Zanaya's POV
"You sure you're okay?" Max asked me while she feels my forehead.
We have a performance later in Serene Music but I'm not feeling really well.
But of course, I can't let this little cold and slight fever get in the way. We worked hard for this.
We're now promoting Full Circle Album.
"It's okay. I can do this." I cheered while looking at the three girls who's all staring at me worriedly.
We're now dressed in our performance outfit.
"Here, drink this." our manager gave me a medicine which I took and quickly drink.
"You're on in ten."
One of the producers came into our room to inform us so the girls and I all stood up to get ready. Then, we went our way to the studio where we will be recording.
Once we arrive, we occupied the empty seats on the audience that are allotted for artists during rehearsals.
Then, a familiar sound echoed across the room.
I looked up and saw SHADOW performing.
I almost forgot. They are now promoting their new song which is a masterpiece.
I and the girls had watched the music video and it is definitely a work of art.
Soon enough, my eyes landed on Seth who's doing his opening part on Nirvana, their new song.
I gulped.
Isn't it illegal to look that hot and sexy? I mean, why does he need to show his skin like that?
That flirt.
Unknowingly, I started to get pissed off again.
Wait, why are you even bothered by it? It's not like he's really into a relationship with you. Plus, that's his job.
It must be the meds. I'm starting to think weirdly.
"Hey, look at our seniors. They really are amazing!" Tokyo dreamily exclaimed.
"I wish I can dance like them," California added.
"You dance really well, Cali," Max told her.
My eyes went back to the stage, particularly to Seth. I felt my whole world stopped when I saw him glanced in my direction.
It was brief but I thought I saw him smirk after his eyes landed back to the camera.
Fuck, did he saw me checking him out?
"Did you saw Seth senior smirk after looking at you?" Max asked me.
"I'm not sure. I wasn't looking."
Max's brow furrowed. '"Liar. You used to have a crush on him." she whispered.
My eyes went wide.
"I did not!" I told her as I hit her shoulders lightly.
She chuckled. "Whatever you say Zaya."
Then, the four of us stood up when their turn ended.
We're up.
While we walk up to the stage, SHADOW walked towards our direction to get back to their dressing room.
I bowed once our seniors walked past us. Before I can even climb the stairs to follow the girls, I felt Seth's hand slipped into mine and got me a little startled.
"Good luck," he whispered not even looking.
I was about to move forward when I felt him pull me back a little.
I looked around and sigh in relief when I saw that no one was looking at us.
I looked at him and was about to hiss when he suddenly felt my forehead.
"You're hot. Are you sick?" he asked.
I was taken aback because he looked so worried like he really cared.
I pushed his hands off me afraid that someone might see us.
We can't afford to have a scandal right now.
"I'm fine. I need to go." then I bowed once more and took off to the stage.
"Hey, what took you so long?" California asked.
"Nothing, I just fixed my dress a little."
After a few minutes, we started doing our performance.
I am glad we're just sitting on our song "Move" because I was getting a little dizzy after we did "Fire in your Eyes".
Once we ended our performance, I can already feel the drops of sweat on my forehead so I walked a little faster so I can be out of stage.
"Hi, you were amazing there. I'm a fan!" I was caught off-guard when I saw Sky cheering for me.
I looked around and saw Mono and Seth behind him. Seth looked like he's so done with his group mates.
I noticed that we were just outside their dressing room while ours is still on the farther side of the hallway.
If I wasn't really feeling unwell, I would probably fangirl in front of these guys.
Suddenly. The room felt like spinning, I had to grab the nearest chair beside me for support.
Before I even knew it, Seth had grabbed my arm. I looked up and saw him a little pissed but his eyes looked like he was worried.
"I knew it. You're sick." he muttered as if scolding me.
His left arm landed on my forehead and I swear I heard him curse.
""Hey, Zanaya, are you okay?" Mono asked as I try to stand properly.
"Yes, Mono senior. I apologize for worrying you"
I tried to stand still while Seth's hands are still on my arms.
"I'll accompany you to your dressing room." he said firmly.
"No. I'm fine Seth senior," I said as I look at the other two who were just gawking at both of us,
"Where are your group mates?"
"They stayed a little to greet our fans," I said shyly as I play with hands.
"Stop being stubborn and let me go with you." he said as his hand landed on my back so we can move forward but after my third step, my knees gave up and my body almost crashed into the ground if not for Seth.
"Aissst." he muttered but I was caught off-guard when he suddenly lifted me up bridal-style.
"Hey, Seth!" I hear Mono.
"Senior, please put me down." I said in a panic.
People might see us like this.
"Cover your face," he said which I did.
Then he just walked towards our dressing room's direction.
I had to catch my breath because I can smell his perfume.
How does he smell this good after they danced really hard earlier?
My heart started beating so fast. I haven't been really close with him like this before.
"Hey, Sky, open the door." I heard Seth.
Then I felt my body landed on the soft couch.
I opened my eyes and saw Seth removing his jacket as he covers my legs.
Right, I was wearing a skirt.
Then I saw Sky coming closer with a pillow on his hand before he gave it to Seth.
I tried to sit down but Seth hit me lightly on my arm.
"Don't sit. Here, lift your head a little." then, he put the pillow on my head.
"Thanks. seniors, I'm okay. You and Sky senior can go back. The girls will soon arrive."
"Don't worry about us Zanaya. I'm afraid Seth here would flip if we don't make sure you're fine." Sky said meaningfully as he looked at me and Seth.
I looked at Seth and saw him glaring at Sky.
"Please don't misunderstand, senior." my left hand landed on my lower lip, a habit I came to develop.
"Oh, you're so cute." I blushed as Sky flashed his rectangular smile.
I laughed a little when he looked away once Seth glared at him.
Unintentionally, a yawn escaped my lips. It maybe because of the medicines that I took earlier.
"Stop flirting with each other. Try to get some sleep. I'll stay here until your girls arrive." I closed my eyes unable to handle the drowsiness that is eating me.
"Hmmm,.." A groan escaped on my lips when I felt someone brushing my hair with his hands.
It feels so comforting, soothing. And it makes me wanna go to sleep.
Soon enough, I was off to the dreamland but before the darkness eats me, I heard a soothing voice whispered on my ear.
"Sleep, tight princess..."
Seth's POV"Is it necessary for you to pick her up bridal style dude?" Mono scolded me.I understand what he's pointing out. Some people might see us and get the wrong idea."She's a rookie. Imagine the hate that she'll get once people see the two of you." Raze added.We're now back at our dorm. Sky and I had to follow because the boys had gone first."Raze, stop scolding Seth. Zanaya was really sick. She immediately passed out once her back touches the couch." I looked at Sky,a little grateful for backing me up.I heard Demo sigh."We understand. We're just worried not only for you Seth but for the girl as well. Remember,in our industry, it's always the girl that gets the most hate when people found out that you're dating.""But we're not dating," I told them. Well, except that we're actually married. I told myself.
Zaya's POVMy eyes squinted a little when I heard the door on my room squeaked, suggesting that someone came in. Too exhausted and eyes too tired, I did not even bother checking who it is. Well, it's probably just one of the girls. I and the girls were supposed to do a Video live this evening but my body isn't really cooperating right now.After Snow and the girls had woken me up earlier from my short slumber, we quickly made our way back to the dorm so I can take a rest. I can barely even remember how I was able to get in the house because I was damn sure I was stone-cold and knocked-out on the van earlier.If I weren't actually sleeping on the couch on a music show, I swear I wouldn't even move an inch. A small smile tugged at the corner of my lips when I remember how peacefully I have been sleeping earlier.I was dreaming about my husband. Yeah, my jerk of a husband, Seth Devon.
Seth's POVI wiped the invisible sweat on my hands to the side of my pants,a little uneasy with all six pairs of orbits staring straight at me."Okay,so you're telling us that you meet up with your high school friend and you ended up sleeping over?" Raze asked,his arms across his chest.I nodded a little vigorously."And that the highschool friend was a boy?" Mono grilled.Again, I nodded.I scold myself for being a little careless.After I called Zaya's Mom, I went to their dorm and brought some of her favorite food.Imagine how shocked Cali is when she opened the door and found me.I had to explain that Zaya's and my family are close and that her mom had sent me to bring her stuff.Though a little skeptical,I was glad that she allowed me to come in.A smile
Zanaya's POVI flinched a little after Seth had slammed his arms on the wall,enclosing my body between his, tightly holding my wrist ensuring that I won't escape."What are you doing?" I asked him a little scared of his sudden outburst.Our recording in Senere Musics just ended and I was about to go back to where the girls are after I came out of the restroom when I felt a pair of strong hands pulled me harshly and slammed me on the wall.I felt a surge of pain on my back but I soon pushed that thought because standing in front of me is my husband,Seth Devon,eyes fuming in anger.For the first time, I felt scared of him. We never had any confrontation like this before."Who do you think you are?" he asked me,his eyes boring deeply into mine."What are you talking about?" I'm not sure what he's getting mad about. We never real
Zanaya's POVIt's okay Zaya,you can definitely do this. You've practiced so hard for this. I told to myself as I prepare in backstage.I was on a variety show where I need to sing and people would have to guess who I am. I am truly grateful to our CEO for allowing me to do this and I don't really want to put this chance a waste.And then I remembered how Seth happened to be one of the panelists outside.He didn't really know it was me right?Not once did he ever complimented my singing and I bet he was a little disappointed that I won that round.But the way that he looked at my direction earlier feels like he was able to see through my mask. To be honest,I never even thought about getting past the first stage but I was glad and thankful. But them again,I was never used to getting on stage alone. For five years,
Seth's POV"Hey, Seth. Can you please smile a little? Our fans put some effort to see us. Frown all you want after this fan meeting."I sigh at what Demo told me.I looked around and saw the faces of our fans. They are all excited to see us. I closed my eyes, a long sigh escaped my lips,and then a smile automatically appeared on my face.Regardless of how frustrated I am,I shouldn't be failing our fans. They don't deserve it."Hey, are you okay?" I looked at Grey who's looking at me, a worried expression written all over his face."What's wrong? Why are you getting so much affected by your dating scandal now?You never cared before?" Sky teased me."It's because his real girlfriend will be upset." I pushed Demo at what he said."Hey,it's not that."The truth is, I'm not usually bothered
Zanaya's POV"I miss our dogs."I look at Max as she pouted.We're on our way back to our dorm straight from the airport."Me too."A yawn escaped my lips at California's response.We've just entered inside of our van and I smiled as I see our Blinks outside, thankful that they came to see us even if it's already past midnight here."Yah, Zaya, look at this. Isn't this Ji Hyun? She's trending" Tokyo said as she showed me her phone.My brows furrowed at what she said. Why would she trend? She's my niece and not a lot of people know her.I moved a little closer to Tokyo as Max and California moved closer as well.My breath hitched and my mouth hangs wide open after seeing Ji Hyun's face, smiling at Seth. Moreover, I was shocked to see Seth smiling widely at my niece.They l
Zanaya's POV"Are you really not going to attend the music show this year?" I heard Sky asked California. Before I can even hear her response, I carefully closed the door and face the man who's been causing a lot of problems in my life right now."Are you crazy?Why did you bring them here?"I spat as I paced back and forth in front of him.We are now inside my room while the rest of both our members outside being all awkward with each other."What do I do?" I said as I bite my index finger."Hey, stop that. You're making me dizzy," he said as he sat comfortably on my bed.My cheeks blushed into crimson red after a while. I looked into him and noticed how comfortable he looked as he sat on my bed, his arms are leaning on his side for support."You look a little too comfortable in my bed,stupid," I told h
