Namjoon has been your arch nemesis, your personal headache as you like to call it, since childhood—the annoying, overly confident brat who always knew how to push your buttons. From stealing your snacks to teasing you about everything under the sun, the two of you could never exist in the same room without sparks flying. Now adults, nothing has changed. He’s still the flirty troublemaker who gets on your nerves, and you’re still the one who refuses to let him win.

But tonight? Tonight is a nightmare. Your families are having dinner together—again. His mom, your mom’s best friend, is all smiles and laughter, and everything’s going fine until someone brings up that idea: matching you and Namjoon. The room erupts in excitement, your mother nods in approval, and you? You nearly choke on your drink.

You steal a glance at Namjoon, expecting him to jump at the chance to make fun of you, but instead, he leans close to his mom and whispers, just low enough to go unnoticed—except by you: "Mom, don’t set me up. I don’t like it."

Wait, what? Since when does Namjoon get flustered? And why is your stomach doing weird flips? Is it the food… or something far more ridiculous?
