LONGING TO SEE YOU AGAIN(Taekook)(Omegaverse)
CHAPTER 3: Second Encounter
Art department corridor – late morning. Jungkook and Eunwoo are passing by after class.
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
You sure you don’t wanna grab coffee first?
You’ve been spacing out since morning.
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(teasing)
Is this about yesterday again?
You haven’t been the same since you saw flower boy.
Jk(Alpha)
(quiet)
His name is Taehyung.
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
Aha! So you did ask Jimin-hyung.
Jk(Alpha)
No. I… just overheard.
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(grinning)
Sure. “Overheard.”
Totally believable.
[Suddenly, someone turns the corner and nearly bumps into Jungkook.]
Jk(Alpha)
(frozen)
… It’s okay.
Tae(Omega)
(blinking)
Wait…
Aren’t you… Jungkook?
Jk(Alpha)
(slowly)
You remember my name?
Tae(Omega)
(smiling warmly)
Jimin-hyung introduced us yesterday, remember?
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(nudging Jungkook)
She remembers you~ Look at that.
Tae(Omega)
(tilting his head, amused)
I am a “he.”
You okay?
Jk(Alpha)
(blinking fast)
Sorry, yeah. Just—
Didn’t expect to see you again so soon.
Tae(Omega)
(smiling)
Well, we’re on the same campus.
It’s bound to happen.
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(smirking)
Fate, maybe?
Tae(Omega)
(laughs)
You guys are funny.
I was actually looking for the library… again.
I’m hopeless with directions.
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(grins)
Jungkook’s your guy then. He practically lives there.
Jk(Alpha)
(quickly)
I-I can take you there. If you want.
Tae(Omega)
(softly)
Really?
Thanks. That’d be great.
[Jungkook nods and gestures forward, Taehyung falls in step beside him. Eunwoo walks behind, watching them with a knowing smile.]
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(muttering)
Lovebirds in progress.
Should’ve brought popcorn.
On the way to the library
Tae(Omega)
(looking around)
This campus is really pretty.
I feel like I’ll get lost a lot though.
Jk(Alpha)
(softly)
If you do… you can just call me.
Tae(Omega)
(smiling)
Huh? But I don’t have your number.
Jk(Alpha)
(freezes)
… Right.
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(coughs behind them)
That’s usually solved by exchanging numbers, genius.
Jk(Alpha)
(nervously)
I-I mean… only if you want?
Tae(Omega)
(grinning)
Sure, why not?
You seem nice.
[They exchange numbers. Jungkook tries not to smile like an idiot.]
Tae(Omega)
So, what are you majoring in?
Jk(Alpha)
Business and finance…
You?
Tae(Omega)
Art and design.
I want to open my own studio someday.
Jk(Alpha)
(softly)
That suits you.
Tae(Omega)
(turning to him)
Huh?
Jk(Alpha)
(a little flustered)
I-I mean… you seem creative. And free-spirited.
Studio fits that vibe.
Tae(Omega)
(surprised, then smiles)
Thanks. Most people say it's a waste of time.
Jk(Alpha)
(firmly)
It’s not.
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(whispering to himself)
Damn, he’s so gone.
[They reach the library steps.]
Tae(Omega)
Thanks for walking me here. I really appreciate it.
Tae(Omega)
(cheerfully)
Then I guess I’ll see you around, Jungkook.
[Taehyung heads inside. Jungkook watches him until he disappears.]
EW(Alpha)JK's Bestfriend
(walking up beside him)
You’re down bad, bro.
Jk(Alpha)
(barely hearing him)
I know.
Inside the library – Taehyung walking through the shelves, looking for a quiet corner.
Tae(Omega)
(muttering to himself)
Okay… architecture section was… left? Or right?
[He walks a bit, then stops, a small smile tugging at his lips.]
Tae(Omega)
(thinking)
Jungkook.
Tae(Omega)
(sitting at a table, pulling out his sketchbook)
He’s… different.
Tae(Omega)
(thinking)
Not much of a talker… but his eyes.
They were soft. Kind of intense too.
Tae(Omega)
(glancing at his sketchbook)
I didn’t even know I remembered his name that fast.
[He flips open to a blank page, then slowly starts sketching.]
Tae(Omega)
(murmuring)
Strong jawline… bunny eyes…
Those lips were curved so gently when he looked at me.
[He pauses, then chuckles softly.]
Tae(Omega)
(thinking)
I just met him. Why am I sketching him?
Tae(Omega)
(smiling to himself)
He seems… safe. Like someone who wouldn’t hurt me.
It’s rare to feel that so soon.
[A soft buzz. Taehyung looks at his phone: a message from “New Number - Jungkook.”]
Jk(Alpha)
“Hope you didn’t get lost in the shelves.”
Tae(Omega)
(smiles, types back)
“I’m safe. Though the books almost swallowed me.”
Jk(Alpha)
(replying)
“Let me know if you need rescuing.”
Tae(Omega)
(chuckling)
This is going to be interesting.
[Taehyung stays seated, sketching quietly. Just as he’s outlining the lips, someone slides into the seat across from him without warning.]
? ? ?
Whoa… that’s a really nice sketch. Did you draw that just now?
Taehyung blinks up, startled, and meets the curious gaze of a striking omega with long hair tied back casually.
Tae(Omega)
Uh… yeah.
You are…?
? ? ?
Hyunjin. First-year, fine arts. You?
Tae(Omega)
(softly smiling)
Taehyung. Art and design.
Hyunjin (omega)
(grinning)
Guess we’re neighbors then. Mind if I crash here for a bit?
Hyunjin (omega)
(Expecting)
Taehyung closes his sketchbook, Jungkook’s sketched face now hidden. But in his mind, it’s still vivid.
