Soulmates / HEEJAKE

Last Chapter

"My gosh, that would have been scary,"

"HELLA SCARY... I don't know about him, but I really thought that it was going to be the end of us," Jake said, being the drama queen that he is.

"I don't know how and why the members accepted us, but I am eternally grateful," Hee said, reminiscing old memories.

"But you know what's scarier than that... 'The Big Reveal.'"

The host's eyes lit up at the mention, "you heard them, guys, stay tuned to hear about the highlight of the show.

But before that, let's celebrate them with Enhypen's ever-shining love song 'polaroid love'."

The music started playing, and their mics turned off; everyone breathed easily. Staff placed a few more pages of the script before them, and the three passed through it earlier than the music stopped.

A few words were spoken before they came back to the hot topic.

"The Big Reveal" was indeed a hot topic back then; our couple was trending on Twitter all across the world, even making it to the national news channels.

It happened in the sixth year of their seven-year contract, just a year before the contract was going to end. It was the peak of their careers, but all of it almost got destroyed. Almost.

Everything started when Dispatch got too suspicious of these two. Some sasaeng trailed the group everywhere; thankfully, all the members were too cautious. But one day, one of their overly obsessed fans planted a camera in their hotel room.

Later, she got the punishment she deserved for the crime she committed; even so, the damage was done. Nothing obscene was recorded.

Fortunately, it was during an event, so the idols were super tired; they just went to sleep after taking showers. The camera only caught them cuddling each other to sleep.

The photos and videos spread like wildfire, people started asking questions, some trolls called them out for lying to their fans.

The scandal was huge; people around the country stood up for the couple, saying that it was shameless of the culprit to plant a camera and invade their privacy.

As much as Engenes stood by their idol's side, they were also eager to know the real truth.

Enhypen was in big trouble, and their company, Belift Lab, was just watching them get thrashed in silence.

Hybe was also putting too much pressure on the group, leading to some internal clashes among the members.

The couple was heavily criticized by the company and antis; they were even asked to break up by the label.

A month passed, and the group was still getting hate and death threats. Upon seeing that the matter is not going to fade on its own, the company finally decided to confirm the dating rumors.

Enhypen got mixed reactions from the audience; some supported them, and some threw hate as predicted.

With that, our couple made it to the national news; they became the first gay couple who openly announced their relationship in the extremely toxic K-pop world.

They became icons for the LGBTQ+ community and gave courage to thousands of young adults to accept themselves. They also raised a talk in the very conservative South Korean society. They became the strength of many.

Unexpectedly, their popularity grew even more after the incident. Enhypen thought that people would leave the fandom; that did happen, but only a few delusional ones left. Other people across the globe praised them for their bravery and sympathized with them in their hard times.

Amidst this, their contract was coming to an end, and the members were hopeless that the company would renew their contracts. They did.

Slowly, things faded, and the big reveal incident became history. Enhypen managed to survive the painful times together. Their relationship became stronger, and they became more versatile as a group. With hard work, they overcame the loss.

Their time for disbanding is near, and they are yet again in the news for the announcement of their marriage. In their recent tour, they announced that soon they'll be getting married. That's also the reason why they are sitting here in an interview talking about their love story, how they confessed, and every cute and lovely tale which kept them in love with each other.

"The Big Reveal" taught them life, the importance of family and acceptance; it made them realize that it was really fate that brought the seven of them together. If even one of them were a different person, they wouldn't have come this far.

Enhypen really did connect, discover, and grow together.

There were times when they cried and wanted to quit, became hopeless, but every time these situations came, they always found themselves surrounded by each other.

And for Jake and Heeseung, it was honestly

"Destiny," Jake and Heeseung said in unison when the host asked them to describe their relationship in one word.

People in the room chuckled.

"Wow, with that, our interview has sadly come to an end, but before you guys go, we have a surprise for you."

Jake and Heeseung glanced in anticipation.

"Surprise!!!" The door opened, revealing the other five members of Enhypen. Jungwon was holding a large bouquet. All of them smiled widely at the couple's reaction.

It was really unexpected for them. The members have packed schedules. They have solo projects to work on, events & meetings to attend. Still, they managed to show up; the couple can't be more grateful.

Jugwon handed the bouquet to Heeseung, who approached them first and then was squeezed by Jake, who hugged him tightly. The other members laughed looking at the two, Jungwon was clearly struggling.

Laughter and happiness filled the room. This was Enhypen, who enlightens everywhere they go, bringing happiness with mere existence and teaching others the meaning of friendship and unconditional and selfless love.
