Jimin smiled widely as he fiddled with the soft pink flower petals in his small hand. Yoongi never failed to amaze him, surprising him with such a cliché date in a cliché romantic city made him uncontinuously smile at the older. The fact that Yoongi must have woken up so early in the morning to go out and buy everything to prepare for their little date made his heart warm— he finally knew why he woke up without Yoongi on his side of the bed earlier. Even if they were on the rooftop of their hotel and Yoongi brought out little things such as their food, what mattered the most was that it was from Yoongi and his efforts.

"You know the story of the eiffel tower?" Yoongi questioned, taking a sip from his glass of champagne as he looked at the giant structure in the distance.

"It has a story?"

The older nodded, "Yeah. Originally, the engineer Gustave Eiffel designed and built the tower for it to be a temporary exhibit. Parisians thought it was an ugly thing to look at. I mean, it was a huge brown scrap of metal. It was almost demolished in 1909, but it was spared because the antennas could be used for military purposes. Although it's now the world's symbol of romance, its radical design represented anything but love back then. A lot of people wanted it gone, but it stayed and now it's one of the most beautiful things in the world."

"Wow," was all Jimin could respond with. His eyes sparkled as he stared at the tower in the pink and purple afternoon sky, now knowing the story of it.

"If they got rid of it, we wouldn't even be here," Jimin whispered under his breath, but of course Yoongi heard it.

Yoongi put his glass down and stood up. He walked behind Jimin, sitting down and wrapping his arms around the slightly smaller boy's waist. "You know, the story of the tower kind of reminds me of us," The older whispered in his boyfriend's ear. His breath sent small shivers down Jimin's spine, but nonetheless, Jimin leaned back more into Yoongi's hold.

"Why us? Am I ugly?" Jimin pouted.

Yoongi chuckled, "Of course not, sunshine. I mean, the tower was, well.. odd, back then. People wanted it gone but it became something very important and beautiful to the world. Just like how I have to admit I didn't like it when you first moved in with me."

Jimin frowned, "I see."

Yoongi kissed Jimin's cheek, making his frown instantly vanish.
