Authors note: Don't hate me :) I was really tired writing this, even chose random names and messed up a little on context . This is my first time actually writing properly so please, don't hate me.

Beep. Beep. Beep.
The alarm echoed through the large room and it's light flashed away into the darkness. Autumn's feet glided from under the sheets to touch the cold wooden floor, pulling herself up, the automated blinds rose and the mild sunlight dispersed through the large windows. She climbed out of bed, walked towards the bathroom, yawning and stumbling backwards. Grabbed the toothbrush and toothpaste before staring back at her reflection. Her pale white skin radiation and her pink lips pursed, her face felt unfamiliar although it was hers. The pink silk pyjamas she wore to cover her slender frame also presented the changes her body endured. She brushed her teeth, tied up her long brown locks and commenced to shower then getting changed into a pair of casual jeans, heeled boots, a wool sweater and a tan trench coat.
Finally collecting her things, she strutted through the remainder of her large apartment as her heels echoed through. The city in view as it awoke, the cars and small dots which were humans, going to work, school or whatever they had to do.  The door was locked before she stepped onto the lift. From the penthouse to the ground floor. The doors opened.
"Good morning." A petite man with large black glasses, black suit pants and shoes said.
"Morning Luhan."
"I have your coffee. And your car is waiting outside. Did you sleep well?" The small figure shifted excitedly with a wide smile.
"Oh thank you. Come on, we going to be late." Autumn smiled playfully.
They climbed into a black Range Rover and drove into Seouls morning traffic.
Ring. Ring. A phone began to buzz and ring loudly.
"Hello."
"Hi, Autumn?"
"Yes."
"There's an event on today in the regions grand hotel. Exo will be there for interviews and a press conference as well as to stay; its your opportunity to introduce yourself to Lay and Sehen. don't attract negative attention to yourself. You can befriend the boys also."
"Okay. I understand."
"Remember, be memorable. These boys meet thousands of girls on tour, we don't want them to forget you."
"Yes, of course. Thank you." Autumn bowed her head slightly.
"What was that about?" Luhan asked intently.
"It's today."
"Oh no. Put some make up on and check in that bag over there, I brought some suitable clothes in case you had to be formal for a meeting of something- I guess I was right."
"Ahh, thank you! I love you Luhan." She said grabbing the bag rummaging for an outfit whilst removing her clothes.
"Driver! Take us to the regions grand hotel!" He shouted whilst giggling loudly.
"Finally get to meet the boys" Luhan was such a fan boy.
--------------------
They finally arrived. Autumn climbed out the car to be greeted by hundreds of fans blocked by barriers along the paths, she walked confidently although she was so anxious and shaking inside.
"Cause she walks so bad like it feels so good." She sang under her breath comforting her in each step. Luhan following closely behind greeting other celebrities and security at the entrance. The inside was grand as people filled the room; celebrities, musicians, k pop stars, actors and segments of rich and glamorous individuals chatted and laughed amongst themselves.
"Luhan, stay close to me." Autumn said through clenched teeth as she smiled falsely to the group of women approaching her. They wore expensive designer dresses with bobbed or trimmed haircuts.
"Oh darling, you look wonderful." One said hugging Autumn who reciprocated.
"Oh thank you, you all look so beautiful but you'll have to excuse me. This is Luhan." She said politely whilst guiding the boy towards them.
Her axienty  levels peaked. Heart rate rapidly increasing as she speedily paced through the hall into a maze of corridors, up stairs to a private balcony. Pushing the doors open and closing them loudly behind her as she exhaled freely.
"Breath. Breath. It's okay. Be casual. You fit in fine and you can talk to them." Autumn repeated the statement back and forth whilst pacing across until she leant over a marvel pillar.
Her sunglasses holding back her wavy brown hair as she reached into her pocket and removed her e cigarette glancing at the picturesque view, there was no sun now instead a grey cloud spreading across the blue sky.
"You really shouldn't smoke." Her heart sank with the words. She span round to face a tall lean guy with freshly trimmed hair, pink lips, perfect eyebrows with black jeans, a tight fit shirt and Jordan's laced casually yet so formally.
"Oh sorry if I disturbed you." Autumn nervously bowed and smiled.
"No, no feel free. You should really quit smoking, a beauty like you shouldn't want to damage herself that way."
"I'm trying to quit."
"Hmm, good. So you here on? Business or pleasure?" He said lifting his eyebrows and gliding his tongue across his bottom lip.
"Both."
"Hmm, I'm Zhang Yixing. Unfortunately I am here on business but plan to stay a while."
Autumn nodded exhaling the smoke before reaching out and shaking his hand.
"Autumn."
"Like the season?"
"Yes, like the season."
"It's different. I like it."
"Are you doing anything after this?"
"Uh I have some business to attend to so I'll be unavailable tonight."
"Oh okay, could I maybe have you phone number?" He smiled slightly as his fingers tapped along the stone balcony barrier.
"Umm, sure." She wrote her name on a handkerchief illustrating the note with her digits and a kiss.
Beep. He removed his phone and stepped backwards.
"I'm sorry but I have to leave."
Beep.
"Me too."
"Where are you headed?"
"The conference room."
"Oh me too, would you like me to guide you?"
"Yes, that'd be great."
His eyes lit up as he held out his hand and Autumn held on as they traced their steps back to the grand hall then through two doors where a the lights were dimmed. Crowds of people sat in their seats whilst a stage was set with a long table, several seats and a few microphones in front of a white screen. The people spoke in hushed voices as an energy buzzed in anticipation.
"I need to go, lovely meeting you. Autumn is my favourite season." He whispered into her ear before relieving her hand then running around the room and disappearing into a black curtain.
Autumn dazed began to scan the room to find her seat and after walking a good distance through the middle she found Luhan sat on the right front row ahead of tens of people. As the lights of the room dimmed darker and stages white light grew brighter, the audience clapped in preparation, she paced towards her seat.
"Hello ladies and gentlemen. Today we welcome Exo, who are back from their second tour" a polished male figure spoke into a microphone whilst pointing to the large screen. The large screen played an intro of the band and their tour.
"I recognise him." Autumns jaw dropped as she whispered to Luhan.
Cuts from the live performances, some interviews and music videos appeared until it faded black.
"Here is Exo!"
The audience clapped and cheered wildly as the members walked casually on stage, refined and designed individuals smiled and waved.
One was Zhang Yixing. Autumn remained confused until the individual members were introduced.
"Tao"
"Lay"
There he was the bright eyed, guy she'd met on the balcony.
"Sehun"
An attractive thin tall person with a candy floss pink highlights combed into pastel blonde hair with porcelain skin. The lights were came back on and the conference began. Questions were posed towards the members and each replied. Lays eyes had glanced towards the section where she sat whilst others spoke, suddenly his eyes fixed on her. And hers on him.
He smiled and she back.
"Lay?" A interviewer repeated.
He awkwardly nudged by Tao, one of the guys next to him to gain his attention. His eyes now faced the audience.
"As I said before, what are you looking forward to this year in recording or touring for your third album?"
"I'm excited to be back in Korea to write with my friends and relax as well as meet some new people." His eyes trailed back to her.
------------------
The conference was long but when it reached its end, the members dismissed the audience and all the press and crowd dispersed to after parties, dinners or casual hang out areas within the hotel. Autumn glanced at her watch: 19:32pm. She'd arrived here at 09:40am with the conference beginning at 12:00am and finally finishing at 18:00pm and heated conversation so she was in the hotel entrance for a good while. Conversing but so bored.

She had noticed a few young girls repeatedly going through the corridors then back so she decided to investigate. A hallway, an elevator later she arrived at a door and knocked three times. Soon, the door burst open with a tired looking Tao stood in it.
"How can I help you?"
"I'm sorry but I was currently lost and wondering if you guys could direct me-"
An energetic Chen jumped through.
"Come in! Come in! We are having a little gathering!" He said slightly tipsy and laughing.
