Chapter 2 - Forever
That night, Seungri had trouble falling asleep. Many ideas were running in his brain on what he needs to do with his lover before they bid this world farewell. At 4am, his eyes started to feel heavy and his head was beginning to ache. He needed to sleep, there were so many things to do later on in the day. He hugged Jiyong closer and whispered an ‘I love you’ to his sleeping lover before he let sleep cover his tired eyes.

It was 12 pm when Jiyong woke up to find Seungri missing.
Worried about his lover, he quickly got up to find him. "Where could he be?” he thought as he started to get dressed.
A yellow post it pasted on the dressing table caught Jiyong's attention. It was addressed to him, the scraggly handwriting on the note definitely belonged to Seungri.
‘Good afternoon hyungnim :) Miss me? Quickly wash-up and meet me at the park! Don't bother deciding what to wear, I already picked an outfit for you. Palli, your baby miss you :* <3 Ri baby’
Jiyong glanced over to see the outfit Seungri picked out for him. It was a black V neck shirt and grey jeans alongside his favourite Louboutin sneakers. Simple yet stylish, Seungri loves it when his boyfriend was not too overdressed. Jiyong wondered what his lover was up to. Excited to find out, he hurriedly showered and got ready before he made his way to their favorite park.
The park where he was headed to was indeed a special place as it held so many valuable memories. During their trainee days, the two of them would hang out there after practice to unwind. On off days, they would camp there so that they could sleep under the stars. As years went by, they got closer and it was at that special place that their love for each other blossomed.
12 December 2008, Jiyong planned a very special birthday celebration for Seungri at their favourite park. Jiyong also took the opportunity to inform the birthday boy that he had intense feelings for him. It took Jiyong a lot of courage to confess his love, he was afraid that he would scare Seungri off and ruin their close relationship. To his delight, his love for the younger man was reciprocated and they shared their first kiss there at the park on Seungri’s 18th birthday.

Jiyong parked his car and jogged towards their favourite spot - under the shade of the large tree. There Seungri was, resting on a picnic mat with a picnic basket by his side. He was dressed in a grey button up and dark blue jeans, very simple but he still looked charming. As soon as he saw Jiyong approaching him, he straightened up and shifted to make space for his boyfriend.
“Hey there,” Jiyong placed a kiss on Seungri’s cheek and settled himself on the picnic mat, “Why are we here baby?”
“To eat lunch of course! What took you so long, I’m famished!” Seungri whined, pouting his lips and rubbing his tummy.
Jiyong chuckled and kissed his lover on the lips, “You’re definitely the king of aegyo, Ri.”
Seungri flashed Jiyong a huge grin before he turned his attention to the picnic basket. “Look what I brought for us today!” Seungri carefully took out the contents of the picnic basket and placed them on the mat. There was so much food, all of which were Jiyong’s favourites. Seungri specially woke up early on that day to prepare for their picnic lunch.
“Oh my, is this what I think this is?” Jiyong gushed as he picked up a bowl of ramen.
Seungri nodded, “Your favourite ramen from that corner shop, quickly eat it before it turns cold hyung.”
Jiyong was about to tuck in when Seungri suddenly shouted “WAIT WAIT WAIT, don’t eat that yet, put it down!” Jiyong was utterly confused.
“We need to take pictures first,” Seungri pulled out a Polaroid camera from the basket and began to photograph their picnic spread. As soon as the pictures developed, Seungri kept them in a folder.
“What are you going to do with them Ri?” Jiyong asked, wondering what his lover was up to.
Seungri replied with a big smile on his face, “I’m going to make a scrap book out of them, I want to document our happy moments together. We should take a picture together too dear!”
Seungri pulled his lover closer and both of them posed cutely before Seungri pressed the shutter button on the camera.

“I’m so full!” Jiyong exclaimed as he rubbed his tummy with a satisfied grin on his face.
“Ah, me too, I feel like I’m going to burst!” Seungri flopped down onto the picnic mat.
Jiyong followed suit and hugged his lover tightly. He brought his mouth close to his boyfriend’s ear and whispered words of gratitude. Seungri turned his face and gave him a peck on the lips, “Your welcome”.
Jiyong then rested his head on Seungri’s chest, listening to his heart beat, “Your heart is beating really fast baby.”
“That’s because I’m really nervous,” Seungri stated.
Jiyong sat up and laced his slender long fingers with Seungri’s, “What’s wrong?”
Seungri chuckled and shook his head, assuring Jiyong that there was nothing wrong.
“I wanted to ask you something for a really long time, but I never got the chance to. But after what you told me yesterday, I think this is it. It’s time,” Seungri said in one breath.
Jiyong furrowed his brow, “What is it Ri?”
Seungri sat up and pulled a little black velvet box from his back pocket. He opened the cover to reveal a simple silver band.
Seungri took a deep breath and asked the question he had been dying to ask his lover, “Marry me? I love you, I want to be with you forever Jiyong.”
Jiyong was definitely shocked, he never expected Seungri to do the proposing. He could feel his eyes misting over, making his vision blurry, he was really touched.
Speechless, all he could do was smile and nod, giving Seungri a positive response.
Seungri slipped the ring onto Jiyong’s ring finger and hugged his future husband tightly. Jiyong wept on Seungri’s shoulder, feeling a rush of emotions surging through him. Seungri felt his lover’s body quivering, so he hugged him tighter and rubbed his back soothingly.
“What’s wrong baby?” Seungri whispered into Jiyong’s ear.
Jiyong released himself from Seungri’s tight embrace to give Seungri a light kiss on the lips. ”Nothing love, I’m just really happy,” Jiyong gave Seungri a deep passionate kiss this time as Seungri wiped away Jiyong’s tears.
Once the kiss ended, Jiyong reached for the camera and took a picture of his ring. “We need to document this too!”
“You should probably take a picture of the underside too, Ji,” Seungri suggested.
Upon hearing Seungri’s suggestion, Jiyong turned his hand over to find an engraving on the underside of the ring.
‘SR <3 JY’
