Vexatious || Ateez J.WY

chapter 1.

it was first day of school in kq high, early in the morning.

a boy with green streak on his hair walked nervously towards a group of guys, holding a box of chocolate in his hands.

he was confident most of the time, but he was also positive in getting rejected. he just wanted it to be over.

the group of guys became closer until he finally stops at his tracks. he cleared his throat to catch their attention and it worked.

great. no turning back now. the male thought.

there were exactly four guys in the bunch. all of them were good looking, popular and hot, but one of them stood out.

"wooyoung." the boy called and handed him the box of sweets. "these are for you."

this earned a couple of teases from the others. "got yourself an admirer, woo." a certain ravenette snorted.

there were already a couple of students looking at their way, and murmuring, "is choi san really that brave?"

the purple haired rolled his eyes as he cocked an eyebrow at the boy confessing.

he stared at san with dead eyes. "haven't it ever crossed your mind that i'm not gay?"

"i know. i just-"

and before he knew it, the chocolates were already at the other side of the hallway. jung wooyoung just smacked them out of his hands.

"then, you should have kept quiet." the lilac coldly spitted out.

when everyone was feeling pity for the dimpled male, a certain girl picked up the box of desserts and made her way through the crowd.

"you've become a real asshole, you know?" she looked at wooyoung's direction. "someone's making an effort to tell you how they feel. you should appreciate them."

this earned a bunch of gasps from other students. everyone was at a state of surprise, including wooyoung.

she can't be here.

he couldn't let his guard down even as the memories resurfaced. he returned his face to a blank one. "why should i? he's the one who wasted my time."

the new girl faced the slightly embarrassed green haired. "wow, i can't believe you bothered with this dickhead. find yourself a real man."

this made san involuntarily laugh. something about her aura was just easy going.

"so you've still got that bratty attitude of yours?" wooyoung barked, quite annoyed that they had to meet again like this. or that they had to meet at all.

she turned to san again, completely ignoring the purple haired's remark. "wanna get out of here?"

"yeah." the boy gave her a faint smile which reflected on her face.

"i'm talking to you, sooyoung." the lilac's voice interrupted, making her roll her eyes.

it's been years since he said her name and hearing it now, with the situation they're in, wasn't flattering.

"newsflash, wooyoung. not everyone's obligated to answer you."

she gestured san to go first as she trailed behind him, not sparing a single glance back.

"whoa, you know that girl?" seonghwa asked, quite intrigued of their interaction.

"it's her." he simply stated, to which his friends replied with a shock face, then a sorry one.
