168 / Music Core

She already loved this performance. The outfits the group got to wear were all so fun and vibrant and cute. Hers was white denim overalls with one blue denim star on each of her knees. The overalls only go over her left shoulder. She has a white and green shirt on (A/N: the one i like is from dopeskill it says 'smile through the pain' with a teddy bear on it) blue denim bucket hat and her green hair is in two pigtails. She had white and green platform sneakers. She warmed up her voice in their dressing room along with some of the boys. She always found it funny because they were so loud and staff would be interviewing other members for the YouTube channel, and like five people yelling always made it so hard to hear.

The group moved to take a group picture, Summer was on the floor next to Hyunjin. She leaned her arm on his shoulder to help balance her. Afterwards they moved to their practice run. Summer felt the floor was quite slippery as she made her way to her starting position.

"Guys watch out the floor is kind of slippery." She informed the members.

"Yeah I can feel it too." Hyunjin agreed, "Be careful." The practice run went well, no one slipping or sliding. Summer just hoped it would be like that for their real performance.

"Stay. I'll show you something sexy." Lee Know spoke before their pre-recording. Seungmin then did a little jump with the jacket he had on off of one shoulder.

"Tada!" He said and the crowd went crazy.

Then the group started their performance. Summer was looking around for a moment, trying to find her fan cam. She looked at one pointing directly at her. She gave the cameraman a point to make sure it was actually hers. The man behind nodded and she gave a little wave to the camera. She then looked down as she waited for the music to start. She started in the back of the group for Changbin's part, which means her and Seungmin both saw Lee Know almost slip within the first few seconds of the performance. The two were both smiling and laughing at this, not being able to contain it. Lee Know gave them an eye roll but a smile came with it. After Changbin's part, she moved so she was directly behind Hyunjin. As he bent backwards, she sang,

번화하는 거리

While coming up from behind him, so it looked like she was pushing him down. For this performance each member got an ending fairy. Jisung gave a little peace sign wave. She could tell he seemed a bit off. This comeback was really hard on him, but oh she was so proud of how much he had accomplished and how hard he was trying. Changbin, being the aegyo king he is, did a cute pout with his finger to his mouth. Felix held up his hands like little paws. Seungmin made his nose look like a pig nose, which made Summer start laughing, which of course it just had to be her turn next. She was laughing at Seungmin when the camera turned to her. She gave a small wave and blew a kiss at the camera while she still laughed. Bang Chan held up a peace sign and Jeongin did a cute hand on cheek moment with an adorable smile. Hyunjin held up his hands like claws at the camera and shook them around. Finally, Lee Know. He did a little jump and then a cute sassy pose. He had everyone laughing, even himself as he turned to Changbin immediately after. Changbin then held out a finger and poked Lee Know's cheek for the end of the fairy. It was cute and funny, between that and Seungmin, Summer was giggling to herself.

"She's in a situationship and the guy asked her out but he ditched her to come see us perform at Music Bank." Jeongin laughed as he read the letter.

"No seriously?!" Summer gasped. Jeongin nodded as he laughed.

"I was kind of amazed by it." He said. Summer was honestly quite nervous to read her letters from Stay. She didn't know why but something felt weird to her. She shrugged it off saying she'd do it at home, but the group was all seated doing it together. That and the staff saying she should do it now. She took a seat and opened the bag of letters.

Hello Summer!

I just wanted to say thank you for trying so hard all the time. I really look up to your perseverance and caring nature. I want to be more like you. Thank you for being such a bright sun for everyone around you. You say you don't deserve us, but reality is we don't deserve you. I will continue to stick by your side and stand up for you.

Thank you again

Then the girl signed it with her name. Summer smiled as she read it, almost bringing her to tears. Chan noticed her just looking at the paper for much too long. He walked over to her, to make sure that it wasn't anything bad. As he looked over her shoulder and read a small bit of the letter, he knew it was just because she was emotional.

Dear Summer,

I hope everything is well with you, I know it's been a while since the breakup but I hope you're doing okay. Please take care of yourself. Don't push yourself too hard and remember to drink lots of water! I love you so much!

She smiled again at the note. Of course, just like everything she got into her head and made everything seem so much worse than it really was.

Summer-

It's me. I'm the fan you hit in the airport.

Her jaw immediately dropped.

This is my apology to you. I was so stupid and so dumb and I never should have invaded you like that. I'm sorry. I deserved the slap and you don't deserve any of the hate you got for it. There is no amount of sorry that could make up for what that put you through. But i'm so sorry.

It wasn't signed with a name. Maybe it wasn't even legit. Maybe it was just some random person pretending to be that guy.

"Hey what's wrong?" Felix noticed her jaw hanging. She just handed him the paper and let him read it. His face was then overcame with the exact same expression.

"Is everything okay?" Chan asked the two. Felix then handed Chan the paper. As he read, his jaw didn't fall but he was surprised, "Oh wow."

"It's probably fake though right?" Summer asked.

"It's not signed. There's a chance of it." He handed it back to her.

"I hope it isn't." Felix said quietly, "He needs to apologize, so I hope that really is him."

"I guess I have no way of knowing." She shrugged before pulling out another letter. She also really hoped it was the guy. She really wanted him to apologize, maybe give her a little sanity back.

A/N: I'm sorry for a shorter chapter yall!!
