I Work For Who?!

Concert Dilemma

I was pacing back and forth in the practice room, waiting for the boys to arrive. Tonight was the night of the concert in Seoul, and we had a lot to go over before that. The door opened a bit and I expected all 7 members to come pouring in but it was only the manager.

"Hey Selly. Where is everyone? We have to head to the concert arena for 9 to begin practice." He said walking closer to me.

"I'll try calling Namjoon again." Just then the manager's phone rang. He answered the phone and nodded.

"Selly, I've got some bad news. Kim Seokjin's hair dresser has fallen ill. She won't be able to do his hair for the night." My heart sank. Oh no. Why was this happening now?!

"Is it too late to try and a replacement?" I said frantically. He half nodded.

"I'll get on the phone right away and try to arrange some things. You make sure to get the boys here within the next 2 hours. Here." The manager handed me a thick plastic card.

"This is for their dorm building. If they don't pick up go there and wake them up yourself. I'll make sure to contact you about the stylist." I nodded and dialed Namjoon's number again. No answer.

"Aish! Of all days to sleep in guys, it had to be today?!" I said throwing my phone in my bag and heading for the door. I held the handle for a moment. Their dorm was only a few blocks from here I could probably run there. There's no time for public transportation. I have to wake them up, then we have to come back here and finish putting all the outfits and props and what not into bags and get them on the tour bus. We were only going to the other side of Seoul, luckily. If we were going over seas I have a feeling we'd be a major disaster.

I ran as fast as I could to the dorm and as soon as I got there I swiped the car and ran up the stairs to the 3rd floor. By now I was absolutely out of breath, but the whole excursion as already taken me 15 minuets. I reached their door and swiped the card and collapsed onto the floor the door hitting my side as it swung back. I slipped off my sneakers and laid on the floor catching my breath. Okay! Time to wake up the boys! I tiptoed to the first bedroom. There were Ryan stickers on the door. Namjoon and Tae's room. I slowly opened the door.

"Hello? Anyone awake in here?" I heard a murmur and some movement.

"Hello?" I said a bit more loudly. Someone rolled over and sat up.
"Namjoon?" He looked over in my direction.
"Ah Selly!" He quickly pulled the blankets up to his chin.
"Why are you guys still sleeping?! We have 1 hour to be at the concert auditorium. Help me wake everyone up." I said pulling the blankets off Tae.
"Selly, don't wake up Suga, he'll swear at you." I nodded and headed for the next room. I knocked lightly on the door.
"Jungkook?" I heard muffled noises and walked closer to them. When I reached the bed I saw the bare upper torso of Jungkook.
"Jungkook. Time to wake up ." He turned his head, then opened one eye.
"Selly?" He said looking up sleepily. I smiled and bowed slightly.
"Good morning. You need to wake up. You have the concert tonight and we need to get everything prepared." He sat up and ran his fingers through his hair.
"Ah! Selly!" He said pulling the blankets up to his chin his face slightly red. Just then Tae burst through the door.
"Oh Selly you already woke up Kookie. Can I help you wake up everyone else?"
"Oh, if Tae's helping I want to help too!" He said springing out of bed.
"Alright! Let's go!" I said grinning. Jungkook put on a shirt and we walked to the next room on the other side of the living room.
"Next is Jimin and Hobi!" Tae Tae said grinning. Jungkook slowly opened the door.
"JIMIN!!!" Tae shouted and jumped on Jimin.
"Argh!" Jimin groaned.
"Good morning!" Jungkook and Hobi said together. Hobi stood on his bed and starting yelling.
"Oh Selly! Good morning!" He said. I bowed slightly.
"Please get ready quickly, you too Jimin. We have to get to the concert hall! Get ready in 5 minuets!" I said leaving the 4 of them in the room. I knocked lightly  on the door and entered.
"Suga, Jin?" Jin sat up and put his fingers to his lips.
"Selly, be careful  Suga is absolutely not a morning person." He said getting up.
"I'm going to go freshen up. I won't be long."
"Alright. We all need to be out of here in 10 minuets if you could help me with the other members." I pleaded. He nodded and left the room. I walked over to Suga's bed and peaked at him. He was wearing a black shirt and dark blue shorts.
"Suga?" I whispered. No responses. I sighed.
"Suga. You have to wake up now." I poked his shoulder. His eye opened and he looked up sleepily at me.
"The fuck?" He said before rolling over. Huh, Namjoon was right, he did swear at me. I'll try one more time. I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair. Alright!
"Suga, it's time to wake up..." I said shaking his shoulder gently. He rolled over and looked at me squinting.
"Oh Selly! I apologize for swearing at you."
"That's fine. But we have to get ready to go to the concert hall. You've got 5 minuets. Please be ready." He nodded and I left the room.
***********************
When we all reached Big Hit the bus was outside as well as the manager.
"Oh Selly you got everyone! Everything is on the bus so everyone get on it else we're going to be very late." I looked behind me at everyone.
"You heard him! Everyone get on the bus!" I said clapping my hands together. Jungkook came over to me and placed his arm around my shoulder pulling me close to his chest.
"I like seeing you bossy Selly. It's cute." I looked up at him and he just smirked and opt his bags in the trunk. I got in the bus and sat next to the manager with a sigh.
"You okay?" He said looking at me.
"Suga swore at me."
"Did you wake him up?" I nodded looking down at my knees. He ruffled my hair.
"Don't take it personally Selly. He even swears at the other members." He laughed and looked out the car window.
***********************
When we arrived at the concert all we headed for the dressing room backstage.
"Alright boys! I want you to go onto the stage and check it out and go over everything with the crew. Then start practicing. We have 10 hours!" The manager said. The boys nodded and bowed.
"Selly we have a bit of a problem..." The manager said staring at his phone.
"Jin's hair stylist called in sick officially." He clicked his tongue.
"Should I begin making calls for hairstylists?" I said taking my phone out of my back pocket. The manager tapped his chin.
"No. I'm sure we have enough time, but we'll have to pay them a higher allowance for the short notice." I nodded.
"How about you do it Selly." I gulped then nodded.
"Yes." Just then the boys came back in.
"This place is amazing!" Jungkook said.
"The stage is so big. I'm excited to be able to perform on it." Jimin said smiling.
"Selly come with us." Namjoon said slipping his arm around my shoulder.
"Yeah! Let's have some fun before we have to practice!" Tae said grinning.
"Selly, go ahead. Just be back here in 30 minuets." Manager said.
"Yay! We get to play with Selly!" Hobi said.
"Can I just sleep here? I've already seen the stage." Suga said sitting on the couch. I giggled.
"You may Suga! Sleep well." I called as we all left the room.
"Can we play hide-and-seek?" Tae said.
"No Tae! We're supposed to be showing Selly stuff."
"Yes. Let's start with the under the stage tunnels." Hobi sighed.
"That's not the fun part though. The fun part is the stage. Duh. Let's show her that first instead of the boring tunnels Namjoon." Jungkook, Tae, and Jimin all nodded. Namjoon rolled his eyes.
"Fine." We walked backstage and onto the stage.
"Whoa." I said looking around.
"Don't you guys ever feel stage fright. That's a lot of seats out there that are going to be full of thousands of people." I looked around more. Not to mention the thousands of seats, but there was a vast empty space in front of the stage that will be full of people.
"Selly do you have stage fright?" They all said coming closer to me.
"Yeah your face looks kind of pale." Jin said standing closer to me.
"Wow! You're right Jin!" Tae said.
"Let's get her back to the dressing room before she throws up or something gross." Jin said placing his hand on my back. Jin's hand was very gently placed on my back. I glanced up at him slightly and saw that he had a worried expression on his face.
"Hey Selly?" Namjoon said walking next to me.
"That dress looks good on you." He said grinning. I smiled back.
"Thank you." When we got back to the dressing room Suga was still asleep on the couch.
"Suga-Hyung move over Selly doesn't feel good." Hobi said tapping Suga's shoulder. Suga grumbled and sat up.
"Wow. You really don't look good. Need some water?" Suga said standing up. I nodded and pointed to the mini-fridge. Suga walked over and handed me a water bottle.
"Thank you Suga." Jin sat down next to me and looked my face over.
"Do you feel better now Selly?" I nodded and continued to drink water.
"I never knew I had stage fright before. There weren't even people out there." I laughed slightly.
"That's okay Selly. We all have some level of stage fright." Jin said smiling.
"That's right!" Jimin said.
"Ah! You guys have to start practicing!" I said standing up.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go!"
"Wahh! Selly's being bossy!" Hobi said laughing. The boys began to leave the room to head back to the stage.
"Oh, Jin!" I unconsciously reached for his arm. It was surprisingly soft and smooth.
"Can I speak with you for a moment?" I took my hand off his arm and laughed nervously. He nodded and turned to face me.
"Your hairstylist called out sick, so for the concert I'll be doing your hair." His face lit up.
"Really?!" I laughed and nodded.
"Yep! I'll do my best!" He held up his fist.
"Fighting!"
"Yep! Fighting!"
******************************
Time: 2 hours before the concert
The boys  were beginning to get ready and there was a lot of commotion in the dressing room.
"Where's Taehyung?" I  said looking around the dressing room.
"He's in the bathroom." Jungkook said. I looked around at each of the members. My first concert with the guys and they didn't seem even a little nervous. Suga was listening to music on the couch. Jungkook and Jimin were eating snacks. Namjoon was practicing lyrics of their songs. Jin and Hobi were practicing their dance moves in the mirror. I smiled to myself and smoothed down my hair.
"Selly?"
"Yes?" I said turning around.
"Are you alright? Do you still not feel good?" Jin said looking at me.
"I'm just a bit nervous. Everyone Seems so calm. I'm nervous for you guys I guess." He smiled sympathetically.
"Don't worry Selly." He rubbed my head.
"Ya!" Tae said running over to us.
"You're being too familiar with Selly!" Tae said fixing my hair.
"She looks so cute. Don't mess up her hair."
"She looks cute because I bought her that dress!"
"She has swag, I'll admit that."
"Selly is like our princess!"
"She is cute..." Hobi ran over to me and hugged me close to his body.
"Selly is mine!"
"Alright everyone time to get ready!" The manager said clapping his hands. "What's going on in here?" He said looking at all of us.
"Just getting ready!" Suga said. We all smiled and went about our business. The boys began to put their first performance outfits on.
"Jin, time for hair." I said calling him over. He sat down in front of me and looked at me in the mirror. I began to run my fingers through his hair. It was really soft and smelled kind of like apples. He closed his eyes and sighed.
"Jin?" He grunted. I smiled.
"Do your best tonight." He looked at me a bit shocked.
"T-thanks Selly. I'll admit, I'm a bit nervous, because I'm not as good as dancing as the other members. This concert has a lot of difficult dance moves." He I pat his head.
"Don't worry Jin. I'm sure you'll do just fine!" I smiled at him and he smiled back.
"Thank you Selly. I'll really do my absolute best!" After I finished Jin's hair and makeup the boys went out and performed their concert. It was truly breath taking! Seeing them come alive on stage was thrilling. They ran back to the dressing room where I was waiting to great them.
"Selly did you see us?" Tae said running to me.
"Yes, good job!" I said clapping.
"Selly I did my absolute best with the dance moves." Jin said side hugging me.
"Yes! Good job Jin!" His face lit up and all he could do was smile. Seeing how happy the boys were after their performance sparked a light in me. I want to see more of their concerts and be able to support them to my best abilities. After tonight I really feel as though I'm a part of the BTS family. I smiled to myself and jumped around happily with everyone for the great concert.
