IU POV


"IU-sshi, are you ready to perform now? You're next in 5 minutes." I looked at the producer and nod my head in response. 

It's been two months since our agencies announced my relationship with Jimin. It wasn't that bad though, we were forced to go out on date. But we still enjoyed it somehow because we're friends. I also think that the netizens are supporting us. 

The difference here is that when we're going on a date, we think of it as a friendly date. We only do skinships when we're outside like holding our hands and hugging. But we never kiss.

I look at phone and saw one message from Jimin. 

Jimin♥: Hi, noona! Goodluck on your special stage, we'll support you. Fighting! 

I smiled and replied to him. 

"IU-sshi, let's go now." my manager called me so I immediately send my message and stand up to go now for my special stage. 

It's been two months since we've last talked. Only me and Jimin always got a chance to see each other, I barely see BTS now especially him. I don't know but I think I just miss him so much. 

The stage is now ready, I get my guitar and checked if it is on the right tune. I nod to the producer signaling him that I'm now ready. 

I went to the stage and sit together with my guitar. After the MC introduced me, I started strumming my guitar. 

"There I was again tonight, forcing laughter faking smiles. Same old tired lonely face..." 

I looked at the crowd, they're really listening to me. I don't know but this song gives me chills. Like it's perfectly describing my feelings right now. 

These past days, I felt so emotional, I don't know why am I feeling this kind of emotion. It's like my heart wants something but don't know what is it. 

"All I can say it was enchanting to meet you..." I hope they're watching me right now. I hope he's watching me right now. 

"Your eyes whispered, "Have we met?" Acrossthe room your silhouette..." 

This is strange, why I feel like he's always around watching me? I mean it may sound creepy but I feel like he's always there. I tried to find him but found nothing. 

"And it was enchanting to meet you. All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you..." 

The room was filled with silence, only my voice of sorrow can be heard. This is it again, every time I sing this song it tears me up. 

"This night is sparkling, don't you let it go. I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home, I'll spend forever wondering if you knew, I was enchanted to meet you..." 

He's always been there for me. I just realized something, whenever I'm with him I felt so happy. It's like my life is now fulfilled. Whenever I think of him my heart beats so fast that I think I'll have an heart attack. 

Whenever I go to their place, all I can think of was him. I missed him. Without him I think that I can't be happy anymore. 

It's really complicated right now, I don't know what to do. 

"The lingering question kept me up. 2 AM, who do you love?  Iwonder 'til I'm wide awake"

But it seems like he doesn't care to me at all. I was like a lost puppy asking him to notice me whenever I see him.
