher finally dismissed them, he hastily ran his way out of the area, ready to announce to jungkook that he did well but other students were also piling up to go outside.

he just couldn't wait to see jungkook.

he smiled and bit his lip as he thought about the bold action he did a while ago— he had just kissed jungkook’s cheeks.

he shook his head, feeling a little giddy.

but once he went outside, his eyes searched for jungkook but was met with the elder talking to a girl. no, scratch that, more like flirting.

he saw jungkook smiled at the unknown girl he was talking to.

the happiness he felt a while ago had just dispersed out of his heart.

he likes jungkook.. but he doesn't even know if the other does too.

he stood frozen on his spot, thinking if he should approach jungkook or just walk away without the other.

he decided to choose the latter, he was about to walk away when he felt a body beside of him, he glanced up to see who it was.

isn’t this—

“hi.” the guy greeted as he held his hand out for taehyung, “i’m lucas, jimin’s roommate.”

what is he doing? i know that he knows that i know him.. from the amount of times i’ve been to jimin’s room.

“you know, it’s rude to leave someone’s hand hanging in the air especially when they're trying to be polite.” lucas’ voice snapped him from his thoughts.

“o-oh..” he pursed his lips and shook his head, “sorry, just confused i guess.” he chuckled, accepting lucas’ hand, the other’s grip was warm and friendly.

“i’m tae—”

“i know you're kim taehyung, the infamous son of the prime minister of south korea,” he interjected with silly gestures, “and you dated my roommate too! who just disappeared without any words.” lucas humored, snorting after the last sentence.

yeah, your roommates an evil guy who’s part of a group that's trying to kill my dad. taehyung thought.

“what are you majoring in?” lucas queried as he watched taehyung hesitated before answering, “journalism, psychology and english.”

“wow, triple major huh?” lucas’ eyes widened in amazement, because who takes triple major nowadays? apparently, kim taehyung.

taehyung nodded eagerly, “hmm.. how about you?”

seems like lucas is a good guy..

lucas scratched his nape shyly before mumbling, “i major in architecture just like jimin.”
