A/N: I'm a hot mess when it comes to good-looking men with glasses.

Chapter Thirty-Six: Dreams

"If you weren't a Code:Breaker, what would you have been?"

The question caught him by mild surprise, turning his gaze to her seated form beside him.

They had no missions today and had decided to take it easy and relax. They had decided to hang out at their usual spot by the riverbank so he was on his back, admiring the cloudless bright blue sky. The local children were not present, perhaps still at school. The usual sounds of laughter were not resounding in the air, only the faraway sounds of traffic and everyday life.

"That's a random question," he hummed, noting an airplane in the sky.

He could feel her looking at him with a pout. He felt her shifting beside him until her face came into view, blocking his view of the sky.

"Just answer!" She insisted.

He smiled, pushing a few strands of her hair behind her ear.

"Well," he began, mulling over it for a second. "I guess a teacher?"

She lifted an eyebrow at that, looking like she didn't believe him at all.

"Teacher? Are you sure? I feel like you'll just nap all the time…"

"Nap teacher then?" He joked. She laughed at that, playfully bumping his arm with her own.

"Be serious!" She chuckled.

"Hm, I suppose a science teacher then?" He said moments later, playing with her hair by twirling the ends of it with his fingers.

"Would that mean you would wear a lab coat and glasses?" She closed her eyes, tipping her head to the side as she enjoyed the soft breeze. A smile formed on her lips as she imagined him with mentioned outfit. "You would look good in a lab coat and glasses."

He snickered at that, poking her cheek.

"Science teachers aren't required to wear lab coats, you know," he pointed out with amusement, making her pout.

"What about you?" He asked, now curious about what she would have been if they weren't hired assassins. "What do you think would you be had you not joined Eden?"

"Well..." She said, pondering over it. "I would've been my father's successor. So I would've been a CEO."

"Ah, so I wouldn't have a chance to go out with you?" He asked. "You'd probably be matched with some elite man. You would be way out of my league..."

"Yeah, well, that's only if we hadn't met." She laced her fingers with his, giving him the most loving and sincere smile. "But I'm sure, regardless of our different choice of careers, we would crossed paths eventually."
