Narrator's POV:

SHINee, TEEN TOP, SNSD, GLAM and many others had a performance on MBC Star Dance Battle. Elizabeth, Rochelle and Charlene came along to watch. When it was SHINee's and TEEN TOP's turn, Charlene and Rochelle screamed their lungs out.

To Charlene's surprise, another boy band also competed against EXO. It was INFINITE. Charlene couldn't believe her eyes to see them for once. She screamed until she had no more energy left.

After the show ended, all of the people went out of the hall. The three cousins were the only ones who stayed there. Yoseob approached them and told them to get backstage with him. The three girls got excited. Elizabeth and Rochelle ran ahead leaving Charlene and Yoseob behind.

"Did you enjoy the performances?" he asked to break the silence.

"Sure. New steps, new bands, new hosts. It was all in!" Charlene cheered. Yoseob chuckled before another awkward silence came.

"What I told you the past few years, please forget it." Yoseob suddenly said. Charlene shrugged and put in a smile.

"I'm used to it. So don't get used on apologising all the time."

Just then a voice called her name out. They both turned their heads and saw Changjo coming towards them.

"I want to introduce you to someone." he cheered and pulled her by her wrist.

"Yoseob-ssi, Elizabeth noona is searching for you," Changjo told Yoseob. He nodded and looked out for Elizabeth.

As the two of them arrived in front of a door Changjo turned to face the girl.

"Promise me not to scream, okay?" he said and she said yes. They laced their pinkies together like in kindergarten. Changjo then opened the door.

"Guys, may I introduce you Charlene Alonzo?" the boy said with a smile. Charlene took a peek into the room and her eyes widened.

"Annyeonghaseyo! INFINITE imnida!" They beamed. Charlene cupped to suppress her fangirl scream. She then turned to Changjo who just leaned against the door and chuckled. He came towards her and put his arm around her shoulder.

"I still have to do something guys. Could you take care of my dongsaeng?" Changjo asked the boys. They all nodded and pulled Charlene to a seat. Changjo then got out of the room.

"How old are you cutie?" Woohyun asked.

"18." She answered.

"Means that you're our dongsaeng." Hoya nodded.

"Hello?" A familiar voice suddenly said. Charlene turned and saw a familiar person.

"UNNIE!" the girl screamed.

"JIHAE!"

Charlene jumped out of her seat as they hugged each other.

"How are you? I missed you! Since when are you here? Why didn't you told us?!" Jihae asked still hugging the older one.

"What do you mean with us?" Charlene asked surprised when another person came in.

"Charlene?"

"Minkyung?" she asked surprised. Minkyung ran towards her and they hugged.

"How? Why?" Minkyung asked with teary eyes.

"Haha, don't cry." Charlene laughed as Minkyung let go of her. Sunggyu gave her a tissue.

"Since when are you here?" Minkyung asked.

"Since the begin of July," Charlene answered.

"Why didn't you tell us?!" Jihae pouted.

"I wanted to but you've been busy the past few weeks!" Charlene exclaimed.

"Better than nothing." Minkyung agreed.

"Hello? Anybody here?" Someone asked as the opened the door. It revealed Key.

"KEY!" Woohyun squealed.

"WOOHYUN-AH!"

The two best friends hugged each other as the others watched them. Confused. Much to bromance.

"What are you doing here? It's been a while!"

"I'm looking for a young lady who's currently busy flirting with your bandmate."

Woohyun turned to see Sungyeol and Charlene laughing with each other. He chuckled as Key butted into their conversation.

"Ladies, I'm sorry but we have to go now."

"Naw. Seriously?" Sungyeol pouted as L slung his arm around his best friend's neck.

"Sorry. Important stuff to do. I hope you guys exchanged numbers?"

They all nodded.

"Guess we can go then. Bye boys!"

They all bid their goodbyes as the four of them got out.

 

Key's POV:

"Mum, where's Changjo?"

I looked to Charlene's direction.

"They had to go already," I told her and she looked down.

"Why?" I asked as I put my arm on her shoulder.

"Nothing." she grinned. I made a face. Just then Minkyung's name got called. From where I know those two? Minkyung is Minho's cousin.

Minho hugged Minkyung tightly as Jihae giggled along with Charlene. And me? I was being the loner. Not a big deal for me.
