Second row. Third seat from the end. First class of the day. 9:00AM. Was it weird that Taehyung kind of remembered your schedule and exact seat every morning class? He’d always watch you walk in, nervously glancing away as you made quick eye contact with him before sitting down and sighing. By the dark circles under your eye and the ballcap on your head, Taehyung guessed you were up late last night. He pouted to himself. It wasn’t fun seeing you like this.

You yawned to yourself once more, resting your chin in the palm of your hand as you felt your eyes grow heavy. It was another night of rigorous studying for your organic chem midterm and you were ready to jump off a building any minute now. Everyone knew orgo was hard and even the university you attended knew that the highest grade on the exams was a “60.” Yet, nothing can be done to make the material easier because the concept was just difficult to understand. Thus, your sleep schedule was entirely gone. What was a sleep schedule anyway? People still had those?

You yawned once again and saw your psych professor walk in, ready to start a new lesson. Taehyung already saw you dozing in and out before he could even begin his lesson. Usually Tae doesn’t take notes because he’s a genius and one of the smartest students in class. Every psych test, he aces. He even is on top of his math and science classes too. Everyone knew him and how much of an intelligent being he is, and yet he couldn’t get you to notice him at all - even if he is sitting a row behind you. So he took this chance to take down the notes of this lecture since he knew you’d always wrote down the notes on the slide shows. And then afterwards, maybe he could buy you a cup of coffee or something. That was the plan he intended on.

Halfway through the class, you were passed out, head buried within your notebook. Taehyung couldn’t help but chuckle as you were just gone. Whatever you did last night must’ve stressed and worn you out. Your professor didn’t seem to mind that you were asleep and in fact, there were a couple of those that were also asleep. At least you showed up to class rather than skip. And plus, he knew that there was some correlation between the students that were asleep.

“Um, why are most of my students taking organic chem this semester asleep? Was there a major test or something?” he spoke up.

You immediately shot up and looked at him, feeling as dead as ever.

“Y-Yeah,” you replied, rubbing your eye, “there’s an exam later today.”

Your teacher gave a nod, wished you all luck, and presumed with his lesson. You felt your eyes grow tired and fell back asleep. Taehyung stared at you, now understanding that it was that difficult chemistry class that was keeping you from being awake. Taehyung rested his chin in the palm of his hand, wishing he would’ve asked if he could study with you. After all, he is in your chemistry class. You just haven’t noticed him because he’s towards the back, zoning out the lesson because he’s that much of a genius and understands it all.

To be quite honest, you knew Taehyung existed and you knew how smart he was. You were just too timid and shy to say anything or even ask for help. Everyone knew how smart he was and whisked him away for help before you could even walk up to him. So most of the time, you utilized the tutoring sessions at your school or searched the web for hours, looking for a decent video to help. It made you feel sad though, because you heard how many people said Taehyung helped explain the material and simple terms and how aside from being the smartest person in the entire world, he was a genuinely nice, sweet guy. No wonder every girl that comes across him fawns over his existence.

You felt a tap on your shoulder and saw that it was your professor. “Class is over, ______. Why don’t you rest some more before taking your chem exam?” he suggested.

“I’d love to, but the exam is next. Also sorry for falling asleep,” you said, packing away your things.

“It’s fine. Good luck!”

You gave a nod and left right away. Taehyung watched you leave and followed after since you both did share the same chemistry class too. As you walked into the lab, you took a deep breath and exhaled, pulling out your water bottle and drinking it before settling down. Once everyone made it, the exam began. You stared at the questions and flipped through it, shocked that you knew most of the answer. But instead of getting too excited, you did each problem slowly and diligently, making sure you didn’t make any small mistakes.

About an hour into the two hour time period you were given, Taehyung was the first one to stand up and turn in his work before leaving. You watched him pass you and stared at him. As he handed the exam in, he turned slightly and made eye contact with you, gave a smile, and left. Your eyes widened as you felt your heart shake in your chest. You quickly went back to your exam and repeatedly told yourself to focus and that you were almost done. Once the exam is over, you can head back to your dorm and sleep until the next day.

You finished five minutes before the period was over and in fact, was the only student left in the room. As you handed in your test, you felt a huge wave of relief wash over you as you left the lab room, the door closing behind you as you learned against it, sighing.

“All done?”

You looked up to see Taehyung get up from the ground as he zipped up his backpack. You furrowed your eyebrows as your hands gripped the straps of your backpack.

“You were waiting…out here the whole time?” you asked.

He nodded. “Yeah. Want to grab some coffee? You look like you need it,” he grinned.

“I’d like that,” you said, walking beside Taehyung before you began to talk to him about the exam.

You were explaining how at first, when you saw the questions, you knew the answers. But when it came to the last two questions, it stumped you really hard. You told him what you did and the methods you took to solve it, then doubted yourself half-way through the problem. You then shrugged your shoulders, and finished the problem the way you started it. If you were positive that you got the other problems right, then getting two wrong was no big deal.

“I think you should avert your mind away from that exam and be happy that you can relax for a bit,” he said, opening the door for you to your campus’s local cafe.

“I know,” you sighed, “I’ll stop worrying about it. Promise.”

He chuckled as he saw you pat your cheeks repeatedly before turning to the menu, eyes reading the different drinks they had to offer. You were torn between something cold and sweet or warm and bitter.

“Have you decided yet?” asked Taehyung as he stood beside you. You noticed how close he was and tensed up a bit.

“I-I think I’ll just settle on the honey mint tea,” you said. Taehyung nodded and told the barista your orders. Before you could interject and pay for your own drink, Taehyung already swiped his card and was then handed the receipt.

“My treat,” he said, “you could barely keep awake in psychology.”

You both found a table near the window and sat down. Taehyung dug into his bag and gave you a few sheets of paper.

“What’s this?” you asked, holding the paper in your hands.

“Notes,” he said, “I know how you always take notes in class and…well…”

He was now blushing as you giggled to yourself, thanking him as you placed the papers in your backpack.

“Thanks,” you said. Soon, the barista called Taehyung’s name and he got up, went to get the drinks you both ordered, and placed the white mug in front of you, the steam from the tea relaxing every nerve in your body.

You blew against the hot liquid before taking a small sip.

“Feeling better?” asked Taehyung, chin rested in the palm of his hand as he looked at you.

You blushed slightly as you smiled shyly. “Y-Yeah! Thanks. This is just what I needed after a long week.”

Taehyung then sat up and smiled widely. “Great! So what are your plans for tomorrow?”

~ End ~

You placed the company’s phone propped up on its stand as you adjusted the screen so the angle was straight. You then sat back, started the live stream, and watched the number of viewers increase as well as the many hearts people sent you. You stayed quiet, a shy smile on your lips as you read comments. After a couple hundred of people were awaiting your livestream, you began your introduction.

“Hey guys! It’s ______ and today is the livestream you all have been waiting for! Today, it’ll be a Q&A of my life before being an idol. As you all know, my story of how I became what I am today, isn’t all that special. I was just a normal girl who loved music and k-pop that I just decided to audition. And here I am today,” you said, giggling to yourself in embarrassment. Your members had courageous stories of how they fought for their dreams while you just auditioned and luckily made it. But despite that, you did work as hard as they did and didn’t let a day go by where you weren’t grateful for where you are.

“Okay, I have a bunch of questions saved from my post on Instagram where I asked you all to send me whatever you wanted to know before I became an idol,” you said, showing the camera your phone with the long list of questions.

“Did you ask her a question?” asked Jimin as he shoved Jungkook who was sitting beside him.

BTS was currently watching your livestream since your group and theirs happened to be very good friends. You both collaborated for photo shoots and music and through that, maybe Jungkook developed a small crush on you. Even though he avoided you like the plague the whole time and you thought he didn’t like you, Jungkook was just nervous to say anything. Every time you walked near him or wanted to ask him a question, he’d run away.

“Uh, I asked who was her favorite group,” he said, staring at the screen and giving you little hearts every time the meter filled up.

“But don’t you know the answer to that?” asked Taehyung, leaning towards Jungkook as he saw you answering what type of student you were in school.

“No. Why? Do you know?”

Taehyung nodded and took a sip of tea from his mug. “Yeah. She told us that she was a fan of us at the last photoshoot we had.”

Jungkook’s eyes widened. “What? Really? Why didn’t I hear of this?!”

“Because you ran away every time she came up to us,” teased Yoongi from the kitchen stool, looking away from his laptop.

Jungkook’s cheeks flushed in embarrassment as he pulled the hood from his hoodie over his head. He continued to watch the livestream, waiting for you to talk about how BTS was your favorite group. And maybe you’ll spill out who’s your favorite member.

“Okay next question…what group was your ultimate favorite?” you read. Jungkook’s ears perked up as he pulled his hood down.

“EVERYONE SHUT UP,” he said, increasing the volume on his phone.

“But no one was–”

“I SAID SHHH,” said Jungkook, covering Jimin’s mouth.

“My favorite group was, and actually is, BTS,” you said with a shy smile as you scratched your cheek lightly.

“God she’s so cute,” he muttered to himself.

“I became a fan of them during Boy in Luv and just fell in love with them. But I never really thought that I would be in a position where I had a chance to do photoshoots with them and even collab to make music! It was so hard to hide the fact that I was such a big fan of them. But after talking to them often, they’re really kind-hearted and funny people. I told them that I was a fan before all of this happened,” you explained, gesturing to your current appearance and status,“and they were pretty surprised at how someone like me, as normal as ever, became an idol and close to my favorite group. Most of my motivation and inspiration comes from not only my members, but BTS too. I think we all can learn a thing or two from them.”

Jungkook was now blushing so hard to the point his cheeks were super pink. All of his members made fun of him for being such a fan boy towards you. He couldn’t say anything though. He just thought you were too cute.

“My favorite BTS member?” you asked, biting you lower lip. “Uhh…if I tell you guys, please don’t hurt me.”

You then playfully laughed after the end of your scentence, but was a bit serious. There are some fans out there that are very problematic and will possibly do something if you told the world your bias from BTS.

“My favorite member is…Jungkook,” you said, blushing as you cleared your throat.

“Oh look! She likes you!” pointed out Hoseok. Jungkook placed his hands on his cheeks and patted them.

“Is this a dream? Am I dreaming? Did she really say I am her favorite member?”

“I can punch you to see if you are,” volunteered Yoongi.

“Nah, I’m fine,” spoke Jungkook as his eyes averted back to the screen.

You then kind of just rambled on about why he was your favorite member and what made him your favorite member. You talked about how talented he was and how much of a great dancer he was too. You went on about how during the photoshoots and music you guys did together and how much you admired his cool facade on camera and enjoyed his shy, dorkiness off camera. You even pointed out how he ran away from you every time you tried to talk to him.

“Maybe he has a crush on you,” you read as you laughed.

“Oh no. I highly doubt it,” you said, “he’s like that around my members too.”

“Eh, I mean you comfortably talked with everyone else, but froze up whenever it came to ______,” said Jin, shrugging his shoulders.

“But do you like Jungkook?” typed Jimin on to the Vlive chat. Jungkook’s eyes widened as he tried to grab Jimin’s phone. He already pressed send and saw the question float up under some weird username he created. He saw that you read the question and felt his heart ready to leap out of his chest.

“Yeah, I do like Jungkook. He’s a great guy. What is there to not like about him!” you happily said. Jungkook was now on the floor, gone. Your cuteness and sweet personality has officially killed him and he has lost this battle.

Jimin chuckled to himself and typed another message. “He’s currently on the floor dying, but he likes you too.:)”

You saw the comment float up from the same username, but didn’t say anything. You read it, giggled to yourself, and decided to end the livestream. After saying your thank yous and goodbyes, you ended the livestream and took a deep breath. You then grabbed your phone and texted Jungkook.

You: so…one of your members told me you like me?

Jungkook stared at his phone and saw your name pop up along with a message. His breath hitched in his throat as he shoved the phone to Taehyung.

“Read it. Please.”

Taehyung unlocked his phone and read the message out loud. Jungkook stared at his phone screen before covering his face.

“Goddammit, Jimin. Why?”

“Because I thought she needed to know. And plus, it sounded like she likes you too! Didn’t you hear her go on and on about how great of a person you are?”

Jungkook nodded. “I know…but…”

“But…?” asked Tae.

He shrugged and took the phone from him, sending you a text back.

Jungkook: yeah…I do. I have a…uh…a crush on…you

You stared at the message sent from Jungkook before giggling to yourself. You then typed back.

You: I had a feeling you did. You know how when you’re in elementary school and you’d run away from your crush? Yeah, that’s you except we are not children but Adults™️.

Jungkook laughed at the use of the trademark sign you used, but didn’t reply since he saw another speech bubble appear.

You: but..I like you too. I just didn’t understand why you were so hesitant to speak to me.:(

Jungkook: because I was shy??? I know, me, a shy boy afraid to talk to his crush ;; but I guess I am now :))

You: then maybe we can talk in person? Over a cup of coffee or hot chocolate? I think a cup of hot chocolate sounds waayy better than coffee. Just saying.

Jungkook grinned widely.

Jungkook: I like hot chocolate! When should we meet up?

You: umm…on the weekend? Around 6 in the evening? I’ll double check my schedule and let you know!

Jungkook: same here! But even if I’m busy, I’ll break the rules just to see you.;)

You giggled to yourself, feeling your smile widen from his over-the-top cuteness.

You: then it’s a date! But if you run into some trouble, it’s not my fault. We do not know each other. I take no responsibility for your rebellious behavior. See you soon, Jungkook!^^

Jungkook laughed to himself, finding your sense of humor to be one of your charms that made him fall for you. Before he replied, he went back to read the first sentence and saw the word “date,” causing his heart to melt and his members to make fun of him. He sighed in annoyance, but couldn’t hide the dumb smile on his lips. 

Jungkook: can’t wait :)

~ End ~

Aww haha I'm actually really surprised you like the series because I really thought I was lacking inspiration when writing it. I'm not sure if I want to continue it or not, but I'll attempt to write part 4 sometime soon and see how it goes.:)

Hey! I actually written up to part 5 but wasn't sure if anyone was interested in it. But I'm glad you like it! I'll make sure to post part 2 up soon!^^

I ship you with Jin! Jin may be awkward himself, but I’m sure he’ll be the one to bring that awkwardness out of you. Even if you may be cold at first, Jin seems the type to not hesitate and warm up to you pretty quickly. And once you’re comfortable with him, he’ll fall in love with your sassy sarcastic personality; something that’ll bring a smile to his face everyday. Your stubbornest and laziness may be contradicting to Jin’s neat and tidy personality. He’ll probably drag you off your feet to make you go on a walk with him or run a few errands just so he can spend more time with you.

I ship you with Yoongi. You and him together gives me this really chill, chic, artsy couple that’s into anything for the aesthetic. I can see you and him going on adventures to artsy places in the city, doing candid photoshoots. Or on lazy days, it’ll probably be spent in doors where you’ll convince him to play your favorite game. Also, considering you don’t have a specific taste in music, I can see Yoongi letting you listen to a variety of different songs to get your opinion and so on.

Hi there! Sorry for the very long wait for this, but I ship you with Hoseok. I think with your lovely, bright personality will go well Hoseok’s. I can definitely see you both always laughing and smiling whenever you both are together, have silly moments and also some secret inside joke that you both only get, bringing you both even closer. I think he’ll find it super cute to see you fond over adorable things. Your jealousy might clash a bit with Hoseok, but I see him being the one to tell you that there really isn’t anything to be jealous of; a huge support in your life.

Yep! The link should be under the description bar, but i don’t think it’s updated to the most recent scenarios written. I’ll make sure to do that soon. :)

OMG IM SORRY HERE'S A BOX OF TISSUES- Admin Sun

I’ll be posting the story really soon! I hope you enjoy it.^^
