158 Special Right
“Obviously, this is your job. Plus, you have to fulfill the rest of your promise, right?” EROS said before he flashed me a very attractive and seductive smile.
That smile could have held its own on the front cover of any magazine and he was showing it to me in private. My heart skipped a beat before I giggled. My reaction drew a confused look from him and that made me laugh a little harder.
“I look forward to working with you, EROS,” I said before flashing him a smile of my own.
His golden eyes widened at me in surprise before his beautiful lips curved into a smile and then he started laughing along with me. Suddenly, it felt like we were just young kids playing around and enjoying a carefree life where nothing really mattered. I had no idea how much effort went into preparing a concert even if it was just a charity one; however, I was thankful that EROS was willing to go along with it even if it cost me something.
“Stop bothering Elena. She’s tired...” EROS told his manager passively but the glare in his eyes as he stared at Mark definitely got his message across.
“Right. Please...rest for the day...” Mark mumbled when he turned to face me.
“I’m feeling quite ok...actually...” I replied with a small smile.
“Come with me...” EROS muttered before gesturing with his hand for me to follow him.
As EROS walked away, Mark stared at me with a questioning look on his face. Obviously, he wanted to know if I managed to convince EROS to perform at the upcoming charity concert. The grim look of dread on his face told me that he wasn’t exactly expecting great news so this was going to come as a great surprise for him.
.....
“He’ll do it...” I announced simply.
“Really?! He’ll really do it?!” Mark exclaimed in clear shock.
“Yeah...he made me a promise so...” I replied softly.
“I’ll start on the preparations right away. Elena, you just stay with EROS and make sure that he doesn’t run away...” Mark said before grabbing my hands in his and shaking them up and down in his extreme joy.
The look of relief that flooded his facial features made me want to giggle at him. Life would be much easier for him if he could come up with some way for him to deal with EROS. Then again, EROS wasn’t someone who was easy to deal with...and neither was Sean.
“Elena...”
I heard a familiar voice calling my name and knew that I had to go now.
“Coming!” I quickly called out to him before quickly making my way to his side.
I walked casually at his side as I wondered what the day had in instore for us. I’ve never been to a proper rock concert apart from the event that EROS dragged me to when he was looking for some musical inspiration. Prior to that, I wasn’t sure if an all-out rock concert was my kind of thing and an opportunity never presented itself, so I never went to one. Therefore, I had no idea what a concert would be like, and I definitely had no idea about what kinds of preparations were required to host a proper concert.
“Umm...what will you be doing today?” I asked as I stared up at his face curiously.
“Want to help me pick out some songs for the concert?” he asked.
His sudden suggestion caught me off-guard, and for a moment, I didn’t know how to respond. EROS must have misunderstood my sudden lapse of silence.
“Don’t tell me that you still don’t know any of my songs...” EROS asked suspiciously as he narrowed his eyes at me.
“Of course, I know your songs. Actually, I know all of your songs. I did my homework, you know...” I quickly replied before he got the wrong idea.
“Then, can you help pick out some songs for the concert? I’m not even sure how many they want, maybe you pick out around ten for now...” EROS continued on with his suggestion.
Even if he said that I didn’t know which songs I should pick and on what basis should I be choosing them.
“I’m not sure if I’m the right person for this role. I’m not sure which songs the audience would like to hear...” I confessed honestly.
“Any would be fine. My audiences are always extremely easy to please. They’ll listen to whatever as long as they’re my songs,” EROS replied like it was nothing.
“If that’s the case then, won’t any song be just fine?” I asked.
“For the audience, probably, but not for me. I want to sing the songs that you want to hear, Elena,” EROS said as his eyes met mine.
Perhaps there wasn’t any hidden meaning or significance in his words, but I couldn’t stop the strange way that my heart seemed to leap at his words. Although he was just asking me to pick out some songs for him to perform, suddenly it felt like he was trying to do something special for me.
“Ok...I’ll do it...” I mumbled as I got lost in his beautiful golden eyes.
“Great. I’ll look forward to it,” EROS said.
Just then, we arrived at our destination. I found out when we walked in through the doorway that it was a very large dance studio.
“Dance practice?” I asked EROS.
“Want to dance with me?” he asked before he flashed me a charming smile.
“Huh? N-No...I can’t!” I quickly declined his offer.
There was no way that I could dance the way that he could, and I didn’t even want to bother trying. Suddenly, I was so flustered at his extremely random suggestion. The sound of the door to the dance studio opening was what saved me. I turned towards the door to see a very muscular and tan man walk in. Clearly, he was the dance instructor.
“You’re here earlier than me...for once...” the man said as he threw his bag down onto the floor at his feet.
