After a few days, Taehyung was able to teach properly again, although, he couldn't face Y/N because of the embarrassing thing he did at the bar, and Y/N has been practicing how to approach Taehyung for the past few days. It was already Y/N and Jungkook's break time

"Yah! Kookie, can you see if this is good enough?" Y/N asked, making her friend sigh "What?" "Noona, hyung isn't the type of guy who'd care about how you approach him, because he's also one who doesn't know how to handle awkward situations" Jungkook explained for the hundredth time "I still want to make sure" Y/N stated

Jungkook decided to give up and just listen to what Y/N had to prepare 'this seems like a scene that you'd see in a comedy movie aish' he thought "Hi Mr Kim, I mean, Taehyung, Uhm, about what happened- ugh, I shouldn't rush the conversation!" Y/N said quietly and grunted

"I know they say that practice makes perfect but these things doesn't need that, go with the flow" Jungkook mentioned "Break is almost over, also the school day, you're going to approach hyung right?" Deep inside, Y/N wasn't sure, it seemed like a small thing but the situation itself is too awkward, especially if the person she is going to face is her teacher!

"I'll try" Jungkook was alright with her answer so they headed to their classroom to get through with the last few periods before the school day ends. After the last period, Taehyung came in to check his class as usual. Eversince he came back from his 'break' , almost every student has been asking for every little detail about it. Taehyung told the class that he went to Jeju Island because his cousin invited him Chaerin, for some reason, didn't believe any of what he said, whilst the others, except Jungkook and Y/N, listened to Taehyung's story in awe

It was 3:00pm when Taehyung dismissed the class, Jungkook and Y/N left and came back after 15 minutes "Oh, Mr Jeon, Ms Park, what are you doing here?" Taehyung tried to sound formal "Uhm, hyung, there's no need for that, all the staff left and even the students" Jungkook stated, Taehyung looked relieved "Good to know"

"So uhm…. Y/N noona here has something to tell you and I feel like this is between the two of you only so I'm going home now byee!!" Jungkook rushed out of the room before Y/N could process whatever he just said. 'Wait what?! Jungkook! I just said that it'll be harder without you! not with you! Ugh!' Y/N complained in her mind, Y/N tried to be calm by breathing in deeply "Look, Taehyung, I don't know if you remember what happened at-"

"Jungkook told me, and flashes of that night came back, it's no big deal right?" Taehyung answered, and lied a bit, he was a bit nervous at what Y/N has to say "O-Oh, right, but, I would like to ask you something about what you said" she mentioned, Taehyung's nervousness grew inside, he said something? He begged that he didn't say anything about her past

"I'm guessing you don't remember what you said?" Y/N asked Taehyung nodded, she tried to remember the exact words he released that night so she could explain what happened in an accurate way

"Uhm, Taehyung, hope you don't mind, but what are you doing here?" She asked, it looked like Taehyung slept again 'Oh great' Y/N thought, she was about to stand up when Taehyung spoke "Don't leave…" "Huh?" "Stay" he begged while his eyes were still closed

"Taehyung? What's wrong?" Y/N asked

"I miss you….." he muttered, Y/N's eyes grew wide, did she hear it correctly? No, maybe it wasn't meant for her, she shouldn't assume things so easily "Please, come back" Y/N wondered, what did he mean? Is there someone he cared about that left him? He opened his eyes a bit

Y/N would be lying if she said that her heart wasn't beating fast, she was nervous, what if he's still drunk? Well Taehyung would just say random things right? Taehyung moved closer to Y/N "You look just like her" he hiccupped "Look like who-?" Y/N asked but was cut off when Taehyung placed his lips unto hers

Taehyung wanted to beat himself on the spot for saying those, I ruined the plan, I'm dead he thought "I'm sorry if I'm curious, but was there a girl that you loved so much? And do we look the same?"

"U-Uh yes" he lied, oh well, might as well go with the story "We were childhood friends, we didn't really have any feelings for one another until college when we kissed at a bar because of a dare, we eventually started seeing eachother and the rest is history" Taehyung wanted to lie about their past but thought that it's only right if he kept a few things "We even bought a dog together I kinda miss him, I hope he misses me too" "Where is he?" Y/N asked "In my hometown, I can't take care of him because I'm busy right now, and seeing Tannie brings back sad memories" Taehyung sighed

"You know, I could take care of him, maybe Jungkook and the boys could also help, I'm sure that a dog can't stay away from his owner for a long time" Y/N smiled, thinking that the dog could help Taehyung, he was shocked, she never changed, it's like she still knew a lot of things about dogs "Sorry for interrupting your story, you can continue"

"O-Okay, I don't mind, you're so kind Y/N, maybe that's why Jimin is very protective" Taehyung grinned while Y/N blushed a bit "anyways, we were alright but something came up, till this day, I didn't know what I did for her to leave me like that, and when we met, I thought that you were her, but after a few days I realized that she'll never come back to me, and both of you just coincidentally look the same" He was smiling even if he felt his tears falling, but it wasn't because of the story, it was because of the fact that he can't even tell her the truth, in Taehyung's eyes, he's a coward for that

Y/N felt bad for Taehyung, and she was saddened by what he had to go through "We didn't even get a chance to finish our game" he laughed a bit "If I were her, I'd be happy to know that you still think about me despite everything" Y/N mentioned, which made Taehyung feel like he was about to explode any in moment 'why is she being so kind?' Both stayed quiet for a minute then Y/N hugged Taehyung suddenly, Taehyung stiffened by what she did "I'm here for you Taehyung, it's not good to keep all the sadness inside, we should all let it out once in a while" she whispered, Taehyung smiled a bit, knowing that the Y/N he knows and loves is still with him
