There she was.
Standing in front of the mirror.
sigh
*hyejin pov*
I can do this.
Breathe in and our hye, in and out.
I grab the mic and go to the platform under the stage.
I look over to the pd, "is everything ready?" I ask her
"Yup! You're on in three two one!"
I look down and bring the mic to my lips.
The platform rises up slowly
The music starts and I open my mouth to start singing.
Wow.
there are so many people here, here to listen to my story.
*end of hye's pov*
As Hyejin rises up she stares at her feet.
The music slowly starting.
"Found you when your heart was broke
I filled your cup until it overflowed
Took it so far to keep you close (Keep you close)
I was afraid to leave you on your own
I said I'd catch you if you fall
And if they laugh, then fuck 'em all (All)" Hyejin sings as she looks up and starts walking to the middle, the table set up and a man sitting there with a mask on.
She sits and starts singing again.
"And then I got you off your knees
Put you right back on your feet
Just so you can take advantage of me
Tell me how's it feel sittin' up there
Feeling so high but too far away to hold me" she looks up at him with teary eyes. She points at him and sings her heart out.
"You know I'm the one who put you up there
Name in the sky
Does it ever get lonely?
Thinking you could live without me
Thinking you could live without me
Baby, I'm the one who put you up there
I don't know why (yeah, I don't know why)
Thinking you could live without me
Live without me
Baby, I'm the one who put you up there
I don't know why (I don't know why, yeah yeah)
Gave love 'bout a hundred tries (hundred tries)
Just running from the demons in your mind
Then I took yours and made 'em mine (made 'em mine)
I didn't notice 'cause my love was blind"
Hyejin gets up and goes over to him. He gets up and starts yelling and screaming at her.
He yells at her. She pushes him away and walks back to the table as he walks off stage.
A woman approached her, the woman tried to reason with her and started yelling at her. The woman grabbed Hyejin's shoulders and shook her. Hyejin looks down and starts crying while singing.
"Said I'd catch you if you fall (fall)
And if they laugh, then fuck 'em all (all)
And then I got you off your knees
Put you right back on your feet
Just so you can take advantage of me
Tell me how's it feel sittin' up there
Feeling so high but too far away to hold me
You know I'm the one who put you up there
Name in the sky
Does it ever get lonely?" She contiues while trying to push the woman off of her. She starts screaming back at the woman. The woman hides behind a mirror and Hyejin walks up to it. She looks at the woman, that's representing herself. She yells at herself for being stupid and naive.
"Thinking you could live without me
Thinking you could live without me
Baby, I'm the one who put you up there
I don't know why (yeah, I don't know why)
Thinking you could live without me
Live without me
Baby, I'm the one who put you up there
I don't know why, yeah
You don't have to say just what you did
I already know (I know)
I had to go and find out from them
So tell me how's it feel (oh-woah)
Tell me how's it feel sittin' up there
Feeling so high but too far away to hold me" Hyejin punches the mirror and it shatters. She picks up some pieces of the mirror and tries to put it together again. But fails.
"You know I'm the one who put you up there
Name in the sky
Does it ever get lonely?
Thinking you could live without me
Thinking you could live without me
Baby, I'm the one who put you up there
I don't know why (yeah, I don't know why)" Hyejin finishes the song as she falls to her knees. The broken mirror behind her, the woman laying next to her and the man turning his back on her.
She breathes im and out and she looks up with bloodshot eyes.
Irene looks at the younger girl with teary eyes as she hugs the crying yeri.
Wendy looks up to meet Hyejin's eyes and she smiles at her while clapping.
Jungkook sniffs as he wipes his tears. Yoongi and Seokjin smile and clap with teary eyes at the story Hyejin just told.
Namjoon stands up and claps as he lets a tear drop. He couldn't be prouder of his girlfriend for expressing her emotions on stage like that.
Yuqi wipes her tears off as Miyeon and Shuhua pat her back.
Jinyoung's eyes are wide with tears.
Everyone was moved by the beautiful story Hyejin just told and her brother and members couldn't be happier for her.
Song HyeKyo claps as she walked back on stage to announce the next category, although not before going up to hyejin and congratulating her on her amazing performance. Hye kyo cant help but start crying and hugging Hyejin while telling her how proud she is of hyejin.
Hyejin smiles and pats her back, "thank you so much for everything" Hyejin says as she hugs Hye kyo and starts clearing some of her tears off her cheek. "You have a show to conduct!" Hyejin says as she looks over to the pd that was currently telling the host to get ready.
"Wah, what an amazing & touching performance by Hyejin" Hye Kyo says
Hyejin goes to her dressing room and starts hugging everybody. Shes so happy that she finally got to showcase this performance! The other Red Velvet members walk in and starting piling onto her. "WE LOVE YOU HYEJIN" they yell out loud as some let their tears out. Hyejin smiles and past their back.
There was a knock at the door. Hyejin goes to open, she looks up and sees Namjoon and Seokjin, she looks behind them and see the rest of bangtan. They look at her and ingulf her in a huge group hug, that red velvet later join. She wouldn't ask for anything more. As she already has everything she needs, she looks around the room. Her members, BTS, TWICE, some other friends, what more could she want?
