"Why do you wear glasses?" you asked lazily to Taehyung who was reading a book as you looked around the noisy cafeteria.

"They help me concentrate" Taehyung replied shortly, still not averting his eyes from the book.

"So, you don't have any problems with your eyesight?" you asked and he nodded blankly.

"Mong-Tae is back" you mumbled under your breath and continued eating your noodles.

Suddenly, he gave his boxy grin and continued eating his lunch after placing the book aside.

"Alien, are you a man on your periods?" you asked with a lazy sigh to him who just grinned wider. "No one gets mood swings like you" you mumbled and continued eating your noodles.

His pen fell down on the floor and he bent down from the chair to pick it.

Noticing the pen drop, you bent down from your place too, causing both of you to bump your head against each other.

"Sorry" he said with the same innocent face as you raised your head.

When he picked the pen and got up, his hand hit you this time. Not on your head, but your bust.

Your eyes widened and Taehyung froze in his spot.

His mouth parted as his face looked equally shocked like yours too.

"I-I'm s-sorry" he stuttered looking down to his lap, still in a shocked trance as he placed a hand on his chest.

Thankfully, no one else noticed what just happened in your table.

"It hurts, you idiot" you mumbled, hugging your bag.

"I d-didn't mean to" he said while patting your back, not knowing what to do as he slightly panicked.

After a few seconds when the pain was gone, you faced him who was still in a shocked trance, feeling guilty.

"I'll call you Byun-Tae from today" you mumbled loud enough for him to hear and he pouted while looking down at his lap.

Time skip~

"Do you usually walk home?" Taehyung asked and you nodded bluntly before walking inside the grocery store with him.

"You don't do any part time jobs?" he asked and you shook your head as a no.

"What about you?" you asked and Taehyung shook his head too.

You already knew that his parents send him money every month and he concentrates more on studying. And also about his grandmother who showered him with love for almost half of his life, until she died.

You also know that Taehyung grew up on a farm as a countryside kid, which explains his naive character.

(A/n: Taehyung's parents were supportive, but they were always busy. As a result, he was raised by his grandmother, for almost half of his life, about 14 years. His grandmother was one of the closest people to Tae until she passed away)

"Why did you not apply for any jobs?" Taehyung asked.

"Because my parents left me enough money and I also have an uncle to send me money" you simply said. "I just have to study" you added.

"Oh" Taehyung nodded. "What do your parents do?" he asked as he pushed up his glasses.

"Nothing" you stated, making Taehyung confused. "They're dead" you just said and Taehyung stopped on his tracks.

Noticing that Taehyung was not beside you, you turned your head back with a questioning look on your face.

"What?" you asked with a confused face.

"Your parents, they-" his words were cut off by you.

"Mong-Tae, I got over it. No fellow feeling" you said and walked back to him.

Holding his arm, you pulled him with you.

"What are we doing here?" Taehyung asked as he looked around, realizing what part of the store you brought him to.

"Oh, we're here to eat" you said with a sarcastic smile. "We're here to buy sanitary napkins, you alien" you snapped and heat rushed up to Taehyung's cheeks.

"Don't give me the crap that it's girls' personal or whatever" you said and rolled your eyes.

(A/n: I hate the way people tell that you having your mensuration is disgusting, you should not be sharing it with others, it's personal, and all. Just, why can't they stop discriminating and understand that it's just your body. Also I literally hate it when people call period or us on our period, impure and that girls should be kept away at those time)

Just then, you saw Taehyung staring confusedly at a girl who was literally checking him out with a dirty smile plastered on her face.

And after looking at the face that Taehyung made, crossing his eyes, you couldn't help but let out a small laugh.

The girl blinked exactly twice before walking away from there hurriedly as she thought that Taehyung was an alien.

Hitting his shoulder playfully, you dragged him away.

Time skip to night~

"Woah! Looks like I don't have to cook after this" you said while looking at Taehyung's cooking skills.

He just gave you a boxy grin and placed the kimichi fried rice on the table.

As you placed the food inside your mouth, you immediately felt tears running down your cheeks.

"Wae?! Why are you crying?" Taehyung panicked. "Is it too spicy?" he asked again and you shook your head.

"This food is so tasty, Kimichi Taehyung" you said and wiped your tears of joy.

Taehyung sighed and a proud smile appeared on his lips.

"See" he said. "I should cook every day for us" he said again, making you nod in agreement and he started to eat the kimichi fried rice as he sat beside you.

Dinner was finished and you both moved to your own beds.

"Byun-Tae" you called in a loud voice from upstairs and Taehyung who just placed his glasses on the nightstand, looked up at you.

"Good night" you yelled to him and pulled the blanket over you.

"Good night" Taehyung yelled from down too. He looked beside his bed to the floor, Yeontan who was sleeping on his dog mattress.

"Good night, Tannie" he mumbled with a boxy smile and turned off the lights, letting sleep take over him.
