Minki's POV
"Get up!" someone shook my shoulders.
"Leave me alone," I groaned, covering my head with my blanket.
"Ren! We have to shoot our debut teasers today, remember?" Baekho pulled me out of bed.
Oh yeah. The day we've all been waiting for. Today was the day that determined whether our debut would go smoothly or not. And apparently today was the day that we found out who our leader was going to be.
Well, it's obviously going to be Aaron-hyung.
How many months have I lived like this, training several hours each day while maintaining my school attendance? Ever since Hello Venus entered the scene, my life seemed to zoom by, and now, I guess I was surprised by how quickly this day came.
You know what else is surprising? Yooyoung stopped following Minhyun around like a creeper, and when Minhyun started talking to me, she hasn't gone off to blabber about me, I think. Well, I haven't heard any rumors about me yet...
But then again, it might be because she's been with Zelo. I don't know how or why, but after Minhyun started talking to me, Zelo and Yooyoung were basically almost always together.
These thoughts made me scowl.
"Arraso," I sighed, walking out of the bedroom and grabbing some clothes to change into.
"There you are, Ren! Pali! We have to be there in two hours!" Aaron clapped his hands, running around like an excited little kid. It was kind of scary actually, since Aaron-hyung was never like this.
Looking around, I noticed there was only one other person like me. Jonghyun had these major bags under his eyes, and he was stumbling around like a drunk.
"Good morning," he mumbled as he bumped into me.
"Good morning," I smirked, "Had a bad night's sleep?"
"You don't know half of it," he yawned. "Mr. Han made me stay up all night, texting, because he wanted to see if I wanted to get my name changed. Minhyun and Aaron got the message, too, but Minhyun didn't want to do anything with his name, and Aaron just took out one of his a's."
"What's your stage name, then?" I wondered.
"Junior Royale. I just wanted to be JR, but then Mr. Han was like "No! JR has to stand for something!"," Jonghyun grumbled. "And don't you dare start calling me JR."
"Arraso, but then I get to use the bathroom first," I shrugged.

"Anyeonghaseyo! We're NU'est!" all five of us bowed to the staff, not synchronized at all. Dang it, it looked a lot easier when the other groups did it!
"Boys, I think we need to work on that," Mr. Han sighed.
You think.
"Anyways, so I know you guys have been really anxious to know who the leader is," Mr. Han grinned, "Drum roll!"
Baekho plopped down on the floor and started drumming it.
"Aaaand the leader is-" Mr. Han grinned, "I bet none of you will see this coming."
Oh yes we did. It's Aaron-hyung, isn't it?
"JR!" Mr. Han announced.
......
"WHAT?!" Jonghyun spluttered, "Me-but-I-no-wait-can't-"
"Okay, Jonghyun. Breathe," Minhyun laid a hand on his shoulder.
