As Taehyung strolled through the corridors of the university campus, an air of excitement mingled with the nervous anticipation of being in a new environment.

As unfamiliarity with the layout loomed, he sought assistance, his eyes scanning the bustling crowd for a friendly face.

Amidst the throng, a figure caught his attention-a boy with an aura of approachability, engrossed in a book. With a determined stride, Taehyung approached him, tapping his shoulder gently to garner his attention.

The boy glanced up, his expression shifting from concentration to curiosity as Taehyung posed his query, "Excuse me, could you help me find the principal's office?"

With a warm smile, he replied, "Sure, I can help you find the principal's office. Follow me."

Grateful for the assistance, Taehyung introduced himself, the exchange of pleasantries paving the way for a budding camaraderie.

As they traversed the corridors together, the boy, identified as Jimin, shared insights into the university and their shared academic pursuits.

Arriving at their destination, Taehyung was met with a cordial welcome by the principal. The exchange of pleasantries and the presentation of his ID card marked the beginning of his journey at the university.

Stepping out of the principal's office, Taehyung found Jimin waiting by the basketball court, as promised.

The rhythmic thud of basketballs echoed in the background, drawing Taehyung's attention to the players on the court.

Among them, one player stood out-a dynamic presence with a commanding presence on the court.

Taehyung found himself captivated by the player's skill and charisma, his heart quickening with admiration.

As the match reached its climax, Taehyung's gaze remained fixed on the enigmatic player, oblivious to Jimin's presence beside him.

It was only when Jimin nudged him gently that Taehyung tore his gaze away, joining him in cheering for the players.

When the match ended in defeat, Taehyung couldn't resist offering some advice. He seized the opportunity to offer some unsolicited advice to the player, Jungkook.

Though initially aloof, Jungkook's demeanor softened as he considered Taehyung's suggestions, a flicker of intrigue sparking between them.

As Jungkook led his team to victory in the subsequent match, Taehyung watched with admiration, a newfound respect blossoming for the talented athlete.

Jungkook's grateful nod towards Taehyung at the end of the match ignited a sense of connection between them, their paths intertwining in unexpected ways.

As Jungkook made his way towards the bench, Taehyung felt a surge of determination to prolong their conversation.

Rising from his seat, he cast a glance towards Jimin, who was engaged in an affectionate embrace with a player from the opposing team.

A tender kiss planted on Jimin's forehead affirmed their closeness, leading Taehyung to speculate that they were indeed a couple.

Respecting their moment, Taehyung opted not to interrupt, instead redirecting his steps towards Jungkook. With each stride, his resolve to engage further with the enigmatic basketball player grew stronger.

Eager to prolong their interaction, Taehyung approached Jungkook with a friendly smile, extending his hand in greeting. "Taehyung, Kim Taehyung! I joined today only, and my department is Business Administration." He introduced himself, hoping to break the ice.

Jungkook, however, remained aloof, simply stating, "Jungkook... Jeon Jungkook," without meeting Taehyung's gaze.

Undeterred by the lack of reciprocation, Taehyung withdrew his hand, offering a polite compliment, "Nice name," before allowing the conversation to lapse into silence.

Suddenly, a clatter disrupted the quietude as Jungkook's bottle slipped from his grasp. Reacting swiftly, Taehyung intercepted the falling object, their fingers brushing briefly in the process, sending a jolt of electricity through them both.

As Taehyung returned the bottle to Jungkook, their eyes met, the shared moment lingering in the air. Seizing the opportunity to engage, Jungkook inquired, "Do you also play basketball?"

With a nod of affirmation, Taehyung confirmed his interest. Jungkook, seizing upon the budding connection, extended an invitation, "So, do you want to join the basketball team?"

Taehyung's eyes lit up with enthusiasm. "Yeah, definitely, if I get a chance," he replied eagerly. Jungkook then divulged details about the upcoming basketball competition and the trials for the final team, scheduled for the following day.

Expressing gratitude for the valuable information, Taehyung watched as Jungkook nodded farewell, offering a parting wish, "All the best."

Before Taehyung could respond, Jungkook dashed off, leaving Taehyung with a mix of excitement and anticipation for the opportunities that lay ahead.

As they parted ways, Taehyung couldn't help but smile at his endearing demeanor. Joined by Jimin, Taehyung embarked on his journey into the campus, thoughts lingering on the intriguing encounter with his "Bunny Boy."
