Pre-Wedding Concierto

It was a night of brilliance and dazzles in the capital. Tonight, many flocked into La Amandra Theater to witness the performance of Feather. After the announcement of her engagement to Hawk, her production team decided to stage a pre-wedding concierto for her. As she was a very much celebrated ballerina, the streets in front of La Amandra theater were in chaos. Fans flocked together to show their support to Feather and even though many amongst the fans cannot afford to buy a ticker, they still went to the theater just to have a glimpse of what was going to happen tonight. Besides, many celebrities and big personalities walked through the theater's front gate and so fans can have a free viewing of them.

Inside the theater, everyone was seated comfortably in their respective seats. Just another level up from the ground seat where the boxes, all of which were reserved for the VIP clients. On the front left side of the stage was the box reserved for Hawk and he was there already thirty minutes before the scheduled time. Everyone from the ground seat could perfectly see and gaped open freely upon the youngest billionaire and they all agreed he looked extra marvelous tonight provided the fact that this conceirto was dedicated to him.

When the lights went off, everyone quieted. In the dark, the first thing that welcomed the guest was a very sweet aroma that came from nowhere, of course they all knew it was part of the act because as soon as the aroma scattered around, a light slow music went along with it. Few minutes later the music went steady and from the stage you could already see a light that hosted ballet dancers doing a welcome routine.

Feather then was already at the back stage, standing calmly at one corner while her glam team did few finishing touches. She must do good today as this was the first time Hawk was to watch her dance as his fiancee. Few weeks ago someone sent a prank gift to her and she admitted that for a moment it got her too paranoid. However, seeing that she was on every headline for the past few days because of her upcoming wedding and Conceirto, all the stress went away. Besides, her mother already promised she'd deal with it and she knew she could. She had proven her usefulness too many times already.

"You are all set Miss," Her main makeup artist concluded after giving her one final look. "As usual you are ever beautiful. Almost as perfect,"

"Thanks," Her replied to the compliment and immediately dismissed her glam team by a hand cue which they all understood. Feather ever since had never acknowledged their presence, except for the main makeup artist. The rest, they can only hear her talk when she nagged about how ugly or complacent their work was. Most of the time, she only gave them hand cue's to indicate that she's already satisfied with their jobs.

"Ami?" She called for Ami this time.

Her assistant ran toward her immediately. Although she committed a huge mistake worthy of being fired, Feather luckily didn't push it through which she was glad of course. Truth was, there were many times that Feather wanted to fire Ami but apart from anyone else she's the only one who was faithful to her. Also she always has a hard time finding any other assistants because the previous one she hired to replace Ami only lasted a day or two.

"Yes Miss?" Ami answered as soon as she's in front of her. "Do you need anything?"

"Is President Hawk here already?" Feather asked excitedly.

"Yes Miss. He was early and was looking very handsome. He must have spent the whole day preparing for tonight," Ami answered and told her own observations.

"Good," Feather let go of a satisfactory smile. "I'll give him a performance he will never ever forget,"

"That's the spirit Miss!" Ami cheered for her.

All of the junior dancers on the stage were very fun and satisfying to watch. Their movements were all synchronized and harmoniously choreographed. Hawk wasn't really that interested in ballet previously, not until he met the ballerina in Somerset village. He still remembers the first time he saw her dance, it was so mesmerizing that for one moment he thought he was dancing with her in a heavenly realm. Tonight, as he watched his fiancee dance, perhaps that same old feeling will come out again. He had seen many of Feather's performances abroad, in fact as the time he got the money to afford it, he never missed any single concert of her but then, all those times, that old feeling upon seeing her dance never came out again. Perhaps it was because they weren't reconnected yet. Ever since Hawk was able to raise a name for his own, he had always wanted to reconnect with the Han's heiress but he was afraid that by then he might not be able to control himself anymore and his uncontrollable devotion and desire for her would make her gave up her dream to become a successful ballerina. He wanted her to fulfill her dream first that's why he waited for long until she finally got what she dreamed off. Tonight will be the first time he will watch Feather dance as his woman and he sure was very much looking forward to that.

While Hawk was immense in his thoughts and while the preliminary performances were still going on, Hawk's ears captured something more interesting. It was the sound of high heeled shoes ticking louder enough to go above the orchestra music. The tickling of the shoe resounded together with the beat of his heart as if his very own flesh was ultimately attracted to it. Hawk's heart tightened and he let go of a desperate sigh just to release the tension that started to unfold within him.

"Who's there?" Hawk asked as it seemed that the steps he heard stopped just right at the curtain of his box. He also turned his head from the stage to the curtain behind him, ready to welcome an intruding visitor.

Just when the curtain flew open, Hawk's heart leaped out from his chest.
