THE BET

helping hand & the family

"Jeongguk!" Every inch of the hallway were full of Girls, holding a Christmas present for Jeongguk. Jeongguk kept his poker face on, entering the campus with his dark aura, why? Because Taehyung were nowhere to be seen.

As the Girls spotted Jeongguk, the cheers got loud and that irritates Jeongguk. He rolled his eyes, walking bad boy inside. Jeongguk haven't seen Taehyung since he woke up and that was new. Taehyung was usually waking beside him.

Everyone was pushing not until a sound of heels echoed the hallway. "Move." A girl's voice said and that made Jeongguk look who that was, It's Aeca with Nea. The both were wearing a civilian, seemed like they attended party before heading here. Jeongguk crossed his arms.

Behind Jeongguk, Hoseok was there. The others were nowhere to be seen too, did something came up and they disappeared like a ghost? Hoseok crossed his arms, Nea and him met last night, are these two gonna end up together? Nea bet no and Hoseok think they will.

Aeca stopped infront of Jeongguk, crossed arms, her eyebrows raised. "Goodmorning, Captain?" Jeongguk grinned, leaning. Aeca backed off. "Back off." Aeca hissed and pushed Jeongguk lightly. "What do you want?" Jeon asked.

Aeca licked his bottom lip. "Where's Taehyung?" Aeca asked. Jeongguk laughed, "Who are you and why would I tell you?" Jeongguk asked. "You don't want to tell me or you just don't know where he is?" Aeca asked that made Jeongguk looked at her.

"Where is he?" Jeongguk asked, curling up his fist tight. "Who are you and why would I tell you?" Aeca asked, copying what Jeongguk said earlier. As Jeongguk about to lean more closer, Hoseok holded him back. "Taehyung is here.."

Jeongguk calmed down and looked back, meeting Taehyung's eyes who's looking at the both of them. "W-what are you two leaning on?" Taehyung asked, together with Jimin and Yoongi beside him. "I-Is there anything you two doing wrong?" Taehyung added, seeking for answers.

Taehyung looked at the both of them, "Why a-are you here?" Taehyung asked at Nea and Aeca. "Mr. Jeon invited us here." Aeca answered. Taehyung nodded slowly. "Tae.. I-I need to tell you something.." Aeca said, hoping Taehyung will talk to him. "Tell him what?" Jeongguk asked, "It's too private." Aeca answered.

Aeca looked at Taehyung's eyes. "W-we don't need to talk." Taehyung stated and smiled at Aeca. "But—" Taehyung walked away, bumping his shoulders at Aeca. "Look what you've done. How messy, Captain." Jimin said, following Tae.

Jeongguk smirked and licked his lips. "Get out of our sight." Jeongguk stated and bumped his shoulders at Aeca, Aeca got pushed down but Nea supported her. Hoseok's eyes widened and helped Nea and Aeca. "You two okay?" He asked.

"You didn't change, Jung. You're still the same Hoseok." Aeca smiled, smiling through the pain Taehyung just ignored her. That fast. "It's always me, I won't change." Hoseok smiled, and looked at Nea. "Nice to see you again, boss."

Hoseok uttured those words to Nea before leaving. Aeca smiled once again and hissed, holding her left ankle. "Do I need to take you to the clinic?" Nea asked. "I'm fine, Nea. Seemed that Hoseok and you are close." Aeca teased, "I'm already claiming him as mine." Nea said, bordering Hoseok.

Aeca chuckled, "I won't give up seeking Taehyung's attention. I need to tell him something important and private. That Jeongguk is really a fucking arrogant kid." Aeca hissed and holded her left ankle, checking if it was alright but It wasn't. It's not okay. "Anyways, I need to get ready for my date later. Bye Captain!" Nea chuckled and left.

"That girl, she must've thought I didn't know Hoseok and her exchanged numbers last night." Aeca whispered and smiled. She sat down on the bench and looked at her ankle. "How unlucky, I have practice and this happened."
