❝Have you ever painted anybody naked?❞ You ask out of curiosity.
Yoongi clears his throat nervously, ❝No.❞
❝Could I be the first?❞

"I'm sorry, what?"
"You're my muse, Y/N," He smiles happily. "So would you let me paint you?"
"I don't understand. I'm your muse? Me?"
Yoongi nods, feeling shy.
"I don't know," You answer, unsure. "Who would even like to see me in a painting? I'm not pretty enough. You'd be wasting your time on something that nobody would buy. I can help you find someone else if–"
Yoongi grabs your hand and puts your self-deprecating rant to a stop.
"I don't want anybody else. I want to paint you," He makes it clear. "You had faith in me, believed in me, so yes. You are my muse. You are my inspiration and I need the source of motivation on a canvas so it continues to encourage me. Please say yes."
Yoongi's careful not to be too flirty since you might be apprehensive, so he says just enough to convince you he's being friendly. Truth is he likes you, very much so, but you're married.
You reluctantly agree and he asks to meet him at his place at a convenient time for you.
"How should I dress? Sunday best?"
Yoongi is tempted to say, "You look beautiful in absolutely anything", but stops himself. Instead, he replies with, "Whatever you'd like."

You decide to sneak out to meet with Yoongi since you know Richard doesn't like him. Obviously. He was nearly going to kill him in his sleep the last time he was in his house.
You arrive at Yoongi's place in one of your grandmother's dresses. The dress is important to you and so is your grandmother. She was the only one who listened to you and acknowledged your concerns.
Yoongi's quick on his feet when he hears a knock at the door. He swings the door open, the luminous sun striking his eyes. He couldn't see you clearly, so he covers the glowing star with his hand.
He's absolutely awestruck. He didn't think you could look any more beautiful and yet here you were, absolutely perfect in his eyes. It was weird, but the fact that you didn't even recognize how gorgeous you were just made Yoongi fall for you even more.
