you're my one and only ; yeongyu

32; bottle

half of the bottle was a calm ocean, with a seagull flying above it, and the other half was a rocky sea, with the seagull drowning within it.

"however, as you can see, it is not always sunshine and rainbows. one day, the seagull decided to dive deeper into the ocean, only for it to start raining and swept the seagull into the ocean's waves."

"the first time i've felt terrified being around him was this year, when he lashed out at me. we never fight, and even if we do, we resolve it within a few hours. but this fight lasted way longer than expected. he said some things that were hurtful, but i admit that i was in the wrong for not confiding and talking to him about my issues."

"don't you dare call me hyung ever again."

time has passed since then, but yeonjun's words still lingered in beomgyu's mind.

"he sent me a voicemail a few days after not contacting me, and he cried. i remembered feeling like utter crap that day when i played the voicemail, and we met up to apologise. things went downhill after that too, and we both said things that we both regret until today."

"you are a monster."

"we patched things up, and some time passed when we started dating."

once he said that, the whole auditorium gasped, and some squealed.

"i was happy. i thought that my feelings were not one sided, and they were reciprocated. he did make me feel loved, but after confirmation that we were together made me even happier. he always looked out for me, making sure i was okay since i always had the tendency to be overwhelmed easily. being together was something that made me really happy. however, we broke up."

the hall now went silent, and some people 'aww'ed to show their pity.

"i would not describe the details, but it was practically insane. both of us were pretty much sobbing messes during that week. even though we ended on rocky terms, i guess it was for the better. i've been healing, and my feelings are still there for him, and i think they will stay here for a long while."

beomgyu stared into yeonjun's eyes, and noticed that they were damp. he did a good job suppressing it, trying to keep his smile up to try and hide whatever emotion he was feeling.

"we haven't fully patched up yet, but he is here today, so i want to take this opportunity to say things that i want to say before i chicken out."

"he will forever be my favourite eldest hyung. ever since day 1, i will always admire him for being him."

"i love seeing him smile fondly at stray cats and dogs before bringing then back home, only for them to he rejected by his mother because of her allergy to pet fur."

"i love seeing him finish a whole bowl of ramen within minutes, because of how much he likes it."

"i love seeing him whine to his parents about wanting siblings so he wouldn't be lonely, before crashing over in my house to have impromptu sleepovers while he complains to me about only having me as his 'brother'."

"i love seeing his disgusted face whenever he accidentally eats cilantro and washing it down with a whole glass of water."

"i love how tender hearted he is, he is very easily touched and tears up often when watching films or rewatching old videos of his friends."

"i love his passion for dancing, and how he takes it seriously despite so many people judging him for going down his route."

"and finally, i love him most because he is very genuine and stays true to himself. i know he is often pressured to be perfect in everyone's eyes, but hopefully after this he would love himself too."

beomgyu stopped talking, not knowing how to end it off. he took a final look at yeonjun, who was covering his mouth with his hands, eyes visibly even more glassy than before.

"i love you hyung."

——————————————————————————

yeonjun didn't even know where he was going. his legs took control of his entire body, and they were dragging him to backstage. the others were cheering for beomgyu, so they covered him, which allowed yeonjun to be able to run backstage without anyone noticing.

he immediately bumped into beomgyu backstage, and instantly lunged onto him, beomgyu's scent instantly filling his nose.

"what was that?" yeonjun mumbled, soft enough for beomgyu to hear.

"is it going to be a tradition from now on to cry at each others' graduations?" beomgyu joked, hugging yeonjun tight.

"i didn't cry." yeonjun lied, pulling away with a pout on his face.

beomgyu laughed, and cupped his hands around yeonjun's face, wiping his tear streaks away.

"liar, you're literally crying now," beomgyu said, "the oldest but the crybaby with the softest heart."

yeonjun playfully smacked beomgyu, and the younger exclaimed exaggeratedly.

"i love you too," yeonjun said after a while, and beomgyu just smiled to himself. "i'm sorry that i hurt you."

beomgyu doesn't respond, but yeonjun knows how he felt. he didn't have to say it back for yeonjun to know that beomgyu loved him.

maybe they will be okay.

a/n: a bit of an abrupt ending but yuhhh

actually maybe i should have mentioned this but there is no way they can actually date each other from this point onwards, so if you were expecting and yeongyu ending then i apologise:((

the ending is kinda sloppy because i kind of gave up in the end ㅠㅠ but i'll probably redo it later on~

christmas is coming?? oh god time passes so quickly:((

thank you for reading🤍🤍
