28 - Concert & Movie
The arena was packed, and all the fans were in high spirits as they waited for the concert to start. When the lights from the stage go off, there was a deafening sound of screams until the music starts playing and the dancers appear on the stage. Yoongi emerges through the stage lift, wearing a dark blue jacket, from the company he is endorsing, over his black shirt. He starts rapping and you see a different side of him, Agust D in the flesh, giving everything he's got as the crowd cheers and dances, his charisma oozing out of him. His eyes had the spark which showed his passion for his craft. Seeing his videos online is nothing compared to seeing him in person, you've got goosebumps and you just want to cry because he is so damn good.
A different level of admiration flows out of you as you watch him. People sang along and danced to the upbeat song he performed. When he paused for a break, he walks closer to where you were and starts talking. You can see the beads of sweat that roll at the side of his face and neck, which he gently dabs with a towel. After you finish your job translating for him, he continues with his performance.
You were backstage when he went for a fifteen-minute break. He was drenched in sweat, and he takes deep breaths as Kyung-Mi, Hyeri and Yeo-Jin follows him. He had changed from his shirt and jacket to a white long-sleeved shirt that had a logo at the back. The very same shirt Kyung-Mi had been talking about earlier. That shirt is now plastered to his body from his sweat, his tattoo in full display. He still has it and you had to look away, too conscious of the fact that it's your initials on his chest. The filming team is documenting everything, so you're pretty sure many people will see, unless they cut that part out. His eyes meet yours and he gives you a small smile before he steps inside his dressing room. You can't help feeling worried about him, wondering if he can still do another forty-five minutes of all that again. You've seen the dance moves he had to do not to mention singing and rapping while walking around the huge stage. It's no joke at all.
When he comes back on the stage, later on, a new energy comes out of him as he performs 'Crushed'. He didn't have to say it, but you know this song was made for you. Every line speaks to you and you can feel the turmoil he also has gone through. It's good to you were not the only one who suffered because of your separation. Now he wants you back, you got reminded of his words earlier. It's not fair for Dylan, you told yourself because he didn't do anything wrong. You are committed to him, and you can't just change your mind because of Yoongi, you feel torn.
When the performance with Kitty came up, the crowd got louder. You're not bothered by their hot dance together although Kitty dared to grab Yoongi's hand to touch her body rather than what they've rehearsed where he keeps it a distance away. Yoongi didn't show any sign of surprise as he continued with their performance.
It was the third to the last song, so you decide to head backstage since David had asked you to be ready because they were expecting people to come and speak with Yoongi after. You caught Kitty still backstage getting her pictures taken.
"That number is so damned hot I think I creamed my panties." She giggles as she walks towards her dressing room.
You wanted to retch after hearing it, you don't know why. You have to admit that Yoongi on the stage is hot. His sex appeal just flows, you felt it get to you whether you'd like to admit it or not. It brought you back to the first time you met him, you were drawn to him so bad while he was performing on stage, you were the one who dared to make the first move on him. You were so rash about things back then, what were you thinking? You asked yourself. Dylan always pointed that he didn't like your boldness. He wants you to be demure, shy, and timid kind, including in bed. You feel that he is right, that sometimes you act on instinct without giving much thought and you suffer its consequences later on.
You watch the remaining part of the concert through the lounge monitor as you waited. Yoongi enters his dressing room looking ecstatic as he speaks to the camera, bowing and greeting those who were congratulating him for the success of his first leg in his U.S tour. David arrives minutes later with a popular actress and her boyfriend; he introduces you and you greet them. They are not very friendly, and you ignore them. You're used to this; it comes with your job.
Yoongi walks into the lounge and greets the couple, they congratulate him, and they talk briefly until a rich-looking man that seems to be in his fifties comes in with two teen-aged girls. The couple knows him, and they greet each other briefly before the previous guests left. This man owns the record label that distributes Agust D's music in North America. He gives you a warm smile before he starts speaking to David and Yoongi. Then he introduces his daughters, and they shove their phones at you so you can take their pictures.
"I'm so sorry for that, the girls are just too excited to finally meet him." He tells you and you smile in return, he is very nice. They come in extremes. Rich and famous people can either be very down to earth and nice, to snobs and arrogant.
More celebrities came... models, influencers, singers, actors, and actresses. You can't help thinking how lucky these people were to have a chance like this. His other fans settle for photos and videos taken from a distance at the concert and yet get the time of their life from it.
David tells Yoongi they were leaving as soon as the last person to greet him left. You say goodbye to Kyoung-Mi and the rest of the staff since you'd be driving home. Kylee already had your bag which you brought for today. She's hitching a ride from you since she took an Uber going here earlier.
You grabbed a late dinner in a nearby fast-food and Kylee gushes about how she enjoyed Yoongi's concert. You smile as you listen to her because everything she's been saying you can relate to.
You get home and you soak in a hot bath to relax your tired muscles. It's been a long day of walking and standing so you deserve this moment. Dylan calls you just as you were enjoying the warm water.
"Hey, babe." He tells you. "Wow, that looks fun. Too bad I'm not there to share the tub with you."
You chuckle. "Well, I can always fly there for a few days since my schedule is vacant for the next three days. I can catch up with the group when they get to San Francisco." You reply.
"Three days is not a long time since your travel time will take up the hours too. Let's stick with our original plan of meeting after New York. I do miss you so much." Dylan said. "It's a bit late here already but I just wanted to check if everything went well in the concert. It's a trending topic on almost every social media."
"I can imagine. You should've seen the celebrities that came backstage to have their pictures taken with them."
"Matt told me. He was there to make a write-up about it. He said he saw you, but you were a bit far from where he was." Dylan smiles at you. "I love seeing you like this, cheeks and lips pink, your face glowing."
You lift an eyebrow as the naughty side of you gets triggered. "Just say the word babe and I am more than willing to show you other parts of me that are pink." You giggle as you adjust yourself in the water.
Dylan laughs. "You and your quirky ways. Let's save that for next time. I am quite drowsy too. I took my allergy meds because it got triggered when I went to the park earlier."
Your face looks at him with concern. "I hope it's nothing serious."
He smiles at you. "I'll be fine in the morning, seeing you already made me feel better actually. I really got to go. I love you."
"I love you too, bye."
He hangs up and you settle back in the tub. You feel happy after talking with Dylan, but Yoongi's face lingers in your thoughts too.
Your phone rings again, as if he read your mind, Yoongi calls you.
"Hey, where's your camera?" He asks you as soon as you answered.
You sigh as you shifted your position in the tub making the water splash. "I can't turn it on, I'm in the tub."
"I heard the water." He was silent for a moment, and you hear him curse softly.
"Anything wrong?" You ask.
His voice was a bit raspy when he answers. "The image of you in the tub just flashed in my head."
He is being honest with you, too honest, you can't help but think. It made you shift at the tub again. "So, uh, why are you calling me right now? Aren't you supposed to be taking a rest? It was a very tiring day for you, I'm sure."
"That's the thing, after a concert, my adrenaline keeps me up after it reached its peak and it takes a while to subside. Usually, I drink to relax, but I don't want to do it right now." He explains. "I was just wondering if we can go out and watch a movie. I missed the chance to see this movie, and this is perfect timing. I googled that there's a movie theater not too far from your house. The last showing is in forty minutes. How about it?"
You sit up from the tub making the water splash louder. "You want to watch a movie, right now, with me?"
He laughs at the tone of your voice. "That's what I just said. Relax, don't worry about it. I'm not going to do anything to you without your permission. I don't get to do this often and it's late so there might not be a lot of people around anymore."
Your mind was in a jumble as you contemplate your answer.
It's a weekend so there were people who's still up even though it's late at night. You're glad that no one recognized Yoongi. He had a hoodie on which stayed up over his head as you enter the movie theater. Because it's on its third week, the place isn't packed. Sungha dropped him off at your place and will wait for him at the hotel when he comes back. You don't know what Yoongi did to make him agree to this decision of his.
You two looked like a typical couple who's out to watch a movie late at night. You didn't plan it, but it looks like you're wearing identical sets of sweatpants and sweater. You didn't bother to put make up since it's late anyway and you don't want to look like this is a special date or something.
