Today was the day I've been waiting for: The MAMA Awards.

While San and Wooyoung care more about winning and making a memorable appearance, Yunho and I have other priorities. I know it's bad to bring personal things into your work life, but this needs to be an exception.

Before we could make our way to our seats, walking on the red carpet was first. Fortunately, the four of us are incredibly photogenic so getting our pictures taken was nothing to stress about. Flashing lights every millisecond can definitely get annoying, but at least we look good.

"And joining us on the carpet is FENIX!" An MC exclaimed, pointing politely. "How are you feeling about tonight?"

She held the microphone to my face first. "We're really excited, yeah." I smiled. "Hopefully you like our performance as well."

"Do you think you can show us a little bit of what to expect?" The moment she asked, Yunho began to do a simplified version of our intense choreography. He managed to make everyone smile so it was a job well done. "Ah, I see! I can't wait to watch. Hopefully you'll bring home a few awards tonight as well."

"It was an honor to be nominated." San replied. "And congratulations to all the other nominees. I wish you all luck."

"But I still hope we win." Wooyoung interjected.

I'd say we successfully showcased our personalities within the group quite well in those few seconds. I played my role as the leader, Yunho goofed off while impressing everyone, San as the humble one, then Wooyoung being the definition of chaos. Perfect.

"Stop looking, you're making it obvious." San mumbled as we walked to our seats. Instead of arguing, I put my head down. He was right, I need to be subtle.

"Oh, great." Yunho sighed.

We were right behind Galaxy Star. What are the odds?

None of us greeted each other, but we definitely stared. I gave Seonghwa the dirtiest look I possibly could. I was shocked when it wasn't returned, but then again, he's great at gaslighting me in person. He'll probably tell his members that he has absolutely no idea what that was about, but he knows damn well why.

"Yunho." Mingi turned around and whispered. Getting his attention as soon as possible took me by surprise.

"What?" Yunho couldn't help but smile. I'm sure he wanted to stay cool and collected, but I knew that would be impossible.

"You look really good."

"Really?" He only started to laugh because he was nervous. I'm sure the second he saw his ex, he practically melted.

"Of course you do."

"You do too."

Mingi and Yunho both had the same shy expressions as they looked forward, most likely with their hearts pounding out of their chests. This worked out well for them, and hopefully something can come out of it.

Wooyoung lightly smacked me with a huge smile, looking back and forth between the separated couple. Seeing them in the same place, constantly trying to steal glances, was enough for me to feel the chemistry between the two. Even though there wasn't much happening, it wasn't hard to see it.

"Are you shocked he made the first move?" I whispered to Yunho.

"I am going to take him in the bathroom the first chance you get."

"No, you will absolutely not."

It was clear that my words went in one ear and out the other. Yunho was staring at Mingi, biting his lip.
