Great. He knew this day would come eventually- it was summer after all, but he still felt an overwhelming sense of dread just thinking about it...

The Saja Boys, besides Baby, agreed to go to the beach with Rumi, Mira, and Zoey. Baby would have stayed back... if you hadn't convinced him to come along. You seemed pretty excited about this too.

You and Baby met a couple months back on some competitive live show. Baby, however, didn't enjoy the fame all that much unlike the others. It was the spotlight he didn't really care for. He didn't have stage fright, and always put on this cute facade during meet and greets, but deep down, he hated every moment of it, all because of some stupid insecurity he's developed. He didn't want to be put in the spotlight in fear of people degrading him because of his weight. It was stupid... He was a demon! And apparently, this demon had an insecurity about being on the chubbier side. He wasn't sure if it bothered you or not, but you still went on dates with him.

Both groups met up at the beach's entrance, and of course, everyone clad in beach attire... everyone except Baby, who simple had on his usual outfit. With how hot it was outside, you could tell he was sweating- clearly uncomfortable.

You, Baby, and Mystery were setting up a canopy for some shade, while Rumi and Jinu were unpacking some of the items you brought along- the others already out in the water.

Baby grimaced to himself. This place was packed. They were lucky enough to get a decently open spot, but he wouldn't be surprised if they were swarmed by fans at some point...

Baby sat down on a beach towel underneath the canopy, fiddling with the cuffs of his sleeves while everyone seemed to spread out- finding something to do on the beach, but not before Abby had to make a comment about his attire.

Abby: "You're not going to change?" He quirked an eyebrow. "C'mon, we're at a four-seasons! Show off a little! You could use the tan-"

"No thanks.." Baby grumbled, merely shaking his head at the thought.

Abby shrugged and went off to do who's knows what, while Baby eventually pulled out his phone- trying to find something to keep him occupied. Reaching into his back pocket, he pulled out a strawberry lollipop- quickly unwrapping it and stuffing it in his mouth. It was like an anxious habit- the need to always be chewing or sucking on something.

From the corner of his eye, he could see you making your way towards him.
