It wasn't fun anymore when we stood under the stage and everything was ready. We are in our costumes and the staff is just fixing Chris's microphone.
' you ready?' He asked. Nobody answered.
' Okay on your positions!' the manager said.
' just be yourself, okay?' Chris said and ran on side.
I see a little bit od crow and it's full. My heart races like crazy.
When the music starts I close my eyes and just let my body do what it do best.
On the stage I open my eyes and almost choke. Oh my lord there is thousands of people. Of fans that scream like crazy when Chris starts singing. I love this feeling. All of my worries just disappeared.
After first song we hide in the backstage. A few staff run to us and give us bottles of water. I open it and almost inhale it. My adrenaline is slowly disappearing and my energy with it. We have ten more minutes before next song so I lay down on the floor.
' you good?' Sam asks.
' I'm fine, just need a minute'
' I feel you, this is incraneble' she sits next to me.
I sit and look at her. She's twenty two years old, has a job, a boyfriend and still has time for this. I just want to know how.
' alright get up its show time' she says and hand me a hand.
' of course' I say confidently.
After one hour time for the last dance. The most intimate one. The one I dance with Chris and we touch in the most time. It's not usual in kpop for and idol to dance like this with his backup dancer. But times chances just like trends. And maybe we stat a new trend.
I put on my mask and on in the centre of the stage. Lights are off and Chris isn't here yet. I loom around for him. This wasn't in the plan.
Music starts playing and when I start panicking Chris take my hend and lead the way. I exhale in relief.
The crow is silent. Like death silent. I'm concentrating on my steps and I'm carefull about my hands. When I turn to face Chris he looks relaxed and his voice is angelic. I avoid his eyes and when he spin me around and we end the song with pose my cheeks are on fire. Because of the dancing of course.
Back in the backstage I sit on a couch and drink another bottle of water. I watch the room in peace. Every sound is in fog and my mind is somewhere else.
' you were great' says nirijo
' you too' I sag and wake myself from dreaming.
' the last dance - amazing' He gesture in the air.
' shut up' I say and stand up to grab some food.
I make myself instant Noodles and while I wait for them to boil this come in the room. Nobody seems to care even that this is dancers makeup room. He goes my way and grab pack of BBQ chips from the buffet table. And than notice me.
' how are you feeling' He leans against the table opposite me.
' better than when you came on last minute. Do you realise how much you scared me?' I say and and pour out water from my noodles.
' oh this, sorry I had a problem with my microphone' He explain
' Okay, I didn't know that sorry' I don't look at him as I add the sause and flakes in my noodles.
' you like spicy?' He asks and points on the pack I'm pouring.
' I love spicy food. Do you?' I ask and take a big bite. I didn't realise how hungry I am.
' I don't love them. But I like to eat them at home' He says.
'Hhm' I say with my mouth full.
' Okay, enjoy your meal' He laughs and leaves.
I come home around midnight. Mom is at work and Charlotte is watching TV. When she notice he she jumps from the couch and run to me.
' so, talk. Everything' she says in excitement
' the best night of my life' I say with a big smile.
' I'm so proud of you my little sister' she hugs me.
' don't be too nice I'm not gonna wash the dishes after you' I say. We both laught.
' I knew you're going to do it. Keep going'
' I will. But now. I'm going to bed. Night, Char'
' sweet dreams'.
I take a quick shower and than hop to bed and try to as much sleep as I can.
