《Loving Min Yoongi: How To Love Him》Chapter 41
Advertisement
The gifts were handed out with the same excitement as if they were all kids again. The guys had gotten each other small trinkets they had collected from different markets while on tour. Alex brought over the gift bags she had brought and started passing them out one by one. She had gotten RM a miniature figure of an art piece he had admired from one of the museums they went to. For Tae, she had found a vintage camera that they still made film for. Jimin got an earring with a small gold feather hanging from a diamond stud. She gave Jin a new set of chef's knives, Hobi a cross body bag he had liked at one of the markets but ended up not buying for himself, and Jungkook got a new set of drum sticks and a guitar pick that had been signed by one of the artists he liked.
She sat back on the couch and handed Yoongi his gift, "The larger one you can open now, but the small one save for when everyone is gone." He gave her a questioning look as he opened the large package. It was a tan, leather bound journal, with a grumpy cat design burned onto the front. He looked over at her with a blank stare. She threw her head back and laughed, "I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. Open the cover." He opened it and saw there was an inscription inside from Alex.
"Yoongi,
May you never falter in your thoughts. Whether it comes from your head or your heart; speak it, feel it, live it. Let these pages capture your essence and fill your music.
Lex"
He looked over at her with a smile that reached his eyes and lit up his face. He leaned over and gave her a small kiss on her cheek. "Thank you, Lex, this is perfect. I was actually needing a new journal. Aren't you a quick one." He shook his head and continued smiling as a couple of the guys came over to see what she had gotten him.
RM came from the hallway holding a package that he brought over to Alex. The guys gathered around as she opened it, waiting to see her reaction. As she pulled the paper away, her eyes lit up. It was a photo from their promotional shoot for the documentary. The guys in their suits, her in that killer black satin dress, gathered on the burgundy sofa, and all of them smiling. It felt like a life time ago since that photo had been taken, and so many things had happened since then. The photo had been placed in a beautiful glass frame, and below it was an inscription from the guys with their signatures.

"To our friend, Alex. For the memories we have made, and for the memories yet to come."
Alex felt her heart swell. They really knew how to make a girl feel special. She jumped off the couch and hugged each of them, thanking them for the wonderful gift. "You have no idea how special this is to me. Thank you, all of you, so much!" She kept looking at it, unable to wrap her head around the fact that they liked her, they really liked her.
After they had cleaned up the wrapping paper mess, the guys started heading home one by one. They told Alex goodbye, and wished her safe travels for her flight back home. When the last one left, Yoongi and Alex went back to the couch and sat down.
"So, did you enjoy yourself tonight?" Yoongi rested his head on his fist as he leaned back against the couch.
Alex smiled so big she thought her face would break, "Oh my gosh, it was the best night. You guys really outdid yourselves."
Yoongi smiled back at her. "I have one more gift for you, just from me." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a long, slim jewelry box. Alex's eyes went wide.
"What on earth? You didn't have to do that." She took the box from him. She slowly lifted the lid and gasped when she saw what was inside. A white gold charm bracelet lay against the grey velvet. There were several charms hanging from it. As she looked closely, she realized each charm was from a moment they had shared on the tour so far. A waterfall from their day in Bangkok, a basketball and a reclining Buddha from that day in Fukuoka, a dragonfly with diamond wings from the night she had come over to his house and talked about her tattoo, and the Eiffel Tower. The last one she saw she wasn't so sure about.
"What is the music note for?"
He took the bracelet out and as he put it on her he said, "The music note is from the day on the plane when you listened to the song I made. You listened, and knew what the meaning of the music was. That means a lot to me as an artist, especially when I hadn't put words to it yet."

"So, have you put lyrics to it now?"
Yoongi looked at her and gave her his signature side grin, "Not all the way yet, that will be for another day." He stood up and walked over to the piano. He sat down and ran his fingers across the keys, and began playing a slow tune. It wasn't one she recognized, but whatever he played, it sounded wonderful. He looked over at her and motioned with is head for her to sit in the seat next to him.
Alex got up off the couch and walked over to sit by him at the piano. He stopped playing for a minute and showed her six keys he wanted her to play and how to count out the rhythm. Once she had it down, he played toward the other end of the piano in time to the keys she played. Together, they played the song he had started playing on the piano when he first sat down. When it was done, she looked over at him.
"Is this something new you've been working on? It's not like your other music."
He shook his head, "Its something new, and its something different I've been playing with. What do you think?"
"It's beautiful. It almost sounds like a love song."
He nodded his head. He was looking at her sitting next to him, the Christmas lights behind her, and the candlelight dancing shadows around her face. She took his breath away. Before he could overthink it and mess it up, he reached up to take her chin and pulled her face to his. He softly kissed her lips with his. When he drew back, Alex just stared at him without saying anything. His thoughts started going in circles. Did he mess it up? Did she not like it?
Suddenly Alex took a quick breath in then out. "I'm sorry, I think I quit breathing for a second."
Yoongi threw his head back and laughed. She had the cutest way of being so transparent around him. Suddenly Alex grabbed him on both sides of his face with her hands, and this time she drew him in for a kiss, but this one was longer and deeper. She pulled away while still holding his face. Yoongi slowly opened his eyes and looked at her.
"I think I quit breathing that time." He gave her a cocky side grin and stuck his tongue out to lick the corner of his lip.
Alex shook her head as she smiled at him. "I think I better go, I have to catch a flight tomorrow." She got up from the piano bench and gathered her things to leave.
Yoongi knew he should let her go, while a part of him still wanted to keep her there. He stood up and helped her get her jacket on, and texted Byung-Ho to let him know she was ready. He walked her to the door and gave her one last hug before she left. As she turned to walk out, she looked back at him. Her bias, the man she stanned from afar, had now become a part of her life.
Yoongi walked back into the living room and fell onto the couch while rubbing his hand over his heart. He looked over at Holly who had come up to sit beside him on the couch. "Holly, did you see that? I told you you'd love her." He ruffled Holly's head with his hand. "I have another confession to make," he leaned over and whispered by Holly's ear, "I think I love her, too."
