G-Dragon and You

Girlfriend

Girlfriend

You stared at Jiyong sitting across from you, fidgeting in his seat and looking at his hands nervously, waiting for an answer.

"Well...? What do you say?" His voice was shaking, and you knew under those sunglasses, his puppy eyes begged for you to say "yes", or even an "okay". This was probably the hundredth, thousandth, or even millionth time he had brought up the question, which had always left you indecisive.

"Ya~ I was thinking...we've been friends for nearly 3 years now, and I really want to take it a step further," you had heard these lines many times before, and you knew the question that was coming up next. Jiyong had taken a small sip from his drink. "_______, will you be my girlfriend?"

Many times you rejected him, and he understood, with his busy schedule and vicious fangirls ready to kill you if they found out about the relationship. However, this time, he wasn't so ready to accept no for an answer. There was an awkward silence before you gave your usual reply.

"No...Jiyong, you know how it is." Immediately, his face fell. "Maybe we could just be friends. What benefits would us in a relationship have, anyway? Sure, we can kiss and be all romantic. But how would fangirls take that? They'll slaughter me. And dates... I know all you want is a proper date, right? The amount of dates we'll have will be the same as now, with your busy schedule. Aren't we having a date now?"

You gestured to the café surroundings around you. Jiyong hushed you, and you lowered your voice, unaware that you had attracted the unwanted attention of other patrons. Jiyong leaned forward and adjusted his SnapBack, careful not to reveal the colourful rainbow hair beneath it which would send paparazzi flooding into the café. He placed one clammy hand on top of your's.

"But, I really love you, I really do. I want to call you honey, and openly show that I adore -"

"Jiyong, it's difficult, I'm sorry."

He seemed taken aback by my curt reply, sat back, and muttered under his breath, "Aish...I guess this was for nothing, again. Do you need more time or...?" He looked up at me after deliberation. "_______, tell me the truth, do you not feel the same way towards me? If you don't, I can just give up."

You wrapped your hands around your glass of iced lemon tea and sighed, taking a look at Jiyong's face. This boy has millions of fans, tons of money and certainly good looks. Of course anyone would think you were crazy if you didn't accept his request. What they don't know is that Jiyong is the sweetest boy on earth. His tongue gets tied whenever he talks to you, and even though you both are not together, he still gives you chocolates and playful kisses on the cheek, offering to pay for your shopping although you try to decline. You thought back on the other girlfriend proposals. He once brought you to the beach and presented you with a bouquet of flowers.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" His arms were outstretched, waiting for you to accept the flowers. You were elated he had asked, and he even looked so cute. You had never seen the G-Dragon so shy around anyone.

But you knew that there would be so many consequences.

After another conversation which left him upset, you tackled him to the sand and told him that you would accept when the time was right. You talked at the beach, watching the sunset, until it began raining, both of you rushing to shelter, leaving the poor bouquet of flowers soaking at the beach, which you had forgotten. Jiyong immediately ran back into the rain and retrieved it, and although he felt that he should have thrown it away, you kept it.

You thought back at your bedroom. Those flowers may still be a little soggy and droopy, but they're fighting to stand up in the vase of water you put them in. They're still beautiful, because Jiyong gave them to you.

He sings the sweetest songs to you, that no one ever hears, and dances on your request when both of you are alone. During late nights while he did some songwriting, he would subconsciously touch your earlobe unexpectedly to relieve stress. He would even do gwiyomi as many times as you wished. You're the girl he's ready to love, and put all his effort in to make you happy, because you're special to him, and he's always smiling around you.

That was when it hit you. He may be talented, sexy and charming, but the part of him that always made your heart race the most were the little gestures of his. You really do love Kwon Jiyong.

"Yes."

Jiyong was surprised for a while. "Yes...w-what?" He stuttered, unable to collect his thoughts for a second.

"Yes, I'll be your girlfriend!" You declared confidently, trying not to giggle at Jiyong's confused expression. Suddenly, he began smiling, and behind those sunglasses, you could see the genuine tears of joy rolling down his cheeks. He barely ever cried, and if he did, it was for someone he truly loved and cherished.

Before you knew it, he had taken off his sunglasses and gotten up from his seat, your face cupped in his hands, his luscious lips crashing into your's. Your stomach was full of butterflies, heart pounding against your chest.

At that moment, you knew you were finally his.
