Alright Hobi, you got this, just don't be a dumba$$

Don't be a dumba$$

Dont be a dumba$$

Jung Hoseok kept his head held low, as he reminded himself this over and over again. Today was the day where he and Yoongi were meeting up for the project, and it was Hoseok's last intention to make it awkward.

Because as of the moment, the two boy's friendship was going nowhere.

And Hoseok obviously wanted to change that, as he's been telling himself that for the last twenty five chapters.

But hey, improvement right?

Interrupting his thoughts, he suddenly felt an anonymous arm latch around his shoulders. Looking up out of shock, his eyes were met with that signature body grin that Hoseok knew and loved; Taehyung.

"Oh, hey Tae Tae!"

"Hey Hobiiiii whatcha thinking about?"

Hoseok nervously fiddled with his thumbs out of embarrassment, but finally gave in with a mumbled response, "Just the project later."

At this unexpected announcement, Taehyung instantly turned to face Hoseok and violently shook his shoulders.

The elder grabbed Taehyung's hands, putting a stop to his dizziness, "Ack, stop that! I'm gonna get vertigo now," Hoseok replied with a pout.

"Awww, you're so cute! And sorry, just wanted to get your attention and tell you NOT TO ACT LIKE AN IDIOT!" Taehyung emphasized the last part.

Hoseok rolled his eyes, "Yeah, that's kinda my goal."

"Good."

Just before the bell rang, the two friends entered the classroom arms wrapped around each other's backs. A smiling Jimin waved them over per usual, initiating small talk before the professor silenced the class.

During the middle of a lecture, Hoseok's eyes kept wondering over towards Chul's direction, no matter how much he resisted the urge.

Hoseok didn't even notice that he was staring at Chul's back, it was simply out of an unconscious routine that he's been doing since the beginning of the year.

Over and over again, eyes trailed back and forth from the teacher to Chul about every second. It was as if there was a magnet Chul had that kept attracting Hoseok's eyes.

Nope, just his weak self control.

Next to him, a glaring Taehyung watched his friend's gaze continuing to find itself back at Chul. The boy wasn't blind to this, and wanted to practically slap Hoseok's face right then and there.

But, since Taehyung was a good friend, he just sided with pinching Hoseok's face instead.

"Ouch!" Hoseok scolded under his breath, hands lightly massaging the place where Taehyung had pinched.

"Eyes ahead," he whispered, a devilish smirk playing on his lips.

Not wanting to debate or let alone get in trouble for bickering during a lecture, Hoseok kept his eyes on the professor or the floor the whole time; with help from Taehyung of course.

"Good luck champ," Jimin encouraged Hoseok with a bright smile as he pat his shoulders.

"Thanks, I'll need it," a tone of nervousness apparent in his voice.

Sensing this, Jimin wrapped his arms around the elder's shoulders, despite both of them being extremely sweaty, "Seriously, you guys are just working on a project. Don't be nervous, and just carry a conversation the whole time."
