"I feel like I'm gonna throw up. It's actually happening today," Sunoo realized with a face full of distress. "Hey, don't worry. We've got this, you've got this. Jungwon would be crazy to not see how amazing you are. It'll all be okay, Sun," Sunghoon reassured the younger. "But what if he doesn't feel the same?" Sunoo pouted. "Then I'll buy you ice cream after," Sunghoon said with a sweet smile. Sunoo's mood brightened after hearing the taller's answer. "You're the best, Hoon!" Sunoo exclaimed as he got up and hugged the latter.

"Yeah, yeah, now let's go get some food I'm hungry," Sunghoon told the other male. "Kay," Sunoo agreed after letting go of him. The two then left Sunghoon's bedroom and headed towards the front door before leaving.

"Is it okay if we go to Choi's Chai?" Sunghoon asked as they entered the vehicle. "I know you only want to see your boyfriend but okay," Sunoo replied with a sarcastic eye roll. "That's not the only reason why! They have good food there. And he's not my boyfriend... yet," Sunghoon argued. "Whatever you say," Sunoo rolled his eyes again before Sunghoon sped away to the café.

...

Sunoo and Sunghoon reached the café soon and entered the building. When they did they were greeted by a gloomy Soobin who was at the front door. It seemed like he was waiting for them. "You okay?" Sunghoon asked, slightly concerned. Soobin smiled a bit before speaking; "I just wanted to tell you guys to have a good time at the ball," The two other males were both confused by that sudden statement but didn't say anything. "We will," Sunoo told the tall male with a smile.

"Oh, my God, guys!" Jake squealed as he ran over to his friends. He instantly wrapped both Sunghoon and Sunoo in a gigantic hug. "Wh-why so energetic?" Sunoo asked the older male. Jake broke the hug and pulled the two in closer to him. "Because of top secret information," He whispered. "What?" Sunghoon questioned. "Let's go sit down," He said, no longer whispering. The two followed after the older and sat down, Sunghoon next to Jake and Sunoo in front of them.

"So, what did you want?" Sunoo asked. "I need you guys' help for something that's quite a stretch," Jake told the youngers, leaving them confused. "What is it?" Sunghoon questioned the older. Jake proceeded to tell them what Soobin told him the night prior as they listened closely. "Poor thing," Sunoo pouted once Jake finished the story. "Yeah, but I have an idea of how to help," Jake added. "And how is that?" Sunghoon wondered. "We're gonna search all around America to find this Yeonjun guy," Jake answered with a proud smile. The two other males looked at him like he was insane.

"I'm sorry, we're what?" Sunghoon asked, just to make sure he heard right. "Guys, I know it might seem far-fetched but I'm pretty sure all of us here know how it feels to be in love with someone but not be able to be with them. Soobin is my best friend and it hurt so much seeing him sad. I wanna pay him back for putting up with me for all these years and I think this is the perfect way of doing it," The oldest explained.

"I don't know how we're gonna do it, but I'm in," Sunoo agreed with a smile. Jake smiled widely at the fact at least one of them would help. "Fine, I'd want someone to do the same for me if I was in his shoes so I'll help. I'll also try to convince the others," Sunghoon said, finally giving in.

Jake gave Sunghoon a big hug and snuggled into his arm. "I knew you guys would agree! You really are the best friends ever," Jake spoke but his voice was muffled. Sunghoon's face flushed pink at the contact while Sunoo laughed at him for it. The youngest then started making hearts with his hands and blowing kisses to tease the taller before Jake brought his head up.
