"I can't believe it's been two years already..." Yunho let his tears fall as he kneeled in front of the two graves.

"I just can't believe they're gone." Hongjoong sighed as he felt Seonghwa's arm tighten around his waist to support him. "I didn't even get to say goodbye."

"None of us did." Yeosang frowned.

The six men surrounded the two graves with tears streaming down each of their faces and minds filled with regrets. So many things that they wished they could have done differently but didn't.

"Wooyoung would have been eighteen this year," Mingi spoke up, wrapping his arm around Yunho's shoulder as he joined him on the ground.

"And we won't be able to see those two share their first kiss..." Yunho sobbed. He heard stifled laughter, which made him whip his head with a scoff. "What?" And they all just dismissed him with some pitied laughs.

"Those two were meant for each other. I just wish we could have seen Wooyoung grow up more." Hongjoong sighed.

"He'll still forever be the baby of our gang." Jongho fixed the dirt around some flowers they had planted a few weeks prior and then turned to the others. "I'll be honest, his strength is what keeps me going."

The others nodded in agreement.

"He was probably the strongest of us all," Seonghwa said, wiping away some tears. "He had been through so much... Too much for a kid his age..."

"I'm glad he can finally rest now." Hongjoong nodded with blurred eyes and a choked-up sob leaving his mouth.

The men took a few moments to quietly reflect as they stared at the stone that shared their two members. It was only right for them to bury the two of them side by side.

None of the men had ever cried so much. Each of them had tears streaming down their faces as they tried to hold onto the thoughts of Wooyoung's laughter or San's beautiful smile. They loved those two with all they had. Nothing could ever fill the huge, empty void in their hearts.

The realization that Wooyoung would never grow up, never graduate, and never live out his life made the tears fall faster. That they would never hear his giggles, never see his happy face, and listen to his stories that almost always made the men laugh. None of them realized how much they took for granted until it was literally all gone.

The bunker had never been quieter. And after two years of silence, nothing was getting better. All of the men were brokenhearted. And after finding out the news, they were crushed.

It all happened so fast. With one phone call. One dreadful phone call made all of the men lose hope that Wooyoung and San would be coming home.

Jongho blamed himself for the longest time. He thought that if he had only set up more trackers, or learned how to tap into the satellites... literally anything to find them. He got to such a dark place that he wished that the universe had taken him instead of Wooyoung and San.

A loud cry broke most of the men out of their thoughts as they turned to see Yeosang hunched over and punching the ground.

"Yeo..." Yunho tried to pull the man up, but Yeosang was too distraught.

"It doesn't make sense!" He sobbed. "They can't be dead! T-they can't be! T-they... they..."

Yeosang had been taking it the hardest physically. He missed San so much. San was his first best friend and Wooyoung was like the little brother he never had. But nothing could compare to the pain of finding out that two of the people you loved most in the world passed away in a fatal car crash. Nothing would ever make Yeosang's pain go away.
