Kim Namjoon
Age: 16

At the age of 13 Namjoon met his first love. She was everything he could ever as for in a girl, she was kind hearted, sweet and lovable. After three years of a sweet and shy crush, Namjoon gathered the courage to ask this girl out on his 16th birthday.

Gladly, she accepted and suggested that they spend her birthday together which is a week after Namjoon's.

Namjoon made sure he looked his best, he wanted to impress her. The nervous but excited boy walks up to the house hold of the special girl. He took a deep breath before he knocked on the door. She opened the door looking as stunning as ever, causing Namjoon to display his dimple.

"Happy birthday, Sojin-ah!" He exclaims with such excitement, causing her to smile wider. "Uhm... Are you absolutely sure that you don't want to celebrate with your family or other friends?" Namjoon asked, a tad guilty for taking her away on her birthday.

Sojin shifts her round-framed glasses to sit on her nose properly and tucks a strand of her short hair behind her ear while smiling gently.

"It's fine, we hardly celebrate birthdays anymore because of... Well, something. And everyone is busy with things so I appreciate you taking me out, Namjoon." She looks him in the eye and smiles sweetly.

He couldn't help but melt and return the best, deep dimpled smile he could offer.

"So," Sojin clears her throat, furiously blushing at the fact that Namjoon smiled at her.

Namjoon.

The boy that she has also loved for a long time.

Neither of them knew of each other's feelings. Namjoon thought she had said yes because she had nothing better to do, so he planned to woo her as much as he can so that he could become her boyfriend.

Sojin had thought it was strange that he came up to her, as they've only exchanged brief, formal words in school over the years. Words such as "hello" or "class is about to start" and nothing more. Maybe he was dared to ask out the loner of the school? She feels selfish for saying yes but she wanted the opportunity.

"What exactly are we going to do?" She asks Namjoon, her breath hitching slightly when his fingers softly brushed against hers as they walked away from her house and toward the destination of the night.

"We're gonna go to a theme park, go on all the rides and eat candy floss and wear matching headbands! And after that we'll go to Seoul tower for the fireworks display that's on tonight." He says.

"Can you afford all the rides?!" She asked.

"Of course! I've been saving up for weeks for this..." His voice trails off as he realized he gave himself away. 'Argh, why would you tell her that, Joon?!' he mentally screams.

Another vicious blush spreads across the bridge of her nose and colours her cheeks which makes Namjoon melt all over again. "Wow, you did this all for me?" She asks sheepishly. "Yes." He smiles. Her heart nearly stops at the sight of his dimple.

They spend at least two to three hours at the theme park, getting to know each other a bit more, enjoying the rides, taking cute photos and eating sweet things.

Namjoon couldn't think of another way of spending the night. He was with Sojin and that's all he cared about.

Sojin has a sunbae/Oppa named Minseok, who is 19 years old and who had fallen in love with her when he was 15 years old. He was a family friend's son, who had looked after her as a big brother since they've met.
