[EXTRA] Sweet Torture

"So my plan was to bring my books from high school," she started talking as she pulled out books from her backpack, apparently it was larger than it looked. "I did advanced English so it's like the same as in our class but then I remembered that all of that is in Thailand and I stole books from Kai, Soomin's older brother," her lively way of speaking brightened his days, it was embarrassing. "He goes to a bilingual school and his mother speaks a lot in English too. My father also does that," and that was all she said about herself. Now Jungkook could deduce that perhaps her father was a foreigner. Maybe he was European? Lisa had something on her face that screamed Europe.

She leafed through a book, one of those typical English books with a group of children of different races on the cover, but he rested his face on his fist and stared her. That morning she was wearing a vintage T-shirt, white with red details and the lipstick she wore combined with it, it was a soft red that made her lips look even more like those of a doll. She was using her specs, apparently she really needed them although if she used them to look pretty, it was working more than good. Jungkook felt like an idiot with his own glasses, they were just to wear them sometimes but he didn't like them anyway.

A lock of hair slid in front of her face and she gently put it behind her ear, showing the golden star earrings on her ears. Her hair looked soft and thin. He remembered that it had been gray before or something like that, now it was golden.

She looked up then and he quickly tore off his gaze, looking around as if the huge university library were super interesting and oh my god, is that a girl with violet hair? Great, interesting, never seen before. Jungkook? Impressed.

"You know the basics, right?" she asked him then, leaving her chocomilk aside after drinking.

"What would be the 'basic'?"

She shrugged, the gold chain of her neck slid even lower under the collar of her shirt and he followed the small movement, that mole there in the side of her neck looked so tempting but at the same time it was a delicate detail of hers.

"You know, Verb To Be? I am, You are, he is..."

"Ah," he nodded. He was ignorant but not so ignorant. English was just confusing for him.

She clapped. "Great! Simple past?"

Past...

Past...

Past...

"Oh! Past! Was, were, did?"

Lisa nodded, shit, she was more excited than himself. "Well, that means you also know the Simple Present"

Yes, after failing three years in a row, at least he did know that. Although he wasn't very good with verbs or words or most of the English vocabulary.

"Then, we'll start with that," she selected a sheet and took his pencil that was next to his book. "I was asking those who did English I in the first semester and said that the first exam is simply about that, so today, my friend, we will make thousands of sentences"

Wow, that sounded exciting.

Super exciting.

Yay!

***

Well, this was being torture.

Lisa had sat beside him and guided him with each step, leaning over him and her body so close to his. She smelled sweet and fresh, like fruit, not very strong and his sensitive nose was grateful for it. His whole body, meanwhile, was pleased.

He probably couldn't understand the exercises very well because he spent thinking about how good she smelled and how much he liked having her around. He liked that she was so comfortable around him, she didn't feel that fear of touching him or bothering him, she didn't prejudge him, shit, apparently it drove him crazy that thing of hers of treating him like just one more boy, even if seeing her talking to other boys in the same way also drove him crazy but differently. Depressively because ow, you're not special, JK.
