it was the following day.

it had been pretty normal. boring, to be honest.

the group of seven boys went to dreaded classes and hung out together.

the only unusual thing that happened today was an incident in taehyung's class involving a boy named sehun.

sehun thought it'd be funny to crack a joke about taehyung and, although the latter didn't speak fluently, he didn't want to let it fly.

~earlier that day~

it was math class, third period, and the teacher was out printing something.

taehyung was sitting at his desk which was in the row before the back. sehun and his friends all sat around behind him.

"where's he from again?" a boy, whom taehyung knew as minho, asks.

"isn't it france or something?" sehun replies, glancing at taehyung.

"yeah, that's it." a girl called solar confirmed.

sehun tsked, "dweeb."

"sehunnie, you're just jealous because girls and guys were practically stripping for him the minute he walked through the door." hwasa said and solar giggled, nodding.

"shut up hwasa! besides, i don't get why everyone is so in love with that guy anyway. the idiot can't even form a sentence but people already wanna fuck him." sehun said, rolling his eyes and laughing.

now, as time passed, taehyung had become quite a bit better at understanding english. his rougher spot was actually speaking it himself. for example, if someone asked him a question in english there was a 70% chance he'd understand it but only a 30% chance of being able to answer properly.

not to mention, taehyung also wasn't stupid and common sense got you a long way, not just in highschool but in life.

that being said, taehyung had a rough idea of what sehun was saying about him and he assumed that the reason the said boy didn't whisper or anything is because he thought he couldn't understand.

god, idiotic children are way more common in this country, huh?  taehyung thought, rolling his own eyes.

(a/n: by the way, when taehyung thinks to himself like right here, he obviously thinks in french but like, to make it easier, i write it in english because who tf has time to translate his thoughts??? ok cool.)

taehyung shifted around on his seat to face sehun.

he looked at him with a "you really thought i couldn't hear you?" kind of look that made sehun's teasing smile drop immediately.

i mean, sehun wasn't exactly afraid of taehyung but the gaze he held on him at that moment was still intimidating.

"arrêter de parler. des cellules mortes de la peau sortent de votre bouche. va te faire foutre." taehyung said with an innocent smile.

"what the fuck does that mean?" sehun asked.

"use google." taehyung clapped back and a few classmates let out giggles.

namjoon, who was also in the class watching the whole ordeal, found this hilarious since he was the only person who could fully understand taehyung.

so, being the instigator he was, he got up and walked over to them. he patted sehun on the shoulder and said,

"in case your too dense to use the internet, he said: stop talking. dead skin cells are coming out of your mouth. and then he told you to go fuck yourself." namjoon smiled.

sehun's mouth dropped and the class erupted in laughter.

"yo, did you actually just allow yourself to get dragged in a different language?!"

"fatality. KO. wasted."

"serves you right!"

taehyung and namjoon looked at eachother for a second before smiling at eachother and shaking hands.

"plaisir de faire affaire avec vous, monsieur." taehyung laughed.

[trans: pleasure doing business with you, sir.]

"bien sur monsieur." namjoon said back.

[trans: of course sir.]

~back to the present~

now that it was after school, taehyung and jeongguk were planning to meet for their first lesson.

they planned to meet in the library since literally no one uses it after school.

jeongguk saw jimin standing by the gate as he usually does and ran up to him.

"hey ggukie, ready to go?" jimin asked, linking arms with him.

"yeah, um, about that. i'm meeting taehyungie right now to study so i can't walk home with you today..." jeongguk informed.

"oh, that's fine then, i guess... have fun." jimin said smiling but you could easily tell that he was disappointed.

"i will. i'll see you tommorrow jimin-ssi." jeongguk smiled, hugging his bestfriend.

"bye bye ggukie." jimin says, returning the hug before walking away down the street.

now that jeongguk had made sure jimin wasn't waiting around for him, he ran into the nearest boys' bathroom.

he looked in the mirror and tried fixing his hair which already looked cute anyway before pulling out makeup from his bag and fixing the areas that had smudged or worn off throughout the day.

"i can't be alone so close to him if i look a mess like this."

he didn't look a mess.

"ugh, he's still gonna notice."

there was nothing to notice.

"or maybe he'll realise i'm trying too hard..."

he doesn't care.

"whatever, it's better than no makeup at all."

he looked cute both ways.

"he'll be able to see how disgusting i look from up close, great."

he didn't look disgusting at all.

once he was done, he sighed and shoved his makeup bag back into his backpack and rushed out of the bathroom to the staircase.

once he made it up, he saw the one and only kim taehyung waiting for him outside the library.

he made small jog-like steps towards him before smiling, "hey!"

"hello doll." taehyung greeted, air kissing his cheek before holding the library door open for him.

they walk into the huge, empty room and sat at a table in the corner.

jeongguk notices taehyung's eyes on him and immediately pulls out all his books, wanting to distract taehyung's eyes from looking at him so intensely.

"o-okay so, what should we go over first?" jeongguk asked.

"i don't know." taehyung groaned, already bored of learning as if he'd even learnt anything yet.

"god, i really should've begged namjoon to do this." jeongguk muttered to himself before taking a book from taehyung's pile and opening on a page about how to describe people.

"let's start with this, okay?" jeongguk suggested.

taehyung looked at the page and read the small description at the top that was in french and nodded, "okay."

and so they began.

jeongguk taught the older boy a lot of basic words when it came to describing physical appearance or personality.

i mean, it was pretty difficult considering taehyung's laziness. not to mention his continuous flirting which always made jeongguk forget what he was explaining.

after an hour and a half of "studying", jeongguk decided to begin wrapping up today's lesson.

"so, if i asked you to describe namjoon in five words or less, what would you say?" jeongguk asked, also typing his question into google translate just in case.

"ummm, he's very... smart." taehyung answered.

"good! now, what about jimin?"

"he's... whiny." taehyung said.

jeongguk tried not to giggle but ultimately failed, "okay, and um what about hoseok?"

"happy."

"and yoongi?"

"grumpy"

"now, seokjin?"

"he's helpful."

"and what about me?" jeongguk asked as his final question.

"hmmm... you're pretty, doll." taehyung answered truthfully, poking the younger boy's cheek.

jeongguk blushed, not knowing whether that was taehyung flirting as usual or if that was a serious answer to his question but still appreciating it either way.

"o-okay well, that's all for today." jeongguk announced.

"finished?" taehyung asked.

"yep, all done." jeongguk confirmed.

"yes~" taehyung sighed, leaning back in his chair.

jeongguk chuckled and pulled him up, "come on you big baby, we gotta go home."
