Summary: Your literature professor has a bit of aâŚgift. A gift that letâs him see other peoples thoughts when he wants to. And despite the fact that he warns his class openly about this gift, one day you forget, and find yourself in a bit of pickle when Kim Seokjin reads your mind, and finds you imagining some not so school appropriate scenariosâŚinvolving him.
A/N: Iâve been in such a writing slump the last few months Iâm so sorry lol. I feel bad bc I rarely put out fics nowadays, but after starting this over a week ago I finally managed to get it done!! I wanted to write a fic with Jin because I havenât written one staring him in likeâŚa year.
Anyway!! I hope you all enjoy!
Youâve known for a while that your literature professor isâŚgifted. Itâs not entirely rare, but itâs not common either. Over time humans have developed special traits. Only 1 in 100 people are born with some type of unique ability, and thus far not many have attempted to use their ability for evil, so the âgiftedâ individuals blend in with the rest normally. In fact, most gifted individuals tend to keep their abilities to themselves, wanting to fit in, scared of being ostracized. Of course, this trend doesnât apply to everyoneâand certainly not your literature professor, Kim Seokjin.
A 4.8 rating online, heâs known for interesting lectures and his daring good looks. Heâs new to the university, but despite only being here 2 years heâs got over 30 positive reviews. So, you sign up for his class. You never care about how attractive your professors areâyouâre here to learn, and thatâs that. At leastâŚthatâs what you tell yourself until you see Kim Seokjin on the first day of class.
Heâs youngâbaffling young compared to the middle age professors you always seem to have. His shoulders are broadâhis black dress shirt stretched perfectly across his chest, the top button struggling to hang on. A pair of round rim glasses rest on his nose, slipping farther down when he smiles, and his plush pink lips are enviable.
The lecture hall hushes as he sets his bag down at the desk near the projector. As he bends down to retrieve his materials his dark brown hair dangles into his eyes, and he cutely huffs it out of the way.
Your heart palpitates, and you lean sideways in your seat, peeking around the head of the girl in front of you. With the new angle, you catch an eyeful of your professorâs ass, hugged by his dark slacks.
FuckâŚyou swallow. He really is attractive. Too attractive.
This is dangerous. In fact, itâs more dangerous than you know.
Kim Seokjin coughs, turning to address the class, and any chatter that had started immediately dies. He smiles again.
âHello all. Iâm Professor Kim Seokjin, and Iâll be teaching this class for the next 4 months. Iâm sure weâll all get along just fine. HoweverâŚI suppose I should address the elephant in the room before we get into the core syllabus material.â
You frown. What elephant in the room�
Seokjin sighs. âYes, Iâm a mind reader.â
Oh. Your eyes go wide, cheeks flushing as you recall the unadulterated thirsting youâd done just a minute before. Fuck.
âNo, Iâm not reading your minds right now. I only read minds when I choose to, and trust meââ he smiles wider, eyes creasing pleasantly, but you can sense that this smile holds some sort ofâŚthreat.
ââif I choose to read your mind, you shouldnât feel honored. It means that Iâve caught you slacking off in my class. Daydreaming, napping, textingâIâm not scared to let your peers know what youâve got on your mind.â
His head tilts to the side, a quiet laugh slipping past his lips, and a few of the people around you visibly pale. You, yourself, find a lump caught in your throat, anxiety rising to the surface. At 21 years of age you know damn well that you have a terrible habit of daydreaming during lectures.
âPlease keep that in mind as this class progresses, alright? I donât intend this to be a threat, but more as a gentle motivator for you to pay attention in my class. I like to think my lectures are interesting, and youâre paying all this money for a degree, arenât you?â
A wave of quiet laughter sweeps across the room, the mood lightening, and Seokjin nods, pleased.
He starts up the sizable screen at the head of the room, pulls up the syllabus, and begins reviewing it with you all.
You follow along dutifully, sneaking prolonged glances at his handsome face and keep his warning tucked away at the back of your mind.
Pay attentionâyou have to.
A month in, you realize doing such a thing is easier said than done. And the other students must feel the same.
Despite your professor calling out someone in nearly every one of his classes, you find your concentration slipping.
In the fourth class, he calls out the girl in the corner, swiping through her Instagram feed beneath her table, thinking that he wonât notice sheâs looking at her lap and not at the PowerPoint on screen. He tells the whole class how sheâs thinking about her date with a frat boy on Sundayâabout how sheâs debating what to wearâand informs her that if sheâs so concerned about her outfit, she should just skip his class and stay home to figure it out.
Two classes later, he calls out a guy in the back row who hasnât looked up from his laptop the entire class, internet shopping for a new pair of kicks. Expensive ones. And tells him that if he knows he canât afford them, maybe heâd be better off paying attention in a class heâs paying for, so he can earn a higher salary in the future.
Each time Kim Seokjin calls out a student, you find yourself both terrified and amazed. If that happens to you, youâre not sure what youâll doâdrop out of school maybe, butâŚat the same time you get a strange thrill from watching him use his ability. His eyes flash, emotions washing across his face as the thoughts of his target flood into his mind. You can see when he does it, his eyebrows furrowing slightly, his lips pressing together. The emotions that show on his face vary on his level of annoyance, and his surprise towards what his target is thinking. And itâsâŚsomewhat mesmerizing.
You canât help yourself from thinking about him. Whenever you walk into his class and see him standing at the front of the room, as kind and as handsome as ever, your mind wanders. At first you wonder if heâs married, or at least is dating someone. Heâs only 25, barely older than any of you, and, hell, probably younger than some, but with a face like that itâd be impossible for him not to be seeing someone, right?
Like this, your daydreaming about Kim Seokjin starts out innocent enough. You wonder about his past, and his hobbies. What was he like in college? Was he top of his class? Did he get the girls?
Luckily, youâre pretty self-aware, and manage to pull out of your daydreaming when you begin to fall too far from reality. When you daydream, your professorâs voice simply becoming background noise, your hand moves on autopilot. If it werenât for your ability to multitask in classâbrought on by over 10 years of schoolingâyouâre sure you wouldâve been caught by now. After all, since the first day youâve always been right in his line of sightâmiddle section, second row, seat on the far left. Youâre not directly in front of him, the lecture podium a good 20 feet over, but youâre not protected by rows of other students either.
Youâre vulnerable, yet proficient at faking your attention.
At leastâŚuntil the second month.
At the start of the second month of Kim Seokjinâs class, you step into the lecture hall in aâŚmood.
Youâre not quite sure how you feelâŚa little giddy, a little tired, and a littleâŚneedy.
Sliding into your seat, you pull out your notebook and pencil, mind already wandering and thighs already rubbing together.
You imagine a pair hands on youâslipping under your shirt, tugging off your bra. You imagine palms cupping your breasts possessively, soft lips enclosing around your nipple. And when your professor walks into the room, on time as always, you see his handsome face and stunning body and you imagine that the person whoâs making you bend and moan in your fantasy isâŚhim.
Kim Seokjin, your 25 year old literature professor, who reads minds.
On this day, you forget about that last part.
Seokjin starts his lecture, but you donât hear a single word he says. You watch him as he moves around, noting the way his shirt hugs his formâtight around his chest but loose at the bottom. When he poses a hand on his waist, you note how thin he is despite his broad shoulders, and you imagine sitting on his lap, popping open the buttons on his shirt one by one, until itâs sliding off his shoulders. You fantasize about running your hands down his smooth chest, leaving light nail marks in your wake.
You assume heâd shiver, head lolling back, throat bobbing as you sneak your hand beneath the waistband of his slacks, palming at his thick erection. Youâd keep him wanting more, teasing his cock through the thin fabric, testing how far you can push him before he snaps. And when he does, you bet heâd turn the tables, pining you down and teasing you right back.
Youâre not sure what kinks he has, but you can picture him being light bondage, denial, overstim, spankingâŚ
âHey,â someone whispers, and thereâs a tap on your thigh. Blinking, you look to the male sitting next to you, and his face looks a little scared. He angles his head to the side, and you look past him, color blooming on you face and chest as you notice that Kim Seokjin, the man youâd just been fantasizing about, is staring right at you.
Your jaw goes slack, heart jolting against your ribs as embarrassment and horror floods into you.
You can tell by the shocked look on his face and redness of his ears thatâŚheâd just read your mind. While youâd been thinking aboutâŚhim andâŚkinksâŚandâŚ
The class is deathly silent now, looking to your professor expectantly. Itâs clear to everyone that heâs read your mindâhe only pauses this long in his lecturing when heâs preparing to call someone out. HoweverâŚafter a few seconds, Seokjin coughs, and retreats to his desk.
âPlease pay attention to the lecture.â
You nod your headâbaffled, relieved, and unimaginably embarrassedâand then look down at your blank notes. A murmur passes through the lecture hall, and you can only guess that your classmates are now wondering what the hell youâd been thinking in order for your professor to have refrained from outing you.
Youâre the first person heâs left speechlessâŚbecause youâd been fantasizing about having sex with your professor.
Keeping your head down, you find yourself unable to look up the remainder of class. And when the hour is over, students shuffling out of the lecture hall, you quickly shove your notes into your bag and make for the door. However, when you standâdaring to look up for the first time in 40 minutesâyou find Kim Seokjin standing right before you, 2 rows down. His eyes meet yours, and you freeze, worry and embarrassment inhibiting your movements.
âIâŚ,â is all you manage to say, cheeks heating up, before your lips press shut. Seokjin narrows his eyes at you, curious, and when he breaks eye contact, his gaze methodically raking down your body, heat pulses in your gut. His actions, and the reaction that had occurred because of them, makes you both terrified and excited at the same time.
Yet, right now, persisting embarrassment wins over, and after meeting his stare one last time, you turn and hurry out room.
Youâre pretty sure youâll never be able to attend his class again.
