My alarm clock keeps on ringing as I stare on it. I am thinking whether I should go to school early or not? You know what, ever since I met Jungkook. I am attending my class way more earlier than before. I am changing for the better and it was because of him. I know that I said before how I hate my first subject which is Math. 

Like . . . seriously, who loves math? It is Mental Abuse To Humans.

The alarm clock stopped ringing which made me go back to reality. I look at the clock and it's already quarter to eight - my class will start in 40 minutes. Oh no, I don't really know what to do. 

I bit my lip as I tap my fingers at the nightstand. Maybe I should go late now. Yeah, I should. I miss going to school late and arriving when it's already break time. Yes, I should skip Math. But on the other hand, Jungkook will probably scold me later again.

I lay down again at my bed and stare at the ceiling. I don't know but I shouldn't be feeling so nervous today. What Namjoon said to me yesterday got me thinking and made me sleep late but that thought woke me up so early. I don't know what to feel. I know I already moved on and all but I don't think I'm ready to face him after all these time.

Damn this fucking feels. I hate myself for playing other's feelings. I just can't help it but I feel so happy everytime someone cries because of what I did to them. It's like their pain is my happiness. But Jungkook is different, alright? I stopped ever since what happened last time.

I don't want to remember it. I already regretted it. I don't want to feel that 'regret' feeling again.

I just spend my time rolling all over my bed and scrolling through my news feed. For sure in a bit my mom will knock again to my door and shouts at me for being late. It's been awhile since she knocks at my door to wake me up. 

Speaking of my mom, she doesn't have any idea  who's Jungkook. I still have no plans to introduce him to my mom nor to my dad. I am still waiting for the right time to introduce him to my parents. I don't need to hurry things up.

As if on cue, I can hear footsteps towards my door.

"TAEHYUNG, YOU YOUNG MAN! WAKE UP! YOU'RE BACK AT BEING LATE AGAIN!" My mom shouts and knocks at my door continuously.

I laugh and shook my head, what a crazy mom I got.

"YES MOM, I'M AWAKE! CALM DOWN!" I shouts back and stand up.

"HOW CAN I CALM DOWN IF YOU'RE HALF AN HOUR LATE?! DOUBLE TIME!"

"ALRIGHT ALRIGHT!" With that, she finally stops and went downstairs.

I took a quick shower and prep up right away - then glance at the mirror one more time before grabbing my backpack while putting my phone in my pocket and went down. I saw mom fixing her bun then her gaze went to mine with a smile on her face. 

"Finally, you're prepped up. Grab some quick breakfast before going to school." She reminded me but I just shook my head and proceeded to the door.

"No need, mom. Gotta go. Love you!"

I heard her call my name as I shut the door but I didn't budge to go back inside again. I immediately opened the driver's seat and hop in. Within 30 minutes, I reached my uni. It's already my third subject. But the heck I care, I already have an photo album collection of my late slips.

Seriously.

Once I reached my classroom, I used the door at the back to enter. But guess what? It's my hawk-eye teacher whose already in front. Unexpectedly, she caught me off-guard.

"Guess who's here, class? It's the almighty Taehyung. Get your late slip--"

"Alright, alright. I'll get it." I said as I took my seat.

Her eyes widened a bit because I cut her mid-sentence but immediately went back to normal. She just tsked and proceeded with her lectures. As if I'm scared to her. I'm not scared to any teachers here in school. Excuse me, detention is like my second home already. 

"Hey." I whispered as I tap Jungkook's shoulder.

He didn't budge. For sure, he's mad at me for going to school late. I sighed and just listened to the lectures. Until a crumpled paper hit me, I creased my brows and looked at my back where it came from.

It was from Hoseok hyung.

"Look. At. The. Pa. Per." He mouthed carefully and I obeyed.

Good thing, our teacher is busy writing something on the board and didn't caught him threw the paper at me. I opened the paper and read it.

"Namjoon said he saw him. Good thing, we r not the same class w/ him. He is at the other floor."

That explains why I didn't saw him inside this room. Okay, I will not stress myself for someone who is not in the same class with me. I don't have time to stress myself out - all I need to think about is how to calm Jungkook after I came to school late. 

The bell ringed. Our hawk-eye teacher bid us goodbye.

"Guys, we have no teacher on the next subject. Ms. Lee said let's just read pages 123 for the preparation for tomorrow's lesson." One of my classmates said.

And as expected, no one followed. The class became noisy in one click. I decided to take this time to talk to Jungkook. The longer I don't talk to him, the madder he will get because of no explanations he got. 

I tap his shoulder, "Kookie?"

He looked back at me with his creased brows, "You came late. Hmp."

"Look, I'm sorry. Okay? I overslept." For the first time, I lied to him. 

He sighed and his eyes soften, "Okay. I understand."

"Wanna eat?" I asked which made him creased his brows again because of confusion.

"What? We can't just go to the cafeteria because we had class." He said.

"Nah. We can. There are lots of people in the cafeteria because other class are having their recess." I insisted.

"Hm? Really?" He asked again, this time he looks convinced by that idea..

I just nod. I'm really hungry. Remember, I didn't eat my breakfast and that's one of my stupidity. I didn't even ate dinner before going to bed. Too much hunger at once. I need food to stuff my empty stomach.

"Alright. Let's eaaat!" He jumped up which made me laugh. 

We made it out of our room and we proceed to the cafeteria. As expected, there are lots of people. Different students from different classes.

"Go look for our seat. I'll order our food." I requested to him. 

"Okay. Just buy me pizza and soda. I'm fine with it." He said with a smile before searching for our seat.

I fall in line and get a tray. The serving was fast so I got our food within fifteen minutes. I was about to find our seat when someone bumps me at the back.  What the actual fuck?! I nearly drop the tray! If I'm in a bad mood this morning, I will surely punch this person's face. 

"Yah! You--"

My eyes widened at the sight when I turned to see who bumped at me.

"Tae... Taehyung?" He said, his eyes are as big as mine. 

"Bambam...?" My voice trailed off.

I was about to ask why is he here when he hug me. He's hugging me for Pete's sake! In the middle of the cafeteria! Where there are lots of people! I can tell that lots of them are looking at us. Is this the moment when you wish that the floor will just eat you and disappear? I guess this is! 

SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE ME!

Finally, he pulled back and a grin is on his face.

"I miss you! How are you?" He asked as if it's the most normal and not awkward thing in the world. 

"Tae." Someone called me and I really know that voice.

I looked at him, "Kookie."

Jungkook's face is blank but his eyes are full of confusion.

"Who is that?" Bambam asked and my gaze turned into him.

I hesitated, "Oh. He's just a friend."

Wait! What?! You told him that he is just your FRIEND? JEON JUNGKOOK IS NOT YOUR FRIEND, FREAKTARD! TAKE BACK WHAT YOU SAID! 

Bambam's mouth formed an O and he cling into my arm, "Oh, hi there! I'm Taehyung's boyfriend."

"Bambam!" I said and he giggled then removed his arm into mine.

"Just kidding. We're over." He said but there's no trace of bitterness in his words which is a good sign.

"Oh. Nice to meet you, Bambam. I'm Jungkook. Taehyung's friend." Jungkook faked a smile and there's a hint of annoyance in the last word which made me cringe a bit.  

"I gotta go, Taehyung. I need to do something. Catch up with your ex! I'm sure you had a lot of things to talk about. Enjoy!" He said, his voice is too excited but fake, before walking away from us. 

Well well well.

Looks like this is my karma and I'll have to solve this shit up.
