[FEW MONTHS PASSED]
Sara's POV-
"When is Mr. Jung coming back?" I ask lazily as I lay on the couch beside Han seok. We were at the boys' dorm, chilling as we were waiting for the results of the new awards to come.
"I don't know man; he's been gone for a long time now." Ji hun says.
"I don't think he's coming back now." Ye jun prompts while he plays games on his phone.
"Guys, guys! Look!" We were alerted by Seong bin who came running from his desk, amazed already.
"What happened?" We questioned to which he replies, "JUST LOOK AT THIS!!!" Weirded by his weird expression, we all have a quick look at the computer screen he was showing us.
"Oh My God, hyung. WE WON!!!! YAYYYYYY!!" Ji hun shouted and others joined him too. They were all very happy.
"This means we're going to receive this award from the honorable president tonight!" Han sek says with a content smile.
"Yes. Such an honour." I could see the pride of success and hardwork on Seong bin's face as he passed a sigh of relief.

[TIME SKIPS]
(At The Award Ceremony)
"And the best single-collaboration award goes to 'Drop It!" By 'Nex/gen' and 'HeyGirl' ". The MC announces and the boys gladly go to the stage along with Luna and other members.
Happiness and contentment clearly seen on his face, Seong bin gave the speech and thanked everyone associated with the process of song making; me included.
We all had a great time. There was a small party organised after the awards and there we were, sitting on the table enjoying music.
"Come, let's dance." Han seok stands up, placing my hands in his.
"Not really in the mood, Han seok-a." I actually shyed myself away; no way I wanted to dance in front of all these people.
And of course you know, paparazzis are always on their heels to click pictures of celebs and make them viral in no time.
I was in no position for wanting to become a new sensation after this award show. I know it was iust dancing with him but those people didn't know that Han seok is just like a younger brother to me and nothing else and they would even make a news that we two are dating or somthing weird like that; just for views and TRP.
"No, you go dance. I'll shoot you." I plead once more so that Han seok leaves me alone.
"You'll shoot me, Sara?" He makes a puppy face. "You said, you'll shoot me for dancing?" He pouts.
"God, Han seok! I meant shoot you in my phone?!" I chuckle.
"Yea, I know. I was just kidding." He says and goes to his favorite place- the dance floor. I was filming him swaying his body on the beat; no doubt his moves were amazing.
.
Ji hun's POV-
I see Han seok dancing on the floor like he's been high for a month. This was my opportunity to tell him to do my work, so I move closer to him to dance.
"Hyung, hi!" He says, while swaying the drink in his hands. "Hi, Han seok. Listen-" he cuts me off and I don't need a doctor to tell me he's high already.
"Hyung, the party's so amazing, right? And so is this drink." He brings the glass closer to his face and kisses it.
"It's so tasty! Wow. You know what I need another one-" He walks towards the bar but I seize his movements by grabbing tight his shoulder.
"Listen to me idiot!" I blurt out, frustrated. He looks at me with puppy eyes with a 'why'd-you-call-me-that?' face.
"See, I'm sorry. But you need to listen to me, okay?" I say to which he nods. "I need you to do me a favor."
"Favor?" He passes a drunk chuckle. "I'd like a favor. Get me another drink!" He says in a cute voice. *I am never letting this boy touch more than one drink his entire life. Why's he so high?*
"No, no, no! You don't need a favor. I NEED A FAVOR!" I repeat myself for this fully grown up man who's acting childish.
"No, you should also do me a favor!" He shakes his head while still making soft dance moves.
"Okay, okay. So, pass this note to Sara. Okay? Pass it to-?" I gesture him to repeat what I just said.
"Pass it to Sara." He nods; the tipsy eyes fighting to stay open.
"Great. Now you go give it to her and I'll get you a refill." Nowhere in this freaking world was I gonna get him one.
..
"Pass it to Sara." Han seok starts walking clumsily in Sara's direction. "Pass it to-- Sara." He keeps repeating the words so that he doesn't forget what he is supposed to do. "Pass it to Sara." He tries real hard to keep his eyes open, drunk as he is.
"Pass it to-" no longer is he near the table where Sara is seated than he bumps onto a hard muscular chest.
"Geez. Look where you're going, Han seok-a!" Seong bin holds him by the shoulder; tries to keep him standing straight.
"Seong bin hyung! I like your jacket and-" he cuts the drunk man off, "Thanks. Anyways, have you seen Luna anywhere?"
"Luna? There?" Han seok points a random direction and Seong bin hums in response; tells him not to drink much and walks away.
"Yea. So. Pass it to--" Han seok stops on his place. "Pass it to?" He scratches his head and waits for a moment to remember the name when a sudden name pops up. 'Luna.'
"Yes. Pass it to Luna." He walks in the direction where he had mislead Seong bin before, thinking that Luna was really that way.
After a long, long time of treasure hunt,
he finally passed it to Luna and got back to the dance floor. Ji hun who was sitting in the open bar, signalled Han seok if he completed the task or not.
Han seok gestured back with a thumbs-up, that he has done the work; indeed very, very, very well.
..
Sara's POV-
"Hyung! Hyung, come dance with me!" I see Ye jun walking past Han seok and pulling a chair beside me. He was looking disappointed and pissed as heck. Breathing heavily, he sat on the chair; I passed him a glass of water.
"Everything good?" I asked as he chugged the water down his throat aggressively; the breathing turning heavier now.
"What happened, Ye jun?" I looked into his eyes; bloodshot and almost teary as if he would cry at any given moment.
He secretly slides his phone on the table and looks away. Raising my brows at his confusing actions, I look at him and then look at the note in the picture on his phone.
My eyes widen out of excitement and I try to hide my smile at the words-
'My love, I need to tell you something very important. Meet me in my room as soon as you read this.
Yours, Ji hun.'
"But what upsets you, Ye jun-a?" I ask him 'cause, of course he can't be jealous about my boyfriend sending me a note. No, wait now. Is he?
"Ye jun-a? You can talk to me about it." I place my hand on his shoulder. He gives no response and I can feel that his eyes are filled with tears to the brim even if he's looking away. I just know him to know that.
"Ye jun?" I touched his chin and turned his face towards me when I notice those tears fighting back to fall on his cheeks.
"I'm sorry for this Sara. I don't know what it means but-" he stutters after hesitating for a long period and points to the note.
"It's fine. Yes, tell me." I try hard to console him and wipe his tears with a tissue.
I was as confused as him at this moment because I didn't know what exactly he was talking about.
Well, I've never seen him crying and this was my first time so it's kind of difficult to make him not cry. But the fact that he's crying about that note is what made me bewildered in the first place.
And then, it felt as if my heart stopped beating for a second. My eyes swelled up as I asked Ye jun to repeat what he just said.
"I found this note from Luna." He states.
The very mention of her name in this context broke my heart. Why did Ji hun send this note to Luna? Am I not enough? Am I not his type now? Does he not care about me anymore? Doesn't he love how I smile like he told me he did? Does he want sometimg more which I can't give?
A lot of questions popped up in my mind as Ye jun convinces me to calm down. But the most important one that never listened to go away was- 'where did I go wrong?'. I really needed closure on this now. I don't know why this man sent the note to Luna.
"I think we should go check." Ye jun says.
"No. I think we should let this slide for tonight. I'll check with Ji hun tomorrow." I bite my bottom lip in anxiety of what is to come, when I enquire further into this.
"What? Are you freaking mad, Sara? You cannot-" I cut him off, "I don't think this is the right time tho-"
"Oh, fuck your right times. I've waited for the right time very often and lost more than anything; more than anyone... all of it." His eyes turned soft at the moment as he looked up at me.
"So, we are going now. Get up little miss." He commands and gets off his seat.
"Ye jun-" my eyes fought back the urge to cry. He grabbed me by the hand and dragged me to Ji hun's room.
Reluctant to ask at first, I mustered up all the courage it takes to ask such a question. "Where did you find it?"
"What?" Ye jun looks back at me as we get into the elevator. "Th-the note." I mutter.
"I went back to our room as I forgot my phone and saw Ji hun in there."
*flashback*
"Ah! You scared me!" I exclaimed as I saw Ji hun sitting on the bed with some flowers beside him.
"What do you want?" He questions, straightforward.
"Nothing of your sort." I reply and take my phone from the bedside table where I also saw a small box, probably seemed liked a ring box.
I looked at him and raised a brow; then gestured what was all the flashy stuff, according to me.
"None of your sort." He smirks. I just forgot about the fact that Ji hun has a wide history of making people taste their own medicine. So, I should've known not to ask any questions to that silly man.
I retreat with heavy steps not knowing of the shock coming on its way. I closed the door behind me and then peeked into my phone which already had so many missed calls and texts.
While I was replying to all the unread stuff, I bumped onto a lady. "I'm sorry-" came from the meanest woman I've ever met in my life.
I saw a note lying on the floor as she started walking past me and to Ji hun's room. Curious, I peeped at the note and saw this.
"Luna, I assume it's yours." I took a quick click before returing it to her.
*flashback ends*
"Oh. And when did all this happen?" I swear, I didn't want to be the insecure-doubting type but I was helpless for real.
"Would've been twenty five minutes approximately." Ye jun replies as we walk towards the room, with him still holding my hand.
He slightly opened the door which was fortunately ajar. We stepped into the sitting area with a luxurious couch, a big T.V, a mini refrigerator and a balcony. But, the well-sculpted interior didn't catch my eye this time; those were filled with tears already.
We moved closer to the door which led to the main bedroom; trying to overhear their conversation.
Ye jun holds me tight by the waist so that I don't fall by leaning my whole self on the door, just to listen to their shit.
"Ji hun, I told you before. I cannot live without you. Please." Luna pleads.
"But I've told you, I'm with Sara now." Ji hun states.
"We can do something about it." Luna says.
I open the door a little bit more to see their actions and luckily get a good sneak-peek spot without their notice.
"There's nothing we can do about it." Ji hun yanks away Luna's hand which was now on his shoulder.
"Ji hun, please. Forgive me, just this once. I know- I-I know that somewhere in your heart, you still have place for me; even now."
"Luna, why don't you get me? We're not in our trainee days anymore to fuck around, you get me?" Ji hun says in a desperate voice.
"But who asked you to fuck around? I love you, Ji hun. You know that. And you know very, very well that you love me too." Luna pleads with all her skills today.
Ji hun turns silent for a moment. "I know that Sara is just a coping mechanism for you, to not think about me anymore. I know you well, Ji hun-a. I know you love me, even after all of that. You want to say it but you can't. I know you well, baby." Luna clings onto Ji hun once again.
But this time, rather than pushing her away, he lets her come closer. Rather than yelling at her and stating that he wants to be with me, his voice turns exceptionally soft.
"I know, Luna." He looks away; licks his bottom lip. "I am not over you yet. I guess I will never be but-" he gets cut off by her instantly. Ye jun was hearing all of it but was too focused at keeping me stand still.
"That's all I need to hear. We can make this work out Ji hun. Together, once again." She moves closer to his face and Ji hun almost surrenders.
He pulls her closer by her waist and they are about to kiss when I burst in the room.
