here's a small thing to celebrate Dr ratio. i don't think i mentioned any gendered pronouns for reader. reader is said to be a professor though. that's it! enjoy!

it's a known fact Dr veritas ratio wears an alabaster head so as to not be exposed to idiots. anyone who he interacts with while not wearing it is considered to be extremely lucky and smart. sadly that was not the case for you. despite knowing him for a long time, he never graced you the pleasure of seeing his actual face. you asked yourself why a lot of times. did he find you stupid? no, he usually attends your lectures and chooses works with you whenever he needs someone. you just brushed it off as your friend being a bit of weird guy.

oh, but how could you ever guess the true reason of him never taking his sculpted accessory. beneath the cool and calm looking stone face is hidden his blushing face. he can't bear to let you see him looking so unpresentable. no, absolutely not. never in his life would he let someone he holds in such high esteem see him looking like a fool. god forbid, if you also find out that you were his inspiration. his face will combust. he can't look at you without seeming like the fool in love he is. so until he's finally ready to confess, get used to the alabaster head.

i am barely surviving. i am barely holding on. the itch grows every day. i am dying. my lungs are filled with thorns that expand and wrap around my heart. they're squeezing tighter and tighter each second. the voices whisper in my head to convince me to give into temptation. though no matter what they say, they all quiet down at the sight of him.

imagine Jing yuan interrogating you. he gets told that you're scared of felines and decides to bring mimi. but oh, how wrong he was. the lion adores you. the moment it steps inside the interrogation room, it's rubbing itself against your legs. you're no better. you're playing with the lion like it was a house cat. it was impossible to deny though, the scene was adorable. it warmed the general's heart a bit and if someone looked closely, they could see his lips curling up into a smile.

"did you get an offer for the live action of a silent voice?"

"yes but I had to refuse because I had already agreed for doing 'the proposal'."

"really?"

"yes why?"

"..."

"you did the same thing, didn't you?"

"you're gonna be the death of me. didn't we agree on not doing two film together in a row?" you say looking at the man who's still reading. "we'll just have to do three then," he replies not looking up. "stop joking, you ass-" "i'm not joking. we can just say that our companies are entering in a collaboration and chose us to represent it." "but that's fake" "you could ask your manager since clearly you find it a problem," he said and you sighed. you pull out your phone and text your manager.

alhaitham looked outside and saw that the car was nearing his house. "did the driver forget you're here?" he asked and you just smiled at him in response. "[name]. what's going on?" he asked squinting his eyes at you. his phone then vibrates and lights up. he checks the notification and sees a message from his manager. he can feel the color draining from his face as he reads the text.

hello alhaitham,

I've been contacted by one of your co-stars' company after you told them that you'd like to film more movies with [name]. I'm really glad that you're getting along well. we're currently talking about making a collaboration with their company. we will most likely announce it after the filming of your next movie. whole we are discussing the terms, she'll be staying at your house.

"i've got to be dreaming," he said looking at you who was now playing with his cat. "you dream about me being your roommate? I'm flattered," you tease. "i already have one headache called kaveh. I don't need another one." "don't call kaveh a headache. he's a sweet guy unlike you." "of course you'd think that," he rolled his eyes. "meow twice if you want me to live with your dad, alhaitham jr" you say still playing with the cat. he meows twice and alhaitham groans. of course you'd use his own cat against him. the driver parks the limousine and you both get out.

alhaitham didn't have too many people working in his villa and he liked it like that. you take out your suitcase and go inside without waiting for alhaitham. you knew his house by heart since you usually went to visit kaveh. you even had an unofficial room there. "where's kaveh?" you asked alhaitham as he entered inside. "fortunately for me, he's filming abroad," he said. "he's gonna miss on some fun," you mutter and alhaitham looks at skeptically. you shoot him an innocent smile and say, "nothing much since you're such a boring person." he just scoffs and goes to his room.

the next time he comes back out is for dinner. "and here is a rare species called alhaitham in his natural habitat," you say while recording him walking downstairs. "this species is almost extinct because no one wants to be with him," you laugh and he takes your phone away from you as he continues to walk towards the dining room. "hey! give it back!" you shout running after him. "you want it? take it," he says placing it on a very high shelf. "i'll get you back for that," you say trying to find a way to get up. "sure you will," he says amused. you then decide to climb on a chair to get it.

"what's for dinner?" "whatever the cook made." "can't you cook for yourself?" "why do you want to taste food made by me?" "you'd probably poison it." "i would," he said. you both had a quiet dinner. alhaitham thought you were being too quiet. "what are you planning?" he asked. you gasp as if offended, "me? planning something? when do I ever do stuff like that?" you bat your lashes at him and he scoffs. you laugh, "I'm just thinking about the next movie. I'm not up to anything." "that's uncharacteristically responsible of you." "rude. I should hide put traps in your library for that," you joke. he rolls his eyes. "you better not. I'll stop you from seeing my cat if you do." "alright, I promise to not mess with your library," you say. you do end up keeping your promise and messing with him in another way.

i totally did not forget about this. i promise.

chapter 1

if anyone had asked al haitham how he sees you, he would have complimented your talents like any normal friend. if you had asked, he'd say you were annoying and mischievous. if he had himself, he'd deny that he might have a crush on you. even if he did, that was his problem and no one else.

you two usually worked together. most directors and producers found you two to be a great duo. you and al haitham did bicker in private but outside? really it isn't surprising you guys are top actors with how you fake being friends anytime in public. fans loved you both and also shipped you a lot. you weren't just shipped with al haitham but that was one of the most popular ones. the chemistry you both had on screen and in public made people go a bit too crazy sometimes.

you didn't hate al haitham. sure, his blunt words and way better than you attitude were annoying, but you didn't hate him for that. it only made you more determined to get close to him and see what hides underneath his facade. he was your 'rival' as he proclaimed. did that stop you from flirting with him? no. did that stop you from popping up at his house out of nowhere? no. did that stop you from flustering him? no. every reaction that he gave, you'd happily burn into your mind. he was your rival, yes but, he was also your biggest source of amusement.

you were both currently on set at the moment. it was a movie about a hero who worked alongside a villain to achieve a goal and the two fall in love. you were filming your last scene. you, the villain, in the arms of the hero and bleeding to your death. "i am so so sorry," al haitham, the hero, sobbed over your dying frame. "somewhat, I was expecting for this to happen," you laughed bitterly. "i'm sorry. i- there was no other choices," he continues. "love, there's always a choice. just like i chose to let you win because I was a fool in love," you chuckled. he sobbed harder and you kissed him through his tears. when you let go, you smiled and whispered, "i hope this haunts you for the rest of your life." he felt you go limp and broke down, crying and mourning the one he loved.

"and cut!" you both heard. you wiped one of al haitham's fake tears and whispered to him, "are you going to cry like this when i'm gone too?" you could feel his smirk through his words as he whispered back, "using fake tears? of course, it'll be suspicious if they see me laughing." you laughed at his reply. to most it may look like you both were flirting with each other. with the pose you guys were in and the laughter that came from you, you can definitely feel someone take a photo. you don't really care about it either way.

al haitham had a few more scenes to shoot today before the wrapping up of filming. after a few hours, you were both free to go. you both went home together. why? simply because you wanted to annoy him. you also loved his cat. it had gray fur and green eyes. unlike his owner, haitham jr was such an angel. "haitham jr!" you say as you get inside the limousine and the cat makes its way into your arms. "that's not his name," al haitham replied pulling out a book. "you're just jealous he likes me better," you teased and the cat purred as if to prove your point. al haitham scoffed not even looking at you. you pulled out your phone and took a photo of the three of you and posted it on your socials. "what was that for?" he asked. "to get the fans excited," you said. at some point, haitham jr went to sit in al haitham's lap and the man smirked at you. you gasp dramatically at the ball of fur's betrayal.

"did you get an offer for the live action of a silent voice?"

"yes but I had to refuse because I had already agreed for doing 'the proposal'."

"really?"

"yes, why?"

"..."

"you did the same thing didn't you?"

in which you and al haitham are both really famous actors. two colleagues who work really well together. the fans love your on-screen chemistry, but is it the same off screen?
