🔥 Mood: No more trauma—just healing, bickering, blushing, and kisses that fix everything

---

Sea sat in class, quietly taking notes... or pretending to. His eyes kept flicking toward the door, heartbeat tapping out an impatient rhythm. Boss hadn't shown up this morning.

> "He said he had business," Sea muttered under his breath, pouting a little. "Business my ass."

Right then, the door creaked open.

And in walked a pretty transfer student.

The whole room froze. Every single girl (and some boys) stared wide-eyed. She was tall, stylish, with sparkly earrings and a confidence that screamed main character energy.

> "Hi, I'm Jiwoo. I just transferred. I hope we all get along~" she smiled like a damn K-drama lead.

The teacher introduced her, and the only seat left was—of course—next to Sea.

> "You're Sea, right?" she whispered, giggling.

"Unfortunately," Sea replied flatly, eyes narrowing.

Meanwhile...

Downstairs, Boss stormed into the school unannounced. In a black turtleneck, boots, and sunglasses, looking like a walking scandal.

> "What class is Sea in?" he asked the front desk lady.

She blinked. "Sir, who—?"

> "Sea. My boyfriend."

"Sir this is a school—"

"Then call the principal."

Ten minutes later, the door to Sea's class burst open.

Boss stepped in like a storm.

> "Sea. We need to talk." Sea blinked. "...Boss?" Jiwoo turned. "Oh? Is this your—" "Out of my seat." Boss snapped at her.

Chaos.

Later… in the kitchen

Boss had been acting way too smug since he dragged Sea out of class. So to pay him back, Sea insisted they make dinner together.

It went well… until it didn't.

> "Babe, this pan is on fire."

"You were supposed to watch it!"

"Why is the rice crunchy??"

"You said high heat!"

"This pasta is cursed—"

Eventually they gave up and ordered food.

But they ate together, sitting close, feeding each other fries. Boss kissed tomato sauce off Sea's cheek and muttered:

> "You're still mad?"

"Maybe."

"Want me to mark you in front of your whole school tomorrow?"

"...BOSS."

"I'm just saying. You get cute when you're jealous."
