KIM TAEHYUNG

"You're really leaving me alone?" I ask and hear Yoongi laugh.

"Yes, Troubles. I'm sorry," he says and ruffles my hair. I glare at him and cross my arms. But much time I do not have as my last class was about to start. Dutch. Where I sit next to Jeongguk.

"I'll see you Monday again! Quickly go to class, before you're too late," he smiles and I sigh as I nod. We bid goodbye before separating.

Before entering the classroom I take a deep sigh. I step in and see everyone is there except for Hoseok.

Maybe I can sit in his place?

But nope, of course, the teacher tells me we're sitting in the same spot as last week.

I walk passed Namjoon and Jimin, who are both turning a little red as they make eye contact with me. The guy who I still don't know the name of. And then Jeongguk.

We make brief eye contact but I quickly look away again, not wanting to stare into those dark chocolate eyes.

The teacher soon starts to talk, luckily as I didn't want to confront Jeongguk and something tells me he'll start talking to me again. I didn't dare to look his way, feeling a hot feeling in my chest.

I can feel his eyes on me, burning into my skin. I didn't know what to do. My hands started to shake slightly so I quickly hide them underneath the table. My heart started to beat a little faster. I hated this feeling. But what I hated, even more, was the fact I felt a little sad.

"Taehyung," he then spoke quietly. I felt my breath hitch a little as I hummed, still not looking at him.

"I'm really sorry about Monday," he says and I finally look at him. His eyes show genuine regret. I almost fell into them but Yoongi's words swirl through my head and I smile softly.

"It's okay... I shouldn't have said 'yes' in the first place," I say softly, surely a 'player' like him could handle rejection so I didn't feel bad about my words.

This, however, changed when I saw his eyes change, his eyebrows dropping even lower as he gulped and looked away. He looked hurt, why would he be hurt? Is this part of his act or is it genuine?

I look away, doubting everything. As far as I'm concerned, he has constantly been real with me, always being genuine. When he lied about Yoongi I could easily spot it and he even apologized. How could he be such a good actor all of a sudden?

"You regret wanting to go out with me?" he asks and I look his way to see him looking at me with this look on his face. No amusement, no intimidation, no sign of enjoyment.

I don't know what to say. I don't know if I regret it. I kind of do. If I said 'no' I wouldn't be in this situation right now. But I just wished he'd shown up and we had a nice evening. I wish I wouldn't be torn apart by my own feelings right now.

"I am really sorry, Taehyung. I wish I could come. A friend of mine got hurt really badly. I had to take care of him. I never intended to leave you waiting," Jeongguk says softly as I didn't reply. I feel him softly grabbing my shaking hand and felt a wave of comfort hitting me.

I look at him again and see him look at me, now with a desperate look in his eyes. He doesn't seem to be a person to show this kind of vulnerability to get someone for one night. Maybe he indeed just wants to be friends. But why react this way? I don't get it. He doesn't even know me.
