•SAME NIGHT••WILDSOR MANSION•
Trace was the first to step out of the car,he open the car door for Amelia and she stepped out gracefully too.
They both entered the house and the first thing Amelia went to check was Therasa,wanting to announce their arrival but she didn’t met her in her room.
She got back to the living room and face Trace.
“I can’t find your mum?” She said seriously.
Trace look up and let out a small chuckle.
“What?”
“You’re sounding as if she was kidnaped” Trace replied.
“It’s unusual for her not to be in the house, that’s why I’m worried” Amelia rolled her eyes.
“She’s having a lot of work to do, so she won’t be coming home tonight” Trace said.
“What! Really?”
“Yes, that’s why she ask me to keep you company. I guess you’ll be scared to stay alone” Trace said in a mockery tone.
“Wh@ťěver” She scoffed and grabs the remote control, switching on the TV,the first thing athta caught her attention was the news about MP’s new song.
“Your new song will be released tomorrow?” She ask Trace.
“You didn’t know?” Trace said disappointedly.
“I’m not a fan of yours, only Lily is crazy about you guys” Amelia laughed.
“Does that make you an anti-fan?” He muttered.
“No, I don’t just fancy musical band, that doesn’t mean I h@ťě you guys” She said as Trace sat next to her.
The teaser of the music was played next,and Amelia couldn’t help but drool over Trace’s profile. He was in the center since he’s the leader and the make up just make him insanely hot.
“Lia….” He suddenly called her name and she turned.
“You weren’t listening” Trace said.
“Listening? We’re you saying something?” She blinked and Trace just stared at her in disbelief.
“Nothing…..”
“Let’s change the channel to something else” She took the control nervously and was about to press the button but Trace grab it fast.
“Why? You just said you don’t h@ťě us?” He said, raising it above his head.
Amelia stood up and try to take it back from him but he kept raising his hand,and she didn’t know when she start climbing on him.
She finally succeeded in taking it back, but the next thing she realized was his hand on her waist.
He has been holding it since earlier but they both got lost with the control.
“Oh my goodness, I’m sorry” She quickly apologize and try to get off, but he didn’t let her go.
They stared at each others face for what seem like forever, Amelia’s heartbeats racing fast but strangely,she felt bad,not hearing his.
“Can I kiss you?” He was already leaning in,she didn’t give it a thought before nodding.
Trace held her small face and crashed his lips on hers.
She responded almost immediately his lips met her soft lips,and Trace pulled her lips closer, hardening the kiss.

•RICKY MANSION•NEXT MORNING•
Ricky entered the room and met Lily in snuck in bed,smiling at something on her phone.
He moved closer and sat at the edge wondering what’s making her smile so much,then he see she was watching the MV of their new song.
“You’re watching it already?” He said surprisedly.
Lily turn to him and sat up.
“Told you to wake me up by 12, I want to be the first to watch it” She mumbled.
“You were tired, and you can always watch it today”
“Even though,I shouldn’t have missed the airing” Lily pouted.
“Our concert is tomorrow” Ricky said.
“I can’t wait” She squealed.
“Me too, now let’s get you washed up” He pulled the duvets from her body,and carried her.
“Thanks to someone,I won’t be able to use my legs for the whole of today”
“Not my fault, I’ve waited for too long” He smiled.
“Should we continue from where we stop?” She winked.
“Gosh… When did you become this bad?” Ricky chuckled…
“You taught me” She replied.

•THE BILLS•
“Getting ready? Aren’t you done yet” Minnie said coming in.
“Not yet, you’re early” Rudy replied.
“I know, I was just too bored in the house” She sat on his bed and grabs the pillow while pouting her lips.
“What’s wrong?” Rudy went to her.
“Your mum still doesn’t like me for you” She muttered sadly.
“Why do you say that?” He asked.
“I dunno, I just feel it. Maybe she still want Lily for you” She added.
Rudy sighed.
“Are you giving up that easily?” He said.
“On what?”
“Make her like you. Stop being her materialistic things and show her a good side of you, in no time, she’ll start liking you” Rudy explained.
“Are you sure?”
Rudy nodded.
“Of course” He said.
Minnie smiled and gave him a quick peck on the lip.
“So…. Where are we going?”
“Anywhere you want” Rudy said and she let out a smile.

•MP MANSION•7PM•
Kelly was outside the mansion,smoking when Kris came out.
“What the f-__-k dude? Has it gotten to this?” He spat in shock.
Kelly looked up but said nothing, he resumed what he was doing.
Kris walk up to him and grabbed the cigarettes from him,he threw it to the floor and matches on it.
Kelly got up and push him hard that he almost fell.
“Mind your own f-__-king business, we ain’t friends” He hissed and started leaving.
“The Kelly I used to know, h@ťě smell of smoke and not you’re taking it. You’ve really changed a lot” Kris said.
Kelly stopped walking…. He faced him.
“Maybe you never really know who I am, you never care about me before, why are you just showing stupid concern now….
“I know it’s hurt to loose your sister but stop blaming others about it….” Kelly grabbed his collar before he could finish.
“Stop bringing her into this conversation” Kelly yelled at the verge of tears.
“You really have to let her go now, it’s been f-__-king four years ago….” Kris shot and Kelly punch him hard immediately.
“I should forget? You of all people know how much she mean to me, you were my f-__-king friend but what did you do? You become close to my enemy even though you know how much I f-__-king h@ťě him!”
Kris wiped his bursted lips.
“Tell me, one reason why I should h@ťě him when he hasn’t done anything wrong” He said.
“Forget it” Kelly folded his fist and entered the house,running into Cody who seems to have been listening to their convo.
He almost hide but Kelly saw him and grab him, pulling him into a corner.
“W….what if someone sees us?” Cody stuttered.
“Do I look like I care? I’m running out of patience already. We’re executing out plan tomorrow,at the concert” Kelly said.
“What plan?” Cody ask fearfully.
“Ending Ricky’s life…..” Kelly replied.
“What?” Cody’s eyes widened.
•••
•NEXT DAY•UNKNOWN LOCATION•
“Come in” Tanya said pulling Cody into the uncompleted building.
“Why do you bring me here?” Cody ask looking around.
“Just come with me and stop asking questions” Tanya rolled her eyes.
She took him to a room and Cody’s eyes widened when he saw Vivian on a sick bed, looking so weak and pale.
“Vivian!” He almost rushed to her but Tanya pulled her back.
“Are you crazy?” She yelled.
“I want to talk to her……” Cody said pitifully.
“You can’t, what if Kelly comes here and find out? You really think she won’t tell on you. That girl though Kelly is her brother and not you idiot!” Tanya spat.
Cody eyes widened.
“What?”
“I can’t go into the full details, all I know is he manipulate her into believing he’s you. I only brought you here cos I want you to trust me I’m on your side” Tanya patted him.
“What do you want me to do?” Cody ask in tears.
“Let’s get rid of both Lily and Kelly together….” Tanya smirked.

•ROSES&PETALS•
“Guess what?” Lily smiled.
“What?” Amelia faced her.
Lily brought out two MP ticket and hand her one with her name on it.
“What is this?” Amelia ask uninterested.
“Isn’t it obvious? Ricky gave me two for free, so I’m giving you one”
“Don’t you dare say no, I’m sure you wanna see Trace on stage for the first time” Lily smiled.
Amelia mind went to the kiss they shared last night and blush secretly.
“Are you blushing right now?” Lily smirked.
“No… I’m not, and I’m not going to the concert” She dropped the ticket,adjusting her hair…
“It’s obvious you wanna attend, so drop the act”
“I’m really not interested” Amelia said.
“Is something going on between you and Trace?” Lily grinned.
“No!” Amelia replied rather quickly.
“Why pretending? It’s petty obvious,do you like him?”
“No I don’t” Amelia blinked and walk away.
“She’s really not good in lieing” Lily laughed.
“I know right, her face is making it more obvious” Ms. Rosemary said from behind her.
Lily turned to her.
“When did you get here?” She ask surprisedly.
“Just recently, I’ve a favor to ask” Ms. Rose added.
“What is it?” Lily inquired, wondering what the favor is about. This is the first time she’d be asking her for something.
“Help Amelia discovered her feelings, she’s being hard on herself because of her dad’s maltreatment and think every other guy are like that. I wish she could find true love” Ms. Rose said sadly.
Lily was lost for a moment, her mind floated with questions.
Since when did Mrs. Rosemary care about Amelia so much. The last time she remembered.
She would only tease them about it and not meddle.
“Lily” Mrs. Rose called.
“Of course, I’ll do just that… Trust me, Mrs Rose” Lily smiled,still confused.

•A CONCERT HALL•NIGHT•
The crowd roared with excitement as the lights went down and the stage lit up with a brilliant array of colors.
The first few notes of “To You The One,” the latest single from moon light pitch, reverberated through the room.
The band took the stage, their energy palpable as they began to play.
The whole members belted out the lyrics with such passion that it was impossible not to be swept up in the moment.
It was as if the entire building was pulsing with the music, vibrating with the energy of the crowd, everyone in the audience was along for the ride to the lyrics.
Crazy how the song just released,and their fans already knew the lyrics.
Lily managed to get the front spot and she eventually convinced Amelia into going with her
Lily was jamming to the song energetically like a proud girlfriend she is while Amelia was looking uninterested but still can’t take her eyes off Trace on stage.
He was looking so hot in the center and her heart was pounding in her chest,she would even blush if their eyes coincidentally met.
The final note of the song faded out, and the crowd erupted into a deafening cheer.
“Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone! We’re happy to be here.” Kris said to the microphone.
The band members gave each other a quick nod, then turned towards the audience.
“Alright, let’s do some Q&A,” Trace said, and the crowd erupted into another round of cheers.
“What’s your favorite song to perform?” someone shouted from the back.
“Well, that’s a tough question!” Trace laughed.
“Every song is special to us in its own way. But if I had to pick one, I’d say it’s ‘To You The One.’ That song has a special meaning for us.”
“Why is that?” someone else called out.
“It was the first song we wrote together as a band, so it has a special place in our hearts” Trace replied.
“It’s also about finding that one person who makes your world complete. I think everyone can relate to that” Kelly said.
The crowd nodded and murmured in agreement.
“Ricky, Do you have a girlfriend?” a girl shouted from the back enough that anyone could hear.
“Why would you ask that? You know it’s against our rules” Kris replied Instead.
“I’ve been a fan of yours since grade 9. You’ve been such an inspiration to me. I’ve grown up listening to your music and watching you on stage. Now that I’m in grade 12, I’m going to be graduating soon and I was hoping you could wait for me.” The girl said, her voice filled with emotions.
🗣️ Awwwn!!!
🗣️ She’s cute!! Don’t turn her off please Ricky!
🗣️ Say yes to her!
Lily almost ki|| the girl with a h@ťěful glare from where she stood, Ricky saw it and almost laugh.
The girl was still looking up at Ricky with pleading eyes, everyone anticipating for his answer.
Ricky just gave her a kind smile and took the microphone.
“I’m honored that you’re such a dedicated fan….but….
“Don’t say it!” Kris whispered to his hearing.
“I’ve someone I love so much and she’s here right before me…..” Ricky introduced and everyone eyes widened together with Lily own.
👥 What the f-__-k?
Immediately he said that, a loud gunshot interrupted and… Someone went flat on the floor with blood oozing from his head…
One of the members has been shot in the head…..
