You set your books and notes down on a table in the empty library. Sejun would join you shortly for your tutoring session. You had been meeting every day after school ended for 7 weeks now, and it had quickly become your favourite event.

You thought it was funny - you used to hate the idea of having to tutor someone. Being responsible for teaching them a concept they already should have learned from the teacher? Having to sit through and explain it to them a million times before they finally get it, cause they're slow? It sounded like torture.

But Sejun wasn't like that. He was smart, quick-witted, funny, and overall pleasant to spend time with. You rarely had to explain something more than once before he got the hang of it. The tutoring sessions were less because he was falling behind, but because he was gone during usual school hours.

He told you that training to debut as a k-pop idol wasn't that demanding, but you could tell it drained him. He sometimes came to tutoring already tired, and you worried he didn't get enough sleep.

You checked the time on your phone again. Today was a tight schedule, as you had to catch a blind date right after the tutoring session. You weren't originally planning for it to be today. And you were nervous to go, but your best friend was determined to get you a boyfriend before the second semester. You'd have to apologise to Sejun for having to end early today.

You spotted his pink hair in the hallway, walking into the library with a dimpled smile. Your mood shot up from just the sight of him. Just normal friend things... You thought, somehow convincing yourself before he came to sit down next to you.

"'Afternoon!" He greeted cheerily.

"Good afternoon." You laughed, flipping open your book and grabbing a pen. "Shall we start?" He nodded eagerly, resting his head on his hand, and looking at you.

You felt a little flustered by his stare today, but you shook it off. It's just Sejun, this is normal.

You began to explain the concepts that you had learned in the class that he had missed last Thursday. You went over the math first, as it was relatively simple to explain and the homework was light for the week.

As you talked, Sejun zoned out a bit. The light from the window behind him shone on your face, lighting it up in the most magical way. He wasn't sure what the special occasion was, but you wore a light yellow dress instead of your casual wear.

He kept tracing a line from your hair down to your neck with his eyes, always finding himself stopping at your lips for a moment, lingering. He had to shut down the thoughts in his head immediately. Don't think about kissing her and make this complicated.

You finished explaining how to do this new way of problem-solving, and handed over a worksheet to Sejun. He had barely heard a word you said, and it took a lot of effort to tear his eyes off your pretty face and to the boring worksheet.

He looked over the problems, realising that he really should have been listening. But, he figured out how to solve them without your helpful instructions, and finished all 15 problems in 20 minutes.

He turned back to you, smiling, "I finished."

You had gotten out your makeup bag to try to touch up your face in time for the blind date. You turned back to him, brush stuck in midair, "Right, let me check over them..." You glanced at the paper, nodding at his neat handwriting and quick, effective solutions to all the problems.

"Perfect. What would you like to do next?" You asked, looking back to your hand mirror for a second, before putting away your makeup brushes and small palette.

"What's the occasion?" He asked, observing you. He'd never even seen you wear makeup, or a dressy outfit during a tutoring session. But today, you adorned both, not helping his struggle to suppress the urge to kiss you.

"I have a blind date after this." You said, "I should've told you before, but we might need to end early today."

"What?" He asked, shocked. His eyes had widened slightly, and he bit the inside of his mouth to try to stop himself from saying what he was about to.

You shrugged, "I don't know, my friend set it up for me. Might as well go? She wants me to get a boyfriend before the second semester, and I don't know anyone else who's going to ask me out."

"Don't go on the blind date." He said suddenly.

"What? Why-"

"Don't go." He said seriously, surprising you. He always had a light, happy air to him, but right now, he seemed dead serious. You gulped, looking back at his dark eyes and matching his stare.

You watched as his eyes stayed on your eyes, then flickered down to your lips, and then he broke eye contact entirely, looking away with a sigh.

"Sejun... Why do you care whether I go on a blind date or not? I know it's not because it's cutting into your tutoring time. You don't care about stuff like that." You said slowly.

"I can't say why." He responded, and you felt more confused than ever. What reason could he possibly have that he couldn't even tell you?

"Then I'm going on the date." You concluded, turning back to your bag.

"I said, don't go." He said desperately, grabbing your wrist. You froze up with the physical contact, turning back to him yet again.

He didn't give you time to say anything before he was moving closer to you, and within an instant, you felt his lips touch yours. Your eyes closed as a response, and your heart pounded in your chest. Lim Sejun? Kissing you?

He pulled back, "If you need to get a boyfriend so badly, at least give me a chance, not some random dude you've never even seen." He whispered, looking away again.

"Do you mean it?" You asked, making him look back at you.

"Why wouldn't I?"

"Just needed to make sure before I do this." You explained, leaning in quickly to press a kiss to his lips. "I won't go on the date. You've convinced me." You smiled at him, eyebrows raising, before you pretended to turn your attention back to your books.

You observed him from the corner of your eyes, fighting back a smile when you saw him blush and smile widely, looking back to his paper.

"You'll be my girlfriend... right?"

You nodded, "'Why wouldn't I?''' You repeated his words from before, making you both giggle softly.

"I'll take you to get ice cream after this is over." He said, giving you a pretty dimpled smile.

"Why isn't it over already, then?" You asked, looking back and forth between him and the textbooks that neither of you were going to study anyway. He smiled cheekily, grabbing the books and putting them back in his bag.

"Let's go." He held out his hand for you, and you took it gingerly, your heart racing in your chest again.
