At the office...

Nathan sat on a chair facing the owner of the bar. He was stunned when he saw the owner's face. He was so handsome and he have such a strong aura. This was the first time he met the owner face to face. Before this he only saw that face in magazines.

Tee: Javy, are you sure this is the first time you met him face to face?

Javy nodded.

Tee: But both you are from the same university. How can you never met him at the campus?

Javy: Tee, the university is large and there are over one thousand students. I've only heard some rumors about him. He's really famous at the campus because of his adorable looks and his voice.

Nathan just smile. Tee look at Nathan's face.

Tee: You can come to my bar every night at 10 pm. I'll let my workers prepare the stage for you.

Nathan: Does this mean I am being accepted?

Tee nodded.

Nathan : But you haven't...

Tee: I trust Zayden and I've seen your video when you are singing. You are really great, Nathan.

Nathan: Thank you, Tee !

He was very happy that time. After the meeting, he message Zayden right away. He told Zayden that he can sing at the bar start tonight and he asked Zayden if he can come or not but Zayden said he can't come to see Nathan's first performance. Their training will be ended at 11 pm and maybe they will have some discussion about the upcoming tournament.

At first Nathan was sad because he really want Zayden to see his first performance but seems like Zayden really can't. Nathan try to understand Zayden too so it's okay if he didn't come.

At night...

Nathan is standing backstage. He was waiting for his name to be called to perform.

Javy: Are you okay? You look very nervous. Do you want some water?

Nathan nodded. James give him a bottle of mineral waters. Nathan open the lid and have some drink. He was very nervous at that time.

Javy: Where is Zayden?

Nathan: He didn't come.

Javy: I thought he will come to see your first performance but it's okay...I'll support you from there. (Javy point out to the VIP area under the stage)

Nathan: Thank you, Javy.

"How are you, guys? Are you ready for tonight performance? For your information, we have a new singer. I hope you will enjoy and have fun ! I will call our singer tonight, Nathan Ian !"

Javy: Do your best, Nathan !

Nathan: Thank you Javy !

Nathan went on stage with a mic in his hand. When he was on stage, the beats of his heart was very fast. He looked ahead and he was surprised to see so many people coming to the bar. He was very worried if he couldn't perform at his best. He didn't want to disappoint the visitors who came that night. Moreover, he is performing at Thailand's biggest bar, Gemini.

Nathan: Sawadeekrub. I am Nathan Ian. You can call me Nathan.

He then smile to the audience. All of the audience were clapping their hands as soon as Nathan introduced himself.

"You're so cute, Nathan !"

"Oho...you are so cute !"

The audience keep on praising Nathan. Seems like they really love Nathan.

Nathan: I will sing a song called Senorita. Please look forward to it ...

"Alright, Nathan !"

The music start playing as soon as Nathan give them a signal. Nathan was still nervous. He can't even make an eye contact with the audiences. He put his mic closer to his mouth. He start to sing.

He stop singing for a while. He try to make an eye contact with the audiences but he can't. He was so nervous. He stop singing again. His heart was beating so fast as he couldn't control himself. He look at the audiences.

Suddenly some of the audiences give him some motivation to lift up his confident.

"Nathan, you can do it !"

"Don't be nervous !"

"Nathan, you can do it !"

Nathan: I'm sorry...can you give me some time?

The audiences: Yes, Nathan !

Nathan take a deep breath. He look at the audiences then he closed his eyes. He try to throw away the nervous inside him. He need to be confident so that Tee and Zayden will not disappointed towards him. This is for his club !

Suddenly Nathan heard someone was singing. He immediately open his eyes and he was very surprised when he saw Zayden. Zayden was holding a mic while standing at the audience's seat. Nathan's eyes open widen. He didn't expect to see Zayden that night. All of the audiences now focus at Zayden.

Suddenly one of the audience calling his name and Nathan look at him.

The audience: Who was that guy? The one that singing along with you just now? Your boyfriend?

Nathan was very shocked when he heard the question. He didn't know how to answer the question. Yes, he love Zayden and he realized that Zayden loves him too. It just Zayden never said he love him directly. What kind of relationship did they have all this time?

Nathan: He's not my boyfriend. He's even not my friend.

The audience: That's mean I have a chance to hitting on you, right?

Nathan: Hia?

Zayden: I'm checking on you. Why did you took so long?

Nathan: Someone was bumping into me on my way to the toilet just now and he spill his wine on my shirt. (Nathan showed his shirt to Zayden)

Suddenly Zayden eyes stuck at Nathan's neck.

Zayden: What happened to your neck? Who's lipstick is it?

Nathan look at Zayden and he saw Zayden's fierce eyes.

Nathan: Err....someone was mistaken me as his boyfriend. Maybe he was too drunk and thought that I am his boyfriend.

Zayden: When you're done, please come back. I'm waiting. (without looking at Nathan)

Zayden was about to leave the toilet but Nathan immediately grab Zayden's hand. Nathan didn't know what happened but Zayden looks mad and his fierce looks is so scary. He look at Zayden.

Nathan: Hia...what happened? Why are you this mad?

Zayden: ...

Nathan: Hia...

Zayden: ....

Nathan: Hia...please say something.

Zayden look at Nathan's eyes.

Zayden: I hate to see that lipstick on your neck. It's disgusting !

Nathan touch his neck. Did Zayden just show that he was jealous?

Nathan: Then, what do you want me to do? It's possible to erase them with the water, Hia...

Zayden move closer towards Nathan and look into Nathan's eyes. Their eyes locked together. Zayden put his right hand on Nathan's waist and caressed them. Then, he whisper to Nathan and say,

Zayden: Do you know how beautiful you are? Hmmm? That's why other people mistaken you as their boyfriend because you are too beautiful. Your eyes...your nose...your lips...everything about you are so beautiful. Sometimes, I can't handle myself when I see you, Ian...You make me want to kiss you...hug you...but luckily I can't handle it because I want to respect you.

Nathan: ....

Zayden: I'm addicted to you, Ian...
