Today

The memory replayed in his mind again and again and again...

"Baby?"

"Oh, um yeah Kookie?"

"Do you like it?" the younger asked, gesturing towards the old tree that Jimin had sat under, thought under, kissed under, fucked under--uh, the tree was decorated with a bunch of lights, probably by Jungkook.

"Oh wow, Kook. It's beautiful. Thank you. But what's all this for?" Jimin had taken notice of all the rose petals that littered the blanket set just under the shade of the tree's branches. Champagne seemed to be abundant as it sat in a cooler next to two glasses.

"Well, this tree means so much to you. That part I know. But I don't think I ever told you how much it means to me. That day when I told you I loved you was a great day. A part of me always felt like you had already known since I don't think your face had even changed until like 3 seconds later when you faked surprise. It was so cute."

Jimin remembered now. That day was the same day that he had planned to tell Yoongi...

But Jimin hadn't accounted for how much Jungkook loved him.

"That was also our second night together. I mean, after our little adventure with Yoongi. What a fucking mistake, right?"

Jimin laughed. He knew it was a mistake. But maybe not for the right reasons.

Jungkook led him to sit down on the blanket, he seemed to be looking for something in his pocket. Probably the keys, he must've forgotten to lock the car.

"Anyway, baby," Jungkook continued as Jimin realized he had the keys to the jeep. "We have been through some rough patches. You've always been by my side. Even when I was going through all that alcohol shit and was taking it out on you, you just took it, all my anger and jealousy, and made sure I was safe in bed after a long night."

Jimin remembered that, Yoongi had just started dating Jaeun. Jungkook thought Jimin had been cheating on him with Hobi. It took a lot of effort on Jimin's part to get the jealous boy to understand that Jimin had a job with Hoseok, not a relationship. It took even more effort to get Jungkook to quit drinking.

"After all the stuff I have put you through, you always stay and I love you for it."

What a funny reason to love somebody.

"So, because of all of this and because I love you, I want to stay with you forever."

Jimin finally spoke up, "R-really?"

"Yeah, baby."

The older only started to grasp what Jungkook was getting at when the brunette took out a little box that he opened up and in it, was a platinum ring with the initials J.J.K. engraved onto it.

"So, wanna get married?"
