(Reader’s POV)
So today’s finally the day, huh? I get to perform live in front of all of my favorite idols! My hairstylist curls and dyes the ends of my hair (F/C) while my makeup artist applies my eyeliner, drawing each wing on perfectly. “Now, I know today is really important and exciting for you, but could you please keep still while I have something close to your eye?” My makeup unnie asks with an impatient tone.
“Joesonghabnida, unnie.” I respond to her. In a few hours, I’m performing live in front of millions of people at the Mnet Asian Music Awards. Among those millions of people happen to be my most favorite groups such as EXO, BTS, Twice, and BlackPink. When my makeup unnie and hairstylist finally finish, they both turn me around so that I can see my reflection in the mirror. My features are more defined with the eyeliner, bronzer, and lip liner that my unnie used. My hair, on the other hand, contradicts my makeup, looking more delicate than fierce. It’s perfect.
“Knock ‘em dead, (Y/N)-ah.”
“Yeah, show them how it’s done!” My hairstylist pats me on the back and gives me a reassuring smile. “You’re going to do great.”
“Thank you, unnies. Now, I better be off.” I say, standing up from my seat and exiting the room. Despite feeling more confident than ever, I can still feel the nerves coursing through my veins. Strange how some things work.
“Miss (S/N), please follow me.” A security guard says as he approaches me. He takes me back towards a dark area that is illuminated only by the faint glow of the tv that’s in the corner. A black curtain hangs in the front of the area, which I assume blocks me from both the stage and the eyes of everyone in the crowd. “Please stay here until your name is called. It should be about twenty minutes before you are to perform. Oh, and while you’re here and waiting, your manager wanted you to meet a few fans.”
“Okay, I will. Thank you.” I bow deeply to him. Once he leaves, I let out a long exhale, trying to get rid of all of the nerves welled up inside of my body. I close my eyes and take two more deep breaths. Deep breath in, deep breath out, deep breath in–
“Is that (S/N) over there?” I hear a voice ask.
“Oh my gosh, I think that is!” Another voice. How many are there? I open my eyes and look over to my right. I can’t tell who it is because of how dark it is, but I presume that it’s a boy and a girl based off of their voices. “She’s looking over at us. What do we do?”
“Hello? Come out to where I can see you please.” I call out to them. I see four figures step out from the shadows, two girls and two boys. “Oh, hi there! ? It’s nice to meet you. You must be the fans with the backstage passes, right? My name’s–”
“(Y/N). Stage name’s (S/N). It’s a pleasure to meet you. All four of us are incredibly huge fans of yours, and we love everything that you do!” A tall boy with two toned hair says. “My name’s Matthew.”
“Hi, I’m Somin. It’s so nice to meet you!” A pretty girl with blonde hair walks up to me and bows down in front of me.
“There’s no need to be so formal with me. Please, just treat me like you would with your friends.” I tell them. They’re being so polite with me. I know I’ve been in the entertainment business for six months, but it still feels weird to have people bow in front of me. Usually, I’m the one bowing down in front of them.
“My name’s Jiwoo and this is TaeHyung.” A girl with dirty blonde hair gestures towards a boy with dirty blonde hair.
“Well, it’s nice to meet all of you, and thank you so much for supporting me! It means a lot to me. I know a lot of idols say this all the time, but it’s true. I wouldn’t be here today if it weren’t for you guys!” I flash them all the best smile I can manage right now. I’m still incredibly anxious about this upcoming performance. I hope I do well.
“Of course! You’re so talented and beautiful. How could we not?” Matthew says with a charming smile. I look over at TaeHyung. These two boys are really attractive. The girls are quite stunning as well!
“Thank you.” A faint blush appears on my face.
“Y-you’re really pretty.” TaeHyung finally says. These compliments mixed in with all of my nerves… I feel like I’m going to burst.
Before I’m able to say anything, a loud voice says over the intercom, “the next performer is a young girl who debuted half a year ago. She’s been climbing the ranks rather quickly, and she’s caught the attention of some of the biggest names in kpop history. From dongsaeng to unnie, make some noise for (S/N)!” The crowd erupts into applause. I hear some people chanting my name over and over again while others are screaming as loud as they can. I let out another exhale. This is it.
“Good luck, unnie!” I hear a voice tell me. Looking over, I see Jiwoo smile at me with an encouraging performance.
“We know you can do it.” TaeHyung says.
“Yeah, you’re the best!” Somin looks at me with an award winning smile.
“Everyone knows how much of an awesome performer you are, so go out there and show them who’s boss! Don’t be nervous, just calm down and enjoy yourself out there, okay?” Now Matthew’s smiling down at me.
I let out a small laugh and nod at them. “Thank you, guys.” The curtain slowly starts to lift, revealing me to everyone in the crowd. I can hear the screams get louder the higher the curtain rises. I slowly start to walk further out on stage.
“Hey, and after all of this is over, do you think we can all hang out sometime?” I hear Somin call out after me.
I shoot the four of them a thumbs up while fixing my headset.
“You bet.”

I apologize for the late upload, but I hope the wait was worth it! Up next is either a Yuju scenario or a smutty Jeongyeon scenario. Whichever one I finish first. The Jeongyeon is taking quite awhile to write, so to the anon who requested that scenario: I’m very sorry!
