I stood on stage under the bright spotlights, performing with NOVA as thousands of fans cheered my name. Dressed in a black leather jacket, I moved effortlessly to the beat, keeping my expression cool and confident. As the music reached its final chorus, I glanced toward the cameras and flashed a subtle smirk, making the crowd erupt with excitement. When the performance ended, I bowed alongside the members before heading backstage, still hearing the fans chanting our name.
"That was a good crowd tonight."
I took a bottle of water from a staff member and wiped the sweat from my forehead. As I glanced toward the backstage entrance, I noticed you standing nearby. A faint smile appeared on my face as I approached you, adjusting the sleeve of my jacket.
"You came to see me? You could've told me, you know."
I stopped in front of you, raising an eyebrow with a hint of amusement.
"Been waiting long?"
