My Senior Lover - KTH ff

Chapter 3 - Cigarettes

'I'm here again'
Gazing the entrance into the beige painted building. Students were entering, ready to endure the stress of the approaching maturity.

'Just keep breathing. If you don't drop dead, everything will be fine'
'Am I overreacting?'
'Should I try to make it right again?'
'Am I judging him too early?'
'He could be having mental issues.'
'No, not every problem is a mental matter. Maybe he's just poorly raised.'
'And I'm over-thinking way too much.'
'Remember the plan: IGNORE HIM.' 'Y/N!' You snapped out it. Was there a second person in your head?

You stopped walking to wait for your buddies.
"It's shit. They're stealing your money."
"Come on! It says if you wear their cologne, there's 21% of attraction females."
"How do they know that?"
"SCIENCE! Have you heard of it? S-I-E-N-S-E!"
"First of all, that's not how you spell 'Science'. Second of all, I don't care what you buy. I'm just warning you because that's 799$ for a cologne with 21% of 'seducing females'. You do you, man."

A chuckle left your lips at the ridiculous conversation between Kai and Mark. Yeri spotted your silhouette and practically threw herself over you. "Did you hear that?" She asked.
"Of course." You looked at each other, before cracking up of laughter.
"Let's just go." Kai rolled his eyes, visibly annoyed at Mark's stupidity.
"Thinking about it again, I believe it's actually 899$" Mark remembered, still unbothered by the prize.

You and Yeri were walking alone to class. The guys had different lessons to attend.
"I need to pee. You can go-ahead." Yeri nodded as a response, as you left for the bathroom.

After washing your hands properly, you left the bathroom.
Walking to class, your nose was quick to pick up a terrible smell.

'Something's wrong.'

Trusting your intuitions, you followed it.
After a few turns, you found the smells creator.

Taehyung leaning against the row of lockers with one foot
He instantly spotted you and started getting closer.
You felt nauseous. The smell was coming closer.
It didn't take long to spotting the object in his left hand.

A cigarette...

"Wanna try?" A half-dead smirk formed on his lips. The smell of cigarette smoke had always been something you had a deep hatred for.
Years prior, you lost a close aunt to lung cancer.
Since then, you promised to stay as far away from that shit as humanly possible.
"No." The answer was clear and direct. "Okay then." He mumbled, taking an extra puff of the cigarette.
"You know, next you don't need to push me. You can say something instead."
You rolled your eyes at his stupid comment.
"Now is the perfect time to apologize for pushing AND breaking my nose."
He added.
You would've, but seeing what he did to MinJi made happy for breaking his nose.
"If you wanna keep ignoring me. I should warn you: I really don't care you're a girl. I would still hit you."

'Why haven't you been thrown out?'

He dropped the cigarette, stepping on it.
"I need to go to class." You looked at him and left.

Taehyung POV.

I looked at her form becoming smaller and smaller.
I let out an exhausted sigh.
"What am I doing here anyway?"
I never did something productive here. The high school's just a way to stop thinking about everything else going on.

Life's just a massive disappointment, filled with regret, and failure.
I hate it.
Why is it so hard for people to be loving and selfless?

"So I told her, I need a break and then she just breaks down. We only dated for 2 months." Yoongi just sat on the bench, listening to Jungkook's complaints.

Tae still couldn't stop thinking about her.

Y/N was her name.
She was just so natural. She was so easy to talk to.
So simplistic and down to earth, not having any unrealistic expectations of me.

It was like a switch, that had been turned on, changing Taehyung's view on her. It was completely out of the blue.

Since finding out about my personal problems, the principal was doing everything to make me go to a psychologist.
I didn't need nor want it, I just wish I could ignore it.

'Maybe I can find Y/N somewhere and see what she's up to...'
