Tae POV

I woke up to Jungkook kissing along my jaw and telling me to wake up, I smiled wide as I nuzzled my face into the pillow "mmmm no. I wanna sleep"

"Come on, wake up. I have a surprise for you but we need to get moving"

"A surprise?" I raised my eyebrow and opened one eye to look at him, he chuckled and nodded his head before leaning down and kissing my lips "What kind of surprise?"

"A damn good one" he laughed "come on baby, let's go" there goes my heart doing that thing again. It needs to stop. How can I turn that feature off in my brain? I wish I was half computer so I could just switch it off. Find him unattractive, find him gross, find him unappealing. I can't though. It's enough that we're as close as we are, we can't get closer. 

This is going to bite me in the ass. I can feel it. 

I can at least enjoy the ride right? Stop fighting it, let it flow, and see where it goes? He isn't Namjoon. No. He's much better. He's everything. He deserves the world.

Okay, no making moves, no trying to form a tighter bond, no falling for it, no boyfriend business outside of the contract, but less running from it. Less fighting it, and just try to enjoy what it is. That works right? That way, when the contract ends, and he leaves, I’m not broken all over again. 

We sat and ate breakfast at the table together 

“Can I have a hint?”

“Nope” he shook his head “The only thing I’ll say is to dress formal, casual. No suits, but look good” 

“Excuse you? I always look good” I scoffed playfully making him laugh

“Yes, yes you do. But, we don’t want to be overdressed or underdressed, so let’s play it safe” 

“Fine” I rolled my eyes 

Once we were dressed up, he grabbed my car keys and ushered me out to the car, opening my door for me and then rushing to get behind the wheel after he shut the door for me. I kept my hands in my lap, trying not to reach out for him and hold his hand in mine like I have been, it’s become a habit to hold his hand all day everyday, I didn’t even realize I was doing it so much, until I woke up with my hand on his like I was even trying to hold his hand in my sleep. I can’t have that. But, he reached for my hand instead. He intertwined our fingers and let them rest on my thigh as he smiled and continued focusing on the road. Either he’s as used to it as I am, or he thinks that I need to hold his hand. There’s no way he actually wants to hold my hand, as much as I want to hold his. But I’ll take it. 

 “Here we are” he announced as he pulled into the parking lot of the college of arts

“What are we doing here?” I asked as I looked out the window at couples and families walking towards the doors with wide smiles on their faces 

“Well” he cleared his throat “We haven’t talked much about our favorite artists, or preferences, but we both love art. I figured you hadn’t seen this one yet, but would possibly be interested..it’s a Vincent van Gogh exhibit. I got us the VIP tickets so we can skip the lines, do the virtual headset experience, get a poster, and it’s set up like it’s in it’s own little bubble they say it’s like ‘stepping into his paintings’ I hope you don’t mind” he shrugged as he looked out the window 

Honestly, this is the cutest and sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me. 

Ever. 

“Are you serious right now kook?” I smiled wide “This is the best thing anyone has ever done for me! I love Van Gogh, hands down one of my top three artists of all time. I never even heard of this before. Come on let’s go!” I took my seatbelt and without waiting for him, rushed to get out of the car.
