Dream Glow

*Arin POV*

It was today. The day we had all been waiting for. BTS's debut day.

Our company uploaded teasers for our first single album called "2 Cool 4 Skool" with the title track "No More Dream," a few days ago, both on Twitter and YouTube. Yesterday, the MV for the title track was released on YouTube.

The stylists were getting me ready for our first music show performance which was starting in a few minutes. I was scrolling through the comments under our MV on YouTube. Our fans had mixed reactions upon seeing me, a girl, in a boy group.

As I was revealed last to the public, the news hit them like a truck. People had expected the eighth and the last member would also be a boy like the others. But what can I say? I'm full of surprises.

My train of thought was broken as the stylists finished readying me. I looked at myself in the mirror. My newly dyed greyish-purple hair gleamed under the lights, almost like a mystical aura. I assumed they wanted me to stand out, maybe that's why they dyed my hair a completely different color from the boys, a few days ago. But I can't deny, it does look amazing.

I was wearing a loose full-sleeved shirt which was off-shoulder on one side paired with tight black leather pants. As for shoes, I was wearing black and white sneakers.

Well, I had asked Sejin hyung earlier to allow me to wear loose, "boyish" clothes because I wasn't comfortable with tight girly clothes, and short skirts. And being the good manager that he is, he agreed. So I guess, this much skin (the off-shoulder top) was acceptable for our first show.

I quickly took a mirror selfie and then turned around to see the boys ready and waiting for me.

Sejin hyung exclaimed, "C'mon guys. Is everyone here? Yup! Okay, now listen to me carefully." We all huddled around him, eager to listen. He continued, "This is your first time going on stage. Just be calm and perform like you have done during your practice. And if it makes you feel better, forget the audience exists and focus only on the music and your members. Got it? Go on now, good luck!"

We all nodded and thanked him.

Our leader spoke up, "Okay, come here." We took this as the cue to do our chant and formed a circle. Each one of us placed 2 fingers in the center of the circle when Namjoon said, "Bangtan Bangtan." We completed the chant by saying, "BangBangtan," and chucking our fingers down.

The eight members went up on the stage, ready to show the world what they were made of. The stage lights blinded them momentarily as they stepped onto the platform. A roar erupted from the crowd, a deafening sound that seemed to vibrate through their bodies. The world seemed to shrink to just them and the sea of anticipatory faces.

Arin's heart throbbed in her ears. The reality of the situation hit her like a tidal wave. They were no longer trainees, they were idols, under the harsh glare of the spotlight. Yet, amidst the chaos, a sense of euphoria surged through her. This was what she had dreamed of. With a deep breath, she focused on the music, letting it guide her movements.

As they performed, the world seemed to disappear along with the harsh comments they had read online. There was only the music, the dance, the members, and their connection with the audience. It was a euphoric experience.

The stage lights bathed them in a blinding glow as the music filled the stage. The crowd roared in anticipation, their energy feeding into the performance. Each member found their rhythm, their movements synchronized with the beat.

Jungkook, the center alongside Arin, exuded raw energy, his dance moves sharp and powerful. Jimin, with his graceful fluidity, complemented Jungkook's intensity. Taehyung, with his fierce energy, completed the powerful energy of the maknae line.

Seokjin, the eldest, added a touch of elegance, his smile captivating the audience. Yoongi, with his controlled movements, brought a sense of balance to the performance. Namjoon, the leader, commanded the stage with his charismatic presence. Hoseok, the sunshine of the group, filled the atmosphere with infectious energy. And Arin, placed in the middle, felt a surge of adrenaline as she danced alongside her bandmates. She had spent countless hours practicing, and now, it was all paying off.

Every movement was a testament to their hard work and dedication. The crowd's energy fueled their performance, lifting their spirits to new heights. As she danced, Arin felt a sense of belonging, a connection with the other members that was both thrilling and comforting.
