The hours seemed to melt away as Na-ra and Taehyung lay entwined, cocooned in their shared warmth. The day had faded, and now, almost nighttime, a different kind of magic draped itself over them. Tonight, the moon was fuller, brighter, and the sky seemed impossibly clear, a sea of stars winking down, as if blessing the two innocent souls nestled close. Na-ra gazed at Taehyung, an idea suddenly sparking in her eyes.

She turned to him, whispering with a playful glint in her voice, "Come with me. I want to show you something."

Taehyung, curiosity piqued, nodded without hesitation. "Lead the way, my moonbeam."

They slipped out of the room quietly, Na-ra holding his hand as they crept down the hall. Passing by her parents, Na-ra's heart raced, half-expecting a question or a stern look, but they didn't even look up. Relief washed over her. She guided Taehyung out the front door, and as they stepped into the cool night air, she spotted her bicycle leaning against the fence.

Na-ra turned to Taehyung, her voice low and conspiratorial, "Alright, so... You've never ridden a bike before, right?"

Taehyung tilted his head, puzzled. "A... bike? You mean this... strange cart?"

Na-ra giggled softly, trying to keep quiet in the night. "Something like that. Here," she whispered, showing him where to place his hands. "Sit here at the back. Hold on tight, okay?"

Taehyung's fingers gently brushed against hers, his touch tentative. "Like this?" he murmured, his voice soft, nearly breathless from the closeness.

"Yes, perfect. Just... hold on," Na-ra said, blushing as she mounted the bike and began pedaling slowly. Taehyung, wrapping his arms around her waist, leaned in close, his head just near her shoulder, his breath warm against her neck. The sensation sent a pleasant shiver down her spine.

The night air was crisp and cool, and as they rode through the quiet streets, everything seemed more vibrant under the moon's gentle glow. Taehyung's eyes widened in wonder as they passed streetlights, the warm, golden light playing over his features. "Everything... it looks so different at night," he whispered, his voice filled with awe.

Na-ra glanced back at him, a small smile tugging at her lips. "You haven't seen anything yet."

They rode in comfortable silence, the city slowly giving way to quieter, more deserted streets. Eventually, they reached their destination: the abandoned park. The gates stood tall and slightly rusted, creaking softly as Na-ra pushed them open. The park lay in front of them, bathed in moonlight, a forgotten place untouched by time. Not a soul was there-just them, the trees, and the twinkling stars above.

Na-ra got off the bike, her heart thudding with excitement. "This... this is where I wanted to bring you."

Taehyung looked around, his eyes wide with amazement. "It's beautiful... and lonely," he whispered.
