    Summary

    “They already think we’re together,” Kaveh points out, as if this is something normal people say in daylight. “The rumors are unstoppable. Have you seen what they’re writing on the public notice boards? I’m practically a martyr. You're some kind of cold-blooded dom in everyone’s mind—”

    Alhaitham blinks. “A what.”

    Kaveh waves his hand. “Never mind, the point is: they think we’re dating. Or hate-dating. Or secretly engaged in some kind of enemies-to-lovers slow-burn death match.”

    Alhaitham cannot believe this is a sentence that has occurred. In his kitchen.

    “They think we’re in love,” Kaveh concludes, triumphant and slightly breathless. “And you know what that means?”

    Alhaitham stares. “That Sumeru needs better education policy.”

    “That means,” Kaveh says, undeterred, “we can get ahead of it. Control the narrative. Pretend to be a couple. Just for a little while. Just to throw them off.”

    Or, Alhaitham and Kaveh decide to fake a relationship, and the feelings never stop being real.

    Summary

    Five times Kaveh and Alhaitham almost kissed because of architecture, academia, or Alhaitham's naked torso (involving orange slices as aesthetic insult, hallway negotiations of physical boundaries, furniture-based foreplay, domestic symbolisms disguised as dinner, and academic proximity crimes). And one time, finally, they stopped almost-ing—and kissed.
