Let Me (JayB FF)

CHAPTER 5 - NEXT SCENE

Elle sat on a chair next to the round table, a glass of drink was placed on the table as the setting was in a club. The crew informed her that it was just a regular soda water but they made it to look like an alcoholic beverage. She just needed to sit and watched Yugyeom dancing on the small stage in front of her until he invited her to dance at the end. The music started to play and Yugyeom began dancing under the disco ball. Elle did as instructed, sitting on the chair while watching Yugyeom, sipping on her drink occasionally. Then the music stopped and Yugyeom walked down from the stage, walking toward her. He extended his hand to her and she accepted it. 

Yugyeom guided her up on the stage and she was supposed to turn and swirl before he swooped her in his arm as the finishing act. But it was easier said than done. When she tried it herself, it was quite awkward. Yugyeom's arm was supporting her but she was uncomfortable with her dress. She was conscious about her dress being only knee-length, and with that position, her dress obviously hitched up a bit and she kept thinking whether it looked scandalous on camera or not. With her back bent weirdly and her shoes were a bit slippery, somehow she slipped out of Yugyeom's arm and landed on the floor on her back. Yugyeom was shocked and so did the rest of the crews there. But before Yugyeom got to crouch down to check up on her, someone else was already running fast toward her.

"Don't move. Just lie still," someone told her, and when she looked up, it was Jaebeom.

"Noona, are you okay? Did you hurt your head?" Yugyeom squatted beside Jaebeom, looking worried as well but he didn't know what to do.

"No, I didn't hit my head, but my back and my butt hurt," she tried to move but Jaebeom stopped her.

"Can you wiggle your fingers and toes?" Jaebeom asked again, while removing her shoes from her feet. She wiggled her fingers and toes and he seemed satisfied. "Feeling dizzy?" Again, she shook her head.

"Okay, I guess it's safe to sit down," he concluded and then helped her to get up and sit.

Jaebeom quickly asked a crew to bring a blanket to cover her lower half while Yugyeom started to discuss something with the director and another crew came to give her some water to drink. The stylist also came over to check her hair and makeup.

"Are you really okay, noona?" Yugyeom asked again.

"I am okay," she wanted to stand up but before she managed to do it herself, Jaebeom was already holding her and helping her up. "See, I'm okay," she told both of them after she managed to stand up without any problem.

"Okay then, we should change the move," Yugyeom announced. "When we're on the stage, let's just make you turn slowly to me and then we'll just do this instead," he demonstrated the move with Jaebeom. She watched it carefully before nodding her head, totally agreed that the new move was much easier to do.

The crew helped her to put on her shoes again and she went back to her position earlier. The director started to ask people to clear the set and started the countdown. Yugyeom resumed dancing as the music started to play once again. This time, when she was on the stage, she turned slowly toward Yugyeom and managed to do the ending without any accident. When director shouted, 'Cut!' everyone else was relieved that the scene finally finished without any more problems. Both Elle and Yugyeom bowed to the crew, saying thank you before leaving the set again to change their clothes. Elle took off her shoes and opted to walk barefoot to the prep room to avoid any more accidents. Next was Jackson's turn so the stylist gave her a leather jacket and a pair of black jeans, and put her hair into a simple low ponytail since she would put on a helmet later. Jackson poked his head into the room again.

"They told me you got into a little accident earlier, are you okay?" he sounded concerned.

"Yes, I'm fine. But my back is still hurt a bit," she assured him.
