Ricky Lim, the enigmatic half-Korean, half-Chinese heartthrob, stood confidently on stage, his voice soaring as he belted out Moonlight Pitch's hit song. As the main vocalist, most followed member, and visual of the group, Ricky's captivating presence electrified the crowd. Yet, despite his fame, Ricky's face remained a mystery, hidden behind a mask that sparked both curiosity and intrigue. Only his parents had ever seen his unmasked face, and the world could only speculate about the secrets he kept hidden. Some whispered that his breathtaking handsomeness could leave fans weak in the knees, while others wondered if there was more to the mask than met the eye. In a world where idols were worshipped, Ricky's mystique had captivated the hearts of millions. Among them was Lily Campbell, a bright-eyed 21-year-old who had been hopelessly devoted to Ricky since Moonlight Pitch's debut. Little did she know, their lives were about to intersect in unexpected ways...

Chapter 1 Crazy Over Ricky

CALIFORNIA,CAMPBELL APARTMENT••9AM>

The blaring sound of the alarm ringing on the bedstand was enough to wake up any normal human but not Lily Campbell.

The alarm clock had been ringing for half an hour now, but Lily still hasn't woken up. It's almost as if she's in a deep sleep and the alarm can't penetrate it.

Curled in the bed with the duvet covering only her legs, snoring gently. She hugged tightly to the pillow with her lips spread thin to a smile every minutes.

She was obviously dreaming of a future impossible with her idol crush,Ricky Lim.

Her room was covered with his photos, you could barely see a vacant spot on the wall. Both Ricky's photoshoot, selfies,unawares pics. She had them all. Her room was the human version of Pinterest.

Her door flung opened and Rowena marched with a spatula in her hand. Her eyes turned red immediately she saw Lily still sleeping on the bed despite the alarm that was still ringing.

The alarm was still blaring,but Lily didn't even stir.

Rowena walked over to the bedside table and turned off the alarm.

"You little brat! Do you know what time it is! Get the hell out of there!" She screamed loudly,that definitely woke her but she pretended not to hear her voice,she only changed position and continue sleeping.

Rowena spanked her butt and Lily jolted from her sleep.

"Mom!!" She whined, holding her head as if she was about to cry.

"Why are you such a joykill? I was just about to kiss Ricky just now. We went on a date and--"

"You silly girl!" Rowena slapped her head and she fell on the bed,pouting.

That's thier daily routine,nagging and fight.

"Get your àss into bathroom right now and wash up! Rudy is waiting for you!" Rowena said and start walking out of the room,her eyes scanned her walls, she's definitely sure she got another picture of Ricky.

"Geez,how can someone be so obsessed. Does she even know much about herself like she does for this guy?" Rowena mumbled as she left.

Lily sat up,her facial expression was like she would cry anytime from now. She looked the pictures that was all around the room and she burst into tears.

"I can't meet you in real life,when I finally get the chance to see you in my dream, my mom always be the obstacle I have to face. Ricky! I love you!!!" She screamed crying dramatically.

She kissed Ricky's eyes before grabbing her towel,she left for the bathroom.

When she's done,she wore her normal skirt and a yellow crop top,if there's anything she's going obsessed with,it's would be skirt. She doesn't wear dress.

"Bye baby! See you tonight!" She waved to the portrait and left for the living room.

She met Rowena eating at the dinner table with Rudy.

"Guess who is not dead? Your ride or die" Lily gushed and immediately place a wet kiss on Rudy's cheek quickly.

"Eeew!" Rudy sighed and wipe his cheek,he tried pushing her off but she remain sticked to him like a glue.

Rudy has been her best friend since elementary,she doesn't keep female friend,she never had one,Rudy has always been enough for her,they have been together almost thier whole life,that left a lot of people refusing to believe they never dated or one never had a crush on the other.

"A little compliment might help you in a situation like this" She blinked cutely.

"Fine! You're the prettiest girl in the world" Rudy said and she let go of him.

"Awwn, I'll never believe that's coming out from you" She rolled her eyes and sat down.

Rowena shooked her head and got up,she left for the kitchen.

"Did I hear that right? You're moving out?" Rudy suddenly asked.

Lily said nothing.

"Why do you wanna move out" Rudy asked again.

Rowena came back into the dinner room,she dropped more macaroons for Rudy and sat down.

"Why do you always have to prove you love him more than your own daughter?" Lily glared at her.

"Can you convince her not to move out? She's really stubborn! I dunno what to do with her anymore" Rowena said to Rudy.

Lily dropped her cutleries and looked at them both.

"To answer to your question,It's time I get an apartment of my own. It's been on my mind for a while and I already saved up for the apartment, I even found one. But I was contemplating, but not anymore. Lily you're 21! It's time to move out!" She flipped her hair backward, adjusting on the chair as she stared at nothing in particular.

Rowena slapped Lily's shoulder.

"Ouch! Mom! That hurts!" Lily whined rubbing the spot.

"You ungrateful thing! Who said you could move out? Huh!" Rowena slapped her again and Lily stood up holding her shoulder.

"Exactly why I'm moving out. My shoulders have gone smiled coz you're always hitting them. And you would never let me kiss Ricky! I need my own piece of mind as well!" Lily half yelled.

"You crazy girl!" Rowena gritted,grabbing the glass of juice on the table,Lily immediately his behind Rudy.

"Let's just go" She quickly grab Rudy's hand and drag him out.

The studio was filled with the clicking of cameras and the whirring of lights. Ricky stood in the center of the room,surrounded by the photographers and crew who were working on the photoshoot.

He was dressed in a sleek suit,and his hair was perfectly styled. He looked confident and at ease as he posed for the cameras.

But it wasn't just his appearance that was captivating. There was something about him that's make everyone love him.

As the photographers continued to snap pictures, the workers couldn't help but stop and stare at him,even though they saw him every day,he still felt like they are seeing him for the first time.

The fact that everything he did,he's always like an angel in the eyes of many.

"When will Ricky be done with his shoot?" Kris pulled down his headphones and turned to his other members. They other members are in the studio next to where the photoshoot is going on.

They are rehearsing for tonight's concert.

"10 more minutes!" Trace replied and strummed the strings of his guitar.

"Who the f*ck make a masked guy a successful brand ambassador,what were they even thinking?" Kelly scoffed glaring at Ricky with so much hates.

"Stop it Kelly! I don't want another argument,we should be thinking of our concert tonight!" Kris said his eyes not leaving his phone.

"I know you'll surely defend him" Kelly hissed and walked out.

"Why's he always like that? Gosh!" Cody scoffed from where he's laying down.

Minutes later,Ricky came into studio,he's already changed but still with his mask as usual.

"I'm sorry for the delay,can we start now?" He asked casually.

"Of course,it's fine" Kris grinned and rush to him.

Cody and Trace nodded without a word.

"And what's so fine about him delaying us? Even though we're a band,we should learn to respect who's older here" Kelly said coming in.

"Seriously? Not like he had a choice" Kris scoffed and drop his headphone.

"I'm not talking to you,mind your own business! Is he dumb? He's only blind right?" Kelly shouted angrily.

"What?" The rest member gasped.

"Am I wrong? If not,why hide his face for the world even us?" Kelly scoffed.

"That's enough! Let's start,we have less than 8 hours before...

"Practice on your own, I'm out of here" Kelly hissed and walk out.

"Don't worry about him! He's always like that anyway" Kris patted him. Ricky shrugged and Kris immediately drop his hand.
