Max's POVMy eyes focused on Sky as I watch him slowly grinding to their unsurprisingly large audience in comparison to other newer groups attending the festival. His face caters restricted emotion which I know he maybe reserving for their actual performance.The screams they were getting for a relatively smaller amount of people comparing to their usual audience makes me want to question their fans' vocal prowess.It's just a rehearsal for the festival but I don't have to check the actuals to know how more than half of the people watching are mostly their ever so dedicated fans.Of course, they are one of the hottest group nowadays - a recognition I know they deserve along with the other groups because hey, everybody just works really hard.A faint smile escaped my lips as I recognize the brand of clothes he was wearing."Show off..." I muttered to myself.He was there, face bare from any makeup but his face is the highest form of aesthetics any human being would wish to have yet he
Max's POVMy eyes were closed and my head hurt a little, all the things that had been happening lately is wrecking my brains into pieces and I'm not really that enthusiastic about it.Currently, we are on our way to our scheduled performance and nobody is actually speaking with each other. I knew for sure something had happened between Zanaya and Cali, I can't seem to find the right timing to ask about it.After that night where Cali snapped at Zanaya for being allowed to date, the dorm had been nothing but filled with tension.And our boss calling the three of us to his office doesn't really help either. The conversation I had with him still lingers in my mind."Is everything understood Max? You, of all four, should know the consequences. You trained the longest and you saw everything that had happened to those who didn't follow. This isn't a game. There are things that you need to sacrifice in order to be where you want yourselves to be."I slowly nodded at his words, the heaviness
Max's POV"Tokyo, open the door you lazy-ass," I chuckled as she made a tantrum while lying on the couch, the constant sound of the doorbell ringing starting to irritate me.I just came out of my room after taking a quick shower, unable to handle the stickiness of my body after doing some Yoga exercises."I have this weird feeling that those are the buttheads coming back. I saw them trend on Twitter when they arrived," Tokyo pouted. I raised an eyebrow at her.Tokyo is acting weird lately and I don't know why.Actually, a lot has been happening on this group and I feel like everything is a mess yet it isn't.With that in mind, I headed straight to the door and like what Tokyo predicted, SHADOW is indeed outside our dorms excluding Seth who's probably with Zanaya right at this moment.The moment I opened the door, Mono's face lightened, "I thought we're already banned here or something, he chuckled and my eyes caught Sky's who was hiding his smile by covering his mouth.Storm straight
Zanaya's POV"I'm sorry Grandpa, Dad...."I said as me and the girls tried to tidy up the place while my grandfather is sat on the couch with my father and Seth sitting beside him.I gulped at the scene before me.The whole SHADOW was standing in line as they look down, intimidated with my grandfather's presence.I won't blame them. My grandfather exudes charisma and power. He is indeed intimidating."So, Seth, how is your grandfather?" I heard my grandpa asked as I help Cali carry the trash to the kitchen."Hey, what's happening?" Max asked in a panic the moment all four of us were out of the other's sight."When did you get married to Seth?" Tokyo asked confused."Yeah, I think you forgot to mention something so important like that to us, Zanya" Cali crossed her arms.I tried to open my mouth to explain but my mind was off and I can't seem to think well right now.Knowing the fact that my grandfather was sitting in the living room with the boys is enough to make my mind go crazy.Whe
Max's POV"It's not fair. This isn't fair," I poured my heart out at the very person who had been the reason why I am always looking forward to those moments that I don't have any scheduled activity just so I can see him.His gazed burning with sincerest affection and concern, my heart almost leaping, butterflies almost running my intestines altogether.The moment I walked out after that emotional confrontation that I had with the apparently "wedded-couple", he immediately followed and I couldn't thank him any less.My hands were on my forehead as I try to grasp everything that had happened while his hands were gently rubbing my back with him standing here in front of me."Did you know?" I look up, worry visible in my eyes. I probably wouldn't be able to handle everything at this point and literally give up if I ever find out that he knows about it too and he allowed for me to be left in the dark.You wouldn't, right? You won’t do that to me too. I wanted to say but I stopped myself.
Max's POVBrushing a few strands of hair covering my face, I slowly turned to corner as I search for the room where my interview will be made.BP had set a guesting for me which I rarely do because I'm more comfortable in attending fashion shows that being in some reality tv guesting.People usually think I have a strong personality and can carry myself well but the truth is, being away with my members scares me too much.For me, every move that I will make might affect the whole group, every word that comes out of my mouth will be a reflection of the whole us, and that scares me.After calming down my nerves, I continue walking down the hallway on my own, my manager staying at the reception to fix something."It's fine Max, there's nothing to worry about..." I whispered to myself hoping it would be enough to gather every confidence that I can muster, the only hope that is left of me so I can move forward.A lot had happened with SHADOW and WHISTLE. There's SHADOW winning a prestigiou
Max's POV"So, you're telling me that your friends don’t know that you and my boyfie, wait?" his forehead creased while he pouted his lips as he breaks down every detail I just gave him, "Oh, right, that fucking hot and yummy hottie Sky of SHADOW slash still my boyfie is your guy? Bitch, you fucked my man?!" his voice had gone three pitches higher and I groan.I knew telling him this is not a very good idea but I still did since this had been bothering me too much."We're not fuck buddies, I hate you!" I told him before throwing a cushion which he elegantly swatted away out of his face. "And he's not yours too, okay, back off!" I snickered and he smiled at me amused. His legs crossed as he listens to my every word.He just came back from the US and went straight to the dorm. Aside from the girls, he's probably the only friend I have that is not an idol and out of this industry.Details aside, I trust him so much that I wasn't afraid to share him my deepest secrets which I can't seem t
Max's POV"I'm not hungry..." my hands reached for the covers of my bed as I try to hide from Zanaya, who, to my surprise had been the sweetest with me lately. Not that I am complaining but I feel like she's acting extra sweet and a weird bee had been buzzing behind my ears that some news is about to explode one of these days. It's crazy."It's not that you're not hungry. you just don't have an appetite which is understandable since you are sick. Regardless, I need you to eat so you can drink medicine or I swear I will ask Seth to bring Raze here. I'm sure you don't want to go around and scold you, do you?" she mumbled as I felt a gentle movement beside me.A grunt escaped my lips at what she said. Raze, he had been acting like a big brother even to WHISTLE and in all honesty, what Zanaya said isn't impossible. I can literally imagine Raze scolding me for not eating meals or drinking meds.With that in mind, I removed the blanket off and bolted up from my stupid attempt for a short sl
