Snow White & The Pop Star

4 - The Photo Thief

Arriving at their autograph signing, the Rising Sun members got out of the limousine. Fans swarmed around the band, like a bees swarming around their nests, filled with honey, ready to attack any intruders. Only in this case, the fans weren't getting ready to attack the members. They were getting ready to pounce on the members, like lions ready to pounce on their prey.

The members all and smiled waved at the fans as they got out. Security and their manager made sure that a clear passageway into the building was in order and that fans were giving the members enough space to get through. The crowd was hectic and the noise level was beyond loud.

Hudson's ears were ringing making him scrunch up his face. He wanted to cover his ears so badly, but he realized that it would be rude to do that, so he refrained from doing it and tried to quickly make his way into the building.

Once in the building, the members were guided to a large room where tables were set up along with chairs for the members to sit on. They each took a chair and waited as the doors opened, revealing a flock of excited fans, ready to meet their favorite member of the band. One by one, each fan got in the line and the autograph signing was underway.

The members treated each one of their fans with kindness and love. Their behavior towards their fans was admirable and that was one of the things that made them so loveable, other than their amazing talent of course.

"Daddy," a fan said to Hudson. He slightly scowled at being called that. He didn't like being called that and he even said several times that he didn't liked to be called that. Regardless, he took in a deep breath and smiled charmly at the fan, who melted at his smile and went into love struck mode.

"Thanks for supporting us. Please keep supporting us. Bye," he responded as he smiled and waved at the fan, who went on to the next member. He twiddled his thumbs as he waited for the next fan to come up to him. He let out a sigh as he found himself becoming bored and tapped his pen against the table, while leaning his head against his fist.

"Hudson, stop looking bored and look as if you're happy to greet all of the fans," Tony instructed sternly as he nudged the youngest. Hudson sighed and rolled his eyes as he sat up and pretended to look happy to be there.

As he sat there, constantly fidgeting and trying to entertain himself, he saw a hooded figure in the crowd. He narrowed his eyes as he tried to make out the facial features, but the hood covered most of the figure's face. He squinted his eyes even more and his eyes widened when he recognized the porcelain, pale skin and the bright, red lips.

It was The Red Rose. He was certain that it was her, but he was unsure if he was really seeing her or not. He shook his head and blinked a few times before looking again. His eyes widened more and his heart skipped a beat when he realized that it truly was The Red Rose, standing in the crowd of fans.

A scowl was plastered on her face, but he couldn't see the expression in her eyes. He could tell though that she didn't seem happy. She seemed to cast a sour look at him before turning away and heading into the hallway. He stood up slightly when he saw her leave. He wanted to talk to her. He needed to talk to her. Now was his chance, so he decided to take it.

"I'm gonna head to the bathroom," he muttered in a low voice to Tony, "I'll be back in a bit."

"Alright, be quick though, there are a lot of fangirls waiting to meet you," Tony replied with a small smile. Hudson nodded as he got out of his chair and headed into the hallway.

When he got into the hallway, he noticed The Red Rose standing all the way down the hallway. She was turned towards him and she stood perfectly still. As he slowly approached her, she quickly dashed down a different hall.
