A Dance to Remember ||| Yunwoo (Ateez)

The video worked miracles.

For the first few days, Yunho simply waited for an update from Seonghwa or Yeosang to let him know how things had gone, so when he actually received a text from Wooyoung instead he felt his heart leap out of his chest.

He made sure to take things slow at first, choosing to meet Wooyoung at Eunji's café or at his apartment in the beginning.

They would chat and he'd get to learn more about Wooyoung, and he didn't even mind having to answer some of the same questions day after day.

Eventually he worked up the courage to take Wooyoung out on an actual date.

He wanted to make it special, so he took Wooyoung to a botanical garden to walk around and enjoy the flowers and being outside for part of it. Then they found a food stall and ate in the warm afternoon sun and Yunho knew he'd made the right choice because he got to see how Wooyoung simply glowed with how beautiful he was.

Wooyoung's camera also became their traveling companion. They both took it upon themselves to film anything they could, or ask their friends to film for them sometimes.

Yunho wanted to document it all.

The coffee house they went to where he learned that Wooyoung loved dogs when someone brought their little Pomeranian in and he sat on the floor to play with it.

The river walk they went on, people watching and enjoying the crisp breeze that let them know fall was on its way.

The dinner that Yunho had set aside money for to be able to treat Wooyoung to the luxury he deserved, even though they both ended up feeling out of place and laughed about it on the way home.

Spending time at each other's home, cooking dinner, dying their hair, watching movies, playing games.

Just being together. 

And all of it was added to the video to keep it as up to date as possible, but also so that Yunho always had a way to express his undying love for Wooyoung.

They started going to Wooyoung's dance hall again, too. He was excited to see his old friends San and Jongho, who had really progressed and were solo artists for local dance companies.

Both of them apologized profusely for not coming by to see him, but in the beginning, everyone had decided it was for the best and then life happened as time passed.

Wooyoung understood and forgave them instantly.

And when he was confident with his abilities, they let him join them for some of their performances.

Yunho worked with San to get recordings of the choreography for Wooyoung to watch every morning, and even though Wooyoung's mind was learning the moves from scratch, his muscle memory took over and it was easier and easier for him to pick it up each day.

The first night he finally got to perform on stage again was the happiest Yunho had ever seen him. He was radiant.

And Yunho loved being backstage to cheer him on and support him between acts.

It was incredible to see Wooyoung in his element. The pride and sheer joy it gave Yunho knowing that he did that for the younger made everything that much better.

So, one night after Wooyoung finished his biggest performance yet where he'd had a long solo, Yunho took him back home to his place to have a special evening together.
