It had officially been 10 years since Stray kids contract expired. To celebrate they decided to do a reunion concert so there all nine of them where, backstage at their concert. Never did Hae think she would be back on a stage but here she was. Backstage with her husband, children and best friends.
"Momma?" Jun-seo mumbles, pulling at Hae's trouser leg
"yeah sweetie" she smiles, bending down so they are eye level
"I'm hungry" He whines
"Daddy has some food" she tells him, pointing to her husband
"Come here, Junnie" Lee know smiles, grabbing his hand and sitting him on the sofa, handing him some food as he does Hee-jin starts crying from her baby carrier
"oh sweetie" she chuckles, lifting her baby up and rocking her in her arms "it's okay" she whispered, calming the baby down
"I can't believe you guys are parents" I.N smiles, watching the scene in front of him
"same" Felix nods
"come on, Jeongin. you're just jealous you're not my only child any more" She jokes, Hee-jin calming down
"Uncle Innie's my brother?!" Jun-seo asks Lee know
"No, Junnie it's just a joke" He laughs, patting his sons head with an adoring smile
"oh okay" He nods, going back to eating his food happily. He was sitting beside Changbin on the couch, his feet dangling off the edge
Changbin looked down at the child with a fond smile "He's so cute" he exclaimed quietly
"He really is" Hyunjin nods, walking into the room, carrying a juice box for jun-seo "Junnie, look what i got you"
"Uncle Jinnie!" Jun-seo exclaims, jumping up and running to Hyunjin "thank you" he smiles, taking to the juice box
"No problem, buddy" He chuckles, ruffling his hair
Hae pov
We spend a little more time speaking back stage before we go on.
"Bye babies" i say to my children, waving to them with both hands. They're both so adorable.
"we're going to be back soon" Lee know adds "you'll be able to see us from here, just look over there" He tells Jun-seo, pointing to where we are going to stand
"are you guys ready?" One of the staff asks, looking at Minho and I
"mhm" I smile "i'm kinda nervous" I tell Chan, shifting from one foot to the other
"don't be" he smiles "you're going to be amazing, we all know" he reassures me like he always used to. Some things never change
"it's been 10 years, Chan" i laugh "I've had two children, i don't think i can dance like i used to"
"Well you better find a way to since we're going on now" He chuckles. We walk onto the stage, I look around to the crowd as we do. Wow there's a lot of people. I think it's sold out. Jeez, they really love us.... I wave to the crowd, blowing kisses as well. We get to our mark and Chan starts to speak
"Hello Stay!" He laughs, making the crowd scream "It's great to be back! we've missed you guys so much!"
"We really have!" Han smiles, speaking into the microphone
"Today we will be doing a few songs for you and then we'll speak about things" Chan tells them
"Jun-seo and Hee-jin!" I hear someone scream
"yeah" i laugh, grabbing Lee know's hand, making the audience scream
Lee know chuckles and turns to me with a big smile "They're already stars, soon-Bok" he whispered
I laugh at him and nod "they're meant for the spotlight" he laughs with me and looks at the kids behind the curtain. Both of them are smiling and begin to wave. Minho and I smile and then wave back
.
We start dancing and singing, the crowd going crazy. Multiple times through the performance i look at Hee-jin and Jun-seo both of them with headphones on, they both have on massive smiles, Jun-seo jumping up and down. Dancing is easier than i thought it would be, muscle memory i guess.
"Well was that fun?!" Bang chan asks the audience, making them scream "yes"
"Well Hae, Lee know do you guys wanna start?"
"nah save the best for last" Lee know smiles, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. The others talk about what happened in their lives over the past ten years. Then it finally gets to us
"you wanna start?" i ask Lee know, turning to him
"yeah" he nods "Well i'll just start with the good stuff.." he chuckles "I asked Hae to marry me seven years ago at the arcade we used to go to all the time" He tells them, all of them cheering "We were in the photobooth and i proposed" He shrugs
"I have the photos on my night table" I say
"yeah" He says, turning to me with a warm smile "your turn now"
"okay so after he proposed we told everyone and i asked Hyunjin and Felix to be my males of honour" i laugh, the crowd laughing along with me "and then we got married. Then two years later we had Jun-seo and then another two years later we had Hee-jin" I smile "they're actually here right now" i say
"do you think they should come out?" Lee know asks me, looking out at the crowd of people chanting for them to come onto the stage
"yeah" i smile, we go back side. I grab Hee-jin's hand and Lee know takes Jun-seo's, leading them onto the stage
"okay here they are" Lee know exclaims as we get further onto the stage, the crowd cheering and clapping. Jun-seo looks at them and then looks back up to Lee know
"Are they all here to see you, Daddy?" He questions
"Yeah, they're here to see mommy and your uncles too" Lee know smiles
"That's so cool!" he giggles, jumping up and down. I look down at Hee-jin and pick her up, holding her on my hip. We get into line with the rest of the members
"Junnie, you wanna speak to them?" I ask, handing him the microphone
"hi!" he waves "there's a lot of you" I look at Lee know and laugh because well i agree. It's crazy to me how successful we were and still are. We changed all these people's lives and we were just artists, just a group of friends who made music but in a way we weren't that at all. This group gave me my best friends, my husband and ultimately my children. I would be no where without this group. So as i look at the audience i don't just see fans, i see people who gave me my family, made my dreams come true because after all i was 'Hae'. A k-pop idol. A sensation.
