It's a Little Complex? 『BTS ✘ Reader』

《65》

"Wait... is this why you guys have been closer lately!" Taehyung suddenly brightened his expression as if he connected all the dots. Well, he technically did.

Yoongi and I shyly nodded. Taehyung nodded as though he knew all along.

After a minute of just silence, I couldn't handle it. They all seemed lost in thought and I couldn't distinguish any of their reactions other than being absolutely flabbergasted. I couldn't handle being in their presence all at once now that the news was out. I felt my anxiety skyrocket as I nervously fumbled with my fingers. I needed to get out.

Suddenly a soft melody rang around the room and I felt a vibration in my back pocket.

Pulling out my phone, I took a moment to stare at the screen. It was an alarm I set earlier and the timing couldn't have been more perfect.

I briefly glanced around the room before I slapped my hand on my forehead as I let out an exaggerated groan.

"I have to go. Work awaits!" I instantly turned on my heel and rushed to put on my shoes.

Swiftly opening the door I vaguely heard Jin yell "Hey, wait! Today is Thur-" before I hastily shut it. Exhaling briefly against it for a moment, I push myself off and quickly scurry down the hall to my room.

Safely entering, I rush over to my room and chuck my bag to the floor before flopping onto my bed.

That alarm was just to wake me up in case I take a nap. Thank the heavens I set it. I don't know what would've happened if I stayed longer.

But on the downside, now I can't nap.

Groaning, I sat up and stared blankly at the bed sheets.

Then it just somehow dawned on me. Recalling all of the events that just occurred suddenly washed over me like a fresh water current in contrast to the haze I felt a couple minutes ago.

They know. Holy shit, they know.

I turned and screamed into my pillow. Thrashing around at sporadic intervals, I began to beat up the pillow as if it was a person.

It took me several moments to finally calm down enough. My heart rate picked up way faster as I still recall all their expressions. I don't know how they felt about the situation and the apprehension I'm feeling right now is something I seriously hate feeling.

I can't believe the truth came out so abruptly.

What's going to happen now?

I sighed as I blankly stared at the wall for a few more seconds before shaking my head. I may as well finish that assignment to occupy my thoughts.

The weekend passed in a flash. I couldn't actually speak or interact with the guys often because of work and getting ahead on assignments. I also don't want to admit that perhaps a tinge of fear also had me avoiding any interaction. They didn't come knocking because they know I've been complaining about the pile of assignments I had to complete over the weekend.

I'm glad they respected that, but that didn't mean the build up of unease and anxiety made the isolation any better.

So here I was as I took small steps towards the art room. I was basically shuffling my feet by a couple inches just to prolong having to face Taehyung. With my face down, I brushed and bumped into lots of people who were walking past. The halls were bustling with the normal student traffic minutes between classes.
