as if his english teacher knew what was exactly on his mind, he assigned him to tutor jinhyuk when he was in detention. sometimes he wondered if he was thinking out loud sometimes or if fate was on his side all of a sudden.

"ah wooseok" mr. choi called out, once wooseok was done cleaning the chalk board, "i have a favor to ask of you"

wooseok smiled, throwing out the napkin he was using, "what is it mr. choi?"

"i know you're busy and all since you're the student council president again this year but i was wondering if you're interested in tutoring someone" the elder rubbed the back of his nape awkwardly.

"oh" wooseok pushed up his circle framed glasses, "i could definitely make time for that" who was he to pass up a good offer to help out another student. it was his speciality after all.

"since you get good grades in my english class, i was wondering if you would want to tutor jinhyuk. only if you want to of course! he could be a handful sometimes" mr. choi giggled, setting down the textbook he was holding onto his desk.

wooseok's eyes widened for the slightest bit before he composed himself. tutoring one of the biggest troublemakers in the school? was that really a good idea? maybe he could break that frozen personality of his.

"wooseok?" wooseok snapped out of his wandering thoughts and smiled at his teacher.

"i can do that" wooseok grabbed his backpack and slung it over his shoulders, "when should i start?"

"you can start today then" mr. choi said, turning around and handing him a packet, "he has detention in the library today"

wooseok nodded, grabbing the sheets of paper and walking to the library. how hard could it be? he's tutored tons of people before. jinhyuk shouldn't be hard to tutor right? the closer he got to the library, the more anxious he got. he didn't know the first things about talking to a rude vampire.

he looked through the glass walls and saw jinhyuk sleeping on the table in the library. that calming face was a rare sight to see since he'd frown half the time. he walked over quietly to the table, sitting down across the vampire.

how was he supposed to wake him up?

wooseok tapped the vampire's shoulder, only to get a mumble of incoherent words coming out of his mouth and a slap on his hand. he tried again and there was no reaction this time. letting out a sigh, he laid his head down in his arms and stared at the black pile of hair in front of him.

"mr. choi asked me to tutor you" wooseok poked the older's head, "can you wake up please?"

with a loud grumble, jinhyuk lifted up his head and stretched his arms before looking at the president, "don't touch my head. what do you want?"

"i'm your english tutor from now on" wooseok attempted to smile, "mr. choi asked me"

jinhyuk rolled his eyes, "get lost. i'm trying to sleep here"

"but he—"

"i don't want a tutor and i don't need a tutor" jinhyuk spat, putting his head into his arms again, "tell him that he has better things to do than put his head into books and bring a tutor to me"

"hey!" wooseok frowned, crossing his arms, "that's not nice!"

jinhyuk looked at him in the eye, "was i ever nice?" he sighed, "don't bother me anymore"

"but still!" wooseok exclaimed quietly, standing up and slamming his hands on the table, "books are good y'know! its better than getting into fights all day and—"

jinhyuk slammed his fist onto the table in annoyance, "that's exactly why i don't like people like you mr. president. all you know is to stick your head into other people's business and those paper books of yours!"

blood practically drained out of wooseok's face. he should've expected this, yet he's still shocked by the sudden outburst from the vampire. he clenched his fist and stomped his foot on the ground, making the vampire raise an eyebrow at him.

"what? do you have better things to do mr. president?" the taller chuckled, pushing the chair out and getting up on his two feet, "you shouldn't be making a scene in the library or else someone will see. aren't you scared of losing your position in the student council for yelling at a student?"

oh how wooseok wanted to wipe that smirk off of the vampire's face. everything about him got him agitated. from his gelled up hair to the annoying grin plastered on his face made wooseok puff his cheeks.

"i'll come back tomorrow then since you don't want to listen" wooseok crossed his arms, walking out of the library, "maybe you can change that attitude of yours in a day"

that left the vampire chuckling as he sat back down. boy was this going to be interesting.
