Living in a viciously boring cycle of tips and refills, a young waitress finds herself being pulled headfirst into the world of sex, drugs, and rock & roll.
With an unexpected turn of events, Lyla embarks on a journey with the three handsome men fro...

Rushing down from the stage after playing another sold-out show, all three of them come to greet me with a kiss on my cheek before grabbing bottles of chilled water and plopping down on whatever available chair they can find closest to them. Their hair stuck to their foreheads except for Jungkook's who has his pulled back for the night just the way his fans seemed to like it; the way I, too, liked it even if he didn't know that little detail. The sweat trickles down his temple and along his neck as he gulps down the bottle of water in one take.
Hoseok comes into the room, clapping his hands and giving his praises to them for doing such an amazing job, even giving me a wink and a smile that I happily accept. Announcing that this is the last show for the week, allowing the guys to get a small break before their next destination, I realize that L.A. is where we'll be staying put for a little while. Even though they'll be breaking from touring, they'll still have work to do in the studio from time to time and interviews lined up.
However, this does make me happy that they can at least settle down and regain their energy before continuing on again.
As per usual, the security lets in the chosen group of girls that are allowed backstage and I don't even lift my head when I hear them make their entrance. I'm not bothered by them or anything ludicrous like that, it's not my place to be, they just don't intrigue me like they used to. In fact, they kind of annoy me tonight.
That is... until one of them calls my name.
"Lyla?"
My head pops up with my brows furrowed as I try to figure out who knows me back here, "Lennon?"
It's the same girl from the show I attended when all of this started not that long ago. Smiling at her, I get up from my seat next to Taehyung and accept the hug she's offering to me. Leaning back, I take a look at her, admiring the effort she put into her makeup and outfit for the concert tonight.
"How'd you get back here so quickly?" She questions as she holds my hand above my head, making me spin around as she looks me over with a grin.
Giggling, I look over to Tae before answering, "Well, uh..."
"You two know each other?" He asks as he comes to stand next to us, the other girls that were allowed backstage find their way to Jungkook and Jimin as they begin to converse amongst each other.
"Well, she helped me get up to the barricade the night I met you guys." Looking at him, he studies my expression for a second before looking at her again.
"Nice to officially meet you. Lennon, was it?" He holds out a hand for hers.
Giggling like the fangirl she is, she places her hand in his and watches as he kisses the back of her hand; his gaze on me the entire time. Looking back at her, she tucks her shoulder-length black hair behind her ear and shifts from one foot to the other. That's when it dawns on me that this is her first time ever backstage.
