Hae Jae-Woo paced inside Nightide's private room. In a few more minutes, the concert would begin, and he would be on stage in front of hundreds, no thousands, of people. A chill raced up his spine and his body shook. I can't do it! Hae Mina cried as her body began to shake more. Her legs buckled, and she collapsed onto the couch. She wiped her sweating hands on her pants.
Once backstage, the group hurried into the dressing room. Rhee Min-Jun and Naiting Dae-Jung remained behind to deal with the reporters. Inside the room, Dusk collapsed onto one of the couches and the others followed. "I can't believe you did that, Dusk," Yang Dae-Su laughed. "You should have seen the face on the reporters," Jeremy added before draining a bottle of water. Hae Jae-Woo was m
The heat of the restaurant pushed against Hae Mina and Cass. A chill raced down her spine. She looked up to see everyone staring at her and Cass, but she had the feeling it had more to do with her than anything else. All the girls with special tickets were pouting or glaring. Cass laid his hand back on her lower back and guided her nervous and shaking form to the table where Duskin and th
Hae Mina woke to someone nudging her shoulder. Her head slipped before she jerked up and came face to face with Kyung Jiho. "Hae Mina, you better get up quick. We've been looking for you for the past hour and a half. Cass lied to the people at the party and said you had to leave. That was two hours ago. The thirty minutes we weren't looking was occupied by the reporters." "Oh, no. I was t
Nightide reached the city after what seemed like years, and every member was ready to move. The confinement of the jet and limo had them all in a foul mood. Hae Jae-Woo and Kyung Jiho had argued the entire limo ride. "Jiho, if you don't shut up, I'm going to kick your butt again!"
Hae Jae-Woo sat on the grass and panted for air while Duskin lay flat on the ground. "How," Hae Jae-Woo paused, "did you," he gasped for air, "run like that?" "Practice," Duskin replied eyes closed.
Later that evening, Hae Mina fell back on her bed, relieved that at last, she could rest. As she closed her eyes, a smile touched her lips. The sound of the shower running below lulled her to sleep, but her dreams were far from sweet. When Hae Mina next opened her eyes, she was a young child hiding behind a dumpster. The harsh wind sent a chill through her body, but no matter how much she
"Calm down, Hae Mina," Kyung Jiho replied with an odd look. "Why is Minsu ignoring me?" she demanded. Kyung Jiho flopped onto the couch.
Duskin stepped back into the studio where everyone waited. "So how did it go?" Cass questioned from his place on a stool. Duskin felt like a traitor because he had to tell Hae Mina never to talk to Chang Minsu. He knew it had hurt her and he did not like the fact she was upset. However, what bothered him more was that he felt against her. If she was endangering the band, he should not have minded telling her to never speak to Chang Minsu again, yet he had. The fact that she was becoming more important than the band concerned him. He had always looked out for the band, but this one time he wanted to look out for someone else more than them. Why did he want to look out for someone else?
