"You're lucky I was able to convince the principal, the other students, and that boy's parents to let it go!" Yeonjun sighed frustratedly as he forced Taehyun to sit on the sofa.
"Convinced? More like hypnotized," Soobin laughed, ruffling Yeonjun's hair fondly.
"Why on earth did you do that?" Yeonjun asked Taehyun.
"The bleach looked tempting to use," Taehyun answered, looking unbothered.
"On his face?! Did you know that boy is actually blind now?!"
"Good for him," Beomgyu smirked, clearly eavesdropping on their conversation.
"Taehyun, bleach is for cleaning." Yeonjun explained, trying not to lose his patience.
"I just thought his face needed cleaning." Taehyun shrugged.
Soobin and Yeonjun had their mouths open in shock while Beomgyu laughed histerically.
"Go to your room, now." Yeonjun muttered angrily as Taehyun willingly left the living room.
"Damn Yeonjun, stop acting like a middle aged father!" Taehyun laughed while walking up the stairs and Yeonjun had to stop himself from throwing a mug at him.
"...what's with his attitude today?" Soobin asked curiously.
"Dunno," Beomgyu said, quickly following Taehyun when Soobin stopped him.
"Beomgyu- you haven't done your history homework, haven't you?" Soobin smirked and Beomgyu looked confused for a second.
"I don't care! And how did you know about that?" Beomgyu snapped.
Yeonjun face palmed in annoyance while Soobin gaped at Beomgyu in disbelief.
"Beomgyu... I'm literally your history teacher, what the hell?"
"Imagine not paying attention in class so bad you don't even realize who your teacher is," Hueningkai giggled, entering the living room.
"I want a cookie," he suddenly pouted, and Soobin's face expression softened.
"There's some in the refrigerator love," Soobin smiled warmly and Beomgyu scoffed.
"Why is it when I asked for a cookie you didn't give me some?" Beomgyu pouted angrily as he stomped up the stairs.
"Because I'm his favorite!" Hueningkai taunted, blowing a raspberry.
A few more days at school passed by and Beomgyu figured it was time to wreak havoc.
He couldn't let anyone know, even Taehyun, Hueningkai, and especially Soobin and Yeonjun. For now, he was going to start small.
Beomgyu made sure no one was around around and when it was confirmed, he grinned.
He set the fire alarm off.
All Beomgyu felt was malicious glee as he heard students come rushing out of their classrooms panicking, screaming, and pushing each other as they got sprayed by the sprinklers.
It felt nice to cause chaos once again.
Beomgyu ran out of sight when he saw one of his teachers yelling at them to calm down- now was not the time to get caught.
"You set it off, didn't you?" Taehyun whispered behind Beomgyu who almost received a heart attack.
"What the hell is with you and appearing out of nowhere? And n-no, I didn't set t-the fire alarm off!" Beomgyu stuttered nervously.
Taehyun smirked. "You're a very bad liar, Beomgyu."
All of a sudden, Taehyun grabbed Beomgyu's hands and ran under the sprinklers.
Honestly it looked like a scene from a romance movie where two lovers would run under the rain, but instead of rain it's sprinklers and there's panicking students all around them.
"H-hey! Where are you taking me? Taehyun!" Beomgyu yelled.
Going against the crowd, Taehyun dragged Beomgyu into an empty classroom and locked the door behind them.
"Back to doing pranks, I see. Not gonna lie, this prank you did right now isn't one of your best," Taehyun said, drying his hair in front of an electric fan.
"...when did you start becoming talkative?" Beomgyu asked in wonder.
"Here," Taehyun tossed a random student's jacket he found lying around at Beomgyu.
"You must be cold, wear that for now." Taehyun muttered as Beomgyu frowned.
"You didn't answer my question," he complained.
"Well do you expect me to be in a bad mood all the time? Am I not allowed to be in the mood?"
"I don't mean it that way, it's just... I'm not used to see you acting like this. And you hate it when I pull pranks, don't you? How are you still not whooping my ass right now?"
"Oh, you want me to? I can if you wa-"
"-no, no, no, please don't. I'm just saying, you changed." Beomgyu sighed.
"Maybe it's because I'm surrounded by more people this time. You know, more victims." Taehyun smirked. Beomgyu smirked too.
"Yeah. More victims."
Their conversation was interrupted when they heard an agressive knock on the door.
"Choi Beomgyu, Kang Taehyun, we know both of you are in there!"
Beomgyu and Taehyun shot each other panicked glances and immediately tried to find escape routes.
"Window!" Beomgyu whisper-shouted.
The aggressive knocking on the door continued, and it just made them panic even more.
"We're literally on the fourth floor!" Taehyun replied, looking pissed.
"There's no other way of escape, we have to use the window!"
"And die? Well honestly I'd be okay with that and-" Taehyun mumbled when he stopped midway as he saw Beomgyu suddenly jump out of the window.
"That idiot," Taehyun hissed. Reluctantly, he closed his eyes tightly and jumped.
He was waiting for the pain he would feel when he hits the ground only to find himself in Beomgyu's arms.
"How the hell did you catch me?" Taehyun whispered. The two of them stared at each other for a few seconds until Taehyun immediately let himself free of Beomgyu's grasp.
Talk about romance movies.
"And how did your head not splatter like a watermelon, you idiot?" Taehyun asked.
"I climbed down the windows while you literally jumped, I think you're the idiot here." Beomgyu laughed.
"Time to go home, I guess." He sighed.
"But it's just lunch time-"
"You're literally out here caring about lunch when they're looking for us?"
"We're probably dead when Yeonjun and Soobin arrives at home, though."
"But it was fun, wasn't it?" Beomgyu grinned.
Taehyun watched the blue sky above them, and found a cloud that was shaped like a squirrel.
"Yeah, it was." Taehyun smiled gently.
The two of them still weren't able to go home since they were caught by the janitor at the garden so here they were, sitting inside the principal's office.
"Beomgyu. You don't cooperate in class, you're rebellious, and now you set off a fire alarm? Is there any reason you're doing this?" The principal asked, highly annoyed.
"Just for fun," Beomgyu shrugged.
"Just for fun? And you, Taehyun. I didn't think you were the kind of student who would participate in acts like these! This is the first time you've done something like this. I'm very disappointed in you."
First time? Beomgyu frowned, until he remembered that Yeonjun probably wiped the principal's memories about Taehyun's bleach incident.
"You were a great student, you had very satisfacfory grades, and I respected you for that. But you just lost my respect." The principal sighed.
"B-but he didn't do anything! I set the fire alarm off, it's not like he helped me plan it!" Beomgyu yelled.
"You're a bad influence on Taehyun, Beomgyu." The principal said firmly as Beomgyu scoffed.
"From now on, I want the two of you to stay away from each other, and whenever the two of you are seen together you will get demerit points. Understand?"
Beomgyu and Taehyun glanced at each other worriedly.
But the truth was, they were laughing on the inside.
How stupid could their principal be?
"Yes sir, we understand." Taehyun and Beomgyu said sadly.
