*I know pirate king is their debut song but for this I was gonna do another different song, but I feel like Eternal Sunshine has cute Yungi moments(though they are cut in the mv the dance practice is so cute) so I went with eternal sunshine. Plus it just gives happy vibes and I feel like it's needed sometimes.*

Yunho

Anxiety peaking as I pace the halls, sweat accumulates in the palm of my hands as I shake them slightly to dry them. Taking deep breaths as I jump around a bit, trying anything to shake the anxious sensation that's ever present. It's not long before the practice room door opens and Wooyoung emerges, closing the door behind him as he looks through the halls. His gaze falling on me as he makes his way towards me, "Calm down Yun, you are gonna be exhausted before we even perform. Everyone is waiting for you in the room, we are gonna do a once over before getting ready to go out." He laughs as he puts a hand on my shoulder stopping my hopping in place. Nodding slightly grabbing my hand he drags me back to the room, everyone is in the middle of the floor, Hongjoong, Seonghwa and San jumping around happily excited for the performance, as Wooyoung crouched yelling at the top of his lungs.

I look over and see Yeosang, Jongho and Mingi standing together, Mingi standing with a tight smile, spinning his rings as Jongho talks. I make my way over quietly, wrapping my arms around his waist as I put my head on his shoulder. I feel him tense a bit as I nuzzle into his neck as I take in his scent, instantly relaxing some of my tension as he giggles a bit. His tension and anxiety visibly lessen, thankfully. "Yun, stop" shaking my head slightly as I keep my head as I keep my face in the crook of his neck, pulling him more into me. "No can do, they know we are dating now so there's no need to hide my affection anymore." I say lifting my head, I see Yeosang and Jongho grimacing at our affection. "Doesn't mean we wanna see it." Jongho complains as we hear cooing behind us. Turning I see San, Wooyoung and Seonghwa smiling at us, hongjoong holding the same look as Yeosang and Jongho. I can definitely say it's mixed on me showing my affection, guess l have to die down a bit after all. "Sorry guys, I'll stop." I laugh stepping away from Mingi, his smile dropping slightly as he hesitates to spin his rings, grabbing my hand instead quickly interlocking our fingers.

"Alright, let's do a quick run through." Hongjoong yells getting everyone's attention as we run into position, I look to Mingi from my position. His nerves evident on his face, there's not much I can do from here besides send him a small smile before the music starts. He returns it before taking a deep breath and focusing, now let's hope our run through is perfect, we've practiced for months for this day.

"Oh my god, there's so many people, do you see them?! Also why do these have to be so itchy" Wooyoung yells picking at his mic when Seonghwa smacks his hand. He quickly starts jumping up and down as he hugs Hongjoong, an awe struck look on his face. A lot of people showed up to the after school performance, it was not only an after school event but also a big grade for our dance final and Hongjoongs music class. Everyone wanted to watch our performance, the most popular kids all in one group and performing for the school and not just competition. Peaking through the curtains I see the crowd, everyone seems excited, chatter heard from behind stage. I can't help the smile that creeps onto my face, though I'm shy I'm used to the spotlight, being school rep and performing many times in public. This time is different though, I'll be singing too, that's the nerve wracking part of it all. Pulling back from the curtain, seeing Mingi chew his lip as he stares into nothingness. I walk in front of him grabbing both his hands, "Head here Min, you got this, we are about to go on. I'll be there with you, just like practice, pretend they aren't there." Easier said than done, I know because I can feel the lump in my throat from the anxiety I feel. "Guys come on, we are going on, stop being lovey dovey." Wooyoung yells, I roll my eyes as I drop Mingis hands, putting my hand on his back as I guide him to the stage.
