After an hour.
Amaia slowly opens her eyes. She lets out an audible gasp when she saw her own reflection at the mirror.
"So, what do you think about your make-up? Do you like it?" Boss Lina asked, while looking proud of her work.
"Wow, is this really me?" Amaia unbelievably asked.
"Of course! I'm sure Nick Sorrento's jaw will fall halfway to the floor once he sees you!" Boss Lina reassures her.
"We can't be sure of that, Boss." Amaia said, while shrugging her shoulders.
“Oh, I almost forgot! As you can see, this is a micro camera, and you're going to put this on your chest to record Nick Sorrento's every move." Boss Lina explains, while holding a very small device on her hand, which is almost the same size as her thumb.
"B-But isn't this illegal, Boss? And what if Nick Sorrento found out about this?" Amaia's getting more nervous because of her undercover mission.
"Just act natural. Talk to him in a casual manner over a glass of champagne or wine. You just need to take a video or photo of him at his vulnerable moment." Boss Lina smilingly stated.
"I still don't think this is a good idea, Boss." Amaia suddenly hesitated.
"Now, listen to me closely, Amaia. Don't you dare chicken out! You have to survive this night!" Boss Lina encourages her.
"I'll do my best." Amaia forces herself to speak.
But deep inside, she's nervous as hell...
=======================
Later that evening.
Amaia finally arrives at Club Z.
Eventhough she feels that her whole body shaking because extreme nervousness, she still tried her best to act normal and confident, as she's making her way at the entrance door of Club Z.
"Here's my invitation." Amaia said, as she handed the red velvet envelope to the guards.
"You can go inside." the guards finally gave her permission to enter the club.
"Thanks." she replied, while secretly feeling relieved.
She can finally accomplish her mission! But she still have to be careful, or else she will lose her chance to get closer to Nick Sorrento...
She saw many people dancing on the dancefloor. Some were drinking at the bar. Some couples are flirting at each other, and some are making out at the corner!
"Oh, get a room!" Amaia whispered, while looking annoyed.
Amaia secretly switches on the hidden camera on her chest... Afterwards, she simply got herself a glass of champagne from the roaming waiter.
Her eyes roamed around from her target. Her attention suddenly focused on the VIP Room...
Nick's drumming his fingers on the table, as he looks obviously bored. He was just watching the people on the dancefloor.
He should be enjoying this party since it's their victory party. It's also their thanksgiving party for selling thousands of copies of their new album...
But he's still so damn bored.
"What’s wrong, Nick? Aren’t you enjoying the party? ” one of his group member, Jason asks him, while sipping wine.
"Maybe I'm just feeling a bit tired." Nick briefly responded.
“Why don't you come out and dance with many beautiful ladies out there?" Richard suggested, while dancing his feet to the beat of music.
"Nah, I'm not really in the mood tonight." Nick said in return.
"Hey, guys! Why are you staying here at the VIP Room? Why don't you go out there to the dancefloor?" the group's manager, Adam, suddenly approaches them.
"We'll pass..." Nick, Jason and Richard all answered in unison.
"Oh, wow! Look at that babe!" Adam sudden announced, while looking at a certain direction.
Meanwhile, Nick also looked at where Adam is looking, and his eyebrows met in a frown when he saw a woman standing all alone while drinking a glass of champagne...
Nick doesn’t know why, but his body acted or its own. He walked past Adam, and walked straight towards the woman.
"Wait, where is Nick going?" Jason curiously asked Adam.
"Isn't it obvious, guys? Nick is clearly attracted to that woman!" Adam replied, while grinning from ear to ear.
"Wow, what a surprise! Finally, he's becoming a man!" Richard chuckled.
"I'm sure Nick will have a great time tonight." Jason stated.
Adam raised his glass of wine for a toast.
"Let's have a toast, guys! This is for Adam who's going to have a wild night tonight!"
Jason and Richard smiling clinked their own glasses as well.
"Cheers to that!"
Meanwhile ...
At the Women’s Comfort Room.
Amaia was already crying in pain as she tries to remove the contact lens from her eyes.This is her first time putting on contact lenses, and she feels uncomfortable with it.
“Damn it, what am I going to do?" she wondered aloud, while feeling frustrated.
Her heart started beating fast when she heard someone closing the comfort room's door. She held her breath in suspense when she heard some footsteps... And it's obvious that it's coming her way.
"What happened to you?" she heard a man's smooth voice.
The stranger's voice was so soft, and she feels like melting. She gasped in surprise when she realized that she's talking to Nick Sorrento, her target for her undercover mission!
Amaia's train of thoughts suddenly stopped in a halt when her eyes started to sting again.
"Ouch!" she exclaimed.
At the same time, Nick quickly approaches the woman and stared at her face.
"Hey, are you alright? What's wrong with you?" he asks the stranger, while feeling worried about her.
"M-My eyes hurts so bad. It's because of my contacts." Amaia replied.
Her mind went into frenzy when she smelled Nick Sorrento's cologne...
"Just hold still." he whispered to her.
Amaia felt Nick's soft fingers on her face, and it sent an electrifying sensation all over her body...
"You can open your eyes now." she heard his gentle voice again.
She noticed that the pain in her eyes is almost gone.
"I don't know what you did, but thank you for your help." Amaia sincerely thanked Nick.
"Well, I won't take a simple thank you from you. Can we talk outside? I feel a bit uneasy talking with you inside the Women's Comfort Room." Nick suddenly asked her.
"Oh, right. Let's get out of here before someone sees you." Amaia nodded in agreement.
