"Wah~ I'm so hungry!" Y/n whined as he sprawled onto the carpet of the dressing room.

"Hey, you're gonna mess up your clothes and makeup." Mitsuya deadpanned as he nudged the boy with his foot.

"Don't care." Y/n grumbled, cheeks puffed as he felt his stomach grumble rather painfully.

"Y/n! Get up because we're gonna start the show soon!" Kazutora huffed, trying to pull the boy up onto his feet.

"NOOOO!!"

Mitsuya sighed, rubbing his trembles with two fingers. These guys really are troublesome. He wonders how he's put up with them for so long.

"C'mon, Nagi! You're not seriously gonna be on your phone the whole time, are ya'?" Reo sighed, glancing at the boy beside him.

"I've gotta boost my stats. It's not like I wanted to come either...You just showed up and brought me here." Nagi mumbled, tapping away at his phone while slightly furrowing his brows.

"Well, yeah. I happen to have gotten tickets to this show, and obviously I'm not going to come here alone. Plus, you need to go outside more! Live a little!" Reo huffed.

"I'm very much alive. I have been for years now." Nagi said, earning an eye roll.

Soon, the lights in the stadium shut off, and Reo immediately perked up.

"Nagi, they're gonna start soon. At least pay attention for a while." Reo said, flicking on his glow stick.

"Hmm..."

Nagi kept his eyes pinned to his screen, the blue light shining on his face and barely making his facial features visible in the dim stadium.

Just ahead, the spotlight shone with a dramatic boom, and the crowd erupted in cheers upon seeing a group of 5 boys lined up.

They all held all sorts of glow sticks, waving and spinning them. One color especially stood out though. Red. The color red.

Nagi's ears were hit by the sudden wave of singing and background music, along with the chorus of cheers from fans all around.

'So loud...' He couldn't help but think.

However, he felt a spark of interest light up within him. He didn't know why though. He just suddenly...felt inclined to look ahead where the stage stood just a few feet away from him.

Reo, of course, snagged tickets closest to the stage, and Nagi had no idea whether to be thankful or not. Initially though, he felt disgruntled since it meant they'd have a hard time leaving quickly compared to those in the far back.

But right now, Nagi felt...drawn to the idol group. Most specifically, the male that stood in the center.

Y/n grinned widely as he sang, his dark eyes swirling with mystery and infinity. Whatever that meant...?

Nagi just felt...charmed, as one would say.

That had him quite dumbfounded. I mean, he doesn't even know the boy's name. Judging by his appearance though, he couldn't be older than him. Probably the same age? Or younger?

"Reo..." Nagi mumbled.

It was a surprise the rich lad heard him.

"What's up?" Reo questioned, glancing at him.
