Chapter Text
"the quiz is worth 75 points and 25% of your grade. You may start now." Professor Kim announced.
The students responded in unison as they scanned through the questionnaire and began to answer the questions diligently while the professor checked attendance from his front desk.

Kim taehyung sighed as he loosened his tie and tensed his aching back for having sat so long. It was finals week, and he hadn't slept for three days to examine his students' papers. Being an art teacher surely might lose him some years of his life; the stress he got because of some students taking him lightly about the subject had pissed him off, but as he worked as a full-time teacher, he still had time to work full-time as a fairy. That was what almost everyone called him in the school. He never lost control and always smiled at everyone despite how bad the day could be. After all, taehyung had a secret on why he could smile every day as if bad days could never approach him.
Once seated on his chair inside the teacher's room, taehyung ran his hand on his necklace. he kissed the pendant with so much love. It was his most precious belongings in the world: the ring, with the initials of JK . TH crafted it, which sealed the bond between him and his husband. Whenever he was tired, the thing worked as a charger, and soon, he found himself as cheery and energetic as before. His mind leisurely wandered over his husband. taehyung missed him; they had only been married for a month, but he was forced to be left alone in the house because his husband needed to attend training in Japan for two weeks. Yes, taehyung knew so well that his husband was one of the best PE teachers in Korea and deserved to be sent there, so as the good partner that he was, taehyung fully supported him to leave despite his reluctant. he had worked so hard to catch his dream as a teacher, even as far as declining the offer to be in the national volleyball team and taehyung had never had the heart to see the sad face of his husband.
He couldn't wait to jump into his husband's arms, cuddle him like there was no tomorrow, and tell him how much he had missed him. taehyung wanted to cry because his upcoming heat was such a hassle that he became too clingy right now. he was supposed to stand tall and support his husband and not cower just because he felt lonely. God, he felt so useless right now.
Unfortunately for him, a familiar smell of orange permeated the room, and a mob of blond hair had intruded Taehyung's sight before he could help, earning a squeak as the body hugged him. His sweet best friend must have sensed his distress that he willingly came even though his schedule might be way busier than taehyung himself as he was the only PE teacher in the school. Jimin may look all sunshine and bright, but he hid his exhaustion well; the school needed more teachers.
"taehyungie, what's up?" jimin hugged him tighter. "you've been stressed out over something this week. Penny, for your thoughts?"
"I'm okay, Jiminie, just tired," taehyung reciprocated the hug, making Jimin coo at his adorableness.
"let's grab lunch and rest in our favourite spot, then," Jimin said. By favorite spot, he meant behind the old oak tree in the school's former outworn yard, which hadn't been used. Wild grass thrived, and no one played sports games there anymore, giving the place a nostalgic and peaceful atmosphere that Taehyung and Jimin happily thirsted for solitude.
So that was what they did after grabbing their lunch to dash towards the place, currently childishly fighting for the most comfortable place to sit, which Jimin won over. The elder may be a beta, but he was also a gym rat that he was so ridiculously strong, not that taehyung was complaining (he used to pinch Jimin's biceps when they were still high schoolers but stopped since he already got his hubby, who was double bulked up).
"Taehyungieeee~~ this is sooo nice," Jimin laid his head on top of taehyung's tights. Tae Hyung replied with a hum.
"Jiminie, you must be tired; let me give you some massages," taehyung nudged his best friend into a sitting position and started to massage his shoulders. he used to do this whenever his husband felt tired ever since they were still dating. Doing this made him think about his husband, but he felt less lonely now with Jimin's present. The said beta was currently moaning dirtily under Taehyung's touch. A kinky little shit, indeed.
"Yah! Stop it, dumbass! If Yoongi were to be nearby, he would have had nosebleeds by now."
"As if he has blood flowing inside his pale ghostly body," Jimin pouted, then snickered. "Well, this makes me turn on to imagine he gets nosebleed because of me."
"Ew, disgusting," Taehyung pushed Jimin roughly forward. "I took back everything I said."
Jimin had the guts to cackle as he tackled taehyung to the ground. "You seriously needed to get yourself a boyfriend," taehyung stiffened for a second before playfully tickled his best friend, faking his nervousness. He hadn't told any single soul in the school about his marriage. It's not like he meant to, but as someone easily distracted, taehyung forgot about it. It was a week after their marriage, and he remembered watching lion king with his husband sucking his neck while he told him to organise his new marriage status at the school he worked as he was now jeon taehyung. But who on earth expected him to remember such things when he was being sucked dry by his so-called vampire husband. The school still knew him as Professor Kim, the fairy.
"Hey, Chim... I think you started to lose a few pounds," Taehyung frowned as he circled his friend's waist. "You need to take a break for a while. Working like this is not good for your health."
But Jimin, who usually pouted whenever Taehyung scolded him, suddenly sat up, jumping excitedly as he grabbed both of Taehyung's bony shoulders in a deathly grip. "Tae!! I just remembered that I had to tell you! How stupid am I to be? Dating that old grump makes me get Alzheimer's--" taehyung facepalmed his friend "--there'll be a new PE teacher! I know it's sudden, but I heard he was freshly out from SKY and had just finished training in Japan. He is one of the best teachers in Korea! Oh my God, I heard he is so hot, tae! they said he will arrive now, can't wait to see him--"
wait. SKY? Japan?? PE teachers??? Why did this sound painfully familiar to taehyung????
"He was almost scouted into the national team, but he declined!!"--taehyung choked--" I bet he has a bulky body and is so strong! oh, taetae!!!"
"Wait, wait, yoongi would hate to hear you saying this to someone whom you haven't met yet--"
"I bet he must have been way more handsome than Yoongi!! ARGH and he will be my partner! Finally, I will get a friend to help me kick the butts of those brats--"
"Oh my God, Chim, can you shut up for a second please?" taehyung huffed.
"Ah, I'm sorry..." red coloured Jimin's cheeks adorably, making Tae want to pinch them but resist because his best friend couldn't just oh so kindly spill the deal as soon as possible.
"what's the dude's name? Why haven't I heard this? And to top it off, it's finals week!"
"it's because there were already many schools wanting to scout him in, even universities, but fortunately for us, the headmaster somehow has close relationships with him, so he chose us!"
"Okay, okay..." Wow, who was this guy to have relations with the most prestigious high school's headmaster in South Korea. "You haven't told me his name."
"ah, right! His name is Jon Jeongguk. He is 23 years old and handsome as hell!"
Oh, hell no. taehyung's sweats dropped.
A message popped out from his phone, and Taehyung scrambled to open it. His jaw dropped as he read it.
