Boyeong sat in the library, holding the cups of tea, making sure they didn't spill.
They had made this a habit; whoever was here first would buy tea for the both of them.
Boyeong always bought snacks, lying and saying she had found them at home.
Namjoon was a genius, but he seemed to not notice her flimsy excuses.
It was a good way to keep the competitive attitude; though truly Boyeong did it to see Namjoon's happiness when they ate.
It almost felt like a date, though both would deny it if anyone asked.
It was strictly professional, even if they did tend to veer off topic of school and argue about random things.
Strictly professional, even when they would tease each other and insult the other.
Strictly professional, even when they would leave the library and roam the city.
Strictly professional, even when Namjoon offered his arm to keep Boyeong safely close by him.
Strictly professional, though Boyeong's heart beat faster every time Namjoon smiled at her.
Strictly professional, even when they shared an umbrella, or a scarf, or a coat, when the weather was less than sunny.
Strictly professional. Absolutely, positively professional.
Boyeong seemed to be lying a lot lately.
