#it's supposed to be set in the same universe as poly minsung but well

Logically speaking, he knows he's being stupid.

He has no reason to feel the way he does. She's nothing more than a friend to him. No, scratch that, they're not even friends, just acquaintances. Forced to be together and get along by circumstances. Sometimes he's sure they don't even like each other.

And yet..

He watches her having fun with the other group. Not surprising, considering she's been working with them too and they're all around her age, so they definitely have a lot to talk about. They make her laugh, they finish each other's references, they don't argue. He doesn't recall seeing her this carefree with him, this relaxed. She's always tense in some way when he's around, like a cat with her claws out and ready to pounce. This shouldn't matter to him, of course, since they're only together for a work project and he doesn't need her company

And yet..

He sees one of them sliding his arms around her shoulders to pull her closer and she chuckles, not bothering to push away. And something in him screeches. His finger clench around his pants when another guy pushes strands of hair out of her face, caressing her cheek in the process, and she just thanks him with a smile. She doesn't seem to the mind the skinship. He feels a pit of anger forming in his gut the the more he watches. Which isn't really different from what he feels on the daily with her, except this time it's directed at those boys. His co-workers, no less.

He has no reason to feel like this. It sounds too much like something that's impossible. He has Jisung, and he knows he loves the boy as much as he did yesterday, and the day before. There's no way he's feeling these things for someone else, a girl with whom he can't spend so much as five minutes in the same room without arguing.

And yet..

He can't stop looking. And the anger grows more into that familiar green that becomes harder to ignore. He feels the urge to scoff as the display, at how friendly she is with others when she hasn't even given him a glance since she arrived. The fucking nerve.

Deep down, he knows he's being stupid, irrational.

And yet...
