Y/N's P.O.V

"I heard from a little birdie that you're now dating my sister." Beyoncé said coming out of nowhere.

"Is the little birdie your sister herself?" I asked already knowing the answer.

"Maybe but I'm happy that you two are finally together. I remember twenty years ago when she first told me that she had a crush on you. It shouldn't have took this long." She replied.

"Why you and Jay keep saying it's been twenty years? It's been like six at the most." I say.

"Y/N she was sixteen when she told me. She's thirty-six now." Bey said.

"Solange is not thirty-six." I say before coming to a realization that she really is. "Wait she is. So you mean to tell me that you knew this for the past twenty years and said nothing to me? I thought we were better than that."

"It's not my business to tell. But let's not act like Jay hasn't known this whole time either. Any one of us could've said something at any moment yet none of us did. Ain't nobody fault but y'all's though." Bey replied.

"Whatever, we together now. Now I have to plan a long overdue date." I say.

"That's easy. You know she likes shit like museums and aquariums. She's always been that type of person. In fact they just opened up that new big ass aquarium downtown right next to the science museum." She responded.

"Really? I love museums and aquariums." I say.

"Y'all are really a match made in heaven. Both nerds for real." Bey said walking away.

I rolled my eyes and started planning the events for later tonight. How can I fit twenty years of wasted time into a date? That's not possible but at the same time I don't need to do all that.

"Solange, why the fuck would I want to touch a stingray?" I ask.

"It's cute and harmless." She answered as the workers were actually letting her touch it.

"No it ain't. That's how my nigga Steve Irwin died." I reply.

"The chances of it stinging you are very low." Solo said.

"But still a possibility. I love all the sea creatures in here but I love my life more." I respond.

Watching her enjoy herself with the stingray is adorable. The creature isn't cute whatsoever but the smile on her face is. I've had a really great time. I gotta thank Bey for this idea later.

"Where do I rank on this list of love?" Solange asked.

"Very high. You should know that I love you a lot." I smile.

"I love you more than you'll ever know." She said.

"Was that for me or that damn stingray?" I joke.

"For Mr. Ray of course." She chuckled.

"Damn, he done stole my date." I say.

She seemed to be done touching the ugly creatures and sanitized her hands. I held on to her hand as we continued to look at things that were both amazed by.

"Nothing or nobody could ever steal me from you. I've wanted you for so long. I ain't going anywhere." Solange said seriously.

"Neither am I." I reply.

The aquarium was great. We also went to that science museum. Let's just say that we almost got ourselves banned. I don't know how. Actually I do know how but it would've been Solange's fault.
