An improbable Love Story || kth

Nothing but trouble

"Who pissed in your fruit loops?", Evie asked me the next morning as I trudged around the dorm before class.

"Oh I don't know, maybe some people that abandoned me at the party yesterday?", I glared at her and grabbed my bag to leave.

"Hey, I did tell you I went to the party cause of Micheal, Char", she defended herself while hurrying out after me, "Of course I was gonna go with him at some point."

"Yeah, well then Jimin also got booty-called and Taehyung's weird girlfriend showed up and then I was all alone", I complained as we headed to the lecture halls.

"Taehyung has a girlfriend?", she furrowed her brow at me.

"I don't even know", I said exasperatedly, throwing my hands into the air, "That Lily girl sure seems to be around him often enough."

"Hmm", Evie seemed bothered by that, "I thought he was gonna ask you out."

"What? Ew, Evie, no", I shook my head, "Why would you think that?"

"What do you mean ew?", she shot back, "Have you seen the dude? He's a walking god. His face? Straight outta a fucking fairy tale."

I waved her off, knowing she was right, but still annoyed, "He threw tequila in my face."

"So?", she shrugged, "Little accident. Besides, maybe he did it cause he likes you."

"Evie, respectively, shut up", I increased my walking pace so she would have to jog to catch up.

"Oh c'mon, Char", she hurried along with a mischievous grin, "Maybe you like him, too?"

"Okay, first of all, no", I stopped to look her in the eyes, "And second of all, where is this coming from?"

"Mmmh, I don't know", she shrugged dramatically and her tone was teasing, "Maybe from that little note you're keeping in your bedside table drawer?"

"What note?", I was confused.

"What was it again?", she playfully tapped her chin, "Thank you sooooo much for lending this to me! And a little drawing of a heart next to it!"

My jaw dropped. She was quoting the note Taehyung had stuck into my sweatshirt pocket when he returned it to me.

"You went through my bedside table drawer?!", was my first reaction.

"Relax, I was only looking for that pink lipstick you have", she waved me off, "The real question is: Why are you keeping that note in there?"

"W-well that's just because... You know...", I was at a loss of words for some reason, "I just keep random stuff in there!"

"Sure, whatever", Evie nodded with a smirk I wish I could wipe off her face and continued walking, "While I'm fucking Micheal, I guess you'll just stay dry with all of your little feelings bottled up."

"Evie!", I yelled as I followed, "We're just friends and you're a fucking idiot!"

For the rest of the day I was in a bad mood. Actually, I was in a bad mood the moment I woke up that morning.

And somehow seeing Taehyung again in my art history class made my mood even worse.

Of course he was grinning like an idiot, as per usual, and decided to sit down right next to me in the lecture hall.

"Hello, Charlotte", he greeted me in his adorably stupid way of his.

"You know, no one else calls me Charlotte", I merely grunted back, not even sparing him a glance.
