Yet, that admiration they garnered for you turned into a brotherly mourning, especially when you told them that you had to go back to LA, as the circus was relocating once again. Their stomachs turned at the thought of you not being with them everyday, and most of all, Jacob was devastated.

"You're leaving?" He mumbled.

"I have to," you replied sadly. "But I won't be gone forever. I'll be taking trips here frequently."

And you did. You were back and forth for over a year, until finally, you made a proposal to them. You weren't sure whether or not they would accept, but you figured it wouldn't hurt.

You sat on your couch, watching your iPad as all of the boys attempted to fit into the tiny box at the corner of your screen. "Ready?" You asked.

"Ready." Jacob, who now had a somewhat silver tint to his hair, replied.

"How do you guys feel about being part of a circus?"

They were silent, unmoving for a moment, until Sangyeon spoke up. "Your circus?"

"Yes," you nodded happily. "My circus."

And chaos broke loose. They were talking over one another, and although you couldn't hear anything they were saying, you were glad to see them so happy and decided not to interrupt.

"How would you incorporate us?" Changmin asked. "You already have so many people."

"You'll see," you smiled mysteriously. "Just make your choice and let me know."

Obviously, they chose to be part of your circus, and although it wasn't full time, they would play a crucial role in the Freak Show Stealerz.

So when they walked out from backstage for their first ever show alongside you, their outfits sparkling and their smiles radiant, you finally introduced them as you tugged on Jacob's hand.

"Please welcome our newest Stealerz," the crowd roared for a moment before the arena went silent once more. "These are the eleven stealers who will steal your heart. Give it up, for The Boyz."
