HE'S THE ONE

Chapter Twenty-Five

this chapter is bad, like so
unbelievably garbage

"class, today i want you to finish your third quarter project that is due by the end of class today. remember that this grade is worth sixty percent of your final grade, and one student will be selected to be able to participate in the seoul art gallery in june and win a grand prize of one hundred thousand dollars."

taehyung was sat in his seat as his thin paintbrush gilded over the canvas, he smiles when the artwork was finally coming together. the project was to create something that inspires you to love yourself and unconditionally aspires you to be a better person.

so of course, he painted his mother.

( A/N: credits to the original artist )

just as he was shadowing some parts of his artwork, their teacher calls out to everyone, making all the students look up from their projects, "i'm sorry to have disturbed you from your work time, but we have a new student that will be joining us for the rest of the remaining school year! come on in, dear."

the silver-haired male looks up from his painting to look at the new student, laying his eyes upon them.  once he saw their face, a loud snapping sound was heard and on his desk laid his paintbrush in half.

of fucking course it had to be her.

"please introduce yourself." the teacher spoke, standing aside to let the girl speak.

"hi, my name is choi jiyeon, please take care of me," she spoke and bows slightly, smiling at the students looking to the front.

"wonderful! now, jiyeon ... you can sit next to nayeon for the remainder of the year," she instructs the girl, who nods in response and goes to sit down, "mkay, everyone can begin their work again."

taehyung tried not to make eye contact, as he didn't want to have to deal with drama so early in the morning, "well, if it isn't the homewrecker." jiyeon spoke loudly, alerting the whole class to look up at what was going on.

the cheerleader sighs, "mingyu, do you hear something?" taehyung asks the tall male sitting next to him, who turns to look at him with the same smug face.

"i don't hear anything," he responds whilst smirking and goes back to painting the rest of his project, not sparing jiyeon a glance.

"who is this? your little boy toy?"

the silver-haired male raises an eyebrow, "i don't think wonwoo would appreciate you calling his boyfriend a boy toy, he won't hesitate to fight a bitch — no matter their gender." taehyung responds, internally smiling when jiyeon started to show signs of irritation.

"if he lays his hands on me, i'll sue him."

"my mom is a whole ass lawyer, you think you're going to get away with it? nah boo, good luck with that." taehyung responds and puts his focus back onto his painting.

"you know one day i'll have jeongguk all to myself-" she starts but taehyung interrupts her, slamming his hands onto the desk, scaring mingyu a bit at the loudness.

"bitch, can you shut the fuck up? for christ's sake you're so fucking annoying and for what?" taehyung retaliates, narrowing his eyes at the girl, "i'm trying to finish my work, if you're so invested in being a bother, look for someone else because i'm too busy to deal with your bullshit."

it was now lunch, taehyung and mark were now sitting at their usual booth. an unusual tense atmosphere surrounded the air as the blond-haired male stares at his best friend silently brooding. taehyung was holding a straight face as he leans his cheek onto the palm of his left hand, angrily pushing around the food that was served in a container.

"damn bitch, the fuck did the food ever do to you?" mark questions, raising an eyebrow at taehyung's behavior.

"jiyeon transferred here." taehyung simply responds, stabbing at his food, eyes holding an abundance of anger, looking up at mark.

"she did?!" mark exclaims as he jumps out from his seat, blushing in embarrassment when his loudness catches the eyes of some people.

taehyung nods his head, "she's in my ap art class."

"throw hands with her." mark said nonchalantly, sipping from his iced coffee.

"i would, but i don't want to end up in jail." taehyung responds, continuing to assault his food but tenses up when he senses a presence behind him but immediately relaxes when the familiar scent of honeysuckle and vanilla reaches his nostrils.

"hey baby," jeongguk spoke as he sits down next to taehyung, pecking his lips, "is there a reason you're fighting with your food?"

"your fiancée transferred here." mark bluntly replies for taehyung, making jeongguk's eyes bulge out.

"what do you mean she transferred here?!" he shouts, causing taehyung to scrunch up at the loudness, "this girl just doesn't know when to give up!"

"don't know, all i know is that i won't hesitate to throw hands with her if she keeps trying me." taehyung grumbles, pouting looking at jeongguk.

a few minutes later they were joined by namjoon, jin, jackson, wonwoo, mingyu, sooyoung, and seulgi. the once tense atmosphere dissolved as soon as the rest of the group joined the table. it was lively as taehyung giggles at jeongguk almost choking jackson for taunting him about still being a virgin.

mark just watches from the sidelines as the two bicker like children, quietly sipping from his iced coffee, definitely enjoying the show, "so ... gguk, i heard that your fiancée transferred here, what are you going to do about it?" wonwoo asks as he bites into a strawberry.

"i'm not stupid, it's a ploy that my dad and her have planned. if he wants to play dirty then i'll play along. i'm sticking to my words no matter what my dad throws at me, i'll always stay by tae's side."

taehyung blushes deeply when he hears those words come out of jeongguk's mouth. the rest of the group start to tease the cheerleader, making gushy noises and hearing jaebeom's complaints of missing his boyfriend ... poor him.

"speaking of jiyeon, i heard something interesting when i was using the bathroom during first period." namjoon butts in as he takes a sip from his bottle of water.

"what is it?!" they all scream in unison

namjoon spits out his water and jumps up at the loudness of the group, pouting as he rubs at his ears, "fucking fuckers, i'm probably half deaf now."

"aight, cool bro ... now tell us what you heard!" seokjin shouts, shaking his boyfriend's arm.

the platinum blond male rolls his eyes at the seokjin's rude behavior, but brushes it off then coughs to regain his composure, "jiyeon, is chunhei's cousin."
