She heard him call her beautiful and all Jane could do was face the other way. 

She was being silly. 

She'd been called beautiful before.

But she was flattered because it was him.

But she was shocked.

Because it was him.

What the FUCK!

Breath Jane.

In and Out.

In.

Out.

Jane took a step forward and she knew, she felt it. Namjoon had taken one with her.

There was a kind of electricity in the air. Science would say it was because when there are that many people in close proximity to one another, the energy their body produces can be felt in the air. But Jane knew otherwise.

It was the fucking tether. 

The stupid tether tied to Namjoon. The bloody tether that had kept her looking five feet to her left for the past 30 minutes because he was walking there. 

That ridiculous tether that made her blush when she caught him looking back. 

What was happening to her?

You are not a gushing violet Jane Seville.

"I thought since you hadn't seen the city -" 

"Thank You." She glanced quickly across the footpath, the crowds passing between them.

"You like it." He chuckled.

Jane had seen the movement so many times online, the little lilt of his head, the way he looked down at his feet when he was happy before returning his attention to the person in front of him. It had made her happy those times she had witnessed it through a screen. But seeing it in person.

This man....

"What's wrong?" He asked her, the expression gone.

How long had she stared at him?

"Nothing." She signed shaking her head. Laughing a little at herself. 

How could anything be wrong. 

Jane glanced over at him again. She was a little sad that no one had recognised him. Not because she wanted to be found out, or she wanted him to be seen. Rather it was a pity that no one was bearing witness to this version of Kim Namjoon.

This quiet, considerate and surprisingly romantic man.

Was this really her soulmate?

"I like to come here sometimes to write." He told her as they continued walking. "When I can't concentrate or my studio gets a little stuffy."

"I can see why. "

Then it was Namjoon's turn to speak. And Jane wanted nothing in that moment then to listen. About the time he came here during BTS's early days, back before debut when the dorm would get intense because the members were still getting to know each other.  He spoke about how he showed it to his parents when they came to visit, and how he took his sister to Lotte World Magic Island when he got his first paycheck. He told her about his favourite poems, and how he thought she might like to go see some of the markets in the city, where the best places in the city to eat were. How Taehyung had mentioned one recently that he himself wanted to go to. Jane smiled to herself at the mention of Francios' restaurant, keeping it to herself rather then interrupt him.
