Lexi's chapter for the solo perf :)

I didn't get the chance to talk to Seungri again, after singing two set of songs, it's now time for our solo performances. CL took the stage first, followed by Minzy, then Dara, then Bom and finally Me. I was told to perform last as a comeback stage performance since the accident.
 

I was told to change to another outfit for my solo performance and retouched my make-up by the coordi unnies. My heart was pounding out of my chest when I couldn't find Seungri or Youngbae at the backstage. I will be coming out of a lift in the middle of the stage, while Youngbae or Seungri will be coming out from the side of the stage during the first chorus.
 

The VCR started to play, and I was cued that I'll be lifted up in 10 seconds. My heart pounded more at the countdown that I'm hearing from my ear piece. I just have to focus, and do this professionally, with or without Youngbae. I'm gonna tackle Seungri after this.
 

As soon as the music started I was lifted up the stage dramatically with the spotlight focused on me. Fans of different ages screamed while waving their pink light sticks and towel banners saying "Lexi Jang Fighting!" A mission from the fans that truly is heartwarming. I couldn't help but smile seeing all the fans cheering for me. And right on cue, I started to sing and dance... "Haruedo myeot beonssik neol bomyeo useo nan..."
 

I sing and danced the way Youngbae choreographed and coached it. I hope he's watching me right now and I hope he's proud with what I'm doing. I hope he knows that I'm doing this for him.
 

I moved to every beat, pouring my heart, mind and even sweat to every move my muscle could do, until the chorus came. The other dancers came in and lastly a familiar figure stopped beside me and danced with me. There he is in black jacket and pants and white wifebeater underneath. His Mo-hawk is slicker and I'd bet that he's wearing make up right now. My eyes obviously widen in surprise and almost stopped but I managed to catch up with the steps. Youngbae's face is serious, but a hint of smirk on his lips was obvious. I had to suppress a smile because it's not part of the choreography, or else it'll spoil the concept of the song. Right now I sing and danced more confidently, now that Youngbae's with me and doing it with me, just like what I have planned. I had a glimpse at the side of the backstage and saw my girls, Minzy, CL, Bom and Dara with Seungri watching my set. They all had smiles and I'd bet they're also giggling. Though I'm still gonna remember to tackle Seungri later for nearly giving me hypertension.
 

The song then almost came to an end when an idea popped in my head. When the part of choreography where in Youngbae runs and slides on his knees and his face landed on my tummy with his hands on my waist, I suddenly remember what I did during my alone time practice with him.
 

"Neol naman barabwa~~~" I sang the last line. But instead of pushing Youngbae away from me, I cupped his face, and looked at him.  Youngbae's eyes widen a little, sensing what's on my mind and what I'm gonna do next. His eyes worried, staring back at me. Instead, I stared at him lovingly and bent down, before planting a kiss on his lips; just like what I did during our practice. I heard eardrum-busting screams from the crowd. I felt his lips tensed with what I did, but when I released him from my kiss, he had a satisfied smirk on his lips. I had an ear splitting grin on my face as I offered a hand to help him up. He was about to leave the stage, but I didn't released his hand from my hold. Instead, I started to speak.
 

"Kamsahamnida yeorbun!" I screamed, which made the fans scream as well. "Blackjacks, let me introduce to you the person who keeps my heart skip a beat, Mr. Dong Youngbae!" I screamed as adrenaline rushed over me while Youngbae's hold of my hand tightened. He gaped at me and looked at me in disbelief. The crowd hooted and made sounds of 'oohh' and 'aawww'
 

"It's the first time I've ever felt like this towards a person. And so I'm asking you guys to give us love and support for revealing this..." I said and another set of "Aawww" filled the air. I felt Youngbae pulled my hand and leaned closer to me.
 

"I wanted to say something..." Youngbae almost shouted to my ear so I could hear him. I'm not sure what he's gonna say but he looked so confident. I then handed him the mic. "Don't worry Blackjacks, I love Lexi, and I'm taking care of her..." He said, making the crowd cheer and handed the mic back to me. I couldn't help but smile and blush with what he said.
 

"Thank you everyone! Enjoy the rest of the night!" I screamed and running off the stage hand in hand with Youngbae. The crowd screamed as well as we faded from their view.
 

Behind the stage, my girls and -surprisingly- the rest of the Big Bang members were there as well, they hooted as we approached them. Youngbae engulfed me into a bear hug even if Top and Jiyong are ruffling his well fixed hair.
 

"I love you! You're so crazy! How could you do that?" Youngbae almost yelled repeatedly and I could just laugh in response. Daesung, Dara and Bom-unnie joined our hug while CL, Minzy and Seungri hooted as if we won a marathon or something. It was chaotic but my face could split in half from the smile and happiness that I'm feeling.
 

"Guys I'm sorry but the show isn't over yet! Girls go back to your places!" The floor director yelled as he tried to break us up. We apologized and the four girls went on their places while I was dragged to the nearest make-shift changing room to change my top into the event/anniversary shirt for our last two songs on stage. I joined the group on stage after a minute while making spills.
 

After two sets, we wrapped it up by giving thanks to the people who made the show possible, the dancers went up on stage and we called out the rest of Big Bang members including Youngbae. We then gave a 90 degrees bow and waved before exiting the stage and took a memorabilia picture with the whole crowd. It was amazing; as if we performed a real concert. Again, backstage, we said our thanks and congratulations to each other and to the people behind the stage.
 

We changed to another set of clothes to meet and greet the fans and sign albums and other merchandise while the guys and other friends waited for us in the waiting room.
 

Hyunsuk-sajangnim then took us out for a celebratory dinner in some restaurant after the whole event. It was like Christmas and we were full of merriment and laughter.
 

I found Seungri pouring Soju shots. Never forgetting what he did to me earlier, I slung my arm to his shoulders and playfully tackled him.

"I surrender noonim! I can explain!" He said with his hands raised, surrendering and prettending to choke.

"You quite gave me a heart attack there earlier..." I was supposed to prettend I was angry but I couldn't help but laugh.

"It was Youngbae-hyung's idea. And I thought that you were supposed to surprise him, might as well give you a surprise too..." Seungri explained. "He said he wanted to surprise you, I don't understand but hyung said he's making most of the time with you. I told you I'm the perfect person for this!" Seungri winked.

I rolled my eyes off from him but a smirk was evident in my lips. "Aigoo, you should've told me... But thank you though... We're quits now right?"

"Quits! But I'm always here whenever... Shot?" He winked again as he handed me a shot of Soju. I took it and clinked the glass with him.

While eating dessert, I excitedly ate a spoonful of ice cream and noticed someone was watching me. I looked at my left and saw Youngbae smiling watching me enjoying my chocolate ice cream. "What?" I asked and returned his gaze after swallowing a spoonfull.
 

"Nothing, I just find you amusing..." Youngbae said with his signature eye-smile and hint of chuckle.
 

"Yah!" I whined, hitting his arm playfully, making him chuckle some more. I just continued eating my ice cream, but then I noticed him still watching me.
 

"Ah wae?!" I complained with my eyebrows creasing, prettending to be annoyed.
 

Still smiling and without any word, Youngbae took my left hand. "Now that we're legal, I guess it's also legal for you to wear this..." He started as he took a silver ring from his left pinky and placed it on my left ring finger. I noticed his left ring finger with the similar silver band with mine. I was lost for words right then and there and my mouth just dropped and stared at my hand. This day is just full of surprises!
 

I immediately took my phone and took a picture of my hand with Youngbae's hand, showing our identical or should I say, couple rings. I posted it on Instagram and Twitter with the caption "LEGAL" in all caps. Making Youngbae regrammed it right after. Soon, dozens of likes, retweets, tweets, comments and mentions popped up. Netizens got crazy and so as the internet media. I'm pretty sure YGEnt. will be giving their official statement sooner or later.
 

It was already midnight when we said goodbyes. I opted to have a ride home with Youngbae instead of going to the van with the rest of the 2ne1 members. We were surprised when there were group of fans and paparazzi waiting for us outside. Good thing papa YG got us some crowd control. But also, there were persistent photographers who almost blinded my sight from their flashes when Youngbae and I hurriedly rode his car at the valet.
 

"That was crazy..." Youngbae said as he drove off.
 

"Yeah..." I almost mumbled, looking back at the scene.
 

"Are you okay baby?" Youngbae asked as he reached for my hand and kissed the top of it. I smiled and nodded yes. He never failed to make my heart skip a beat.
 

After about ten minutes, I noticed Youngbae tensed a bit and immediately took a right turn even without clicking a signal.

 

"Hey babe, what's wrong?" I asked and saw him taking a glimpse on the rear view mirror.

 

"I think someone's following us..." He said, focusing back to the road but still taking glimpses on the rear view mirror. I looked back, Youngbae made a turn again without hitting the signal light, and the car from our back still followed us.

 

"Bae, it's still following us..." I said almost panicking.

"Hold on babe..." Youngbae then made a sudden turn to a highway and sped off, hitting the gas pedals. His knuckles almost turned white from his grip on the stirring wheel. I looked back again and saw the car behind us also gaining speed.

 

"They're gaining on us..." I said. "I think they're rats!" I almost exlaimed when I saw the person at the passenger seat holding a camera with long lens.

 

"Hold on babe..." Youngbae said and hit the gas pedals again, looking at the car speed, we're hitting 160kph. Then suddenly there was a huge set of lights came out front, overtaking a car in front of it. With just a second or two, my vision was blinded, all I could see is white light. "I love you Lexi..." I faintly heard Youngbae mixed with the screeching sound of brakes, breaking glasses and crunching metals. Then there was total blackness.
