Yunho finds that he doesn't really mind his poker face disappearing after all.
Written for dbsk-flashfic's Drabble Challenge 140: Veil.
Yunho had always thought he had the best poker face in Dong Bang Shin Ki.
Jaejoong, Yoochun, and Junsu all had moments when their real emotions would show on their faces while on television; Changmin’s always been an open book to anyone who tried to read him.
After six years of perfect inscrutability, Yunho finds his ability to hide his emotions shattering, just as Dong Bang Shin Ki splinters into pieces.
But he finds that he doesn’t really mind - not when he’s holding a Music Bank award after so many months of worrying whether Cassiopeia will still be there waiting for Changmin and him, and he can’t speak through the relief and sheer joy clogging his throat. He hears Changmin giggle next to him, and Yunho is suddenly able to speak.
“Cassiopeia, you who have waited two years and three months for us, this award is for you,” Yunho calls. “You know that, right?”
Yunho sees fans sobbing through their screams, and he tries not to blink; he doesn’t want his tears to fall, but he also doesn’t want to miss the fans’ crying faces - this is why we came back, Yunho thinks, to meet their beautiful faces once again.
