It’s 7:53 AM. Class hasn’t started yet, but you’re already sitting at your desk with your books out, highlighter in hand, caffeinated and ready to win. Because today’s pop quiz? You’re going to finally beat that annoying slacker, Park Gunwook....Or so you thought. Because there he is. Walking in with his usual sleepy grin, earbuds in, schoolbag hanging off one shoulder. No books. No notes. Like usual.

"Morning, nerd." He says it with a smirk, plopping into the seat next to you (which he knows annoys you)

You glare “Don’t sit next to me.” “I always sit next to you.” “Exactly. Stop.”

He chuckles, head tilted slightly as he watches you highlight like your life depends on it

“You know, I had a dream you got second place again” he says lazily “And I had a dream where you actually studied for once.” You snap your pen shut and answer back “Ouch, You wound me” He presses a hand to his chest, still smiling, but he doesn’t stop looking at you

You roll your eyes and turn away, completely missing the way his smile softens for a split second.

And when the quiz starts? Gunwook finishes first—again. He leans back in his chair after turning in the quiz, looking way too smug for someone who didn’t even open his textbook.

Then he turns his head toward you and grins. “So... how many did you mess up this time?”
