It was a little over ten minutes of when I said I would be home. I unlock my car that was parked in the driveway of my father's house, I open the door to the driver's seat. I buckle myself in and start the engine to my car. I gaze at myself in my rear view mirror, moving some hair strands to the side of my face.

When I was done with that, I start backing out of the driveway. Afterwards, I put on the radio and start driving back to my house. It wasn't long before I reached my destination. I park my car, and went inside. I wanted to grab a bottle of water from the fridge, my mouth was dry and I was feeling a little dehydrated.

I set the bottle down on the counter, making my way to the nearest mirror that I could find. I checked myself out, seeing if my outfit was okay and my hair wasn't too messy. I didn't want to embarrass myself in front of Hyunjin. The thought of him not caring how I dressed or if I didn't put any make-up on did not cross my mind.

The sound of the front door bell ringing interupted my thoughts. I avert my attention, hurriedly walking toward the door. I open it, each passing second revealing more of who was on the other side. Hyunjin. As always, he looked so fine. But I hid these emotions I was getting out of it. I didn't want to ruin this just because I couldn't contain and stop my feelings for him, and possibly lose him all-together in the end.

"Hello, " He spoke first, smiling soon after. I smiled as well.

"Hey, " I greet back. This interaction felt a little awkward, considering it took a few extra second's for someone to speak up again.

"C'mon, " Hyunjin said, motioning his hand to the outdoors. I nod, checking my pockets if I had all the stuff I needed before going outside.

"Yours or mine?" I hear him say from behind me, making me turn to look at him. A confused expression visible on my face.

"Vehicle, unless you want to walk, " He added. I mouthed 'ah' with a slow nod, understanding what he was trying to say.

"Yours is fine, " I respond to his question.

"Okay, " Hyunjin went first. Leading me to where he parked his car, which was on the side of the road in front of my house. He unlocked the car, opening the door to the passenger seat for me. I smile and quietly thank him as I got inside and sat down, hearing the door next to me close. Not a soft close, but not a harsh one either.

I gaze at him after buckling my seatbelt, watching as he made his way to the other side. The engine starting when he got in and buckled himself in. I stared at him a little longer, just long enough to where he won't look back and where I'm able to get a good look at him.

"So, where are we going?" I ask, looking around for a moment.

"It's a surprise, " Hyunjin said, replying to my question. Turning my attention back to him. That brought me to realize that I had asked that earlier and got the same response, I flushed at the embarrassment I felt.

"Right, " I whisper, though he was still able to catch what I said. It has been over ten minutes now, and as time went on I soon got an idea of where he was taking me. I didn't want to make assumptions yet, so I kept quiet and enjoyed the drive. But it wasn't until we were near a large hill, one that resides a very popular destination.

    Though, I didn't say anything. Hyunjin probably already knew that I figured out where he took me, and yet it felt as if it would ruin the mood if I spoke up. He parked at the side of the road, then he started unbuckling and turning off the engine. I followed his actions, unbuckling my seatbelt and gathering my stuff. Afterward, Hyunjin and I exited the car. He quickly rushed to my side.

    He watched as I fixed myself up a little. I felt my cheeks heating up, being stared at like this. I gaze at the ground, afraid to make eye contact with him. It quickly changed when I was done, signalling that I was done with what I was doing.

    "Come, " He says softly, leading the way to the stairs leading up to the tower. I follow after him, trying to keep up with his pace. We both rushed up the stairs, shortening the time it would take to get to the top. We soon stop at a deck, getting a good view of Seoul. The darkening sky, with clouds dotted around which covered parts of the sun. The large city lying below, the lights of the street lamps and buildings slowly became more visible. It was cooler up here, so I clung to Hyunjin; which made him glance at me.

"Beautiful isn't it?" He said, I hummed as a response. Looking around at the life below us. It would've been a better view if it were later in the evening and all the street lamps were on, but I figured he had his reasons for taking me here before that.

After enjoying the breeze and staring down upon the city, I start taking a few pictures. I wanted to be able to have a clear memory of this moment, it was romantic and this is our first date. If that's what he considered it. The scenery was amazing too, so I had the urge to take pictures. After doing that, I start taking some selcas of me with the Namsan tower behind me as well as the city. I noticed that Hyunjin was watching me with a soft smile painted on his lips, making me lightly blush out of embarrassment.

"You want me to take the pictures for you?" He requested, I hesitated for a moment. Thinking if I should decline or not.

"Sure, " I reply, handing him my phone. He took a couple pictures, then told me to do certain poses for the last few. He then handed me my phone, I scrolled through the ones he took. I would be lying if I said he was bad at photography, the images came out perfect.

"Thank you, " I bowed my head down a little, showing my gratitude.

"Your welcome, " Hyunjin spoke, grinning. I wondered if he would be okay with taking a picture with me, being uncertain of how he would respond and how awkward it would be if he rejected. I wanted to ask anyway, even if I would be ashamed in the end.

"Do you want to take a photo with me?" I ask. I felt his gaze on me, but I didn't want to look back.

"Of course, " He answered, making me feel relieved. I gently smile, then went to my camera. I made sure that the Namsan Tower as well as the city would be in view. Then I did a little pose, which encouraged Hyunjin to do a pose of his own. I snapped a few shots of us, each with a different position.

We stayed at the deck for a little longer, before we both decided that we started heading back down the hill. Maybe going inside the Tower is reserved for another time, yet I didn't expect that we would go back here for another date; moreover, going to the many little shops and cafés inside the Namsan Tower.

It took us a little longer to get down, but eventually we made it. I took a few moments to catch my breath, Hyunjin doing the same. He unlocked the car, and I got in the passenger seat. Waiting for him to get in the driver's seat and start the car. Of which, it didn't take very long. We both buckled, and he started to drive back my place.

It was about 18:17 (6:17pm) when I was dropped off. I said my goodbyes to him, then went inside my house. I changed back into the clothes I wear indoors, my more comfortable piece of clothing. After that, I went into my kitchen to start making myself some dinner whilst relishing the moments I shared with Hyunjin not long ago.

Author note: I hoped you enjoyed this chapter, this may have been a bit cringe but I haven't really written people going on dates. Nor have I been on on myself to know what it was like, either way I wish that this was decent.
