Synn's POV
"Hey..."
I turned a little when I heard someone greeting me from behind, a smile automatically forming on my lips.
"Stephen senior..." I greeted back and he just chuckled.
"Isn't it weird that you call me senior when I have to call you older sister in return?" he asked and I returned the high-five he was offering.
It's been what? I'm not even sure how long but I don't remember the last time I talked with him. Both of our groups have been busy. And they fucking win a Song of the Year Award. I called for it.
In all honesty, I thought MILLION seniors will win SOTY last year. Like, Really, Really was the bomb. We have it blasting in our dorm the whole time.
"You got called too?" I asked him and he chuckled.
"And you just got out of the office, right? What did you do?" he teased and I raised an eyebrow at him.
"You're one to talk when you're about to go inside hellhole in five minutes, huh?"
A cheeky grin appeared on his lips. He may look mischievous but I was pretty sure he was nervous too. Like any BP artist or perhaps any other artist out there, we don't want to cause something that will bring trouble to our group, and that's exactly what this is all about.
Our boss recently found out that PERSONA had been visiting our dorm and that I am in a relationship with Gold.
Imagine how nervous I was. The last time he called me was about the jacket incident and basically, the same person was involved, Gold Simons.
He didn't speak. He let me explain myself and gave me the freedom to say whatever I want.
Contrary to what most people thinks, our boss may have a length of lists of things we're not allowed to do but we're still given the freedom to decide. As long as we are able to justify our actions and take responsibility for it.
Sure we'll get quite a scolding but we know when we have to talk for ourselves and when to accept our mistakes. The last time I was called, I wasn't scolded that much but the staff, however this time, it's on me.
So I asked for the company's permission. Our boss is known not to meddle with his artist's love life unless needed. That's particularly true with our seniors. How many dating news has our BLUE seniors have had before but no articles came out as a statement from the company. It was because us artists were given freedom. It's our private life. If we tell them we'll talk, that's the time they give out statements.
I wasn't really sure what our boss thinks about our relationship.
"You okay back there?"
I was startled when I heard the manager's voice. He was in charge of me today and after bidding goodbye to Stephen earlier, I went straight to the van so I can go home. Coming in to the seventh floor was never a good thing.
It always gives me chills and that feeling of being of discomfort bothers me like a magnet.
"Yes, Manager. Sorry to bother you..."
I same him smile at the mirror and I simply directed my gaze outside of the car.
It's past midnight and there aren't much people outside.
You can even get called outside daylight hours.
Coz that's the nature of job I have.
In no time, I was already punching in the password in our dorm.
Just after I was able to remove my shoes, I heard Elisse's laughter echoing inside the room, my brows furrowed.
I didn't know they were still awake. But I was out for roughly three hours so it's possible.
"Well I'm glad to have provided you an entertainment Miss Robin," Demo was sprawled on the floor as Elisse was still laughing her ass off. Not even sure what made her laugh.
On the other corner were Snow and Mono sitting beside each other both reading some books. I shake my head in amusement. They weren't talking but I can clearly feel the tension. It's quite funny actually.
Chase and Eros were watching something while Zero was sleeping on the couch. From where I was standing, I can hear Arika in the kitchen with Raze. They were discussing something about pancakes, of all the topics they can have.
But above all the commotions, my eyes can't seem to locate that one little bunny cupcake of mine.
As Elisse finally took notice of my presence, a worried expression automatically enveloped her face.
"Hey, everything good?" she asked and even Demo turned to my direction. The others also turned to my direction.
A smile tucked at the corners of my lips.
"What did he said?" Chase curiously asked.
I stare at them and I thought how lucky I am to have these people, a relief sigh coming out of my lips.
"Don't get caught," I told them and Eros lips parted.
I laughed at how shocked they looked.
"That's it?" Demo exclaimed and I nodded.
"Where's Gold?" I asked, my eyes still trying to search any sign that he's within the parameter.
"He went to your room, probably fell asleep. He had an extra schedule for the day so he had barely slept," Demo answered. After bidding goodbye, I went straight to my room and there I saw him, sleeping soundly on my bed, my huge blanket covering his buddy.
Adorable.
Giggling, I reached for my phone and snap a couple of photos. He looked so adorable sleeping like that when my blanket has bunny prints too. Plus, his forehead is showing. If only I could show these photos with his fans but I knew better.
Slowly, I walked closer to him and carefully sat on the edge of my bed.
He looked so exhausted, and it was as if my hands were being pulled like a magnet and I started brushing the locks of hair covering his face.
He must have been worried about the entire PERSONA to visit the dorm. Prior to coming into the office, I told him about me being called on the seventh floor. It was sweet of him to offer and come with me but I declined. It was something I need to do on my end.
It's been months since we've started officially dating and I can say he's the best boyfriend I can ever ask for.
He'd make sure to either video call or message me the moment he wakes up and does the same before he sleeps. I told him it's not necessary and that he makes sure to be careful with his phone since his fans have eagle eyes.
He's visited me when he's free and makes sure to send me videos of places he went to. All in all, I knew Gold's everyday life activities.
He's just perfect.
Slowly, my hands started tracing every feature of his face.
How did I get so lucky?
"I love you..." I whispered, a smile still showing on my lips.
Even with him sleeping, I can still feel my heart hammering inside my chest. That's what he does to me. He keeps me afloat. He makes me feel thousands of emotion and it excites me. He's one of the reasons I look forward to my next days.
I leaned forward and kissed him on the forward before fixing the blanket covering him. He needs rest. I knew how much they needed to sleep.
Just then, my attention was caught by the sound of his phone beeping. It was resting at the top of my side table. The volume was relatively low but it's continuous vibrating bothers me a little.
"Goldie might wake up," I whispered out of concern.
The moment I took a glance at his phone, I felt my blood getting drained out of my body, the loud beating of my chest now of different reasons.
It was as if my body is getting numb but I felt it, the fast pulse inside me and that feeling of uneasiness.
I gulp.
Sef calling...
I'm no dumb. I know who could that be.
My intention earlier went down the drain and I was unsure of what to do. This moment, my mind was clouded with questions.
Were they still communicating?
Gold never told me about it.
I watch as the call ended. My eyes darted to Gold's sleeping form.
Was he cheating on me?
My eyes immediately turned sideways as I saw his phone blink once again. This time, a message came right in and due to his phone's settings, I was able to take a glimpse a part of the message.
"Sorry I fell asleep. And thanks for last time. So, I'll see you again on Monday?"
Again...
Fuck.
My knees wobble, my heart feels like literally will be jumping out of my chest. My lips quiver as my eyes started to get moist.
I wanted to wake him up and ask him what's happening. Was he playing on me?
So, he's seeing her? Since when?
Slowly, my knees gave in and I sat on the surface, my eyes still fixed on him.
A tear fell on my cheek, my hands covered my lips as I try not to cry. I don't want to wake him up. I don't want him to see how broken I am right now.
God damn it.
Gold Simons, you aren't perfect after all.
