Fifty three days later

"Welcome to my second home."

Moonsun spread her arms and turned around with a grin on her face. Yoongi followed rather reluctantly, his hands in his pockets. A few guys were already in the skating park, showing off the coolest tricks without falling or injuring themselves.

"Wow," Yoongi said, "You're inviting me here before I get to see your real home."
Moonsun grinned. She had her old skateboard, plastered with stickers, underneath her arm and a backpack loosely hanging over her shoulder.
"Try harder, and maybe I'll invite you over for a coffee," she said with a wink, then she turned back around and hopped over to one of the rather small ramps. Even before she said anything, Yoongi already had a bad feeling in his stomach.

"Please don't tell me this is what I think it's going to be," he said. Moonsun laughed.
"I told you I'd teach you how to skate, didn't I?" she said, "Come on, it's not that hard. Besides, I'll be there to catch you!"
Yoongi eyed her tiny frame and doubted that.
"I'm going to break my neck," he said, "Do you want that?"

But Moonsun didn't listen to his whining. Instead, she grabbed his hand and pulled him to an empty space right next to the ramp.
"I'll show you how to skate forward first, okay?" she said amusedly, "Just listen to what I say."

On her request, Yoongi stood on the skateboard rather hesitantly; it felt weird and unstable, but before he could complain, she had grabbed his hands to secure him.

"Don't worry, I got you."

Yoongi glanced at her. She was close, but she did not look back at him.
"Put one foot down on the ground," she instructed, "And then push."
Yoongi did. And it worked, the skateboard rolled a few meters; but then again, Yoongi wasn't entirely sure if it was all his doing or Moonsun who had pulled him.
"See!" she shouted out in excitement, "You're a natural talent!"

Yoongi chuckled. "I'm not so sure about that."

Much to his own surprise, though, it didn't take him long to skate on his own for at least a few meters. Maybe he did have a bit of talent after all. But the slight euphoria over his success was short-lived; eventually, Moonsun went over to the ramp again and waved.
"I think you're ready for the real test," she said, then, with a grin, she climbed up one side of the ramp and stretched her arms out. Yoongi felt his heart drop.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" she shouted to no one in particular, "Gather and watch sir Min Yoongi attempt not to fall on his face and break all his bones and instead show off some badass tricks!" She grinned when a bunch of boys turned around and threw them curious glances. Yoongi grabbed her hand and pulled himself up the ramp when she reached out for him.
"Shut up," he mumbled in embarrassment, "You know very well that I can't do this shit."
Moonsun just smiled happily. "Don't worry," she said, "I'll show you."

She grabbed the skateboard from Yoongi and with one move, one little jump, she stood on the skateboard and skated over to the other side. A rather simple trick, but Yoongi was impressed either way. She returned to him with a huge smile on her lips.
"See, so easy," she said, then laughed when she saw Yoongi's doubtful look.
"Well, you've been practicing for years," he said, "and I just stood on that thing for the very first time just a few moments ago."
"Fair enough." She leaned against the railing and looked at Yoongi. Her grin had turned into a soft, smug smile. Yoongi's heart skipped a beat.

It was weird, then. Yoongi didn't really think when he acted; it might've been different if he had.

His hand found its way to Moonsun's arm and pulled her closer. Their chests touched. Her eyes widened, but in a pleasantly surprised manner; a soft smile found its way to her lips.

And then, they were on Yoongi's, and they were kissing. It was a short kiss, a soft, timid one, but it managed to stop the world nonetheless, and for a moment, everything was alright. But only shortly, because then they broke apart again, and reality came rushing back to Yoongi and he realized what he had done.

Weirdly, it was Jimin out of all people that he thought of first. 

Yoongi pulled back, a bit too abrupt for his own liking, but Moonsun didn't seem to see it as something negative. Curiosity sparkled in her eyes as she searched for something in Yoongi's.

"You're quite something, Min Yoongi," she eventually said, taking a step back but intertwining their fingers and not letting go, "I like you."

Yoongi's heart beat heavily. He had yet to figure out if it was something good or not, but right now, it felt right.
"You're not too bad yourself," Yoongi said breathlessly, "Quite... interesting."

It was a dumb, vague answer, but it satisfied Moonsun. She chuckled and bit down on her bottom lip.
"So, I can expect you to take me out on another date?" she asked, a daring undertone to her voice. She raised one eyebrow, as if to mock Yoongi, but he knew it wasn't serious. He breathed through deeply, squeezed her hand lightly.

"I think at this point, I don't have any other choice, do I?" he said just to sound dramatic, yet he pulled her closer at the same time and kissed her lightly.
"Moonsun," he whispered, "Would you like to go on a second date with me?"
She couldn't help but grin as she pretended to consider his offer.
"Hm... let me think," she said and laughed when Yoongi pouted, "I'd love to."

Yoongi smiled. "Good," he said quietly before kissing her once again, trying to push the guilty feeling in his stomach far, far away and try to forget about it for a while.
