F(x), SHINee, and five SNSD members were brought to the stage to sit on the sides while Kang Hodong was adjusting his microphone. The sitting line up was pre-made, but luckily Luna was able to sit between Onew and Amber on the first row.

She wanted to look great for the camera with her new hair, yet hide her bruises and cuts, so she wore her hair slightly curled, with a cute graphic tank top and a jacket on top. She decided last moment to wear a skirt with tights, black heels completing the look. The rest of the f(x) girls had somewhat street but cute clothing. Amber even had a cute designed button up shirt with some skinny jeans. She decided to wear some black Nike’s to pair with the shirt. Sulli had a frilly skirt and tight T-shirt; some big sneakers were added, to show some difference from the femininity and street wear. Victoria had some skinny jeans on, but a more blouse-like top, red and nicely tailored. Her heels were high enough to be as tall as Minho. Krystal had a dark tank top on with a light jacket on time; she had acid wash jeans and some heels.

SNSD’s Yoona, Tiffany, Sooyoung, Yuri, and Jessica all had white matching outfits to promote their new hit Run Devil Run. They looked y and fresh with some white skinny jeans and a white zipped up tops, showing a little bit of their hips. The difference between them was actually their shoes. Jessica had white and black heels while Yoona had heels, Tiffany had silver and black, Sooyoung had sparkly wedges, and Yuri had black wedges. Luna was worried their beauty would steal all of the attention, but shrugged it off, knowing they always look great. “Yah, it’s okay Luna… Whatever,” she thought in her mind, trying to accept it.

SHINee all wore dark clothing, with brand new haircuts. Onew had more of a light brown hair color, due to their new hit, Lucifer. They all dressed pretty y for the day, Luna especially liked this, but secretly. Key had his mohawk with a bit of pink hair color at the bottom to show some cuteness, but wore some dark skinny jeans with a metallic vest, revealing a sparkly T-shirt underneath. He paired this outfit with some nice black Nike’s. Jonghyun also had a metallic shirt, but with the sleeves very short, almost cut off. He had some lighter skinny jeans and dark combat boots, halfway up his calf. His hair was styled to look spiky and messy. Taemin had some dark red skinny jeans, but unlike their Lucifer music video hair, he just had long, shaggy hair. His shirt was black, and over it was a metallic, dark jacket. They even added some dark eye shadow to show off some double eyelid. Minho had his hair cut short enough to spike slightly, and wore a sheer, fishnet loose shirt to show off his muscles, with a gray tank top underneath. Luna couldn’t help but enjoy how well Minho looked, but she would never show it. Onew, the best looking of them all, had some white jeans as well, but with a black loose sweater and some jewelry. He also had black combat boots to contrast with his light jeans. His brown hair was long but slicked back to show his handsome face.

 It was planned for them to perform some of their new song toward the middle of the show and talk about it. Unfortunately, Star King’s writers also wanted to join in some conversation about Luna’s attack yesterday, but to a subtle mention. They did not want it to upset her, but the fans “should know about it.”

The show was about to start in ten minutes, making Luna a bit nervous. She clinged on to Amber while chatting about the set as Onew and the rest of SHINee were getting their microphones placed on. As SHINee sat down to get ready, f(x) was called next for their microphones. Onew sat down as Luna stood up, smiling at him. He watched her walk away, her legs showing off because of the skirt. He thought to himself, “Luna-shi, wear more skirts please…” but quickly stopped his thoughts, trying to control himself. Minho, sitting next to Onew, noticed his staring.

“Yah, hyung, stop being a ert.” He whispered, nudging him. Onew shook his head and smiled.

“I was not looking,” he denied. Minho rolled his eyes and nodded. Onew couldn’t help but be a boy. I boy who wanted something from a girl he cared for greatly, but not sure of what that thing is. Onew shook his head, denying his thoughts once more. He needed to stop. He pretended to fix his hair while shaking his head, so no one was suspicious of Onew thinking to himself obnoxiously. F(x) was finally done, being the last to fix their microphones, so the show was about it begin. Luna walked back to Onew, not allowed to talk much to the others. The idols all bowed to each other, smiling and excited to see their close friends. Luna sat down and glanced at Onew, looking off into the distance. He must be thinking of his performance, she thought. Boy, was Luna innocent.

Music began to play as the audience clapped. Hodong talked about what was going to happen in the show, and introducing each SM artist.

“Now, today… is very interesting. Today, we are going to be having some performances from SM idols as well as some very, VERY interesting people!” The crowd cheered. “Now, let’s start with a performance from a very adorable girl, she is only five years old, but very talented...”

Time had passed and four performances were already done, all being exciting, scary, and cute. “Now, let’s talk about something for a moment…” Hodong began. He looked at Luna. “Park Luna!” She was shocked by his announcement, but said hello and bowed. “Something very sudden happened to her yesterday afternoon.”

“Yes.” She responded calmly.

“A young man named Lee Bae had tried to attack our Park Luna, she was brought to the hospital immediately.” The audience sounded serious and gasped. Luna nodded without a smile, looking slightly down.

“Now, Luna, how was it in the hospital? Are you okay now?”

“Yes, I’m fine now. I just have some bruises and scratches.”

“Ah, ah, yes… Did you get my flowers?” The audience laughed and she smiled.

“Well, some friends did get me a lot of flowers, it was very nice of them.” SHINee and SNSD smiled at her, knowing she was talking about them.

“I got her a big bouquet myself, actually,” Onew joined in with a smile. The audience ooh’ed and Hodong looked shocked.

“You got her flowers yourself? Mr. Romance? Are you trying to seduce Luna?”

Onew smiled and shook his head, Luna covered her face, laughing. It was so embarrassing. The audience laughed and cheered at his reaction.

“Anyways, speaking on Onew… let’s have SHINee come up and perform their new single, LUCIFER!” The audience screamed as the boys stood up and centered themselves toward the stage. Their music came in as the boys performed-

Even if I try to avoid you,

I can’t find a place to hide,

I’m trapped by you,

Who I can’t even deny

The boys danced incredibly, the cheering crowd singing along and screaming for each individual’s part. They finished, making Hodong yell and cheer as well, each SHINee member bowed and did their signature, “SHINee hwaiting!” making the fangirls squeal.

“Now, Taemin, why don’t you have your long hair like the music video?” Hodong asked, his hand extended out to grab the audience’s attention. Taemin covered his mouth with a fist and laughed.

“Uh, well, I’m not sure. They’re extensions so they come and go.” Hodong ahh’ed and continued on with the show before the audience applauded one last time for SHINee. Onew smiled at Luna’ sitting back down next to her. They looked at each other for a moment before Onew looked away. Luna looked down and smiled to herself, proud of her oppa. She wanted to be alone with him already, no one else around.

The show went on and presented a couple more segments, at last some idols were able to participate in one, which was a guessing game. “Now, we will pick out some confident players who know their SM group’s hands, face, and hair.” Hodong went silent for a moment, for anticipation. “WHO, SHALL, PLAY?” He called out, looking over to the stand. Only a few people jumped up: Amber, Jessica, Onew, Jonghyun, and Yuri. They sat down in a line of chairs, facing away from the audience. The line began with Jessica, Amber, Onew, Yuri, and Jonghyun. “Ladies and gentlemen, when we pick you, very carefully step behind then while they put their blindfold on. Now, we made sure these blindfolds work, we aren’t going to use something like Minho’s shirt!” The audience laughed as Minho smiled and bowed slightly, laughing.

Hodong quietly picked out Victoria, Luna, Tiffany, Taemin, Minho, and Sooyoung. First in line they all held their hands out to the players. Victoria’s hand out was to Amber, Taemin’s was to Onew, Sooyoung’s was to Jessica’s, and Minho’s was to Yuri. As a joke, Hodong placed his hand in front of Jonghyun’s. Leeteuk, Hodong’s assistant for the moment, announced at the side to start to feel their hands.

“Jessica, who do you think your partner is?” Leeteuk asked.

Jessica had an unsure face. “Um… I don’t know…” She smiled, nervous. “Tiffany? Wait, wait, no! It’s Sooyoung!” The audience cheered for Jessica as she clapped her hands together in delight.

“Victoria!” Amber yelled out. The audience cheered.

“Uh… uh… Key?” Onew laughed, unsure. The audience laughed. Key yelled out that it was not him, and to try again. “Then it’s Taemin!” The audience quickly cheered.

“Minho!” Yuri yelled without hesitation.

“Yuri? Why are you so sure? Have you held this man’s hand before numerous times?” Everyone laughed, including Yuri, as she denied and shook her head.

“I don’t know, lucky guess?” She smiled, covering .

“Finally, JONGHYUN! Who is your partner?”

“I have NO idea…” Jonghyun was rubbing the hand like it was his lovers. The audience laughed loudly as he did this. Hodong quickly lifted Jonghyun’s blindfold, making him fall down from his chair. “YAH!” He screamed. Everyone laughed and cheered for Jonghyun’s embarrassment. Hodong put his hands over his stomach, laughing more. He composed himself, announcing the next set of people.

“Now, THESE people may or may not be from your own group… You may feel their hand or their face.” Hodong set Sulli in front of Jessica, Key in front of Amber, Luna in front of Onew, Krystal in front of Yuri, and Yoona in front of Jonghyun. They began to feel around their cheeks, eyes, hair, and hands. The audience laughed at some awkward moments. It wasn’t even half a minute until Onew yelled out-

“Luna-shi! It’s Luna-shi!” The audience cheered, he held onto her hand, smiling. Even with blindfolds on, Onew felt her smiling back at him.

“Of course he can tell who the woman he got flowers for is!” Hodong announced, making the audience roar with laughter and cheering. “Jessica, who is your partner?”

“Her hands are so soft, they feel very young, so is it Sulli?” The audience cheered. “Krystal has hands just like hers, you two are like babies.” Jessica giggled and covered , Sulli turned red and laughed softly. Krystal yelled out at Jessica, pointing.

“Oh! I know who my person is!” Amber announced. “This is easy, it’s Key!” Key smiled and the audience cheered once more.

“Yah! I still don’t know who my person is!” Yuri breathed in despair playfully, ruffling Krystal’s hair. “Krystal, help me!” The audience laughed and got her joke.

“Jonghyun? Any guess?” Hodong asked, his arms behind his back waiting.

“Her hands are very pretty… But I’m not sure…  Has she been up here before?”

“No, she has not.”

“Then Yoona? Her hands are thin, so… Yoona.” The audience laughed as Yoona blushed. The game quickly switched to a performance by SNSD. Since not all girls were there, they had to lip-sync some of it, focusing on the dance. Luna stared at how beautiful they moved. She eyed the others in the audience slightly to see who was gawking or not. Of course Jonghyun oppa was, but Minho seemed to look at Yuri the most. How cute. Luna glanced at Onew oppa for a moment. He kept his eyes on their shoes. Really? Their shoes? What the heck, oppa? Luna looked back at the girls and smiled as they finished. The crowd went wild, the girls bowed and hugged each other, proud.

It was around the end of the segment, and Hodong made some time to ask more questions for the idols. “Random question time! Funny and serious, but always interesting!” Leeteuk and Hodong stood beside each other, the giant screen behind them showing a cartoon container shaking.

“Yoona!” The container opened, reading, “Your ideal type?” The audience squeled, making her blush.

“Um… I don’t have one… I like masculine guys?” Hodong nodded, understanding.

“So SHINee is not it?” The audience laughed at Leeteuk’s statement. Yoona giggled and covered .

“Next… Luna! It reads, ‘your last kiss?’ Oh, wow, Luna do tell.” Luna turned red, her hand on her right cheek. Onew whipped his head over to her, staring. He had a voice in the back of his head telling him to not feel jealous if she answered anything other than-

“I’ve never kissed anyone.” Luna bowed and smiled to the camera as the audience ooh’ed. Onew gave a soft smile to himself, looking at the camera accidentally. He hoped that didn’t show his satisfaction or anything.

“Jonghyun! … Hmm, it reads, who gets home the latest?”

Jonghyun scratched his head, thinking. “Well… probably Onew hyung…”

“How late does he normally get home?”

“Um… Two a.m.?” The audience yelled, Hodong looking very shocked.

“Onew?! Why so late?” Hodong opened his mouth in shock.

“Uh, I donno. I like to think to myself while I wonder around.”

“Ah, yes, I’ve seen him do this before,” Yuri joined in, “It was actually just the other night…”

“Onew, is this true?”

Onew laughed nervously. “Uh, yes. It is.”

A few more questions were asked, but Onew just felt time fly by. He just wanted to be alone with Luna already. He had himself under some control throughout Star King, but now, these feelings were coming back. He felt evil, and wrong, but his brain was telling him so many things to do with Luna. Innocent or not.

Luna stood with Amber and Victoria while Sulli discussed with Yoona and Yuri what to do now that the show was over. Onew walked up to the girls, greeting them politely, and trying to join their conversation. “What are you girls deciding on?”

“Well, we think going to a club or something would be fun, but not out too late… maybe we can all see a movie?” Sulli looked at the girls, unsure. Yoona shrugged and Yuri nodded.

“Is Luna-shi coming with you guys, then? Is this a girls-only thing?” Onew tried to put on some charm by smiling playfully.

“Er-well, we were just going to have the girls together…”

Onew frowned, “Oh, well, okay… That’s fine. The boys and I can do something. I think we will go to a bar, except for Taemin and Minho of course. Maybe he should join you girls.” They smiled and agreed. Soon, the girls (along with Taemin and Minho) and boys separated to their own destination.

Onew got into a car with Key and Jonghyun. They played music while driving to a local bar, Jonghyun and Key dancing in the back seat, excited. Onew didn’t think of much since he was driving, but became excited when they finally arrived at the bar. Once they got in the bar, they saw some of Super Junior’s members. Onew cheered and hugged each of them, joining in their drinking.

All of f(x), Yoona, Yuri, Jessica, Sooyoung, Tiffany, Minho, and Taemin walked together to an age appropriate club, excited. They chatted, being in a large group. Everyone was dancing around already, playing until they reached a club called, “LOLLIPOP.”

“Such an odd name,” Minho said, scratching his head.

“Come on, hyung!” Taemin grabbed Minho’s hand as they raced in. The girls walked slowly, fixing any of their make up and hair. The club inside was warm, but with a very dark blue light, making everything look as if it were in the ocean.

Taemin walked up to Luna, bowing. “You need to prove to me this amazing dancing skills, Luna…” They spoke informally, being the same age. Luna slapped his shoulder, surprised by his bluntness. Suddenly, a loud, heavy remix of 2NE1’s Can’t Nobody began to play in the club. The crowd cheered, dancing. Taemin grabbed hold of her arm, pulling her into the middle of the club. He began his dance with some pops and sliding. Luna nodded, watching his amazing movement.

Taemin was so fixated on the music, moving to the beat so smoothly. He smiled at Luna, trying to show off. She huffed, trying to look as if he had nothing. It was her turn now, and she started with some smooth movement, slow and fast, and then broke out into a flashy movement. Taemin was impressed, smiling once more. Jessica, Tiffany, and Krystal all watched in amazement, giggling when they noticed they were watching. Luna gave up, too tired and wanting to have fun just messing around, she bowed and clapped for Taemin. Taemin jumped up and down with pride, beginning to dance on his own. Luna laughed and walked over to the girls. Minho, Yoona, and Yuri were talking, and decided to dance with Taemin.

Out of the conversation, Luna relaxed by herself at one of the tables. She watched the others talk, dance, and have fun. She was having fun too, but desperately wanted to see Onew. Even if she was having fun with others, she still wanted to see him…

In her head, she knew Onew oppa was a busy man, older than her, and wanted a noona. But in her heart, she knew oppa would at least want her back. Her confidence pushed her away from him constantly, and she was sick of it. The thought of how badly she felt over herself made her almost cry. She didn’t understand why she felt this low right now…

“Luna, are you alright?” Taemin sat down next to her, holding a bottle of water. He was a little sweaty, and gulped down the bottle. Luna smiled softly.

“I’m okay, I’m just tired a little. Your dancing really was amazing, Taemin.” Taemin smiled and thanked her.

“Well, I think I know why you’re upset…”

“Why?”

“Do you… have strong feelings for Onew hyung?”

Luna was quiet, deciding on what her answer should be…

“Taemin… please, promise me you won’t tell anyone else?” Taemin nodded like a little boy, agreeing.

“I’ve never felt this way about anyone else before… I think… I think I love Onew oppa, but I’m not sure. I’m confused.”

Taemin was quiet, not sure how to react. He smiled after a moment.

“I promise I won’t tell anyone, especially Onew hyung.” They pinky promised, kissing the finger for a sure agreement.

“Taemin, I also have another confession you must not tell anyone. It’s been bothering me for a while… I feel… bad.”

“Eh?”

“I drank soju with oppa.” Luna looked down, not trying to look at him. Taemin gave a disappointed look, but was sympathetic.

“You do crazy things for the ones you love, Luna. I’m the same age as you, so I know how you feel, being confused…” Taemin looked off into the crowd, where Minho danced with Yuri and Yoona.

At the bar, Onew talked to Key at the front bar, not trying to drink much because of their performance tomorrow. He looked to the crowd, noticing a strange man sitting by himself at a table for two, staring at him. He noticed his staring, and looked away. Onew felt a bit odd, his heart pumping nervously. He didn’t know if this guy was going to do something or not. Maybe he was thinking too much into this. Maybe he was a fan, keeping his distance. Onew kindly walked up to him, bowing politely.

“Annyeonghaseyo, nice to meet you.” Onew sat down next to him. The man bowed back, but was quiet. “Um, why are you sitting here alone?”

The man looked at him for a moment, and shrugged. “Just trying to relax. Hey, don’t I know you from somewhere?” Onew laughed awkwardly.

“I’m uh, I’m from SHINee, a popular group.”

“Oh, well, I was just kidding, by the way… I like your SM group a lot, all of them.”

“Really? What is your favorite?”

“F(x).” The man looked at Onew with a serious face. Onew then caught onto who this man really is. His face turned to a scared, serious expression. The man tried to stand up, but Onew grabbed him, demanding him to stay still.

“Why aren’t you thrown in jail for your attack?” He whispered in his ear. The others didn’t notice a thing, considering it was very dark, and everyone was drinking happily, half drunk. The man elbowed Onew in the stomach, free of his grasp.

“Why? What’s wrong? You think I’m gonna hurt your Luna-shi again? She’s a beautiful girl, isn’t she?” Onew heart was racing, his face burning with anger. He was clenching his fists, ready to fight. The man laughed. “She’s mine.” He looked into Onew’s eyes. They were dark, almost black. He looked to be around the same age as Onew.

“How can a man your age be so messed up? How dare you do such a thing to her?” Onew broke into a light sweat.

“You know what else I want to do with her besides hurt her?” Onew threw his body on top of the man’s, choking him, he heard enough. They both were behind a table and chair, hidden from the others. No one had any idea what they both were doing. “You didn’t,” he said between breaths, “let me answer…” he breathed in a large amount of air, “I’m going to do the exact same thing you want to do with her… whether she likes it or not.” Onew choked his neck tighter, his legs began to push into his stomach. Onew held him down with his legs, punching his temple and mouth. The man grabbed at Onew, pushing him down, he pulled out a small knife. “Look, I know where she is-“

“Don’t you hurt her, I’ll kill you!” Onew tried yelling out, but the music didn’t allow his scream to be heard. He felt helpless.

“LOOK. I know where she is, if I see you anywhere around me, I kill her. Listen to me, because I am serious.” Onew’s arms grew limp, his ears ringing. He had never experienced anything this frightening in his life. He tried to believe it was a dream, but the pain this man was giving him allowed him to believe this all was reality. He wanted to cry, but knew there was no time. The man broke loose; Onew tried with all of his might to grab him again, but he was too fast. The best decision to be made, he decided, was to call Minho. They needed to get out of there. He dialed Minho’s number almost instantly.

“Ah, yah, Onew hyung, what’s wrong? You’re lucky I just walked into the bathroom.”

“Minho! Please! You need to get out of there! That man who attacked Luna the other day is coming to that club! Please, please get her somewhere safe! He said if he finds me trying to stop him, he’ll… he’ll…”

“He’ll what, hyung?”

“He’ll kill her… get her out of there! NOW!”

Minho’s heart was racing once Onew hung up. He ran to Luna, sitting with Taemin.

“Luna-shi, you need to listen to me carefully… we need to get you out of here, I just got a call from Onew, that man who attacked you is coming to this club for you. Please, let’s get you out of here.”

Luna’s heart sank, she looked at Taemin, who was completely afraid. Minho, known for his protecting, pulled Luna aside and got her into one of SM’s extra cars, ones for cameras and managers. He told manager oppa what was going on. Without a second, manager oppa was driving, calling the police.

Onew stood by himself, his body in shock. He had no cuts or bruises, but he felt a breakdown once more. He couldn’t control himself. He stole a friend’s jacket and hat from the bar, and ran.
