MY EYES ADORE YOU | TAEGYU

1.

   ── "baby, for your own good, try and sleep earlier tonight," beomgyu tells me as he approaches me from behind. i nod with acknowledgment as to understand his concerns.

"trust me, gyu. if i could, i would," i say as i open the door for him to enter the classroom. i follow behind with a nasty look on my face as i eye my rival: kim taehyung. aka, the smartest and most handsome fuckboy in college.

don't get me wrong, i don't hate him. i just don't like the fact that he can pick up any girl and swallow her without regrets. i've been yarning for a girlfriend for so long, it's actually sad. beomgyu and i made a deal that whoever gets a girlfriend before college ends, has to do whatever the other person wants. and it can be anything: there are no limits.

"hey," beomgyu quietly waves at the girl in the back with her headphone in her ears. she was cute, but not my type.

in a girl, I don't look for cute and adorable. i want confidence and great personality honestly. i bow at her when she looks at me before shifting my feet towards the row on the other side of the classroom with beomfyu on my left. i take a seat and in my peripheral vision, i see the girl above me gawk at beomgyu.

"wrench," i mutter. i bring my eyes back to the podium standing in the middle of the classroom, human-less.

"tae, after school, want to get some froyo?" beomgyu asks me after the teacher walked up to the podium with his briefcase. i nod without looking at him as my eye follows the teacher's every movement.

"students. as you know, tomorrow is the welcoming of the freshman. and i know most of you want to skip class just to hang out and get free food." the teacher says with a moderated voice, he gives the classroom a scan before clearing his throat to continue.  "i will let you, but it comes with a cost. let's make a deal. you guys can go to the welcoming and have fun but in return. you have to write a four paged essay on the topic we'll learn today."

the room fills with groans and irritated faces. i look around the room and all I saw was disappointment. i don't really care about essays. i'm a pro, so i don't need to worry. beomgyu is the one i'm worried about.

"now, to start with today's lesson." the teacher begins to write the name of the topic on the whiteboard while the students around me took out their pencils and notebooks, ready to write.

"gyu, we ditching class tomorrow?" i whisper to beom who's writing done he topic. his eyes were glued to the board, it was weird seeing him all concentrated and stuff; it's not like him.

"i don't think so. you know i'm not good with essays," beom whispers back as both of our eyes are now glued to the front because do the teachers killer stare.

i twist my lips I beomgyu's the direction and continue to whisper. "you're in luck. i'll help you with the essay, got it?" without another word, beomgyu smiles and agrees with me.

for the rest of the class, the two of us sat in silence as we listened to the lesson. afterward, we met up with the rest of our friends at the cafeteria and coffee shop close by.

"bruh, i hate computer science sooo much!" hueningkai begins to complain as he sits down with his ice americano in one hand and in the other, a bag of peanut squids.

i take a seat next to him, and beomgyu takes a seat next to me. "we just had accounting. give us a break," i manage to say while my mouth chews in a piece of bread. i use my hand to signal me and gyu.

"guys, did you hear about tomorrow?" yeonjun takes a seat across from me with his ice americano and sub. "i can't wait to scare the freshman's,"

"hyung, we aren't in high school anymore," i say with an eye roll before grabbing my cup and drinking out of it.

"so? i still going to bully the newbies..." yeonjun' smile turns into a smirk.

"babe, you know you shouldn't," soobin tells is boyfriend, yeonjun.

when we first found out those two were dating, i swear i had my jaw hitting my feet. it was so unexpected. yes, they fool around and hug and touch, but we all do that. it doesn't mean we like each other in that way; that's just who we are. although, when beomgyu calls me baby i cringe and tell him to stop, but does he? hell no! he does the exact opposite; he teases me.

"ugh, why must you all tell me what to do?" yeonjun says with defeat in his throat. we all smile and continue eating before our next class.

"so, soobin, you heading to finances?" i struck up a conversation as nobody else was. he looks up from his bag of squids and sighs.

"not today. my mother invited the entire family over for dinner tonight so, i can't go to class," soobin lets out another sigh before shoving his straw into his mouth, sipping some of his drink.

"wow, really? why would your mother do that? doesn't like, your father hates his family?" beomgyu finally speaks up after eating half of his door long sub that he bought at the coffee shop.

"yeah. but you know my mother. she's always trying to reconnect bonds...it's so annoying," soobin closes the subject by shaking his head to the sides.

"hueningkai, we have class in twenty minutes and it's with mr.yoongi. i think we should head to the library and read something useful," beomgyu says as he drags hueingkai with him. the three left sitting at the table wave goodbye at the other two boys walking at a fast pace towards the library.

"well, i should get going," i say as i get up from the chair and throw away the empty wrapper in my hands.

"why is that? don't you have another class today?" yeonjun asks me as i más my way back over to them.

"yeah, but it's not a class I need for my career. i don't need human resources to become a great singer," i say with a chuckle. i push the chair back in its rightful place before leaving. i wave goodbye at the couple before i take my leave.

shit. i forgot to tell beomgyu i won't be in human resources class. i should tell him so he doesn't wait for me after class. we agreed to go get froyo ayer school, but i won't be at school for that.

i firmly take a left turn and walk up the stairs to meet the library on my left-hand side. as i walk in, i'm greeted by the lovely receptionist who's eyes i can't figure out. i bow at her before walking through the passageways of numerous bookshelf's before i heard quite waves of laughter.

"gyu, i'm heading home. call me when you get out so we can get some froyo," is what i meant to say after I saw hueingkai and my best friend having a grand time.

what really came out of my mouth was this.

"am i interrupting?" idiot. i shyly look away from the two as they look at me.

"of course not, baby. what's up?" beomgyu says with my pet name involved. i internally punch him in the face.

"w-well, i'm not going to attend my last class of today so, call me when you get out so we can get some froyo, alright?" i say without remembering kai next to my best friend. unintentionally, i invited an extra person to our hangout.

"wait, you guys are getting froyo?! can i come?" hueingkai asks with his puppy look, the look that beomgyu can't. I repeat, can't resist.

"sure you can, right baby?" beomgyu looks at me with his convincing stare. i simply nod before turning on my heel.

"i'll see you two after school then," that was the last thing i said before i walked out of the building as headed towards my apartment.

I just wanted to hang out with my best friend for once. it's always someone getting in the way of our time. is it too much to ask? whatever. it doesn't seem like he cares anyway.

i shake my thoughts away as i walk to the bus stop and wait for my bus to arrive.
