Zanaya's POV   "You sure you're okay?" Max asked me while she feels my forehead.   We have a performance later in Serene Music but I'm not feeling really well.   But of course, I can't let this little cold and slight fever get in the way. We worked hard for this.   We're now promoting Full Circle Album.   "It's okay. I can do this." I cheered while looking at the three girls who's all staring at me worriedly.   We're now dressed in our performance outfit.   "Here, drink this." our manager gave me a medicine which I took and quickly drink.   "You're on in ten."   One of the producers came into our room to inform us so Iand the girls all stood up to get ready. Then, we went our way to the studio where we will be recording.   Once we arrive, we occupied the empty seats on the audience that are alotted for artists during rehearsals.   Then, a familiar sound echoed across the room.   I looked up and saw SHADOW performing.   I almost forgot. They are now promoting their new song which is a masterpiece.   I and the girls had watched the music video and it is definitely a work of art.   Soon enough, my eyes landed on Seth who's doing his opening part on Nirvana, their new song.   I gulped.   Isn't it illegal to look that hot and sexy? I mean, why does he need to show his skin like that?   That flirt.   Unknowingly, I started to get pissed off again.   Wait, why are you even bothered by it? It's not like he's really into a relationship with you. Plus, that's his job.   It must be the meds. I'm starting to think weirdly.   "Hey, look at our seniors. They really are amazing!" Tokyo dreamily exclaimed.   "I wish I can dance like them," California added.   "You dance really well, Cali," Max told her.   My eyes went back to the stage, particularly to Seth. I felt my whole world stopped when I saw him glanced in my direction.   It was brief but I thought I saw him smirk after his eyes landed back to the camera.   Fuck, did he saw me checking him out?   "Did you saw Seth senior smirk after looking at you?" Max asked me.   "I'm not sure. I wasn't looking."   Max's brow furrowed. '"Liar. You used to have a crush on him." she whispered.   My eyes went wide.   "I did not!" I told her as I hit her shoulders lightly.   She chuckled. "Whatever you say Zaya."   Then, the four of us stood up when their turn ended.   We're up.   While we walk up to the stage, SHADOW walked towards our direction to get back to their dressing room.   I bowed once our seniors walked past us. Before I can even climb the stairs to follow the girls, I felt Seth's hand slipped into mine and got me a little startled.   "Goodluck," he whispered not even looking.   I was about to move forward when I felt him pull me back a little.   I looked around and sigh in relief when I saw that no one was looking at us.   I looked at him and was about to hiss when he suddenly felt my forehead.   "You're hot. Are you sick?" he asked.   I was taken aback because he looked so worried like he really cared.   I pushed his hands off me afraid that someone might see us.   We can't afford to have a scandal right now.   "I'm fine. I need to go." then I bowed once more and took off to the stage.   "Hey, what took you so long?" California asked.   "Nothing, I just fixed my dress a little."   After a few minutes, we started doing our performance.   I am glad we're just sitting on our song "Move" because I was getting a little dizzy after we did "Fire in your Eyes".   Once we ended our performance, I can already feel the drops of sweat on my forehead so I walked a little faster so I can be out of stage.   "Hi, you were amazing there. I'm a fan!" I was caught off-guard when I saw Sky cheering for me.   I looked around and saw Mono and Seth behind him. Seth looked like he's so done with his groupmates.   I noticed that we were just outside their dressing room while ours is still on the farther side of the hallway.   If I wasn't really feeling unwell, I would probably fangirl in front of these guys.   Suddenly. The room felt like spinning, I had to grab the nearest chair beside me for support.   Before I even knew it, Seth had grabbed my arm. I looked up and saw him a little pissed but his eyes looked like he was worried.   "I knew it. You're sick." he muttered as if scolding me.   His left arm landed on my forehead and I swear I heard him curse.   ""Hey, Zanaya, are you okay?" Mono asked as I try to stand properly.   "Yes, Mono senior. I apologize for worrying you"   I tried to stand still while Seth's hands are still on my arms.   "I'll accompany you to your dressing room." he said firmly.   "No. I'm fine Seth senior," I said as I look at the other two who were just gawking at both of us,   "Where are your group mates?"   "They stayed a little to greet our fans," I said shyly as I play with hands.   "Stop being stubborn and let me go with you." he said as his hand landed on my back so we can move forward but after my third step, my knees gave up and my body almost crashed into the ground if not for Seth.   "Aissst." he muttered but I was caught off-guard when he suddenly lifted me up bridal-style.   "Hey, Seth!" I hear Mono.   "Senior, please put me down." I said in a panic.   People might see us like this.   "Cover your face," he said which I did.   Then he just walked towards our dressing room's direction.   I had to catch my breath because I can smell his perfume.   How does he smell this good after they danced really hard earlier?   My heart started beating so fast. I haven't been really close with him like this before.   "Hey, Sky, open the door." I heard Seth.   Then I felt my body landed on the soft couch.   I opened my eyes and saw Seth removing his jacket as he covers my legs. Right, I was wearing a skirt.   Then I saw Sky coming closer with a pillow on his hand before he gave it to Seth.   I tried to sit down but Seth hit me lightly on my arm.   "Don't sit. Here, lift your head a little." then, he put the pillow on my head.   "Thanks. seniors, I'm okay. You and Sky senior can go back. The girls will soon arrive."   "Don't worry about us Zanaya. I'm afraid Seth here would flip if we don't make sure you're fine." Sky said meaningfully as he looked at me and Seth.   I looked at Seth and saw him glaring at Sky.   "Please don't misunderstand, senior." my left hand landed on my lower lip, a habit I came to develop.   "Oh, you're so cute." I blushed as Sky flashed his rectangular smile.   I laughed a little when he looked away once Seth glared at him.   Unintentionally, a yawn escaped my lips. It maybe because of the medicines that I took earlier.   "Stop flirting with each other. Try to get some sleep. I'll stay here until your girls arrive." I closed my eyes unable to handle the drowsiness that is eating me. "Hmmm,.." A groan escaped on my lips when I felt someone brushing my hair with his hands.   It feels so comforting, soothing. And it makes me wanna go to sleep.   Soon enough, I was off to the dreamland but before the darkness eats me, I heard a soothing voice whispered on my ear.   "Sleep, tight princess..."
