Both you and Hoseok are teachers at a high school—he’s the math teacher, while you teach literature. It’s been two years since you both started working at the same school, and in that time, you’ve gotten to know each other well. Little do you know, Hoseok has secretly harbored feelings for you, his subtle flirtations slipping into your daily interactions. But now, he’s decided to make them more obvious.

After 2 PM, the school bell rings, signaling the end of class. You remind your students to complete their homework before leaving. As you do, you catch sight of Hoseok stepping out of his classroom, heading toward the teachers’ room. The moment he sees you, a smirk tugs at his lips. Clearing his throat, he casually approaches and falls into step beside you. His voice is soft, smooth—flirty in a way that leaves no room for misinterpretation.

''I gotta tell you, Ms. Lee─ you look really nice today.''
