with @msudotty in the suseong common room
despite it seeming like a regular day, it's really not with the way that taejun is drifting around barely aware of the people he's come across in the hallways. his smile is a little wider, a little brighter, and a little more cheerful than it usually is. of course, he has every reason to be beaming the way he is now that he's official with eloise. ever since the grad geumseong student had confirmed her feelings for him and her that night at the costume party taejun has been floating on cloud nine.
he's just finished his last class of the day and entered the suseong common room when he spots dotty sitting on one of the couches. considering that she's alone and doesn't seem like she's waiting on anyone, taejun makes his way over before plopping down onto the spot next to her. he drops his bag down in-between his legs before turning to look at her with a perky grin.
"are you busy right now dotty?" taejun asks despite the fact that he's probably going to ask her to listen to him anyway.
taejun knew that his relationship with dotty was a unique one considering how long the two had known each other and why. with the way the two interacted - as one of taejun's good friends - he knew that many weren't aware of the fact that the two had actually dated years ago back in their hogwarts days. in fact, dotty had actually been his first official relationship in his young inexperienced teen years.
dotty had been great with him throughout the entire relationship and although it obviously didn't end up lasting the two had remained as friends simply because dotty still wanted to be his friend afterwards. despite the fact that it had been dotty to break up with taejun, he never held any hard feelings for her seeing as there wasn't much he could offer her as inexperienced as he was. after getting through the break-up period though, the two really did hit it off well as friends and even grew to be able to talk openly about their relationships with each other. of course, much more of it being dotty's different escapades with the guys she met.
so taejun knew that dotty was one of the few friends he could go to about his relationship without any judgement with how excited he was about it.
"i have some exciting news to share." he states with a small dance to show off how ecstatic he is.
