Y/n's POV
[A few weeks later]
Today's date is 30 December. It's Taehyung's birthday. Taehyung didn't tell me, but Jimin had told me when we hung out together, once.
I had planned a suprise for him. Taehyung doesn't know I know it's his birthday, so I thought it was better to suprise him. I'm going to take him to an ice rink. I had done some research, and it was the best place to execute my plan.
After being with Tae for so long, I realized something that I should have realized a long time ago. Today, I'm gonna tell Tae what I feel.
-
It is morning and Tae and I are eating our breakfast. Since it was the end of the year, we all didn't have to work. I had told Tae yesterday that I wanted to go to an ice rink and conveniently, he suggested to go today. I had already notified my plan to the guys, so that they wouldn't make any plans with him. Till now, I don't think he suspects anything.
We are done eating our breakfast, but it was still to early to go, so we are going out to watch a movie at the theaters.
-
We were at the theaters getting some snacks to eat while watching the movie.
"Y/n, which one do you want, sweet or salty?" Tae asked gesturing towards the different flavored popcorn.
"I'll take sweet."
"But I want salty..." He replied with a pout. He was too cute to say no to.
"Then, let's take both. There is a mixed one here." I took hold of a bucket of popcorn, that had both sweet and salty in it.
"Alright. Want a bottle of coke?" He walked to the refrigerators full of drinks.
"Yes, please." I replied. He grabbed two bottles and we walked towards the cashiers.
-
We were sitting in our seats to watch the movie. It was a rom-com.
I was looking at the movie but when I took a glance towards Tae, instead of looking at the big screen in front of us, he was looking at me.
I didn't expect him to look at me so my heart did a little jump. I turned my head to completely see his face. He smiled at me then looked at the screen. A smile made it's way onto my face too. I rested my head onto his shoulder. He turned his face a little to look at me with a smile, before he paid attention to the movie.
-
The movie ended and it was time to make our way to the ice rink. We took the car and arrived in a half hour. It was still pretty light outside, but it was necessary to make my plan work.

Taehyung's POV
I was surprised when Y/n told me she wanted to go to an ice rink. Cause after all, she can't ice skate. I thought she probably forgot, so I didn't want to ruin her fun and agreed to take her.
Even though it's my birthday, I didn't have any plans for today. The guys were all too busy they said... I didn't tell Y/n either. Knowing her, she would get mad at me for telling her last minute, so I decided to just not mention it.
-
Y/n had said there was a rink she wanted to visit, saying that it was a very popular place. So after the movies, we drove to the ice rink.
It was an outdoor rink. The course was in the form of an oval. There is an extra huge Christmas tree standing in the middle of the rink with a lot of Christmas lights in it, but the lights in the tree aren't lit up. They must be waiting for new year to take it down, since Christmas is already over.
We went towards the locker area to put our stuff away after getting our skates, from the little booth. Even though Y/n said this was a popular rink, I almost couldn't see anyone else here. We were the only ones here to skate. Must be because it's new years, the day after tomorrow.
We slowly walked towards the opening of the rink. I stepped on the ice. I turned around to see if Y/n had managed to do the same, but I wasn't surprised when I already saw her slip. I quickly grabbed her before she could land on the hard ice.
"Haha, Thanks Tae." She awkwardly let out.
She must have gotten embarrassed.
"No problem. Here, hold my hand." I let her stand up straight and put out my hand for her to take.
After making a few rounds, skating. She had started to get a hang of it. Even though she could manage on her own, she didn't want to let me go.
"C'mon Y/n, you can do it on your own too." I slightly let go of her.
"NO! Don't let go of meee! I'll fall!" She cried out like a little kid.
"Love, you won't fall. I'm here to catch you if you fall, so don't worry." I assured her.
She looked at me like a child, scared to let go of her parent, because she's afraid to get lost. I gave her a smile, to ensure she'll be fine. She slowly lets go of my hand. She almost lost her balance when she tried to take a step, but got it back.
She was able to get some distance by herself, but fell again. I had caught her before she fell on the ice. She clung at me, for dear life.
"I'm never letting you go again." She said seriously. I could feel my heart skip a beat when she said that. I know it was in a different sense, but I couldn't help it.
"It has gotten pretty dark now, what's the time?" She suddenly asked when she stood straight.
"Almost six." I replied after looking on my watch.
Her eyes widened for some reason.
"Tae, I need to go to the lockers. I need to get something. You stay here, I'll be right back, alright?" She suddenly said.
"Um. Alright, but do you want me to bring you back there?"
"Uh. Yes, please." She looked so sad. I chuckled a bit, then took her hand to help her get back.

Y/n's POV
Shoot, it's almost six!
I quickly went to the lockers and opened one of them to take out roses I bought for Tae. I ran back and saw Tae standing there, back-facing me while waiting for me.
I hid the arm with the flowers behind me back and used the other one to grab Tae's arm.
"Let's go!" I said. We needed to hurry, otherwise he would miss the surprise.
We got on the rink again and I let him take us to the curve of the rink, so he would get a full view of the suprise. It was very dark now.
"Taehyung." I called out for him. He turned his head towards me and looked a bit confused.
I put a bright smile on my face and all the fairy lights suddenly lit up. The huge Christmas tree in the middle, was fully lit up. I specially arranged this. The Christmas lights in the tree spelled out words. 'Happy birthday Tae' it said.
Taehyung's head immediately turned towards the tree and his eyes widened. He stared at it for a moment and then turned his head back towards me. Before he could say anything, I hugged him.
"Happy birthday, Tae" I shouted out and wrapped my arms more tightly around him. He stood still for a moment, probably progressing what was happening. He wrapped his arms around me after a while and whispered in my ear.
"Thank you, Love. I can't believe you actually knew it was my birthday today." His voice sounded a little shaky.
"Of course, I knew! I'm your girlfriend afterall." I could feel him hug me even tighter, after saying that.
I pulled back from the hug and put out my hand with the roses in it.
"I got you these. I hope you like them." I handed him the roses with a smile.
"I love them, thank you." He smiled at me and it was one of the most beautiful moments in my life.
He placed a kiss on my forehead and intertwined our hands. He turned to look at the tree, that was still shining brightly. I looked at him and it was one of the best sights, I had ever seen of him.
