"You're pathetic," he mutters.

She slowly looks up at him through her glasses, her small body curled up against the lockers. He stood in front of her, his untied converse and his ruffled uniform sweater evidently showing how out of place he was. Min Yoongi. 

"How could you think that Taehyung would like you? Out of all people in this school, you'd be the last person he'd even look at." Yoongi smirks, her frown settling across her lips as if it was implanted to exist there forever. "Heck, even if you'd be the last person he'd even consider dating, the whole world probably would end."

"How could you do this to people?" She whispers. "Do you just pick on them and do whatever the heck you want to make them feel like shit? Is this what you want?"

"I'm just telling the truth," he shrugs his shoulders. "Just because you and Taehyung were partners for one stupid chemistry project, it doesn't mean you're automatically friends."

"And who are you to tell me that?" She courageously asks him. 

"As I said, I'm just telling the truth," he stares at her amusedly. "Also, I change my mind, Taehyung would never notice you, no matter how hard you try. You're far from his ideal type, and he's just way out of your league. Keep that in mind, yeah?"

"I'm not keeping any promises," she whispers, blinking away the threatening tears.

"Speaking of," he mumbles as Taehyung enters into the hallway, waving him over. "Taehyung, do you mind coming over here for a second?"

Taehyung comes over for a second, and Yoongi wraps his arm around his shoulder, ruffling his hair. Taehyung raises an eyebrow in confusion but Yoongi smirks down at Jaeun. 

"I think we should go out for some lunch, huh?" Yoongi insists and Taehyung nods his head cheerfully, "oh wait, do you want to come?"

She glances up at Yoongi, the two of them looking down at her. Suddenly, Yoongi's smirk widens and she knows that he has something else planned. 

"Oh right, I have no idea who you are." Yoongi grins before turning towards Taehyung, "Tae, do you know who she is?"

Taehyung glances at Yoongi who flashes him a fake smile, but his eyes were telling him otherwise. Taehyung then looks down at Jaeun, who had eyes that were pleading him to do what his heart was telling him to do. But Taehyung clears his throat, avoiding eye contact with her as he mumbles,

"I have no idea who she is, who are you?" 

Jaeun's mouth parts slightly in shock, and Yoongi scoffs smugly before the two of them head down the hallway. She watches them exit the hallway, her heart breaking at the sight of her own chemistry partner, Taehyung, not even turn over his shoulder once.

"Jaeun-ah!"

She looks to her left to see Mina rushing over towards her with a look of concern. Mina looks at Jaeun's ripped textbooks that Yoongi ruined, and her backpack that was almost torn apart. Mina slowly looks at Jaeun, who was already beginning to burst out into a sob. 

"Who did it?" Mina whispers, her eyes squinting and Jaeun bursts out into a loud cry.

"Kim Taehyung, I hate you." Jaeun says through gritted teeth and loud sobs, "I hate you so much."
