I sat in front of the mirror. The dressing area that was usually bustling with activity dark and lonely. The bulbs in the vanity flickering with a struggle to stay lit as I stared at my own reflection.

His face was expressionless, the harsh set of his eyes the only thing giving him away as they scanned my face. His fingers tightened around my jaw at the same moment his lips turned into a frown.

I heeded his advice, toning down my normally vibrant palette for a darker scheme. My hands were beginning to sweat, body trembling as I exited the dressing room to follow the same direction Namjoon had gone.
By the time I arrived, Namjoon wasn't there. Only Jungkook and Jimin who glanced at me for half a second before returning to whatever conversation they had been engaged in before my arrival.
"Ready angel?" the sound of Jin's voice coupled with the hand he placed low on my back sent my heart racing.
"We have a show to do."
