I was sitting in a dressing room with other people as well as staff members. I was nervous I couldn't stop my leg from bouncing. My thumb nail was in my mouth as I slightly bit it.

"Serenity why don't you go get some air to clear your head."

I nod as I get up, leave the room and head towards a different area of the building. I was sitting near the vending machines, I couldn't stop fidgeting from my nerves. I've never been good or liked being the center of attention. My anxiety was starting to get worse I felt like I couldn't breathe. I couldn't focus. I felt hands holding mine and could barely hear a voice asking if I was fine. I felt like I was underwater, the voice was telling to breathe in hold and breathe out. That underwater feeling goes away and I can finally focus as well as understand what is being said to me. Blinking I notice the person holding my hands is a male, I was trying to but a name to the person in front of me. I know he is my senior.

"Are you alright?"
"Uh, Yes thank you"

He gives me a smile

"Can I know why you were panicking?"
"I think it's because of my debut."
"Ah your debuting today?"

I nod, looking down I notice that he hasn't let go of my hands

"Is it a group or solo debut?"
"Solo"
"Hmm"

Another man comes towards the vending machines

"Leeteuk you have to come"

I finally have a name to the face and now I'm even more worried because the man who helped me is my senior from a well known group

"Heechul give me a few"

Heechul sees what's going on and comes over.

"What happened?"
"She was having a panic attack when I came by."

They kept talking back and forth till my manager came looking for me

"Serenity it's time to come back."

I nod my head and I'm helped to stand up by Leeteuk, I get to my manager's side before bowing to the two of them. I still am slightly nervous. My manager was making sure I was fine. I was getting hooked up to an in ear monitor as well as being told what to expect. I was led to the edge of the stage of the show. I felt like I was being watched, turning I saw that it was both Heechul and Leeteuk. I give both of them a small smile. I was told to go up on stage while the lights are off, taking breaths to calm myself. I thought of everything but was is happening right now. The lights turn on just as the music started
