Hi everyone, I hope you're doing well!! Holy sHIT THAT COMEBACK IS A WHOLEASS TRIP MAN I STILL HAVEN'T RECOVERED but I'll end my rant before I start it ;) I hope you enjoy this fic!♥

"What the hell even is this?" you wonder aloud, studying the suspicious grey meat in your kebab. "I mean, what did they put in this to make it so delicious?"

Namjoon laughs, taking a bite from his own ten PM snack. It's the same street food you have in your hands, though he seems less wary of it. "That's meat, surprisingly enough," he replies with a grin, looking down at his own food, his cheek bulging. "I believe we ordered lamb."

You lightly elbow him, which only makes him laugh harder. "Stop being such a smartass," you remark, though one glance at his dimples melts away the one ounce of genuine irritation you have in you. "I mean, really, how big is the chance that this is actually one hundred percent lamb?"

He laughs and shakes his head, his eyes lingering on you for one second longer before he turns to stare out the windshield of your van. "I vaguely recall us having this conversation just about five times before," he remarks, fixing his gaze on the warehouse you've been observing over the past few weeks.

You narrow your eyes at him. "That's because you never give me a straight answer," you insist, raising an eyebrow. "Lawyer."

He gasps, eyes widening as he glances at you. "How dare you," he says, though the corners of his lips are twitching. "Insulting me on the job?"

With a grin, you shrug and take the last bite of your kebab, crumpling up the packaging and stuffing it into the cup holder, where it just jumps back to its original shape. You leave it, though, leaning back in your seat with a sigh and sipping on your cup of coffee. "I just can't help it, Joon. Maybe you should stop acting like a lawyer and we'll talk," you reply, diverting your eyes to the warehouse ahead of you.

From the corner of your eye, you spot him looking at you and snorting, though you keep your gaze on the building. At the far end of the street, you can see the car of some of your colleagues, stationed there as backup. "Says the woman that actually dated one."

"Hey, look, dating one is different from working alongside one," you defend, holding up your hands, careful not to spill your coffee. "I'd do it again if the occasion arose."

Silence. He simply raises an eyebrow at you, an amused smile tugging at his lips.

It only takes a second for you to sigh and give in. "Okay, so maybe I'd be... more careful getting into it next time," you admit through a sigh, tearing your eyes away from the view to look at Namjoon. "But still. You never know, you know?"

Namjoon chuckles at your word choice. "Oh, I know."

A smile teasing over your lips, you shrug. "I just don't wanna limit my options. Literally anyone could be dating material," you continue, glancing aside at him before looking back at the warehouse, eyes scanning the view as Namjoon takes a bite of his kebab. "Even you."

Your partner chokes on his food and has to cough frantically to get it out of his windpipe. Once he does, his face has flushed red and there are tears welling up in the corners of his eyes, ones he quickly wipes away.

"What? It was a compliment!"

He laughs, taking a sip from his water, eyes darting around in front of him. His knee is bouncing up and down, you notice. "Sure," he says through more laughter, shaking his head. "'Even you' sounds like the best compliment I've had in years."
