Alien in love

Chapter 3

It's already Monday and today is the first day that I'm going to clean our classroom after class.

Actually, we all have assigned cleaning duties but Mr. Lee told us that since it's our punishment, the assigned cleaning duty for this week is exempted from cleaning.

I looked at my classmates leaving the classroom. I envy them. We're dismissed but I'm stuck here. I sighed in disappointment.

"Stella, you're so lucky to be with Taehyung after class." Tina giggled in excitement. What is this girl saying? Lucky?

"Lucky? I don't think cleaning up our classroom is lucky. It's all Taehyung's fault." I defended myself and furrowed my eyebrows.

"It's okay, Stella. At least, Taehyung apologized." She smiled and pat my shoulder.

"This won't happen if Taehyung didn't talk to me during our quiz." I said.

"Okay. Okay. Well, goodluck. Enjoy being with V. Just send me a message if there's an interesting happening between you two.." Tina chuckled.

"Nope. Not gonna happen." I shook my head.

"Stells! Let's start cleaning." I heard Taehyung calling me in a happy tone.

"Well, I should get going now. Goodbye, Stella. See you tomorrow. Enjoy." She giggled then, she walked out.

"Stells.." Taehyung called out my name and he looks happy. He is one happy guy. I don't know why is he always happy. I find him really weird because he is still happy even though, he is cleaning right now.

"Hey." He called out at me again.

"Don't talk to me."

"Oh, c'mon. I just want to be friends." He smiled.

"Well, I don't want to." I smiled. I took the broom and started sweeping.

"Please?"

Ignore him, Stella. Just focus on cleaning.

"Please?"

Ignore him.

"Stop ignoring me, Stells." He said in a sad tone. He is so weird and annoying. What a troublesome guy. He is still bugging me.

I was surprised when I suddenly felt a poke on my waist and it's done by Taehyung. To be honest, I'm ticklish in that part of my body. He continued tickling me and I ended up sitting because it's really ticklish. I can't take it anymore.

"Stop it." I laughed.

"I won't stop until you forgive me." He chuckled.

"Okay. Okay. Fine. I forgive you." I said in defeat then, he stopped tickling me. I can't win with this guy.

"Yes! Good. I won!" Taehyung giggled and I realized that he is really handsome especially when he is smiling or laughing. I shook my head. What the hell am I saying?

"So.. Friends?" He asked smiling and he offered his hand wanting to shake hands with me. Friends? Is it a good idea to be friends with this guy? I stared at him and I sighed.

"Okay. Fine. But I won't shake hands with you." I answered and I heard him chuckle. "Okay. Thanks."

"Let's get back on cleaning so, we can go home." I said.

"Okay." He chuckled again. He is really a carefree guy. I don't know if he is weird but I think he is just really friendly.

It's Tuesday today and this is the second day that I'm cleaning our classroom later. I can't wait till it's Friday. I want to end my cleaning duty. By the way, I'm here at our School's cafeteria eating lunch with Tina.

"So, what happened yesterday?" Tina asked in excitement.

Here she goes again interrogating me about Taehyung. She's asking me questions about that earlier and she is really not satisfied that I told her that nothing happened.

I looked at her annoyed. "Nothing. We just cleaned our classroom. That's all, Tina."

"Aww.. Really? That's so boring." She sighed.

"Stop it.."

"Anyways.. I'll be cheering you on with V.." She giggled.

"No, thanks.." I shook my head in disagreement. Besides, the only guy that I like is Jun.. I looked at the other table in front of us and it's where Jun is sitting. He's together with Taehyung and Yuri as always. I stared at Jun's face while he is talking to V and Yuri. He really is so handsome and now, he is laughing together with his friends. I couldn't take away my eyes off him but I was surprised when Jun caught me staring at him.

My eyes widened and I looked away. Oh my gosh! That is so embarrassing! He saw me staring at him. Calm down, Stella. Maybe I should go back to our classroom.

I looked at Tina and her eyes are fixed on her phone.

"Tina, let's go back to our classroom." I said.

"What? Why? We still have 20 minutes."

"Let's go.. Please.."

"Okay.." She agreed and we stood up then, we quickly walked towards our classroom. I can't stay any longer in our cafeteria or else I'll keep on staring at Jun and he might see me staring at him again. I'll die in embarrassment if that happens again.

Our class ended and we're dismissed. How I wish I can go home straight. Anyways, let's clean this freaking classroom so, I can go home early. After our classmates left, V and I decided to start cleaning.

"Let's hurry and clean this mess up." I said and I grabbed the broom to start sweeping.

"Okay, Stells. Let's do this." He smiled widely at me and he's all fired up to clean. He's not annoying after all.

After sweeping the floor, I decided to wipe the windows. To my surprise, I saw Jun playing basketball outside. He looks happy while he is playing with his teammates in basketball.

Actually, I have been watching him play basketball every Sports fest in School and I can say that he is really good in playing basketball. He was the MVP last year and I hope that this year he will still be the MVP. I'm really cheering him on.

I noticed that they stopped playing for a while and my eyes followed Jun and he is walking towards Yuri, who is sitting on a bench near the basketball court. My heart just sank with the sight of it. I know that they are not dating but it really hurts seeing the two of them together.

"Who are you looking at?" I jolted in surprise when I heard Taehyung's voice and he's already next to me. I looked away and continued wiping the window.

"Nothing." I answered.

"Really? I think you're looking at someone." He said happily.

"N-Not really."

"It's Jun, right?" He asked curiously.

"N-NO!"

"Really? I know your eyes are following Jun's movement." He chuckled.

"Well.. it's because he's just good in playing basketball." I answered. Try to calm down. Don't panic, Stella.

"I see. Do you like him?" He suddenly asked and I can feel that he is looking at me. Don't make it obvious, Stella.

"What? No." I quickly denied trying to hide my nervousness.

"Then, that's good." He nodded and I looked at him in confusion.

"Why?"

"Because you can't like him. Just like someone else but not him." He answered in a serious tone. This is the first time that I saw Taehyung showed a serious expression to me. But.. why? Why can't I like him?
