jeongguk sat a respectable distance away from his teacher.
doe eyes wide and awaiting, small hands braced on his knees as he remained seated patiently with his legs beneath him.
he wondered what he was going to say. what correlation this man had with his dream university.
jeongguk had discovered that there was more to his teacher than he'd initially thought. this man was strange, in a good way.
unpredictable.
jeongguk liked it.
"i was just looking at summer courses that the campus holds.." taehyung trailed off, placing a palm on the laptop as his gaze flickered over the dusty, bleak coal in jeongguk's antique fireplace. they were as dark as ever, the younger was sure that he could light the fire with his burning eyes. "and i came across the admissions sector."
ah yes, the admissions. if jeongguk was lucky, he'd get to apply, though he highly doubted that would ever happen in his life.
"i've checked it countless times mr kim, i'm aware." the boy replied quietly, tracing a small finger across the fabric of his trousers.
it was true, jeongguk kept up to date with all of the university open days and what not. he would never miss his chance with anything if he thought he had the capability to achieve something of a standard such as that. he read the student forums and the the newsletters, he checked for recently displayed portraits and work from current students, he could only admire them from behind his screen.
"jeongguk.." why was he so reluctant? taehyung cleared his throat and let his voice dip yet another octave lower. his fingers drummed away on his lap, the smaller could practically hear him thinking. jeongguk wanted to reach out and brush his hair out of his face, he wanted him to look at him, to watch him, to keep his gaze fixated on him. why was he so needy? he had to stop. "i don't know if you'd be interested but.. they have an extended qualification project for the programme."
oh.
he'd heard about those. never really looked into them in detail because, frankly, it didn't concern him in the slightest. to tell the truth, jeongguk was slowly giving up on aiming so brutally high, giving up on aiming for his dream.
"under seventeens can't enter." the teen whispered, disappointment settling in the pit of his stomach. really, he'd tried, he'd tried everything to get in but there was no way, he'd just have to wait.
"i was thinking of submitting a sample of your work." sinful and forbidden, his tongue slid across his plump bottom lip as he turned to capture jeongguk's gaze.
