y/n was waiting for Namjoon to pick her up for their first date. She had spent several hours stressing over what to wear. She finally settled on a simple jean overall type dress that landed just above her knees. She wore a gray tshirt underneath, and her favorite pair of white converse with it.

*flashback*

She and Namjoon met last week at the library. She was intently reading her book when she heard a deep voice next to her.

"Good choice. That's one of my favorite books."

She looked up to see a very handsome man looking down at her. Like, seriously. He was probably the most gorgeous man she had ever laid her eyes on. He was tall, had dark brown eyes, his hair was the color of rich honey, and he wore a pair of glasses similar to her own.

"Y-yeah, it's my favorite too. This is actually my third time reading it." - she said, feeling her cheeks heat up.

"Well I'm afraid I've got you beat. I've read it four times." - he replied, smiling jokingly down at her.

She responded with a small smile of her own.

That was how it all began. They swapped phone numbers, and have been in contact ever since. He finally asked her out on a proper date last night. She very eagerly accepted.

*back to present*

She was pacing around her living room waiting for him to get there. She finally heard the doorbell ring. She straightened her outfit one last time, and opened the door to see a smiling Namjoon.

"Wow. You look beautiful." - he told her.

She looked down, feeling her cheeks heat up at his words.

"Thank you. You dont look too bad yourself." - she said, smiling sheepishly.

He chuckled slightly. "Well, should we get going?"

"Yeah let's go."

They got into his car and drove off. The car ride was filled with a slightly awkward silence. (like awkward siiiilence... Stray Kids anyone? No? ok nvm)

"So," y/n started. "Where exactly are we going?"

"Well I thought since you seem to be an art lover as well, we could go down to the Smithsonian, if that's ok?" - Namjoon responded.

"That actually sounds really nice. I haven't been there since I was 8. I'd love to see what has changed since then." - she smiled over at him. He returned the same shy smile.

*time skip to the museum*

The 2 of them were walking along, admiring the variety of pieces in the museum, until y/n stopped dead in her tracks. One piece in particular caught y/n's eye. She was enthralled by its beauty.

"Wow." - she whispered under her breath.

Namjoon looked down at her. She was fully captivated by this new art piece. He could see the sparkles in her eyes. "Isnt it breathtaking? Its called 'Wonder.' It was created by 9 incredible artists. They came together using several different materials and techniques. Together, they were able to create this masterpiece. What's special about it is that it's only on display for 3 months. So only a few people will get to experience its beauty."

"I-its amazing. All the colors are woven together so meticulously. It looks too beautiful to even be real." - she said in awe. She then looked up at Namjoon, her eyes sparkling with joy. "Thank you for bringing me here. Its incredible."

At that moment, Namjoon wasnt sure what was more beautiful - the girl standing next to him, or the skillfully created art exhibit. All he knew was that he had never been happier.

The 2 of them eventually moved on to look at other displays, slowly moving closer together with every step, until their hands tentatively reached for each others. This night was the first of many dates, and it ended all too soon for the 2 of them. This night was the beginning of forever.
