“Ya, are you crying?” Junkyu puts a hand over my shoulder and I chuckled.
“I was just reminiscing.” I say, wiping the tears that are threatening to fall.
“Pull yourself together before Hyunsuk hyung changes his mind.” Yoshi slapped my back and of course I have to fight back.
“Hyung, you’ll ruin the suits!” Junghwan scolded and I looked at our maknae feeling nostalgia once again. I looked at my members and everyone’s present.
“Tch, ya Park Jihoon! tearing up again?” I straightened up when the door opened and everyone went back to their places before we all get an earful from Hyunsukie.
I dusted off my suit and clasped my hands together as he enters. My heart beats louder as I wait for him.
He looks dapper in his suit, his hair neatly styled. I couldn’t talk him out of his chains but thankfully none of his huge rings. I chuckled and he raised a brow at me as if to ask what I’m laughing about.
“Jihoon?” I stopped sobbing and tried to hold it in when I hear footsteps coming down the emergency exit’s stairwell where I was sitting on. I looked up to see Hyunsuk hyung and tried wiping my tears but it kept falling. He held my hand and squatted down, giving me a gentle smile that lit up the darkest depths of my mind. “It’s ok. You can lean on me.”
Ever since then, I knew I had fallen head over heels for him. He became my strength when I was out of YG and had became my weakness when I came back. Cause how am I supposed to hold back how I feel for him when it just keeps getting stronger everyday?
Every time we spend some time alone I’ve been holding myself back in telling him how I feel. We’re the leaders of the group. The group is our utmost priority. We can’t be selfish even if I want to be most of the time when I’m with him.
Since I’m unable to say something, I decided to do something. I couldn’t say it but I’m able to act on it so that’s what I did.
But then he felt the same. We were once away from civilization and cameras that one time for Rakkidol. My world stopped when he confessed. He was straightforward and cool about it while I lost my composure and almost lost my breath.
We kissed that night. It was magical. Magical cause we had to pretend like nothing happened the next day or the days after that. We had a mutual silent agreement. Not only for the group, but for our dreams.
“ Breathe .” Junkyu nudged me and I shyly glare at him before I focus back to Hyunsukie as he comes closer.
“Are you two bickering again?” He squints his eyes at us.
“No… ok, maybe a bit.” He snickered, shaking his head.
“Are you just going to stand there?” Yoshi snorted and I hurriedly held his hand and guided it to the crook of my elbows as we continued walking forward.
I looked at the crowd one last time, teulights shining brightly like the stars. I looked at my members and smiled at how far we’ve come.
Twenty-Five Years. Our Final Year. I can’t believe our idol life has finally come to an end. I felt my eyes sting as it starts to water, taking everything in.
“Once again, we have been TREASURE!” With our hands clasped together, we raised it and bowed deeply for our beloved Treasure Makers for the last time after a long time.
I looked to my left and squeezed his hand. He glanced over to me and smiled, squeezing my hand back. We did it. We straightened up and waved to our cheering fans.
The officiant cleared his throat, looking at me. “Oh. I do!” I cupped sukkie’s cheeks and kissed him. I hear some groans from the maknaes and some laughter. Hyunsuk turns red as he slaps my chest. “Jihoonie babo! You haven’t even said your vows yet!” He whispers with laughter. Oops.
“I, Park Jihoon, take you, Choi Hyunsuk as my waffle—“ he bursts out laughing, making me too along with the members and guests. You know how contagious his laugh is.
“As my lawfully wedded husband,” I continue after more laughter as he just can’t stop cracking up. “To have and to hold, my most precious treasure.”
He turned emotional as I slipped the ring on his finger. “I now pronounce you Partners for Life.”
“This is when you kiss me.” He teased, grinning as he pulls my collar and I meet him halfway. I feel his smile in our kiss. Finally, the moment is ours.
