Taemin's POV

"Minnie!" yelled a voice from behind me. I turned around to see Kibum umma bounding up to me.

"UMMA!" I greeted, my blank face quickly changing to a bright smile.

He hugged me and ruffled my hair. "Ready to see what Minho's reaction is?" He asked.

No, I'm not ready. I actually feel like I'm gonna faint from anxiety. I just want to go back home and crawl into bed. I sighed. "Yes, Kibum, I am. I think."

Kibum chuckled. "Yes you are." he said before tugging me through the main doors of K High.

We made our way to our lockers like normal, not attracting any kind of attention. Okay... so maybe I'm overreacting. I don't really know what I'd been expecting. Maybe for Minho to come running up to me and immediately peg me as the sender?

"Taemin?" Kibum called, snapping back to reality. "What're you doing? You keep looking at Minho... and not in the usual 'you love him' kind of way." He said confused.

"A-Ah. Oh I was? Sorry. Let's just get to class." I stammered. Had I really just been watching Minho to see if he even would ask me about the letter? For God's sake, we weren't even friends! Why the hell would he go to me for advice??

Kibum nodded and followed me into our 1st period. 

We were just talking about nothing in particular, me trying to completely avoid the topic of the letter, while the other students piled in.

"Today, we will work in partners." Our teacher started as the bell rang. Key and I glanced at each other and gave slight nods. "And I will choose who you will be working with." 

My mouth hung open. MWO? We ALWAYS got to pick our partners.

"First will be Mir and Jaejoong, Amber and Seungri, Minzy and Hyunjoong, Kibum and Onew..." I looked at Kibum sadly. He gave me a reassuring smile and headed off to sit next to his partner. "And lastly, Taemin and Minho." My eyes widened. Had I heard right??

I glanced at Minho who gave me a bright smile. Yep. I had heard perfectly fine....

"Favorite color?" Minho asked me.

"Oh uh... blue." I answered, looking down at my desk. It was so effing goddamn hard to look him in the eyes! "And you?"

"Red." he said simply. Urgh, stupid teacher who decided to test statistics. We were supposed to interview our partner about their favorite things: food, animal, color, season... and check the overall class percentage of the likelyhood of the same answer. 

"How about your favorite song?" I asked awkwardly.

"Haru Haru." he said.

I looked up at him while he doodled something random on his paper. He finally noticed my glance. "What?" He asked.

"I love that song!!" I exclaimed, smiling brightly. "It's my favorite too!"

He laughed. "Oh really? I just love Big Bang in general so..." he smiled.

"I love 'em more than you." I said, sticking out my tongue.

"Haha Taemin, this is a band we're talking about. Not a person." He laughed, his eyes shining brightly.

I blushed a little at both his comment and his beautiful laughing face. "Y-yah. It's not like I care." I pouted, a tiny bit of my aegyo showing through.

He chuckled. "Favorite drink?" he asked.

"BANANA MILK!" I almost screamed, gaining an amused look from Minho.

"You're such a kid" he smiled.

"So what? Better to enjoy my youth now than when I'm eighty five." I joked.

"Yeah yeah," he chuckled. "So, what kinds of things do you like?" he asked.

I glanced down at the paper. We had finished all of the questions. He was actually making conversation with me? I smiled.

"Ah well, I love amusement parks, and huge teddy bears." 

"Huge teddy bears?"

"Yep. Cuz their really fun to tackle and lay on." I answered.

"Just buy a pillow" he laughed.

"Nope. I like bears." 

"Ah well, I like cinemas but it's not like I go to one every day." He shrugged.

"Oh, I haven't been to the movies in forever! Since Kibum umma's never in the mood."

"Kibum umma...?"

"Yeah. Since he acts like one." I stated.

He laughed. "So you two are close."

"Known each other since kindergarten."

"Oh." He trailed off, making me give him a confused look. "Anyways, since we've never really been to the cinemas in a long time, how about we go tonight?"

"Tonight? Me and you?"

"Well yeah, why?" he asked.

"Nothing." I mumbled right before the teacher took over the classrooom.

The bell rang for lunch and I turned to look for Kibum. "Taemin." Minho called as he stood up. I looked at him. "See you later then? At 5 okay?"

I nodded. "See you later." I replied. He shot me one last smile before he headed out of the classroom.

"What was that about?" I heard Kibum ask me. I spun around to find him behind me and eyeing me suspiciously.

"Nothing." I shrugged.

He pouted. "That was NOT nothing."

I sighed. Fine. "I think I may have just made a date with Minho."

ASDFGHJKL I AM SO SORRY. I have failed you ;-; Not only do I not update enough, but my chapters are super short.

School just started and my life's been busy. And also extremely miserable. GUYYSS I hate my school ;~; I think I love you people so much more. URGH. It's only been two days into the school year but I feel totally crummy and I dread it.

ANYWAYSSSS.... I hope you liked this chapter, sorry if it's a bit stupid. I kinda just pulled that outta my -____- That wasn't planned soo... It probably seems a bit weird for the story line. But yeah, I hope I can get this fic right. Cuz right now, I feel like I'm gonna get about 7 chapters in before I'm like "SCREW IT" and just delete it... IDK. I am just tied down in writer's block.

LALALA my ranting is.... probably stupid. But thank's for putting up with it... if you did... o_O yeah.

Until next time... whenever that may be D:

xoxo<3
