"What!" Grace cried in disbelief, eyes turning to the screen. There, she saw her boyfriend collapsed in a heap on the stage, Namjoon and Jin alerting the other members and began running to him. Grace's heart pounded and she dashed out onto stage. The audience was murmuring, wondering what had happened and wanting to know if Jungkook was okay.

"Help me get the jacket off of him!" Grace shouted, shooing away some of the back up dancers. "Namjoon, Yoongi. Help me!" Grace took charge while they waited for medical personnel to arrive.

Jungkook was in terrible shape. His face was flushed dark red and sweat dripped down his skin. He was sweating so much that his hair stuck to his face. Grace was struggling to stay calm, her heart filled with worry for him. She had noticed he'd been pushing himself harder recently. But it was excessive and unnecessary because he had already perfected his moves. She had said as much to him, confiding in him about her concerns. But he immediately reassured Grace he was fine. Despite her uncertainty, she let the matter go, simply telling him to stay hydrated and make sure he was getting plenty of rest.

Now Grace realized he overworked himself to the point his body just gave up. She was brought back to reality when Jungkook groaned as he began to stir. "He's coming to." Grace removed his jacket and instructed Namjoon and Yoongi to help get him backstage. Taehyung took this time to speak to the audience and alleviate their fears.

"I'm so hot." Jungkook moaned pitifully.

"Water! Somebody get him so water! Fast!" Jimin shouted and an assistant dashed away.

"I know, Jungkook, I know." Grace's heart ached for him, seeing him grimace in pain.

Minji and Jisoo held handheld battery-powered fans to Jungkook's face while Hoseok flapped Jungkook's shirt up and down to give him air circulation. Jungkook's muscles began cramping up from dehydration. That was when medical personnel came onto the scene and took over. "Out of the way! Out of the way please! We can take this from here." Two people hooked Jungkook up to an oxygen mask and finally Jungkook could breathe properly.

They gave him some water and he drank deeply. "Thanks." He gasped, panting heavily and handed the bottle back.

"I'm sorry to break this up but we need to keep this show going." Their manager reluctantly ushered the girls away. "I need you guys to go out there and perform better than if this hadn't happened."

"But what about Jungkook?" Faith questioned, not understanding like the rest of them.

"We'll keep an eye on him. We can't just halt an entire show. People paid a lot of money to come to this and it would be disrespectful to cancel it."

In spite of their misgivings, they walked out on stage and told the audience Jungkook was doing fine and recovering currently. "We have decided to continue with the show since you guys sacrificed a lot to be here." Yunji informed them before the lights dimmed and the girls went to their places. They were going to first be performing Moonlight Sunrise, Basics, and Left Right from their album 'Summer Nights'.

Yunji's voice was heard through the darkness, "Oh yeah. I guarantee I got ya." right as the lights went on.

"I've been craving for your love. Can't see nobody but us. So I, so I, so I." Dari danced in the middle as Abby and Grace placed their hands on her hips.

Abby moved to the side and they all went into a diagonal behind her. "See you from across the room, make my way over to you. I'm trippin' over butterflies."
