"Mono, where is Grey?" I asked confused as I roam inside SHADOW's dorm. The clean surroundings shocking me a little as my eyes were already used to the constant litters scattered around the floor.There is, in fact, seven good-looking guys living here anyways. It isn't unusual to see that kind of environment when you have seven full grown men living on it. Though I was sure Raze occasionally scolds them about it.He lifted his head from the book he was reading as his eyes squinted, as if his eyes can get any smaller."I haven't seen him since this morning. I think he maybe in his room." he stated before checking back on his book.Sky isn't home as well as Storm while I saw Raze cooking in the kitchen along with Demo."Hmm?" my eyes automatically landed on the watch hanging on my wrist. "It's almost five in the afternoon, he hasn’t eaten?" I mumbled to myself.Zanaya asked me to accompany her on SHADOW's dorm because she and Seth has something to talk about.If I only know, those two a
Tokyo's POVSoft chuckles escaped my lips when I heard Grey grunted from the other corner of the room.Me sending him weird photos must have annoyed him.I was sure he was playing something over his phone but that doesn't stop me from making his blood boil.He won't be able to avoid me this time. Not after one ling month of him having a Tokyo-free life.The whole SHADOW ended up in our dorm and honestly, not seeing Grey for a whole month makes me realize how pestering him had made every day of my life just a little bit meaningful than it normally is.Due to long hours of practices and other stuffs, my busy self wasn't able to continue the job which is annoying that Golden youngest member.The fact that they are on a tour isn't much of great help either.However, after Storm barged in inside our dorm, and him telling that Seth fetch Zanaya, my mind immediately went thinking about Grey.Images of him hugging me from behind inside his room flashes before me.My cheeks felt so hot at the
Tokyo's POV"So..." I broke the silence that's filling in the room, tension rising and I know myself that this isn't a good thing."You knew?" Cali looking at Storm who just scratched his forehead.Yeah, this is definitely not a good thing.Cali 's eyes landed on Zanaya.Her family just left and we're all shock about the new information that we just found out.Zanaya and Seth were married, like legally married and not just some boyfriend and girlfriend.They are married.Then it all down into me. Everything that had happened. Those moments when Zanaya was crying so hard, those moments when she almost fainted after seeing a new scandal about Seth being linked to some other girl. Or that time when she almost lost it after the Sally and Seth incident.Everything now made sense.My eyes snapped to Zanaya's direction when she suddenly spoke. "I didn't tell him,"But then Cali just marched straight to her room.Before she did, my eyes caught the sight of her pained expression, and it broke
Alex's POV"Two weeks Alex! Can you believe it?" I watch as Tokyo pouted, repeating her story for the past hour ever since I arrive on their dorm.She had been inanimately trying to tell a story about her "supposed" friend on replay and my ears are getting tired of it."Remind me again why I am here?" a yawn escape my lips as I look at her, an exasperated look visible on her face."What the-Alex you prick! He kissed her! How many times do I have to tell it you?" She grunted as she finished the chicken that I brought over.It's past 6 pm and she bombarded my phone with calls and messages that meant s.o.s so I went over in a flash, only to find out that it has something to do with boy problems.As much as I love her, I am not a person who is good enough to give advice on love problems. And that's exactly what this is all about.Tokyo had been the closest girl to me like ever, even way back in Thailand where we used to be on a team.Who would have thought that we'll both end up as an art
Tokyo's POV"Are you and Alex dating?" Zanaya asked and I raised my eyebrows at her."How many times are you guys going to ask me that question?" I pouted.It has been years but that question still pops out of nowhere every time Alex and I meet, of course, that's coming from my members.They still couldn't believe the fact that we two are only friends, best of friends to be exact.I mean, what is so hard to understand with that?I know Alex is hot. That's given but I'd probably puke if I ever saw myself kissing him. And I'm sure he feels the same. He probably sees me as a guy friend to be honest."Until you find yourself a man of your own, I will always think that you and Alex are a thing. Though I actually heard something about a kiss and your name being associated with it." she smiled cheekily and my cheeks blushed in instant.Grey Simons, you bitch.I stood up from my seat, a little uneasy. I'm not ready to answer any questions yet when I don't even know what happened between us.F
Tokyo's POV"Ahmm, what?" I greeted as I opened my eyes, annoyance can be heard in my tone as I answer Grey's video call."Sorry, did I wake you up?" he asked worriedly and I pouted before turning around from lying face front on my pillow."You think?" I rolled my eyes at him which earned a chuckle from the guy.For days, Grey had been regularly sending me messages and video calling me using a different phone. He didn't say why and I didn't bother asking. Plus, we always bicker whenever we talk with each other, which ends our conversation to be shorter. To be honest, I still don't understand why he kept on calling me when all we do was fight over small things.The fact that he didn't told me that they have a concert pissed me off a little.I put some effort in baking some cookies for him when I found out that Zanaya will bring them food. My hands got blisters only to see photos of them doing a runway show at the airport.And then we had another fight.One time, he told me to stop sitt
Tokyo's POV"Yah! Do you want to die?" I scoffed at Grey Simons who seemed to be having fun pissing me off.It has only been an hour but my insides felt giddy. Yeah, giddy but in a bad way.I put down my feet from the couch and rolled my eyes on him before heading straight to the kitchen to grab a glass of water leaving the rest of them behind.He chuckled at my actions and I must say, I hated it.Jerk.SHADOW is at our dorm doing whatever.Everyone ended up watching some Avengers movie, a few of them cuddling but I decided to sit alone. Grey must have not gotten the message so he continually pisses me off.Sometimes, I hate the fact that Seth and Zanaya are legally married. Because of that, they guys had easy access to our dorm.Usually, it shouldn't be a problem because I've come to like them already. They are like my older brothers and this is SHADOW we were talking about. Who wouldn't want to be with them?However, no matter how boyish I am, I am still a girl and every girl has th
Tokyo's POV"Tokyo, are you sure you would be fine alone in here?" I heard Cali, her worried tone didn't quite get passed on my sensitive ears.Regardless of how distressed I am feeling, my WHISTLE sensor can easily detect each and every emotion that my member has.This time, all three had been worried about me since yesterday.With my body into a fetus position, the blanket covering me does its job from making me feel warmer as I pray to God that the bad cramps on my stomach stop.It was yesterday when SHADOW stayed in our dorm and all I did was camp inside my room.Even after Grey tried to reach me out, I didn't open my door. I'm not sure I can handle him at this point. Plus, it'll be easier for me to move on if I'm not seeing him, which I doubt I would be successful in doing since Zaya and Seth are married.Every hormone on my body had been aware of how Grey camped outside of my door, waiting for me to open it for him. Too bad I'm really not feeling well, yet I can't tell it to him
Cali's POV"Okay, this is so upsetting. Why are you able to go around like this when I was close to going crazy after I just gave birth to Ashton?" Zanaya scowled as we sat on the couch, on her hands were a bowl of nachos that we've been munching since she arrived. "We married two different men, Zanaya. They think and act the exact opposite like each other," I chuckled as Zanaya pouted. It's cute how she'd start whining about it."But it's unfair! You always have this time to chitchat with us not worrying that your baby will cry," I saw Storm shaking his head from afar. He was seated while he watches Ashton stare at our baby who was sleeping on the crib. Ashton was simply standing and staring at her in awe. He can hear our conversation as well as Seth. Storm takes care of our child. He likes to be hands-on and is always insisting that I take a rest. "Zanaya, our case was different. You kinda have a postpartum then which I don't. Plus, Storm may have gotten quite a few notes seeing
Cali’s POVI was literally lost about everything that was happening. Just then, the sound of Ashton's voice filled the room. "Aunt Chu!" my eyes turned towards Ashton the same moment their eyes snapped towards mine. Ashton stood up and walked towards me. "Aunt Chu, this yours?" he asked innocently and my eyes widened when he gave me a ring, a diamond one. Max and Tokyo's gasped filled the room while Zanaya was squealing. What the hell? Why were they acting like that? "Yah!" Storm's voice echoed the room and he looked so pissed off. Now, even Seth immediately kneeled beside the two. "I swear I just put it on top of the table. I didn't know Ashton will take the ring," he pleaded and my jaw almost dropped on the floor. So, this ring was Storm's?I saw how the girls were all acting giddy and excited. The place... The balloons and ribbons... The snowballs... The photos... Is this what I think it is? Slowly, my hands covered my lips as I started to shake. "Oh my God..." I whis
Cali’s POV"How long have you've been dating?""Storm! Do your members know about your relationship from the beginning?""What are your next plans?""California! What do you think about your fans' reaction? Now that all of WHISTLE is in a relationship, your fans are organizing a boycott! Are you going to disband?!""Storm! What can you say about the rumors that it was Cali who probably gave motive-”?The reporter wasn't even able to finish as Storm stopped midway after letting me in first, even covering my head for support. He faced the reporters particularly the last one who seemed taken aback at Storm's actions. He can be very intimidating. "First of all, it was me who made a move first," he started and all of the reporters kept their mouth shut. The power that he holds. "Second, when she first met me, I was merely Storm and she doesn't have the slightest idea that someone with a stage name of SHADOW’s Storm exists. And even so, Cali isn't the type of person who clings into some
Cali's POV"Cali, why are you here? You are supposed to be preparing for your press conference..." my boss asked and I bowed in greeting as I moved forward. He was sipping his coffee while reviewing a few documents he has in front of him. I can't remember how many times I've come here in this office, all because of my relationship with Storm. And every time I go out, it's either me crying or me being on my loneliest state.This specific office had never given me a good memory. The news about my debut anything good was all delivered on a conference hall downstairs. Sometimes, I dread coming in here. "Boss..." I started. There's this fifty percent chance that this talk wouldn't bring me any good like the past ones but I gotta try. "I know I've been pushing my luck a lot of times already but again, I want to ask for your permission," I started. He wasn't looking at me but that didn't stop me from speaking my thoughts. "I promise; I will work harder. I will make sure this relationshi
Storm's POV"I can't believe you're doing this," I turned around and saw Raze, struggling as he ties down the ribbons. I just passed him another set to finish. I was about to speak when we were startled after one balloon popped. "Yahhhh!!!" I glared at Sky and Grey who's playing. Seth was giving out a v-sign while grinning. To think that he's already married with a kid, he sure still acts a lot like Grey and Sky still. Well, he's almost of the same age after all. "Yah! Why do I have to do this when you're the boyfriend?" Raze snickered but continued tying the ribbons. "Right. I haven't slept since last night. Can't you like, get an organizer for this stuff or something?" Demo asked and I threw him my slippers. "You just woke up! So much for being my friend," I scowled and he laughed adorably. ", are you sure about this? I mean, this is something else. You're gonna have to live like how Seth and Zaya used to," Mono asked and I saw how all the boys focus where on me. My eyes shi
Cali's POV"What's happening? I thought everything was settled?" I paced back and forth as the girls try to pacify me. It hadn't been two weeks after Max and Sky revealed their relationship to the public and here we getting the biggest downfall on our careers after my relationship with Storm had been revealed. "Cali..." Zanaya was looking at me in worry while Tokyo and Max checks on the articles online. They were using Tokyo's laptop. It was there, on every social media platform, photos of me and Storm, from our dates when I was a trainee, those days when we got back together, and even those days when we already broke up. Everything was there and it scares me. I just woke up and everyone was in panic. I thought it has been taken cared of? Storm was not here and was still in their company. Our managers had gotten our phones because everybody has been contacting us. Fans are possessive. Imagine finding out Zanaya's marriage with Seth. That was more than enough to shake our career
Cali's POV"Cali..." the girls spread their arms and engulfing me in a hug. My lips quiver and I felt them brushing my hair and rubbing my back. It has been three days after the incident in which Storm had to leave the house after our managers decided it's best that we part ways after what happened. Everybody was frantic and I was so out of it that Storm had to call me every now and then to make sure everything was okay. His focus was all on me, how I was doing, if I've already eaten. He was so selfless I feel like I don't deserve him. Our boss didn't talk to me. I was never called to the seventh floor. Instead, a lot of meetings had happened and Storm told me they're trying to figure things out. What it is or their plans, I don't have any idea until we saw the articles on the internet about Sky and Max's relationship. Photos of their dates were shown. I was surprised to see multiple photos taken on multiple occasions too. So now I wonder if Boss had a lot of instances in which
Cali's POV"Sorry son, I know how much you suffered because of me," my father stated and it broke my heart to hear him say those words. I felt the air feeling like it was being taken out of my lungs. Why? Why did Storm suffer because of him? Did he do something to Storm? Curious, I stay glued hiding behind the wall. "It's all my fault and I will forever repent on my sins. If I didn't gamble, if that reporter didn't see you helping me, then BP Enterntainment wouldn't have to do something about it. You wouldn't have to sacrifice your love for her. You did a lot just so she can reach her dreams," my father added and I felt my world started crumbling in front of me. My knees weaken and it was as if my soul was being extracted from my body. What did I just hear? No. Storm didn't deliberately leave me a few years ago. He did it for me. Gambling is illegal in Korea and I can't believe my father actually even do that. "I'd do it again if I have to," my lips quiver at Storm's words.
Cali's POV"Are you sure this is a good idea?" I heard Storm's voice. My brows furrowed. He'd been acting so weird lately. It's been so long since he last went to our house and today is my father's birthday. We agreed that he'll drop by our house for dinner. Actually, I forced him into it. This was not the first time he'd visit our house but this will be the first time after I debut. Come to think of it, ever since we got back together, he never went to our house like he used to. Storm was close to my family. My Mom love him so much and my father adored him the same way. Even after we broke up then, I never heard my family saying anything bad about him. "We've talked about this Storm. It's my father's birthday," I told him in a stern voice. I felt his hand on mine tightening a little. Why is he so tense? He looked at me nervously. We were on the van together. "Did you tell them I'm coming?" he asked again and I raised an eyebrow at him. "It was meant to be a surprise? Or do yo
