Remain calm. When your boss approaches, give your boyfriend a wink and subtle nudge in the ribs, then conduct the conversation with your boss in a normal fashion. Get out your solar powered calculator and show it to your boss to impress him and win extra points. Introduce your boyfriend to your boss to impress the boss with your manners, and win extra points.
After your boss leaves, explain (in a low voice, while looking carefully around) to your boyfriend that you are in deep cover, on the trail of a mighty drug lord who is laundering money through the accounting firm. Explain that your boss is an innocent who knows nothing of the crime that his higher-ups are involved in, and that you are trying to protect your boss from harm while getting the goods on the bad guys.
Show your boyfriend your Junior Spy kit. When he remarks that your equipment seems a bit, well, juvenile, open your shirt and show him your grown-up equipment. Every thought in his head will immediately blow away and you will never have this conversation again.
You win.
