Dark Botany (Mingi x Reader)

14

(Y/n) walked into the lecture hall and the class got quiet.

"Professor, you're back!"

"Yes, I just had something to do yesterday, I'm sorry for worrying you all."

(Y/n) sat down at her desk and smiled.

"Min Fei, is a no-show?"

"I heard she got in trouble with her dad again and he froze all her accounts."

The class snickered and (Y/n) chuckled.

"Okay, enough, not everyone knows the struggle of being filthy rich."

The class went silent, then burst into laughter. (Y/n) shut the door and sat on top of her desk.

"Let's have a free day today. Come on everyone."

The students sat down on the floor and smiled. Mingi sat near the desk.

"So, what do you wanna talk about today?"

Yoo Ren raised his hand and smiled.

"You have a promise ring on your hand, Professor. Who gave it to you?"

(Y/n) fiddled with the ring and smiled.

"I have someone special."

Another student, Gu Sunghee, raised his hand and whispered loudly.

"Professor (Y/n), we know who is it."

"What?"

"We know. It's so obvious, Professor."

The class nodded and (Y/n) turned pink.

"Song Mingi doesn't do a very good job at hiding it either. You should see the way he looks at you when you're teaching."

The class laughed and (Y/n) laughed with them.

"Then it goes without saying, Mingi doesn't actually have a fiancée. This stays between us okay?"

"Yes ma'am!"

Ri Mina raised her hand.

"But what about Min Fei, Professor (Y/n)? Doesn't she like Song Mingi?"

Mingi cleared his throat and smiled.

"Well, she'll just have to get over it, I suppose."

"Good answer, class is dismissed."

"But class doesn't end for another 45 minutes..."

"Did I stutter? Go get some food, sit under the trees, read a book."

"Thank you Professor!"

The students left the class. Jinji and Mingi stayed behind.

"Thank you, for rescuing us yesterday."

"How could we not? We were so afraid..."

Jinji's voice trailed off and she sighed.

"I'm gonna go look for BinBin. I'll see you later, Professor."

(Y/n) nodded and Jinji left.

"I was so afraid..."

"Mingi, hey."

(Y/n) cupped his face gently and he frowned.

"I was so angry, (Y/n). At myself, and Fei, but mostly at myself."

"Mingi, I'm here now. I'm not going to leave you again."

"Do you promise?"

(Y/n) nodded and stroked Mingi's cheeks.
