Seungmin came back to look after Changbin, bringing Jeongin with him. Changbin learned he was the youngest of his friend group, which consisted of him, Seungmin, Minho, Jisung, Hyunjin, and Woojin.

"Where are you from?" Jeongin asked.

"I'm not-"

"Minho and Jisung said to not ask questions!" Seungmin quickly said.

"Oh, sorry. I got curious because I haven't seen you around."

"It's fine. Maybe i'll tell you another time," Changbin told him.

"You guys are trainees?" he asked to change the subject.

"Yep! I passed an audition last year. I've always wanted to be an idol," Seungmin explained.

"I auditioned too. I've been training a bit longer though," Jeongin told him.

Changbin thought back to his time. JYP was still a huge company back then.

[A/N: JYP is still the Park Jinyoung we know]

He had always thought about auditioning, but once he got sick, he had to abandon the thought.

"Are you still cold?" Seungmin asked.

"I'm better." One strange thing Changbin has noticed, was he freezing feeling went away quicker than normal. Usually when episodes such as the previous one occurred, he'd stay cold for days at a time. This one only lasted a few hours.

An improvement? Hopefully.

Minho and Jisung finally got home around 11 pm. Seungmin and Jeongin had left about twenty minutes ago.

"How were you today?" Minho asked.

"Not that good," Changbin admitted. "I think my uhm-sickness-is back."

"Sickness? Does Chan know about it? Or Felix?" Jisung felt his head and attempted to take his temperature.

"Not that kind of sickness. It's a bit more serious than what you think."

"What do you mean?" Jisung asked with a shaky voice.

"Can you get Chan over here? I would rather say it once as a group."

"Of course! We can facetime Felix too." Minho suggested while he called Chan.

Within half an hour, Chan was there at the dorm. However, some of their other friends also came.  Including Seungmin and Jeongin.

"They were all worried and wanted to help," Chan explained.

"We can leave if you want," Woojin said.

"No, it's fine. I trust you guys."

Chan facetimed Felix, and he picked up immediately.

"Is Changbin okay?" he asked.

"He's telling us right now," Chan said.

Changbin cleared his throat.
"They don't know, do they?" He gestured to the four newer guys.

"No, we haven't said anything about that," Jisung said.

"I'm Seo Changbin, and I got preserved through cryonics about sixty years ago." He waited for the reactions, expecting a few to be shocked.

"REALLY?  So you're from like, back in the day?" Jeongin exclaimed.

"That's-insane."

"Oh my gosh that's so cool!" Woojin elbowed Hyunjin in the side.
