Summary: Working at the museum has its perks too.

---

The first time you saw him, you couldn't help but stare. You were surprised to see him at the museum you part-timed in on your free days. You were also in awe because never in your life did you think about seeing Im Hyunsik in the flesh. You've only seen him on television when their concerts were broadcasted in networks or when their comeback was happening.

The small smile on his lips when you first encountered him was still fresh in your mind. It wasn't the usual smile he gave where his eyes turned into crescents. It was a shy kind of smile. The next time you met was still at the museum as he was, yet again, buying another admission ticket. The smile was still shy but his eyes showed that he somehow recognized you from somewhere. The third time, he finally realized that you were the one in-charge of the ticket. He smiled a little wider now, as if he recognized you as a staple person in his visit to the museum.

It took 2 or 3 more visits until you found the courage to talk to him. As he approached the ticket counter, you took in a deep breath to ready yourself. You almost melted when he smiled at you.

"Hey," you greeted. "Another day pass?"

"Yeah," he nodded with a small smile on his lips. There was no line behind him so you decided to engage in small talk.

"I'm guessing that you really like art, huh?" You said as you processed his entry ticket.

He tilted his head from side to side. "Yeah,"

You nodded thoughtfully at his response.

"Do you... like art too?" He hesitantly asked.

"Yup~ I'm actually an art major and I specialize in painting," you grinned. "Working here has it's perks for me because I can go around when I'm on my break,"

"That's cool. Maybe we can go around together some time,"

You were surprised to say the least. A smile broke on your lips. "Actually, I'm about to go on a 30-minute break in about 10 minutes. If you want to, I can go around with you,"

The man chuckled and his eyes finally turned into those small crescents you've seen only on the screen. "I'm Hyunsik, by the way,"

"(Y/N)," you introduced. "It's nice to meet you, Hyunsik,"

You didn't bother telling him that you knew him because you felt like it might make him feel wary of you after establishing a relatively comfortable atmosphere.

"I'll see you in 10 minutes, (Y/N)," he said as you handed him his ticket.

"See you, Hyunsik," you waved at him as he left to probably go around for a while before meeting with you. When he was finally out of your sight, you wanted to melt and forever stay as a puddle of goo. "Okay (y/n), you have to keep yourself together. It's just Hyunsik... just... BTOB's... Im Hyunsik. Yeah, not a big deal. Totally not a big deal at all," you thought to yourself as you went on with your work for the next 10 minutes.

After the longest 10 minutes of your life, you find yourself strolling through an uncrowded portion of the museum with Hyunsik. The both of you shared passionate discussions about art and painting styles. You were somewhat knowledgable about his artistic skills but you were still impressed with the different techniques that he said he wanted to try in the future. Without you knowing, he was also impressed by your interpretations of certain pieces of art.

Your break went faster than you wanted. You were trying not to pout as Hyunsik walked back with you to the counter. "Aw," you sighed. "I was just beginning to have fun. We haven't even started with those deep art talks," you joked.

Hyunsik chuckled. "Maybe we can meet another time,"

You were pretty sure that your eyes sparkled. "Oh yeah? That's be great! But... Aren't you busy? I mean..."

He quirked a brow. "Busy with what?"

"I mean," you started but you couldn't think of a believable excuse. "Okay. Look, I know you're BTOB's Hyunsik. I've seen you on television a bunch of times. So, aren't you busy with the idol life?"

"I know," Hyunsik chuckled. "I know you knew who I was,"

"What?"

"The first time you saw me, your eyes were about to pop out of their sockets,"

"No!" You heavily denied but you knew he was right. "Okay, fine. I was surprised! But man... Now this feels weird,"

"Why?" He leaned against the counter as you went to your spot in front of the computer. His eyes followed your every move, even your hand when you took out your phone and placed it by the keyboard. "Because I'm an idol?"

"Partly, I guess?" You shrugged. "But mostly because I'm starting to feel shy around you now that you know that I know!"

Hyunsik laughed. "You're silly, (y/n). I enjoyed your 30-minute company. I really do want to meet with you again when I'm not busy,"

You blushed as you slightly bit your lower lip. "Yeah, okay,"

"Great," he said as he beamed. His eye smile was so blinding. "Here, let's swap numbers," Hyunsik leaned over and grabbed your phone. He quickly typed in his number and called his phone. "Got it," he winked.

"Wow," you teased. "Okay, Mr. Smooth Moves. I'll see you again next time. Now go, I need to work," you said as you took your phone from him. You were trying to act cool but your heart was racing.

He raised his hands as he slowly moved away. "Okay! I'll text you. See you (y/n)!"
