     Yunho grabbed Mingi's hands and pulled him into a tight hug. The other members were cheering at the side while some where also shocked from the event that happened a few seconds ago.

"You are my friend and my lover, Song Mingi!", Yunho answered, a bright smile was plastered on his face.

     He was happy that this boy in his arms was officially his. He was ready to face any challenge that gets in their way but at least Mingi and his members were there for him and so were their fans.

"This was shocking..but congratulations to both of them!", Hongjoong said, the other members hugged and cheered for the two as they approached them. Soon a vcr played and the members all headed to the dressing room to change for their last stage.

"Song Mingi and Jeong Yunho, please come here for awhile.", the producer called out to them with an expressionless face. They both thought that they were in trouble and slowly went to the producer.

"Yes?", Yunho asked, scared of what the producer would say.

"Mingi, I don't know what got into you that you had to do that without informing us. It might have affected the whole flow.", the producer started with an intimidating voice.

"I am sorry...but I hust thought about diing it earlier.", Mingi looked down, guilt flowing inside him.

"You should've told me, I could've fixed the segments you know.", the producer laughed and patted Mingi. Mingi looks up shocked at the producer.

"What do you mean pd-nim?", Yunho asked, perplexed with the change of tone in the producer's voice.

"I noticed that some of you left during practice and I was also confused why you were left here.", the producer said.

"Ahh, I am really sorry of not saying anything PD-nim.", Mingi apologized and bowed.

"I am happy for the two of you, there maybe rocky roads ahead and your life might not be steady as it is because of the judgment of others, but don't let those words pierce you like swords. Your feelings and your trust for each other is your shield.", the producer gave a heart-felt advice. Mingi and Yunho gave a tender smile.

"Thank you for those words, it would be helpful for us.", Yunho grabbed the producer's hand and held it tight, showing his gratitude.

"Now, go and have your outfits and make up fixed, we'll be rolling in a few minutes.", the producer went back to the monitors and controls, Yunho and Mingi walking to the dressing room.

"Goodbye ATINY!!! Have a great night! See you soon!", all the members waved their hands at the camera and soon they stopped the live concert.

"GREAT WORK ATEEZ!!!", the producer shouted and the members all cheered and laughed around on the stage.

The members all formed in a straight line and bowed, "THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARDWORK!!!"

"Congratulations for your 2nd anniversary.", the producer said approaching the members.

"This wouldn't be possible without you.", Hongjoong said, a respectful tone in his voice.

"And you too guys, you always gave your best and I am happy to be the one to hold your concert.", the producer complimented.

"I hope you would also hold our future concerts PD-nim.", San cheerfully said, making the atmosphere lighter.

"Tell that to your manager!", the producer replied, laughter filling up the studio.

"Now, now, fix yourself to get comfortable and get home safely. Rest up!", the producer continued, ushering the boys to the dressing room. They bowed to each other and soon the boys were back to their casual clothes.

"Yunho! Come here for a second.", Wooyoung pulled Yunho out of the studio.

"Huh? Where are we going? Where are the others by the way?", Yunho was puzzled why no one was in the waiting room but their bags were still there.

"Come on just come with me.", Wooyoung pulled Yunho to a staircase.

"What are we doing here?", Yunho asked. Wooyoung rolled his eyes.

"Just go up the stairs and you'll see.", Wooyoung pushed Yunho forward. Before Yunho could ask another question Wooyoung ran away.

"Is something going on?", Yunho mumbled.

     He went up and got to the first flight of stairs and found Yeosang and Jongho with 2 roses each. They both gave it to Yunho without a word but just gentle smiles on their faces.

"Just keep climbing up the stairs.", Jongho said and pointed up.

     Yunho did not say anything but was still disoriented with what was happening around him. He went up and got to the second floor. There stood Seonghwa and Hongjoong another two roses each.

"Are you not going to say anything about what's happening?", Yunho asked, Hongjoong and Seonghwa giving a smile.

"We can't tell you, but I promise that you will like it.", Seonghwa assured the younger.

     Yunho went up and found Wooyoung with 2 roses, Wooyoung gave it to him and whispered a short 'congratulations' before patting him in the back.

"Is this why you ran?", Yunho asked, laughing.

"They gave me a hard job you know. Now just do what you should do so my effort won't go to waste.", Wooyoung whined but laughed after.

     Yunho smiled while shaking his head. He got to the third floor and found San by a hallway. San was holding 2 more roses and he walked towards Yunho with a big smile.

"The last 2 flowers for 1 dozen.", San gave it to Yunho.

     Yunho was thinking why 12 roses were given to him. Before he could say a word, San took him in front of a door.

"Count to 10 then open the door.", San whispered.

     Yunho just nodded his head and stared at a plain white door. San was already nowhere in sight and it looks like Yunho was the only one in the long hallway.

     Just like San instructed, Yunho finished counting up to 10 and he opened the door. He was surprised with how it was decorated. There were floating balloons and some pictures on the strings. There were also some polaroid pictures and notes on the wall and flower petals scattered on the floor. It was dimly lit with stringed lights on the floors and walls.

"Wow...", was the only word that got out of Yunho's lips.

     He was too fascinated with the whole place, he was looking at the pictures and notes and he didn't notice that someone entered and closed the door. Once he got around the room that's when he noticed a person by the door with a bouquet of roses.

"Did you do this?", Yunho asked, still looking around the room.

"Yes...do you like it?", Mingi asked with a gentle and deep voice. Yunho looked at him with sparkling eyes and gave a smile.

"I love it so much.", Yunho answered while approaching Mingi.

"I want to tell you something.", Mingi said and gave the bouquet to Yunho. Yunho gave an interested look to the other.

"I'm sure you noticed that the other members gave you 12 roses right? I found out that the meaning of those is..be mine.", Mingi started. Yunho looks at the flowers given to him and hugs it tightly.

"And I gave you 24 roses right now...it means that I'm yours.", Mingi shyly said and looks away.

"You're so cheesy.", Yunho said and laughed, playfully hitting Mingi.

"I know...but I want to give you all my effort.", Mingi laughed and looked at Yunho with full of love.

"You don't have to.", Yunho assured.

"I want to, because people like you is very special and you deserve the whole world. Now you're my world, forever.", Mingi takes out a box and opens it.

"It's so beautiful.", Yunho feels the bracelet and looks at Mingi with excitements

"This one is for you...and this one is for me.", Mingi takes out the bracelets and puts on around Yunho's wrist.

     Once Mingi puts on his, the magnets of both bracelets connected to each other and Yunho got shocked.

"Its so cute.", Yunho said and chuckles. Mingi scratches his head from embarrassment.

"I'm happy you like it.", Mingi said, his bright smile turned his eyes into cresent shapes.

     Yunho caressed Mingi's cheek and observe the other's facial features. Their smiles not leaving their faces.

"I love you so much. I'm thankful that you made my life more interesting and exciting. I don't know what the future holds for us but I am happy that I will get to spend it with you as my boyfriend.", Yunho's face slowly approached Mingi's and their lips connected at last, their bodies filled with warmth and comfort in each other's presence.
