TRIGGER WARNING: Panic Attack

Finally, after so long, wayv were nominated for a major award for their latest comeback.

After all the drama surrounding the group in 2021, they weren't sure they would ever top the charts ever again so when they found out they were up for a major music award, they were over the moon ecstatic.

As the boys walked up the large staircase they felt like movie stars. They were dressed head to toe in designer suits, the paparazzi and reporters snapping non-stop photos of them, a crowd of fans standing on the street cheering for them.

It felt amazing, they felt important, like they deserved to be standing next to music legends.

Yang-Yang had never seen so many people in his life. The venue was packed with other artists, reporters, photographers, and a completely full audience.

Once they go back to their dressing room, the boys were giddy with excitement. Hendery couldn't sit still bouncing around the room with a wide smile on his face.

"did you guys see all the people out there!? We've never had this many people in our concerts." He squealed as he playfully shook xiaojun.

Kun laughed and smiled at each of them.

"this is truly an amazing peak in our career, I just want to say to you all that I am very very proud of you guys."

"gege! Don't get all sappy!" Yang-Yang whined as he and ten began fanning their misty eyes.

"this award is for all of us, for all of our hard work, and all of our blood sweat and tears that went into this album." Sicheng said as he raised his water bottle as a toast.

The boys smiled and joined him clanking the plastic bottles together and taking a swig.

"if we win I think yang-yang should give the acceptance speech." Hendery said.

Yang-yang nearly spat out his water.

"huh!? Why?"

"I don't know you just worked really hard during this comeback and I feel like you deserve it."

Yang-yang was floored. He was touched that hendery thought of him but he was also terrified if the thought of giving a speech, especially in front of so many important people.

"I mean, are you sure I'm the best one for the job? Maybe kun-ge should do it."

"but I think hendery is right yang, you definitely worked the hardest, you should be the one to accept the trophy."

Yang-yang tensed in his seat. He for sure thought the leader would pick up on his subtle desperation. He didn't want to make a fool of himself on that stage, especially for such an event.

He just accepted the job though because he'd rather die than admit to his members that he was afraid of public speaking.

He wasn't performing, he had nothing to distract him from their judgmental eyes, nothing to drown him out if he stuttered or ran out of breath or said something wrong.

He felt his heart race in his chest, a sudden panicky feeling washing over him as he slowly crushed his empty water bottle in his hand.

They were minutes from the show. Minutes for yang-yang to prepare himself and think of what he was going to say.
