Sunggyu POV:My manager gave Woohyun and I weird looks, "Okay guys, cut the crap. What is going on?"Woohyun and I looked at eachother and shrugged. We were standing in my manager's office. The same place we found out that we were becoming a duo group. It had a different feel this time. Not so much like hell as last time, it was more comforting. Probably because Woohyun and I weren't wanting to kill eachother. "What do you mean?" I asked.Woohyun's manager rolled his eyes, "You two usually want to rip eachother's heads off. I'm worried.""We're friends now," Woohyun said.Woohyun's manager's eyes got wide, "Are you guys under the influence of something?"I shook my head, "Uhm.. No? We just overcame our differences."My manager shook his head, "I'm worried. But no time for that, you're debut is days away. Less than a week!"Woohyun's manager nodded, "So you guys will have non stop practice all of today. Just dance and vocal with Sarah and Brian.""And let's not have a repeat of last time," My manager said as he narrowed his eyes towards us."Don't worry," I said as I smiled towards him, "We will be way more mature.""Good," Woohyun's manager said as his phone beeped, "Sorry I have to take this," He said as he left the room."So it's settled. Today is Saturday, you will debut on Wednesday," My manager said as he smiled, then studied Woohyun and I. "It's werid that you guys are friends now. But it's what you need."I shrugged, "It was better for our career. That's why we are friends."My manager just nodded as Woohyun's manager came into the room, beaming, "Okay guys, good news! Since your debut is coming up I needed to get you guys on some shows. I have Woohyun in a drama with another star, I forgot her name. I think it will be big because rumors about you dating someone? Priceless. And Sunggyu I have you and Hoya guest starring on Myungsoo's show.""Fun," I said as Woohyun and I smiled at eachother.But for some weird reason, I was feeling a little jealous. Woohyun was going to be on a show with a girl, and they were supposed to "date"? Shouldn't the attention be on Woohyun and I? Oh well, it didn't matter. Woohyun POV:I smiled at Sunggyu. Great. We got to star in shows, but weren't we supposed to be working on.. I don't know... OUR DEBUT? Plus I didn't want to be "dating" someone else. I don't date. Mainly because I don't like to be tied down. But it didn't matter. I had a debut to worry about."Let's go practice," I said as I turned towards Sunggyu who just nodded."Wait, you aren't excited?" My manager asked, disappointed."Of course I am," I said, "Why wouldn't I be? I am perfect. I'm just... nervous for our debut.""That's weird," My manager whispered to Sunggyu's, "He is never nervous. He is so cocky.""I can hear you," I said as I glared at him, and started walking out of the room with Sunggyu."You can't practice right this minute," My manager blurted out, "Dongwoo and Sungjong are practicing right now.""Then we will go to Gyu's," I said as Sunggyu nodded."That works, Hoya shouldn't be practicing for another two hours," Sunggyu's manager said as he nodded."Okay, let's go," I said to Sungyu as we left the room, "Thank goodness that's over with.""I know," He said as he rolled his eyes. "Don't you think it's weird how they are trying to advert the attention from us?"I nodded, "I think it's because we hated eachother so much and they didn't want to risk it. Either way I don't want to do this stupid television show. I think we should work on our debut.""Yeah, but we should use as much time today as possible before I go to Japan," Sunggyu said as I stopped walking. He turned around and gave me a weird look, "Are you okay?""You are going to Japan?" I asked."Yes," He said, "That's where Myungsoo's drama is.""What am I going to do here alone?" I asked, I was going to be so bored."I won't be gone for that long, and you have Dongwoo. Plus," He said as he smiled towards me, "I would've never guessed Nam Woohyun would be worried about being lonely." Third Person POV:Woohyun and Sunggyu walked into the practice room discussing their debut when they were stopped by someone."What do you two think you're doing?" Dongwoo asked as he stopped them.Woohyun smiled at his best friend, "Dongwoo! What are you doing here? I thought you were practicing?""I got here as soon as I got the text that you two were friends," He said as he studied Woohyun and Sunggyu, "And then I called Hoya.""Since when do you talk to Hoya?" Sunggyu asked as he glared at Dongwoo. He seriously hated him."Since my best friend became your friend," Dongwoo said as he smirked."It doesn't matter," Woohyun said, "I'll still be your friend Dongwoo.""That isn't the issue," Dongwoo said as he glared at Sunggyu."Then what is?" Woohyun asked."You two are supposed to hate eachother. We are getting suspicious," Hoya said as he walked into the practice room, "Hey Sunggyu. Thanks for calling me Dongwoo.""No problem," Dongwoo said as he smiled at Hoya."Look, we live together. We were bound to become friends," Sunggyu said as he rolled his eyes."And our careers were on the line," Woohyun quickly added."We are going to get to the bottom of your scheme," Dongwoo said, "But only because you won't tell us the truth."Woohyun rolled his eyes, "That is the truth.""Whatever," Hoya said as he shook his head, "Sunggyu, our plane leaves tomorrow morning."Then Hoya left, and Dongwoo followed him leaving Woohyun and Sunggyu standing alone."Well we should probably start practicing," Sunggyu said, "Since...""Since you leave tomorrow," Woohyun muttered, finishing Sunggyu's sentence.__________________________________________________________________________Author's note: Have you heard Sunggyu's new solo?
