LUNA

--

The session we scheduled ended after both Ace and I returned to the building, Heid and I danced after since I did promise him a dance. After the session finished, we went inside the van our company provided us. Still flustered, I looked at the window next to me looking at the beautiful scenery Madrid had. 

We went reached the hotel building and decided to eat our dinner together before going to rest for the evening since we had training tomorrow. We reached the foodservice below our hotel rooms, it was designed with elegant and classic curtains and colors, famous painting covered the walls while classical music played.

Foods were served in buffet style with some were prepared for them to cook in front of us. Cocktails and alcoholic beverages were also provided given that you will ask for them to serve you. 

"Come on Luna, let's get some food" Avian shouted while grabbing both Andrea and I's arms, we both were flustered as the other guests looked at Via who disrupted their quiet dining.

I grabbed the plates while Andrea was getting dragged by Via who was enthusiastically looking at the foods prepared.

"Here" I gave both of them the plates that I took

"How were both of your dances earlier?" Andrea asked

"It was fine, Damian actually knew how to dance" Avian giggled

"Likewise, it was fine" I spoke

"I saw Ace and you sneaking out" Avian spoke as she giggled

"No, we did not" I denied so fast and loud that the other guests stared at us once more making me flustered

"Fine fine" Avian spoke while giggling with Andrea

We ate dinner that we got from the buffet along with the boys. After that, we all went to our designated rooms, I, of course, went with the girls. We talked about recent dramas while walking to go to our room. We got dressed up and we all tried to sleep.

Avian and Andrea had been asleep for the next 5 hours, while I couldn't. It was already 2:00 AM and since I couldn't sleep I figured why not create songs.

I stopped at the Hotel's cafe, grabbed some coffee, and set up my things. I tried to write some songs but ended up crumpling the draft that I've already made, making me frustrated.

Since I couldn't draw up any inspiration I decided to go to the hotel's lobby instead but before I could gather my things somebody tapped me by the shoulder, I looked as I saw Damian waving at me.

"So Laiyllah what's going on between you and Arian?" He asked not even being blunt about it

Damian was different from others he was very open and very forward unlike the others, but he was very positive and friendly as well

"Nothing I swear, why does everybody keep asking me about him?" I asked still confused as to why I'm always associated with his name I mean I'm Laiyllah, not Ace or Arian

"Well considering you're the only girl he had spent time with, and you're the only girl who he looked at that way after her." He answered but what piqued my interest was the word 'her'

"Who's 'her'?" I asked curiously as to who he was referring to

"Oh, no one" He answered flustered as to why he slipped that information.

After Damian went back to his room I followed my initial plan and went to the lobby thinking of how I could draw information for a song, I sat there until someone tapped my shoulder once again

"Luna" A deep and familiar voice spoke

"Ace" I looked over at him curious as to why he's here and then I remembered about 'her'

"What're you doing?"

"I was writing a song for us to present tomorrow" I answered while focusing on writing before he snatched the paper

"I'm a born singer a little belated confession (I swear) The mirage that always seemed so far away is now before my eyes (It's here) I'm a BORN SINGER perhaps an early confession but I'm happy, I'm good~" He sang the lyrics.

His voice different from his voice when he talks was a little more high pitched, it was perfectly mixed in with the lyrics, the way all the words rolled smoothly out of his tongue

"Still daydreaming Luna?" He asked and I have completely snapped away from my thoughts, I rolled my eyes and moved for him to have a place to seat.

"How 'bout you help me in writing instead?" I asked and he nodded

He looked so peaceful but serious at the same time, the strands of hair falling as he was reading the lyrics, the way he plays with his pen in between his fingers while thinking of things to write.

We spent the whole night thinking about song lyrics and him singing it, he had this light in his eyes that I've never seen before while he was singing, you could see his passion in his eyes and voice whenever you mention music or when he sings.

After finishing our songs, Ace decided for us to take a stroll and look at the scenery one last time before going to work, we decided to go back to the garden where we slept last night, this time we decided just to seat on a bench

The moons still as beautiful as it was before isn't it?" He asked

"It is" I answered still capturing the beauty and magnificence of the moon

"It's exactly like you Luna no matter how hard you deny it," He said sincerely

"How can it be? I'm nothing like it"

"No matter how hard you try to deny it, Luna, you're just like the moon, you're beauty is illuminating and hypnotizing yet you're still strong and smart, never underestimate yourself Luna you're much more than that," He said staring at my dark brown orbs, I was taken aback by his answer so instinctively I looked away and looked back at the moon and let time pass by.

Author's note :

I didn't put much effort into this chapter since I had written over 4 chapters but at least it was longer now. I could now see the chemistry between the two and can't wait to develop it more. Hasta la proxima vez :))
