Jeongguk sat on the couch, busy trying to tie a purple heart shaped ballon to a big bulky present bag with a beautiful sparkly outside, silver glitter stuck to all sides.
Inside, beautifully wrapped presents, one a picture Jeongguk snapped of Taehyung back in the hospital days encased in a selfmade frame sprayed gold and the other an ankle bracelet also coated in the same golden hue, a little heart charm dangling off of it, numbers inform of a date engraved into it.
It had been exactly one year since Jeongguk has been involved in that fateful car accident that would lead him to who he would call -- the love of his life.
It had been one year since he had first met Taehyung in that one hospital room, just getting in from having his two legs wrapped in casts, his now boyfriend rather cold and rude at the time.
But things turned between the two eventually with one toss of pills from one to the other, some talks and sudden kisses that made things turn from strangers to eventually friends with giddy feelings for one another to what they are labeling themselves as now -- boyfriends.
They had been through downs, being in a hospital, battling with severe illness, to ups, the biggest one probably being Taehyung finally getting a new kidney, saving his life in the long run.
Gguk remembers the day like it was only a week ago, sitting next to a still deeply sleeping Taehyung, grazing his forehead softly, sneaking under the cover to intertwine their hands together until he eventually woke up, eyes fluttering open slowly, his orbs sparkling with confusion.
It took a minute or two for him to recall going into surgery but tears instantly glazed his eyes upon realizing -- realizing that a seemingly endless nightmare of medication and pain stuck to a midly uncomfortable hospital bed was actually over.
The rest is a blur in Gguk's mind just recalling leaning in to press a firm kiss to his now boyfriend's, like they promised they would be afterwards, lips, still remembering the slightly sweet vanilla taste coating his tongue as the other pulled him closer by his nape.
