"Tell us, how does it feel to come back here, but as a headliner this time?"
Kat grabbed the mic and answered with a smile "Oh it feels amazing to be back in Wacken! We've been lucky enough to headline some amazing festivals this year, and we could not be more thankful! Last week we played Hellfest, and today we're doing Wacken. It just- We feel very blessed to say the least!"
"Yeah, just like Kat said, we're really happy to play festivals that we used to see on the magazines when we were kids. But I don't think being the opening act or the headliner makes any difference. In both cases we usually have lots of fun, and feel grateful for the opportunity, and how the crowd receives us."
The Crazy Saints were playing what could be described as the most important show of their career, Wacken Open Air. Not just playing, they were Headliners. At the moment, the band could be found doing their usual festival press.
"What is your dream stage, a festival you wish you could play but hasn't happened yet or has already happened. And what would be your dream line up for a festival?"
"For me it has to be Monsters of Rock in Castle Donington, in 1984. As a die-hard Van Halen fan, my dream would be to open for them in that festival. The rest of the lineup was perfect too!"
The other members gave their answers too, and the interviewer moved on to the next questions, until he dropped the juiciest question of them all:
"Before I go, I'd like to ask something a bit more personal. Earlier last year you said in an interview two of you were in a committed relationship. The fans wanna know, is that still the case? Would you be open to some hookups?"
The question, and the way the sleezy interviewer was looking at Kat, rubbed the band members off the wrong way.
"I'm single as fuck right now, Zeke is in a situation-ship so ladies and gentlemen steer clear unless you want a headache. As for our beloved Mike and Kat, they're both taken so if anyone wants them, you better get fucking lost" Eddie answered bluntly before anyone else could.
"Oh c'mon, wouldn't you give any of your fans a shot despite being taken? Maybe even give this handsome, sexy and charming interviewer a chance. They say what happens on tour stays on tour. Isn't that the case with Crazy Saints?" His follow-up question caught the band even more off guard, but now his true intentions had been made clear, he was hitting on Kat.
"Nope! Not a shot, sorry. If I want my boyfriend to respect me, I will respect him too. I love him dearly, and don't need anyone else, he is everything I want and more. Besides, if I was still up for sleeping around, I wouldn't have gotten in a relationship. That'd be stupid."
"We love our fans, but not THAT kind of love!"
"I'm up for grabs, but not interested in you, no offense!"
They all spoke at once, hoping to get it over with, and get out of there as soon as possible.
Kat's mind was swirling. Would Yoongi watch this? If so, what would he think? The interviewer was crossing some very important boundaries and making them all very uncomfortable. Eddie especially was not sugar coating his answers either, and making it known he was not amused. They were all so fed up that as soon as the interview was over, they left without even saying goodbye to the creepy interviewer.
An hour later, they were getting ready backstage, before they put on their in-ear monitors, they could still hear the crowd go nuts as the previous band left the stage.
"It's on boys!"
They went out and played possibly the most memorable concert of their lives. The atmosphere was second to none, the crowd was without a doubt, the craziest they had ever played for. By the time their set ended and after they did the encore, all four members looked like they'd just hopped out of the shower, looking all sweaty with soaking wet hair.
"I don't know if I can go back to playing small venues after this!"
"Yeah, only stadium tours from now on for me!"
"This was amazing, but I also miss the intimate energy when we played clubs." Kat said.
"I agree with Kat! Besides, playing small venues makes me feel like a glam metal band in the 80's, playing clubs on the strip, trying to make it big. Ya know what I mean? When we play clubs, I suddenly feel like Poison or Mötley Crüe in their early days."
They were heading to the backstage cafeteria, so engrossed in conversation they didn't even notice the man coming towards them, his face hidden behind a mask. You couldn't really tell who he was just by looking at him, which he did on purpose to stop any more rumors about him and Kat form resurfacing. All you could see were his eyes, that were shining like stars when he set his eyes on the pretty singer, and the small flower bouquet in his hands.
"Yoongi?? What are you doing here?"
"I couldn't miss the most important show of your career, now could I? What kind of boyfriend would that make me?"
"You'd still be the most amazing boyfriend, although I have to admit it would make me a bit sad."
"See, my boyfriend spidey-senses were tingling" he said jokingly. "I had to make sure you had the most perfect day."
When Yoongi finally acknowledged the rest of the band, they wouldn't stop teasing the couple for their mushy moment. They invited Yoongi to come to dinner with them and the rest of the crew, which he accepted immediately.
It was around 2am when they headed back to their hotel. To Kat's surprise, Yoongi was actually staying at the same hotel as she was, only a couple of floors above her. As it turns out, Yoongi had talked to her band-mates beforehand, and they helped him pick the hotel, and get through security at the concert so he could watch the whole thing backstage and surprise his girlfriend.
"I still can't believe you came all the way here just to see me play a show" Kat said as they entered her hotel room. The couple decided to sleep in her bedroom, as it was the closest one.
"C'mon, it wasn't just 'a show', it was your biggest show so far! I wouldn't miss it for the world, you know it!"
"I bet you had lots of important stuff to do back in Korea, what does Bang PD even think of this?"
"It doesn't matter. You're more important than any of that."
Kat closed her eyes, put her hands on Yoongi's chest as she let out a breathy laugh and said: "God, how did I get so lucky! You're perfection in human form. Just when I thought you couldn't get any sexier!"
"What can I say? My parents raised me right, I guess" he smirked, placing his hands on her hips.
She kissed him passionately, pushing him onto the bed. He happily complied, pulling her on top of him.
"I want you so bad right now!"
"I've been wanting you since I saw you on that stage, you're so hot when you're playing."
"Ugh, I didn't bring any condoms. I wasn't expecting you to fly all the way here."
"I don't have any either. I guess I didn't plan this far ahead." he chuckled awkwardly. It was too late, and no pharmacies or stores were open nearby.
"I bet Eddie has some, but he's somewhere out there partying. He was our best shot."
"I'm clean and you're too so there's that. Are you on the pill?"
"No," she said feeling defeated. " What do we do now?"
"Do you trust me?"
Her need for Yoongi at that moment was very high, to the point of not caring anymore. She knew what Yoongi was suggesting, and she trusted him to be responsible.
