The big night of the finale. They were all extremely scared, nervous yet a bit happy. The last weeks had been full on adventure for them, and they were relieved and incredibly stressed at the same time. That night, the one that would determine their future; they all worked so hard.  As they were in line, Jooheon stared at his teammates. He lived so much with all of them, and they became close during this journey. It was breaking his heart that two of them would be gone...

One of them maybe being himself.

He looked around a bit more, until his eyes met Changkyun's. The boy worked hard, so hard that Jooheon couldn't even bring himself to hold any grudge anymore. The war had been merciless, and he suffered too; they were all on the same boat.

Changkyun was beyond nervous, but at the same time...Disapointed. He knew he wouldn't debut, he was sure of it, those places weren't his. He looked at his rapper teammate, and their eyes locked. He felt giddy when he looked at him, so much happened and he felt a sort of connection to his oldest. Jooheon felt the same.

As the time passed, everything seemed to froze. And when the earth started to move again, Changkyun was in the chosen line, next to Kihyun, Hyungwon, Hoseok, Hyunwoo, Minhyuk and...Jooheon. He couldn't believe it. Couldn't believe he was about to debut,  alongside all of them...They all started crying, relieved, hurt, happy...So many mixed feelings. Minutes later, Changkyun was sobbing against Jooheon's chest, who told him to work hard and pat his head softly. This time, again, he wiped his tears. And I.M did too, seeing the ones falling on his friend's beautiful face.
