Warnings: I'm horrible at writing flirting so tell me if it's bad or good lol
Modern AU
Third Person POV

Davey sits down, laying all of his stuff down.

He was paired, not by choice, on a project with a boy who he never saw stop flirting and was usually in trouble.

Granted, he had also caught feelings for said boy.

He wasn't going to tell him, but he had come to terms with it and decided to just try to keep it calm.

Said boy was named Jack Kelly-Larkin. (The Larkin was added since he didn't want to change his last name, but did want to be legally a Larkin.)

(He's indecisive.
No.
Yes.
No.
Yes.
Stop fighting.)

And he stood in front of him.

"How do you always manage to look so captivating?" Jack Kelly asks with a smirk.

Davey blushes the slightest bit, but decided to channel his inner Katherine. "Big words for you, I didn't know 'captivating' existed in your vocabulary." He comments.

Jack smirks like Davey had just challenged him. "It is if it's describing you." He responds.

Davey felt his face, upper neck, and ears heat up more. That backfired...

Davey sighs. "Please just help me with the project," he requests, sounding helpless. "I'd like to get a good grade."

Jack nods, sitting down in front of Davey. "Are you always this organized?" He asks.

Davey nods. "So, we have to draw pictures and write-" he starts.

"We should draw you since you're so beautiful." Jack cuts him off, smirking.

Davey hated his face for heating up. "I want you to draw visuals of the story, since I suck at drawing." He states. "And I'll do the writing."

"You know what you don't suck at?" Jack asks.

Davey looks up at him, a bit confused.

He noticed the smirk on Jack's face a second too late.

"Stopping my heart." Jack finishes.

Davey blushes, looking away from Jack, who chuckles softly.

He's actually really cute and I hate it.

Davey just stays silent, grabbing his notebook.

He starts writing about the story.

Jack took the hint and got started on the drawing part of the assignment.

Davey tried to keep his eyes on the assignment and his focus there too, but occasionally, his eyes would drift up to look at Jack.

The third time it happened, Jack chuckles. "Am I better to look at than the assignment?" He asks.

Davey blushes, hiding his face behind his notebook. "No." He mutters annoyedly.
