The crowd beside me cheered as the screen flashed pictures of the Erotes in their debut stage.

I was with my teammates and Sirens at the VIP seats on the first row. Being from the same company, we were given access to such fine seats.

A girl behind me shrieked a pitch so high, the dogs barked, "Eros! I love you!"

"Pothos! Notice me!" The girl beside her screamed.

"Eros! Kyah!"

"Himeros, be mine!"

"Himeros is mine, b*tch!"

"I love you, Eros!"

The concert has not started yet but these girls feel like it already has. It's irritating. I try hard to ignore their screams, but how can I when they're so close to me?

Beside me, Psyche sat and took my hand, "I'm so excited!"

I smiled at her, "Yeah, me too."

"Amateurs," Vanessa scoffed on my other side.

Yes, unfortunately, she was the last one to arrive and the only seat available was the one between Ayumi and I.

Vanessa flipped her hair, "If the two of you were as close to them as I," she raised an eyebrow mockingly, "you'd already have seen their performance." She smirked, "And I tell you, it's very spectacular."

Psyche tightened her grip on my fist, a sign to calm down.

I smiled sweetly at Vanessa, "You're so lucky! I wish I had half your luck."

She smirked, "You wish."

"Eros! Omg!"

"Himeros! I love you!"

"You're too handsome, Eros!"

"Pothos looks more amazing!"

"I love you, Anteros!"

I pursed my lips and whispered to Psyche, "The fan girls are getting annoying."

She nodded, "They are, But you'll get used to it."

Then the spot lights turned on and directed it at the middle of the stage. The screams got louder.

In the middle of the stage was Himeros. Or Hudson. He looked dashing in his black suit that was decorated with a floral pattern. I should've laughed at his appearance because of the suit he wore but how can I when he looked absolutely handsome in it?

Instead of looking silly in a floral suit, he looked alluring. A lot of shouts resonated inside the room. Hudson just smiled dashingly at the crowd as he held his microphone.

It could've been that he's waiting for the crowd to die down but really, he was nervous. It wasn't visible but his hands slightly shook while holding the microphone.

He stared at the ground and spoke, "She put me through hell," subtly, I saw the other three members creep down beside him. They weren't visible enough because the light was directed at Hudson. "And I called it love," Hudson continued.

Then the lights went out. The girls screamed louder. I screamed with them as the music started.

(The song is Fake Love by BTS :) Love the song guys, it's very meaningful. Sorry, I'm kpop trash)

Tony--Or Anteros--was the first to sing. I never knew he could sing that low. He looks amazing. The first time he appeared, there were screams or love and other things. His black suit was designed with intricate gold in silver designs and his hair was styled neatly.

"If it's for you, I can act like I'm happy even when I'm sad," he sang, "If it's for you, I can act strong even when it hurts."

Then it was Eros, himself. I was annoyed at him but I can't deny that he looked handsome, probably as handsome as Tony was.

"I wish love was perfect as love itself," he sang, "I wish all my weaknesses could be hidden. I grew a flower that can't be bloomed in a dream that can't come true."

I was surprised when Damien sang the lyrics with a high voice. His normal voice was low, so it was really surprising.

"I'm so sick of this fake love, fake love, fake love," Pothos sang.

"His voice is that high?" I asked Psyche.

She shrugged and her jaw was dropped too, "I didn't know."

"I'm so sorry but it's fake love, fake love, fake love," sang Derek who even winked at the audience.

"Derek! I love you!"

"Kyah! Eros! I love you more!"

I acted like I was vomiting, "Eww," I said in disgust.

Psyche laughed, "Come on, Sophie. He's not disgusting."

"I wanna be a good man," Hudson rapped. Yes, he rapped. I thought he sang at first, but wow, I was wrong.

"Himeros! Oh my god!"

"Be mine!"

"Look at me, Hudson!"

"Just for you," Damien sang.

"I gave the world," Hudson continued as he danced with Damien.

"Pothos! You're a god!"

"Just for you," Damien sang again and winked at the girl who complimented him.

The poor girl fainted.

"I changed everything," Hudson said.

"Just for you," Damien sang.

"But I don't know me," Hudson continued.

"Who are you?" Damien asked.

Derek took the spotlighg and my eyebrows raised in slight surprise when I heard him rap, "The forest just for us, you weren't there," the kther three members danced behind him, "The route I took, I forgot. I even became quite unsure of who I was. Try babbling into the mirror, who the heck are you?"

"For you," Pothos sang, "I could pretend like I was happy when I was sad." The other girls tried to get his attention but his focus was solely on singing now. "For you, I could pretend like I was strong when I was hurt."

"I wish love was perfect as love itself," To y sang and it instantly brought a smile to my face. His voice was that good. "I wish all my weaknesses could be hidden. I grew a flower that can't be bloomed in a dream that can't come true."

"I love you, Anteros!" A girl screamed.

My heart fell when atony blew a kiss to the girl. I stopped myself from glaring daggers at Tony and crossed my arms in defeat. I huffed out a breath and leaned back on my chair.

"Love you so bad, love you so bad," Eros sang and danced flawlessly, "mold a pretty lie for you."

I'd love to tell you what I heard and understood of the screams I heard but zi hate the guy dancing so, sorry not sorry.

"Love it's so mad, love it's so mad," Tony sang and danced as equally powerful as Derek, "Try to erase myself and make me your doll."

I wasn't sure but I think Derek and Tony were having a little competition on the stage. They were trying to best the other.

"Love you so bad, love you so bad. Mold a pretty lie for you," Derek sang and threw in a wink.

"Love it's so mad, love it's so mad. Try to erase myself and make me your doll," Anteros sang.

"I'm so sick of this fake love, fake love, fake love," Damien sang and tried to shoot warning looks at the two boys.

"I'm so sorry but it's fake love, fake love, fake love," Tony sang with more effort in the dancing.

I was surprised that the two of them haven't broken down, gasping for air yet. The amount of energy they were exerting was too much.

"Why you sad? I don't know. I don't know," Hudson rapped, "Smile, say 'I love you'."

"I love you!" The crowd shouted.

"Look at me, even I gave up on myself," Hudson continued and tried to contain a smile, "Even you can't understand me." He took a deep breath before continuing, "You say I'm unfamiliar, changed into the one you used to like," he walked around the stage as the others danced behind him, "You say I'm not myself which you knew well," some fans threw roses at his feet, "No? What do you mean no? I'm blind," he picked up one rose and kissed it, "Love? What the heck is love? It's all fake love," he rapped then threw the rose back to the crowd.

"Woo, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why," Pothos sang in his high voice, "Woo, even I, even I don't know myself. Woo, I just know, I just know, I just know why," he sang in a lower tone of voice, but high nontheless, "'Cause it's all fake love, fake love, fake love."

"Love you so bad, love you so bad," Derek sang with more energy than before. Where was he getting all this energy? "Mold a pretty lie for you."

"Love it's so mad, love it's so mad," Tony sang and proved himself equal to the 'oh-so-great-god-of-love', Derek, "Try to erase myself and make me your doll."

"Love you so bad, love you so bad," Damien sang, "Mold a pretty lie for you."

"Love it's so mad, love it's so mad," To my surprise, Hudson sang, "Try to erase myself and make me your doll."

"I'm so sick of this fake love, fake love, fake love," Derek sang.

"I'm so sorry but it's fake love, fake love, fake love," Pothos sang.

Tony went to the front as he sang, "For you, I could pretend like I was happy when I was sad."

"For you, I could pretend like I was strong when I was hurt," Eros sang.

"I wish love was perfect as love itself," Pothos sang, "I wish all my weaknesses could be hidden."

Then in perfect harmony, Tony and Derek sang in unison, "I grew a flower that can't be bloomed in a dream that can't come true."

The crowd cheered. The Erotes are now real idols. I felt proud but the lingering sensation of jealousy remains.

A series of 'I love you's flew from every girl's mouth in the place.

Panting, Hudson managed a smile and waved, "Thank you for coming, everyone!"

Damien removed his earpiece and took deep breaths before he smiled at the crowd. He waved a little and made the fans go crazy, "Did you like the song?"

"Yes!" The crowd replied with a mix of 'I love you's.

Tony and Derek weren't panting as hardly ad the other two. They looked normal. Their breathing wasn't as fast as Hudson and Damien. Theirs were just quickened a little.

"We would like to introduce ourselves first," Hudson said, "My name is Hudson Frankley, but you should call me Himeros. Do you know who that is?"

One girl screamed, "I do!"

Hudson smiled at her and walked to where she was. I was sure that every girl wanted to faint but were keeping their cool. Hudson offered her his hand, "Join me on the stage, miss—?"

"Fate, my name is Fate," she said and bit her lip so she wouldn't scream. She took his hand and let him pull her up.

Hudson grinned, "Would you say that meeting you was Fate?"

The girl turned red all over as she was pulled to the stage. I was surprised she hasn't fainted yet.

"Could you tell us what our stage names mean?" Damien asked Fate.

"Himeros is the god of desire. Pothos is the god of passion," she answered then turned to Derek who tried not to look bored. Her cheeks reddened when their eyes met, "Eros, the god of love."

"And what about me, Fate?" Tony asked her.

Fate's cheeks turned even more red, "Um . . . I'm sorry. I actually don't know."

Tony smiled dazzlingly at her, "It's quite alright, Lady Fate. I already have someone in mind to ask," then his eyes met mine.

My heart thumped loudly as he walked very slowly towards me. Vanessa had an annoying smirk on her face.

"I knew he liked me," Vanessa stated and flipped her hair over her shoulder.

"Where are you going, Haris?" Derek asked and made Tony stop.

Tony looked back at him, "Well, I'm just going to get a girl to answer the question."

Derek raised an eyebrow, "Why?"

Tony shrugged, "Himeros did it, why can't I?"

The crowd laughed at that. Derek smiled—like really smiled, I know, shocking—then ran his hand through his hair, "Well, if that's the case, let me get the girl who can answer the question."

Then he looked at me too. Beside me, Psyche repeatedly slapped her hand on my arm, "Oh my god! He looked at me! I'm going to faint! Hold me!"

I chuckled and patted her hand, "Don't overreact."

"He did look at me didn't he?" She asked.

I nodded and continued patting her hand, "Sure he did."

On my other side, Vanessa scoffed, "He was obviously staring at me."

I clicked my tongue in annoyance. I looked at her with a piercing glare but my lips were smiling, "He was not, Vanessa. He was looking at Psyche."

He was looking at me but whatever.

Vanessa raised her perfectly shaped eyebrow, "No he was not. He was looking at me!"

"No need, Eros," Tony told him, "I can get a girl easily."

Derek raised a brow at him, "No, no, Anteros. She's closer to me so I'll get her."

Then they started walking in my direction.

"See? They're after me," Vanessa stated and smirked.

"Really, Eros," Tony said, "I don't need your help. She's just over there," he said and pointed to me.

"No! They're looking at me!" Psyche argued, "my eyes met theirs."

Vanessa scoffed, "They did not. They met mine."

The two boys kept walking forward and some of the girls who couldn't see what was happening were standing from their seats to see what was happening.

"Oh but I think you need it," Derek patted his shoulder and walked faster.

"No, I do not," Tony said and walked in front of him.

"It's me!" Psyche stated.

"No, me!" Vanessa argued.

"They're walking to me!" The girl behind me exclaimed.

Vanessa, Psyche, and I all looked at the girl. Vanessa and Psyche glared at her and she shrank in her seat.

"I mean, they're not walking to me!" She corrected.

The two boys were now walking side to side, trying to go faster but being equal to the other. Tony and Derek stared at me until I felt uncomfortable.

I shifted in my seat and when I finally had enough of the constant argument of Psyche and Vanessa, the shouts of girls, and the intense stares Tony and Derek were giving me, I stood from my seat.

"I'm going to the rest room," I proclaimed and then walked away.

I should've walked to the side. I would've.

But when I got up from my seat, Vanessa and Psyche pushed at each other. They were having a cat fight. And in one point, a hand pushed me in Tony and Derek's direction.

More screams erupted as I regained my balance and the two were closer. I gulped and ducked my head as I passed.

A futile attempt. The two boys got each of my arms. Tony with my left and Derek with my right,  preventing me from escape.

Without a word, the two lifted me off the ground using my arms, and carried me to the stage. I struggled in their grip but I couldn't escape.

When I was on the stage, I saw Vanessa's and Psyche's surprised expressions.

My cheeks reddened and I lowered my head so my face wouldn't be seen. Tony and Derek released me and faced the crowd.

"Was she the girl you were talking about?" Damien asked.

Hudson smirked, "She certainly is, Pothos."

Tony cleared his throat then asked, "So, what's your name, miss?"

"Sophie," I replied.

"And can you answer the question?" Derek asked.

"What's the question?" I asked and raised my head.

"Tell me who Anteros is," Tony answered.

I smiled, "That's easy but it wouldn't be beneficial to me if I answer, so . . . No thank you." I said then ran off to leave the stage.
