The Nerds

83: Library Memories

Jungkook writes briefly on his notebook, moving his gaze from the textbook and back to the sheet of paper full of notes. It's pointless to be this indulge in his studies since he won't last long in this school, but he really got sucked into the world of psychology just by reading the textbook and notes from class.

It is after all his favorite topic.

And the professor just so happens to be a great teacher.

"Wow, you have more notes than me," Niall suddenly gawks, making Jungkook snap his head up from his trance, noticing how the blonde is staring at him with a gentle smile on his face.

Well that is true. Jungkook has at least three pages full of notes, meanwhile Niall only has half a page.

"Oh.... Guess I got carried a away," Jungkook mutters sheepishly, shyly looking down to his notes.

Maybe a little too much to avoid any source of interaction with you, since you won't say anything about yourself at all.

The blonde only continues to stare at him, making him feel slightly uncomfortable from the heavy stare, so he only goes back to taking notes.

Stares don't feel so settling as it did before.

"You know Jungkook," Niall sighs knowingly, slowly leaning across the table, making Jungkook tense up to the close proximity the other is trying to put, "You're pretty smart.... Would you mind if we have study sessions like this all the time?"

Yes I would mind actually.

You aren't saying shit so you are useless, and obviously loyal to fucking Orchids.

Jungkook thickly gulps and leans back to his chair, sending the other a nervous smile, "Uh I'm not sure if we can all the time. I have other things to do as well."

Like recover from my trauma.

Kill some of your friends.

Kill your leader for sure once we find out where the hell he is.

Fix shit with Taehyung as well.

So much to do.

Niall's face suddenly falls, replacing his expression with one of pure frustration but conceals it with a soft smile. He nods slowly and stands up, "Please excuse me, I'm going to go use the bathroom."

Guess he's done playing.

Jungkook slowly nods in return and focused back to his notes as Niall stands up and walks away to find a bathroom in this library. Once again is Jungkook dragged back to taking notes of the brain and the stages of sleep it goes through.

It's actually very interesting how the brain doesn't instantly shut down once you sleep, it's always working, even while dreaming.

The leader was so into his note that he didn't notice at first a visible red dot on his hand. Not until the dot trailed right to the notes on his paper. For a split second Jungkook's whole body froze, slightly panicking that he may be seconds away from actually being shot, but suddenly his phone rings in his pocket. Reluctantly he reaches for it, keeping a hard eye to the red dot on the paper as he takes out his phone and he sees Taehyung's contact name.

Such a wrong fucking time.

"Taehyung?"

"Hi Jungkookie! How's studying going?" Taehyung asks enthusiastically, making Jungkook slightly squirm in his chair as he trails the lazer to the window he's sitting next to and to the building it's coming from, which is right across the library building.
