Chapter 104 - For waiting, for longing

"It's been a while but after the M.S. stage I don't think Pegasus would want to lose out too."

Kim Hyo-jin said as the presenter for the next performance.

"Are you all Fine?"

The crowd replied enthusiastically with a loud yes, she then smiled as she said another phrase that was famous throughout the entire year.

"Really Really!?"

"Neol Joahae!"

"I hope you're all still hungry for more performances since I know you will love the next one!"

The fans screamed and the idols below clapped as they waited for this performance aside from PSY's, as soon as Taeyeon showed up and walked slowly towards the stage.

'My true feelings'

'On a torn paper'

'Are getting clear somethin' bout you'

Everyone waved their light sticks slowly left to right as they wanted to feel the song, some even closed their eyes as they wanted to embrace it, they all sang along during the chorus.

'It's not fine'

'Ah ah ah ah it's not fine'

The lights soon faded signaling that Taeyeon had finished, but a familiar song soon started, a song that dominated the summer track and had a famous phrase attached to it that even older aged audiences knew what song it was.

"NNet Are you ready! Put Your hands up!"

Everyone saw Junho atop of the platform alone, the fans screamed as even though he didn't have a light stick for his own they all waved it and raised their hands including the idols.

"Really Really! Ah Yeah! Sing with me!"

The crowd also sang along, Junho didn't even sing as he let the crowd sing the first verse, the camera and live feed cut off to various Idols and fans singing the song, Junho raised his microphone towards the crowd until it was his time.

'If my feelings for you were money'

'I'm a billionaire'

The Music suddenly stopped as Junho was at the center the fans immediately yelled as they were anticipating this line the most

"Say What!"

"Neol Joahae!"

"Really Really"

The music continued and the lights shone revealing the dark background behind him showing it was 'Wings' the crowd screamed and forgot to sing as they were surprised as Mingyu and Daniel continued the rap part.

As the song continued they didn't stop singing along as the atmosphere had become different as if it was their own concert and no longer an award show, their peers, the audience present and the fans watching from home could feel their stage presence as they too wanted to perform along with them.

Even the idols at the audience couldn't ignore the screams at they couldn't even hear their own conversations with their fellow idols.

'Tell me you think you like me too'

'Let's meet right now'

'I have something to tell you'

"Neol Joahae!"

The group continued dancing as they let the fans sing the rest of the song, they soon got into a position as the lights faded shortly.

"Yes, sir and ma'am"

"Cookin' like a chef I'm a 5 star Michelin"

"Reached the peak of "taste" I see it illusion"

The song that made them famous was being played and the audience continued to bop as they couldn't help themselves from enjoying the music, Wing's didn't dance as they walked towards the center platform they kept singing.

'Wonder what's our secret ingredient'

'We don't use such a thing'

"Sing it!"

"Hottest menus that will never cool off"

"Imprint those flavors on your palate"

"DU DU DU DU DU DU"

""Yes, sir and ma'am"

"DU DU DU"

As they were done singing the entire convention center clapped, screamed and yelled in support as it was an unforgettable experience for them, seeing them live and performing like this made it worth for them even the Idols felt like they were now in their concert as they made it that way, PSY was even thinking how he could topple it.

Before they could think again they soon applauded and yelled as they soon sang another song this time it was the one released yesterday.

"I know I love you"

Everyone sang the first line along with Junho who started it, everyone in the arena felt the emotions from the first line alone, and when they dance they too could feel as if the song was made for the occasion and for them.

'My life before you was a mess'

'Couldn't win one round of this chess'

'Oh we'

At this point the audience and the idols couldn't differentiate who was the rapper, the vocalist, the main dancer as everyone of Wings were in sync and that they couldn't miss a beat, the lines were distributed and almost everyone was amazed at their vocal abilities as they saw how everyone had progressed rapidly from a year ago.

"Say you love me, say you love me"

"Till the end of the world"

"All or nothing, I want all of you"

"I know I love you"

As they kept singing and dancing the other fans felt emotional including idols as they listened to the song, some thought it was for them, some thought about their lovers, even some idols were caught who had small tears forming in their eyes as they listened to the song.

The crowd then screamed once more as they saw who was slowly approaching from the side and changed her outfit, it was Taeyeon who was in a white suit with also a red patch on her left side this time opposite to the current costume of Wings.

"The hole in my soul begins to mend"

"Frigid air starts to thaw"

"In this world of zero"

"I found warmth that's you"

The audience went into a sudden frenzy as they sang the lines, some even began fantasizing that they were Taeyeon and the others they were Junho, but that didn't stop the momentum as even then.

'The only (one) rule of this world'

'Save me'

'Take my hand'

'Please use me like a drug (I know I love you)'

'Say you love me, say you love me'

'Till the end of the world (I love you)'

'All or nothing, I want all of you'

'I know I love you'

As soon as the song ended the crowd chanted to let them sing once more as they wanted to feel that feelings that Wings had given them, even the idols too wanted to see at least one more stage, the staff of the program even forgot it was an award show for a little while as they were breathless.

The audience shouted 'Wings' in unison as the lights faded into black, soon Han Ye-seul came in as the lights went back on.

"Good evening everyone I'm here to present the Best New Male Artists, the candidates are."

The following were soon shown, B.A.P, John Park, Ulala Session, X.O and lastly Wings who had just finished their stage, they were seated and waved their hands to the cameras as if nothing had happened earlier, when they were shown their names were being chanted immediately and some even screamed.

"Without further ado, Let's all congratulate 'Wings!"

They wanted Junho to go up but a staff from the side motioned for them to all come since even the staff couldn't control the crowd chanting for their names, as soon as the five of them were on stage they could hear claps as they received the trophy.

"We don't have anything else to say but thank you everyone for your continued support, we hope we'll see you all again in the future!"

They all clapped as the four guys behind Junho had some small tears in their eyes as they kept hearing their names, they all waved and sat down once more, the idols below just smiled and patted their backs, seniors such as S.J encouraged them since they were familiar with each other.

The evening went on though they were nominated too in the Song of the Year, Artist of the year and Album of the year but they were beat out by Psy, BigBang and S.J. respectively but nonetheless they were going to be remembered.

'Concert or Award Show?'

This was the headlines most newspaper outlets and news agencies had ran on Korea, Wings had taken the night away with their performance, everyone who was expected to win the awards had won but they never thought that Wings were nominated to almost every major category and won one award and two special awards such as the PD's choice and one of the recipients of Best New Asian group.

All in all to everyone it was being heralded as one of the best award show performances in their eyes especially their stage presence that even the audience watching through the screens could feel, their stage online was being uploaded and it broke a million views in just ten minutes and it was still rising.

"My butt is still sore."

Junho complained as he got out of his room to see food on the table already cooked, he saw his father who was still cooking and his sister looking at the news.

"Hey Grandpa said you guys are renting Disneyland."

"Yeah."

"I'm coming."

"Sure"

Right now the three of them were the ones occupying the penthouse as each member was given a new location along with their family so each of them could have privacy.

"So how many award shows are you guys gonna go to by the end of this year?"

"Around three or four more I forgot."

"Oh then I guess your albums are gonna be sold out."

Junho sat down beside Jihyun as they looked at the news and it was currently talking about their performance, needless to say even though he should be used to it he was still embarrassed as he looked at himself through the screen.

"Hey."

"What."

"You think I could talk grandpa into renting an entire stadium for my groups debut?"
