Fics like Built to Last

CEO Alhaitham thought hiring an architect would be a straightforward transaction. Enter: Kaveh. Talented. Infuriating. Beautiful. Suddenly, the design feels more like a demolition - starting with Alhaitham’s carefully structured life. “Hi! Sorry I’m a little late,” Kaveh said breathlessly, bright and unapologetic. “Whoever designed your lobby is an asshole - it’s like a corporate minotaur’s labyrinth. I got lost twice.” “I like the lobby.” “Of course you do,” Kaveh muttered. Kaveh was exactly as troublesome as his work. Everything about him was too golden, too confident, too alive for a room full of grayscale - hair like a decadent brushstroke, hands that moved as if drawing invisible lines in the air with every careless gesture. In other words, a man who made space bend around him. “Our meeting began two minutes ago,” Alhaitham said flatly. “Though I suppose I should have anticipated that you’d be the kind of person to make an entrance.” Kaveh simply smiled, sharp and sunlit. “And I suppose I should’ve anticipated that you’re the kind of person who’s profoundly bothered by two minutes of tardiness.”
