You're now eating your food as you and Yoongi talk. You smile over at him as you listen to him give more background on his life.

You already knew about him growing up poor and how he has a brother. You also already know a decent amount of information about his friendship with Jimin and Namjoon. However, he started telling you more about his favorite things and things that he loves and wants in life.

"So, you really like tangerines that much?" you question while letting out a soft laugh. You then pick up your chopsticks and continue eating as he nods his head.

"I love tangerines." He states before taking another bite of his food. He then reaches his hand up and covers his mouth as he talks while chewing. "I will say though, strawberries are a very close second."

"Why strawberries? That's such a basic fruit." You state before letting out a soft laugh. He then points his chopsticks at you as he speaks.

"You haven't tried freshly picked strawberries from Taehyung's grandparents' farm." He states, causing you to tilt your head to the side and arch an eyebrow.

"There's no way that would make a difference. Strawberries are strawberries." You argue. This causes Yoongi to immediately shake his head as he starts responding.

"Nope, that's it. Next time you stop by the studio, there's going to be freshly picked strawberries from there." He says before reaching for his phone in his pant pocket. You smile widely over at him before taking another bite of your food. He then grins before taking a sip of his glass of wine. Once he finishes drinking a sip, he places the glass carefully back onto the table. "We could even do a little... food play..." he says, lowering his voice towards the end of the sentence.

You raise an eyebrow before smirking over at him.

"You really like those strawberries that much?" you question. He merely smirks before leaning back in his chair. He then tilts his head to the side before grinning as he furrows his eyebrows slightly.

"I'm surprised you're questioning it. Normally, you'd love any opportunity to test out new things with me in bed. I mean, earlier you didn't even hesitate to put your clothes on when you thought I wanted to try clothed sex." He states.

This causes you to bite onto your lower lip while smiling devilishly. You then take a deep breath before taking a sip of your own glass of wine.

"That's fair." You state. "I do like testing out new things with you."

"Are you into food play or was I getting too far ahead of myself?" he questions. You shrug a shoulder.

"I'll try pretty much anything once... except for the bodily fluids no-no that I mentioned before." You state. He then nods his head.

The waiter then approaches the table and you both look up once he does.

"How's everything going over here?" he questions with a smile on his face. You grin up at him and Yoongi politely nods his head.

"Everything is going great. The food is incredible, please give my compliments to the chef." Yoongi states. The waiter nods his head before speaking again.

"Would you like to order a dessert?" he questions. You look over at Yoongi. He merely stares at you for a few seconds. You stare back, not showing any hints. He then looks up at the waiter once more and nods his head quickly.

"We'll split a tiramisu, please." He states. The waiter nods.

"Okay, sir. I'll have that tiramisu out for you momentarily." He states. Yoongi nods his head before looking over at you. You grin as the waiter walks away.

"You know me a little too well." You state. This causes him to shrug a shoulder.

"You think so?" he questions before letting out a soft laugh. "What makes you say that?"

"You ordered the dessert without asking." You state. This causes him to laugh.

"Well, for me, when I order a dessert on a date, that's a sign I'm having a good time." He states before taking a sip of his wine. This causes you to laugh softly.

"Oh? So, am I not as much of a so-called 'brat' on a date?" you tease. This causes him to shake his head.

"Nah, you're still just as bratty. I'm just used to it by now." He says. You take a sip of your wine now and stare over at him through the clear glass. After you finish taking a sip, you set the glass down and lean forward, resting your elbows on the table.

"So, since you said we'll share the dessert, is that another sign?" you question.

"It's my way of telling my date that I wouldn't mind having sex tonight." He bluntly states, causing you to raise your eyebrows and smile widely over at him.

"Oh really?" You question. He nods his head before the waiter approaches with the tiramisu. He sets it onto the table and you two look up at him and politely thank him. You both reach for the spoons next to the dish containing the tiramisu.

"After you." Yoongi states, causing you to grin.

"Why do I get the first bite?" you question. A smirk finds its way onto his lips as he looks over at you.

"Because I always let the ladies I'm hooking up with get pleasure first." He remarks. This causes you to immediately roll your eyes and shake your head.

Despite his cheesy joke, you still do take the first bite, dipping your spoon into the tiramisu. You then stare over at him as you bring the spoon towards your lips, tasting it.

"Mmm..." you quietly sound out, causing his jaw to clench. You then lick the remaining cream off of the spoon, erupting a 'fuck' from underneath Yoongi's breath. Looking over at him, you smile a flirtatious smile. "That was a horrible pickup line. You're lucky your dick is big." He smiles his gummy smile and shakes his head quickly before reaching his hand up and placing his index finger over his lips, signaling for you to be quiet.

"Hey now, don't go advertising that around." He teases. You give him a 'seriously' look before responding.

"Oh?" You then lower your voice to a whisper. "Does Mr. 'I-Do-Phone-Sex-and-Moaning-Audios-For-Extra-Cash' not like being told his dick is big? Would you prefer me to be ingenuine and lie about the size of it?" you tease. This causes him to softly laugh before he leans forward on the table.

"I like hearing that in private." He states before licking his lips. "Unless you're in the mood for me to punish you tonight."

Ooh.

Your legs tighten as your clit immediately starts throbbing at the thought of his big hand slapping against your ass while the other pulls on your hair. Biting your lip, you lean back in your seat and extend one of your legs out under the table. Brushing your foot against his lower leg, you watch as he arches an eyebrow upon feeling you coming into contact with him underneath the table.

"I wouldn't mind that one bit." You whisper over to him. He smirks before he then moves his foot away from yours. You slightly pout before he then gets up, moving his chair next to yours. You look over at him and he reaches for your spoon, gathering more of the tiramisu onto the spoon before he feeds you another bite of it.

You take the spoon into your mouth and stare into his eyes as you eat it. He clenches his jaw for a second and then sets the spoon down.

"Is it good?" he questions. You nod your head before reaching for his spoon. You gather some of the tiramisu onto it and bring the spoon towards his mouth. He opens his mouth, allowing you to feed him now. He nods his head as he gets a taste of it. "Hm... I haven't had tiramisu in a while. This one is pretty good." He states. You nod your head and go to get more onto the spoon for him but you're interrupted by his hand being placed on your arm.

He gently lowers your arm as you look over at him. He then smirks before leaning in. You lean forward as well and allow him to press his lips onto yours passionately.

This kiss is different than your usual kisses. He's not as rough or quick with the pace of the kiss. However, his hands are still handsy with one being placed on the side of your face and the other resting on your knee. You turn your body to face him more and allow your hand to rest on his. You guide his hand up your leg. He smirks against your lips before his tongue brushes along your lower lip. You comply and allow it entrance before you guide his hand up to the hem of your skirt.

You pull away from the kiss and give him the look that he's already used to by now. The stare that you give when you're getting excited. Biting onto your lower lip, you nod your head as his fingers start creeping beneath your skirt.

"I..." you start before glancing around the restaurant. Once you ensure there's no waiters coming over or passing by your table and no one is looking at you two, you look back at Yoongi. His hand is palming your upper thigh, teasing you as he doesn't come into contact with the area you want him to.

Once you turn your head back to face him, he has that same look that you know immediately.

It's the 'I'm going to take you home in seconds if you don't stop me' look.

"You what, baby?" he questions. You start to open your mouth before you're disappointed by the feeling of his warm hand leaving your thigh.

"Yoongi, don't t-" you start before being interrupted as he nods his head towards someone behind you. You look behind you and see the artist that was painting other customers.

She smiles at you and waves at you both.

"Hello, not to disturb this date but I was watching you feeding him tiramisu a few seconds ago and I think a couples portrait would be perfect for our wall." She states while gesturing towards the paintings on the wall. You raise your eyebrows as she says this before glancing over at the direction of the hostess from earlier.

You make eye contact with her and catch her staring until she looks away, lowering her head.

You then glance back at the artist who is eagerly waiting for your response.

"Your work is beautiful." You immediately state while looking up at the walls. "I actually saw you painting someone earlier and was amazed."

"Thank you so much. The owner really wants me to capture the good moments of people eating here. I think a painting of a couple enjoying a dessert with one another would be adorable. Would you like to pose for a painting?" she questions. You look over at Yoongi who looks over at you.

"What do you think, baby?" he questions.

You stare into his eyes for a second, trying to see if he's okay with this or not. Gulping, you look over at the artist once more.

"Can we have a few minutes to talk about it?" you question. She nods her head.

"Of course, I'll be wandering around if you end up agreeing to it." She says while smiling before walking away from your table.

"I think it sounds nice." Yoongi states, causing you to look back at him once more. You then tilt your head to the side before softly smiling.

"You don't think it's a little... weird?" you question. This causes him to tilt his head to the side as you say this. "I mean, you know, we aren't really a couple. We are both still seeing other people, you know?" you explain.

He stares at you for a few seconds before blinking. He then slowly nods his head and shrugs a shoulder.

"Okay. Whatever you want to do, baby." He states. "Just letting you know, if you wanted it, I'm okay with it if you wanted it."

"I just... it's a little uncomfortable just knowing you and I aren't anything serious right now, you know? This is our first actual date and who knows where we're going to be in like a month from now. To have a painting of us hung in a restaurant that I already know I'd like to come back to if we were to one day not be on good terms anymore or if we find other people, I don't know how I feel about that." You explain further.

"True, but what if the next time you come here, we're still together?" he questions. You smile as he says this.

"That's the thing, Yoongi. We're not 'together' in the traditional sense." You say quietly.

"I know that but I do like you." He grins over at you. "I wouldn't have asked you on a date if I didn't."

"And I like you too but one date is far too early to determine where this is going to end up." You say.

"Y/N, can I ask you a question?"

"Of course." You say.

"You're 100% sure that you're okay with me seeing other women and sleeping with other women?" he questions suddenly. You let out a soft laugh and nod your head.

"I wouldn't tell you I was okay with it if I had a problem with it." You state before shrugging your shoulders. "I don't want to hold you back if you find someone who you end up liking more than me. You're not my boyfriend and we haven't even had a talk about being exclusive because it's way too early to determine that yet."

Yoongi stares at you for a few seconds before nodding his head and smiling softly.

"I just wanted to be sure." He states before reaching his hand up and scratching the back of his neck. "I actually got a request from my other client that I've been meaning to talk to you about."

"The sugar mommy?" you tease. This causes him to laugh softly, shoulders shaking.

"She's not a sugar mommy." He argues. "But yes, her."

"What's the request?" you question.

"She asked me if I could find a way to either take time off or to bring my recording equipment with me to go with her to her vacation home." He states. "I honestly didn't want to commit to it without letting you know because we are sleeping together and I didn't want you to feel like I used you and then went MIA."

Your eyebrows raise as you stare over at him.

"Wow, that's quite the offer." You say in awe. "Getting paid to be on vacation and entertain a hot girl?" you question.

"Pretty much." He states.

"As a bisexual woman, that's got to be up there on my list of things I would do if I had the opportunity to." You say while laughing softly. "I say go for it."

"You're sure?"

"Yoongi, I don't understand why you're asking me so much. I'm sure. I'm not as sensitive as you think I am. I'm a grown up and if I don't like something or a boundary I would like to have in place is broken, I'll express that to you." He nods his head as you say this.

"You're just the first woman I've hooked up with who hasn't been sensitive about what I do or about me seeing other people." He states. "That's why I really don't want to screw something up to ruin this friends with benefits thing we have going."

"You're not going to. I'll tell you before you even have the chance to screw up. It's part of my bratty nature." You tease, causing him to laugh.

"Good." He states before leaning in and placing his lips against yours for a moment. "So, that's a 'no' to the painting?"

"That's a no." you agree while nodding your head.

He stares at you momentarily before nodding his head. He then looks around for the artist and she comes over with an excited smile on her face.

Once she reaches the table, Yoongi gives an apologetic smile.

"Should I grab my canvas?" she questions. This causes you to feel bad for a second.

"Uh, no, I'm sorry. This is our first date together and we think a couple who has been together longer is more deserving of a spot on the wall." He politely says. "But thank you for the offer, it's always a compliment to be told we're good looking enough to be painted."

She softly smiles and nods her head.

"Alright, I'll look out for another couple to paint." She says before looking over at you. You make eye contact with her as she does. "But if you two end up together for a long time, I expect you to come back to this restaurant." This causes you to laugh softly.

"You must think we're a really attractive couple to be saying that." You respond.

"I know love when I see it." She says before shrugging her shoulders and giving you both a smug smile. "Just want to see if my intuition is correct on this." She says while pointing between the two of you.

You look over at Yoongi and he looks back at you. You both are speechless. He then breaks eye contact with you and looks up at her.

"Ah, well, thank you again for the offer." He states politely.

"Promise me that you'll consider it if you do end up together?" she pleads. This causes Yoongi to look at you for some help with this. You look up at her and smile softly.

"We'll consider it." You say, your mind already nearly certain that her so-called 'intuition' isn't the strongest.

"Thank you. Have a nice night, you two." She says before starting to walk away from your table. She then glances back at you both. "Oh, by the way, since I interrupted you both before, I used my comp on your dessert and it's free for the night."

"Thank you so much." Yoongi says.

She merely nods before walking away from your table and making her way to the front of the restaurant where some people are starting to hang more of her finished paintings. She starts directing them to show where she wants each portrait to be hung.

Yoongi and you finish your dessert before paying the bill and making your way back to his car.

Once you're in the car and he's next to you, he glances over at you. You lick your lips and look over at him.

"Now... where were we?" you question before leaning in and pressing your lips onto his. He lets out a soft laugh before kissing you back for a bit. After a while, he then pulls away and buckles his seatbelt.

"Seatbelt, baby." He orders. You immediately comply and buckle your seatbelt, growing excited.

"So, your place or mine?" you question as you look over at him. He then smiles before taking a deep breath.

"Ah, I'm actually starting to get tired and the whole persistence of that painter killed the mood for me." he explains. Your smile falters slightly as you realize he's not horny.

"Oh, okay." You say, trying to raise your voice slightly to hide your disappointment. He then glances over at you, leaning back in his seat.

"I'll tell you what, I'll call you if the mood comes back. Sound good?" he inquires, sensing your disappointment. You nod your head before grinning over at him.

"Yeah, that works too." You grin.

He then takes you home with a quiet car ride. Once you get to your apartment building, he walks you to your door and you two share a small kiss before he then leaves.

As you enter your apartment, you lock the door behind you and lean against the door.

Tonight was one filled with so many different emotions ranging from excitement to horniness to embarrassment to disappointment. However, despite this, the date was still better than you had expected and you're slightly shocked by this.

Maybe if there are more dates in the future, this could actually lead to something. Though, you still don't want to put all of your eggs into one basket.
