On the table he'd left a tape.
Sure, the VHS player had died out in favour of the DVD player years ago, but Jonghyun had just so conveniently managed to set one up to the TV in the bedroom. Though the tape had a label, it was decorated from each corner with metallic love-heart stickers and quickly scribbled "I love you"s, written in any language he could think of, in a whole variety of coloured glittery gel-pens, an indication of his need to make things as romantic as he possibly could. He'd spent the best part of the morning working on this tape. On it, was evidence of such. [ PRESS PLAY ] [ PLAYING ► 0:00 / 4:30 ] The first image to grace the screen was that of Jonghyun smiling sheepishly at the camera, his eyes curving into little crescents. Laid across his lap was his acoustic guitar which he held in place by the neck, the same guitar he'd played for you with on a few occasions across the span of the past twenty-two months. "Happy monthiversary, baby. I love you. I wanted to do something special for you today, and I remember you telling me how much you enjoy it when I sing to you. And..hey, there's something romantic about VHS tapes, right? Heh heh. Without further ado, I'm going to perform for you." And just like he stated in the video, without further ado, Jonghyun began to sing.
"I need you right here, by my side Cause you're everything I'm not in my life. We're indestructible, we are untouchable Nothing can take us down tonight You are so beautiful, it should be criminal That you could be mine.
And we will make it out alive I'll promise you this love will never die!
No matter what, I got your back I'll take a bullet for you if it comes to that I swear to God we'll be okay.
So believe me when I say, you're the one They'll never forgive us for the things we've done
And we will make it out alive I'll promise you this love will never die!
No matter what, I got your back I'll take a bullet for you if it comes to that I swear to God that in the bitter end We're gonna be the last ones standing We'll never fall, we'll never fade I'll promise you forever and my soul today No matter what until the bitter end We're gonna be the last ones standing
And everybody said that we would never last, And if they saw us now I bet they'd take it back It doesn't matter what we do or what we say 'Cause nothing matters anyway!
No matter what, I got your back I'll take a bullet for you if it comes to that I swear to God that in the bitter end We're gonna be the last ones standing We'll never fall, we'll never fade I'll promise you forever and my soul today No matter what until the bitter end We're gonna be the last ones standing" With that, he muttered a soft "I love you" in English before smiling and shutting off the camera.
