ummmmmm youngjae's birthday post on instagram????? what do you mean my heart just exploded into a million pieces???? I'm not crying at all??? High school sweethearts??? whAT DID YOU JUST SAY
My dear anon,
WHAT??? WHO SAYS I’M STILL CRYING A DAY LATER???
I just??? have so many emotions???? Like…… okay, first of all, I would have loved a RECENT selca of the two of them, but the fact that this is from predebut at the filming for their music video??? HAS YOUNGJAE HAD THIS PICTURE ON HIS PHONE FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS??? I mean, I can’t help thinking about the possibility that this is the very first 2jae selca. At the very least, the earliest we’ve ever seen!?! (Though if anyone else knows of another predebut 2jae selca, PLEASE SEND IT TO ME!!) Ahhh, I just have so many emotions about the picture itself… and then the fact that Youngjae hasn’t made a instagram post for any of his members birthdays over the whole last year… but then he’s one of only two members (plus Mark’s dad) to post for his Jaebumie hyung’s birthday??? Ahhh…. so many emotions.
AND THE HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEARTS VIBE. I’m still screaming inside. Just the idea of tiny first year Youngjae being the cutest, goofiest kid and upperclassman Jaebum with the cool, chic image meeting him and them falling for each other… Jaebum waiting at Youngjae’s desk for him before class, and Youngjae always showing up only just before class starts because he oversleeps and making Jaebum late for his own classes, but Jaebum doesn’t even care, lingering every day just so he can ruffle Youngjae’s hair and shove some sort of snack or drink at him and then stroll out all casually cool. Youngjae acting like he hates it because “it’s embarrassing, hyung. People keep staring and asking me about you.” and Jaebum all like, “Good. They’d better know you’re mine.” (And then his awkward nerd self coming out like, “You are mine, right?” and Youngjae having to reassure him with affection because Jaebum is a needy child.) But Youngjae actually loves it and he probably locks himself in a bathroom and cries at Jaebum’s graduation because he doesn’t want him to leave… and then Jaebum switches to waiting at the gate for him before and after school, and Youngjae complains about him looking like a creeper, but he’s secretly always happy when he sees Jaebum waiting for him, and………. OKAY, I’LL STOP.Â
Anyway. I rambled forever, but I love this picture and everything it implies and suggests and just… yes. I love 2jae and their love for each other so so much.
