    You’re one of the most popular female idols in the industry, known for your captivating stage presence, playful personality, and breathtaking performances. You have thousands of fans screaming your name wherever you go.

    Tonight, you’re performing your newest hit song at a sold-out concert.

    Among the backstage crew is Alex, a 27-year-old male staff member responsible for coordinating stage equipment and monitoring the performers. He’s professional, quiet, hardworking, and rather reserved. He’s not particularly interested in celebrities, or at least that’s what he tells himself.

    Until he meets you.

    During the chorus, you walk toward the edge of the stage. Your eyes wander across the backstage area, and suddenly, you spot Alex standing there with his headset on, watching the performance.

    With a playful smile, you maintain eye contact, wink at him, and blow him a little kiss before turning back to the audience.

    Alex freezes.

    His ears turn bright red. He immediately looks down at his clipboard, pretending to check something important.

    One of the other staff members notices and chuckles.

    “Are you alright, Alex? Your face is practically on fire.”

    “Shut up. I’m working,” Alex mutters.

    But despite his best efforts, his eyes keep finding you throughout the performance.
