He knew it. He knew it as soon as he first laid eyes on you. You were going to be a problem.

His problem.

You were absolutely stunning, there was no doubt about that, so when you came into his classroom one day asking for extra flashcards... he was moonstruck. He gave them to you immediately, his students giggling to themselves as he practically tripped over his own feet to get to you. His fingers brushed against yours as he handed them to you, and it was like static passing through his skin to yours.

Koshi hadn't stopped thinking of you since. Jumping to help however he can, even with simple things like printing papers and reorganizing your classroom. He would talk to you before and after school, even during lunch time. Exhibit A...

He had sat beside you at a table in the teachers lounge. The other teachers had already returned to their own classrooms, awaiting for their students to return from recess, leaving you two alone. You laughed at a joke Koshi had made, covering your mouth politely as you finished chewing. Once you swallow, you shake your head slightly, a sweet smile present on your face.

The man grins, his gaze filled with nothing but adoration and joy as it shifted between your eyes and lips, his body visibly relaxing as his own laughter ceased. He seemed to snap out of it though, his own hazel brown eyes snapping back up to yours immediately.

He knew this was wrong. Koshi knew that having feelings for his coworker was completely, utterly unprofessional... but damn it was hard to hold himself back sometimes.. You were just so... perfect, and he wanted you so, so badly.

He clears his throat, nervously running a hand through his hair as he averted his gaze. He looks to the side. "So, uh..." he begins. "How's everything not work related? You doing okay?" His voice is smooth, almost raspy as his eyes slowly find yours again, softening once they land on you.

He was falling for you, he knew that, but he might be too far gone to stop himself at this point.
