And You Were Here Today

Rewind

June 13, 2005.

"Okay!" Woohyuk cleared his throat, "Today I will be proposing to my lovely boyfriend," he smiled brightly at the camera.

He took out a small black box from his pocket, showing it off to the camera.

"He's in the shower right now... he thinks I forgot our anniversary," he chuckled, "How can I forget? June 13...14 years ago....The day we made it official," he glanced at the box in his hands, stroking it as he let out a sigh.

He continued to play with the box, stroking the cap as if he wanted to open it. He struggled with the box for a couple of minutes before finally opening, reveling a beautiful silver engagement ring.

"Tony doesn't really like big diamonds and stuff, so I went with something simple" he said as he pushed the ring closer to the camera, "Silver, it has these little lines along the edges. It's really nice," He looked at the inside of the ring, "I also had a message engraved in it. Hope he likes it," he smiled.

Woohyuk heard the bathroom slam from the kitchen. He panicked as he tried to place the ring back in its box. Footsteps were closing in his way.

Shit shit shit... wait! The camera!

He tried to hide the camera from Tonys view, and in doing so, he dropped the ring making it roll down the couch.

Tony stood a couple feet away from Woohyuk. He wore a bathroom robe with a towel resting over his shoulders. His hands were crossed, starring at Woohyuk who was crawling towards the couch.

"what are you doing"

Woohyuk froze, looking back at his partner, " I-I was just," he slowly started to wipe the floor with his hands, "cleaning the floor...?"

"mhm" Tony walked towards the fridge, completely ignoring Woohyuk frantically going below the couch.

"Right okay, cleaning the floor, at least you remember that," he rolled his eyes.

Tony passed by Woohyuk. Not once taking a look at him. Woohyuk bit his lip, unsure if he should do it now or later. He didn't like it when Tony got this way, but then again it was his fault for pretending to forget such a special day for them.

What if he brakes up with me because of this...

"T-Tony! Wait!"

Tony stopped on his tracks, "what."

"I-I want to ask you something..."

Tony turned to face Woohyuk. He was ready to give him a piece of his mind for forgetting their anniversary, ready to finally slap that stupid little smile off his face he's had all morning. How can he be so happy and not once mention their anniversary??

If he asks me if I'm mad, oh ill show him mad!

He turned. Woohyuk  kneeled on one knee. A black box going from one hand to the other. Tony's anger disappeared at that moment.

"W-What do you want to ask me?" he said with a soft tone.

"I-" Woohyuk cleared his throat once again. Opening the little black box with a shaky hand, "I- Tony..." the silver ring appeared onto Tonys view, tears forming in his eyes.

"Tony, will you marry me?"

"Tony, will you marry me?"

Tony smiled at the words of his fiancée. He paused. Rewind. Replayed.

"Tony, will you marry me?"

He cried at his words. He paused. Rewind. Replayed.

"Tony, will you marry me?"

"Yes, I will" He responded back to the video, "....I miss you...."

He closed the video camera. Drying his tears with a nearby tissue paper. He laid on his back, staring at the celling.

He gently stroked the ring on his finger, "Till death due us apart..." he kissed his ring, "but we never even got to say our vows."
