“Appaaaa!” cheered Myungsoo's three-year-old daughter, Hyerin. She threw her hands in the air, gripping tightly to a spoon that spilled cereal all over the table. She crunched and smiled as her mother promptly wiped the table and her face.      Sitting next to Hyerin was her little brother, Kyungsan. Only six months old, Kyungsan greeted Myungsoo with a toothless smile, mumbling nonsense and spilling mashed banana all over his bib. Myungsoo laughed at the

Sometimes, the thing that stops us from reaching out to someone is worrying that they won't take us seriously. Sometimes, we worry of burdening another with our own problems, believing that we should endure them on our own. Sometimes, we keep it a secret from those we are closest to, in fear of rejection - in fear of making things worse.

      “—soo… Myungsoo!”       Myungsoo groaned and rolled over, completely ignoring whoever it was that was patting his arm.       “Myungsoo-ah!”       “What?” Myungsoo asked flatly, refusing to open his eyes. He could recognize the voice now; it belonged to Sungyeol.       “Did we have a schedule today?” asked Sungyeol. Something about his tone sounded nervous. Myungsoo forced his half-asleep mind to remember what day it was. But it was no use.

For Halloween, you and Sungjong had decided to explore the local amusement park's holiday special. One of the attractions included a real mansion, decorated to look as though it were truly haunted. Not only was the haunted mansion an attraction, but a labyrinth as well. Finding your way through the mansion was not your only objective; You were also there to uncover the mystery as to who was haunting the mansion, and why.

       “And tomorrow may have the relief we’ve been waiting for, folks! Instead of downpour, the weather calls for cloudy skies and a bit of drizzle. Now back to you!”      “Thank you! I’d suggest keeping an umbrella with you anyway, but that’s just my opinion! [Laughs] And now for a sports update—”      You sipped on your bowl of soup and

It was ten minutes before Infinite was due to perform on stage. The members frantically prepared themselves in the waiting room, warming up their voices, practicing their dance moves, and rehearsing their lines. You sat with Sungjong, Woohyun and Dongwoo, and looked around for Myungsoo. Everyone was there except him. You had hoped to see him before the performance, wanting to wish him good luck.

It was 2:37AM, and practice had just ended. You and the CEO were watching carefully as the Infinite members had finished their last round of Destiny routines. Satisfied with their performance, the members began packing their things to go home. Everything seemed normal to you, until you noticed Sunggyu in the corner of the room. He was bent over and coughing violently.

"Do you see the way he looks at her?" "Yeah, it makes me sick."

The morning in Seoul started out just like any other for Woohyun. He got up at 6:15 to prepare for school. He showered, he packed his lunch, he double-checked his homework, and he left the house at exactly 6:45. On his daily route, Woohyun said hello to the neighborhood cat that sat on the fence every morning. It looked at him with expectancy, as he reached in to his pocket. He took out some cat treats, and pet the cat as it ate out of his hand. Nothing was out

      It was the middle of July, seemingly the hottest time of the year, and you and Hoya had taken a vacation to one of Korea’s best water parks: Caribbean Bay! It was the perfect way to fight off the heat. Although it was sure to be crowded at this time of the year, neither of you were opposed to going… So long as Hoya didn’t have to ride anything too intense.      “Hoya, where’s the fun in that?” you whined a

“Gyuuu,” you whined, “I want to go out!” "What’s wrong with staying in?" he asked, legs stretched out on the couch. You had sat down on the floor in an attempt to make him feel sorry for you and move his legs, but it didn’t work. It was Friday night, and you were looking forward to doing something fun with Sunggyu before the week was out. "Come on! It’s the weekend, don’t you want to go out and have fun or something?" you nagged. "Why would I want to go out and have f

     You stood outside Woollim Entertainment and glanced at the time on your phone. It read 5:52 AM. It felt much too early for a Saturday, and you wondered how it was possible for anyone to spend their Saturday morning at work this early willingly.      You glided down the steps leading to Infinite’s practice room and entered. Silently shutting the door behind you, your eyes met with Woohyun’s and you pressed a finger to your lips.      Most of

"Myungsoo, what is it?" you asked. The two of you were sitting side-by-side, but he wasn't saying a word. He just played with your hands, flipping them in his and squeezing them gently. He kept looking at you as if he wanted to say something, but whenever your eyes met his, he looked away. "I was thinking," he began, "we've been together for a few months now, and I was just wondering if..." his voice trailed off, and you looked at him curiously. He stopped

Ding-dong! "Ah, now who could that be?" you asked yourself as you heard the doorbell ring. You scuffled through a path in your room that formed itself amidst the clutter. This was not good timing at all. You were so busy over the past few weeks that you hadn’t had time to clean your room. Since today was your free day, that was exactly what you were doing. You opened the door and were surprised to see a handsome face staring back at you.

                                                                 (5:37 PM) "Sorry I’m late," you panted as you caught up with Myungsoo at a local shopping center. You ran there, not realizing the time until just ten minutes beforehand. "It’s okay, are you all right?" he asked, looking worried. "Yeah, I’m fine. I just lost track of time, that’s all." Myungsoo smiled and patted your head. He asked you to wait at a bench as he ducked i

Please remember to read the "Foreword" section below, or else it will start off choppy! - The story takes place before Lee Howon was known as Infinite's "Hoya". - This is about how Lee Howon inevitably falls for his dance instructor (You). - There are multiple chapters, which switch off between Hoya's point of view and yours. ~Feedback is welcome!~ CHAPTER KEY:

"Wow, we're finally here. I can't believe it!" you shouted, running to the shore, "The ocean's huge!" Myungsoo chuckled, watching your excitement, but his expression changed once he took a look at the sea. "The waves look kind of strong today. Are you sure it's okay to go swimming?" He asked. "What are you talking about? That's part of the fun!" You grabbed his hand, pulling him toward the water. "I know, but... Just be careful, okay?" He scratch

-Monday, 3:15PM- "Are you sure you can't get time off?" asked Myungsoo. He was asking his girlfriend if there was some way the two of them could get together on Thursday for their anniversary. "I'm sure. I asked, but we're swamped. We can always celebrate on Saturday," she suggested. "I guess we'll have to. I miss you." said Myungsoo with a smile, although she couldn't see it. "I

"Good morning, jagi~" Sungyeol said as he gently shook you awake. You made a sound of agitation, and he laughed at your sleepy face. "You need to get up, or else you’ll be late."

       “Look, there’s a park!” Sungyeol pointed at the nearby playground where children shouted cheerfully at each other. He looked at you with a wide grin on his face, and you shook your head. “What? Come on, it’ll be fun!” He nagged.        “Sungyeol, we’re not five years old,” you laughed, but while you were shaking your head, you found yourself following him toward the playground.  

It was an unusually cool summer evening, which was a nice change from the intense heat that occurred throughout the day. Sunggyu took it as an opportunity to spend some much-needed time with you. Ever since Infinite's comeback, the hours of practice had taken up all of his free time, causing the two of you to drift apart. You had been wanting to see him for a while now, and he had constan

"So, you got any special plans for tonight?" your friend asked you as your work shift ended. "What do you mean?" you asked. "What do you mean, 'what do I mean'? For Valentine's, silly!" she answered. "Oh. I don't know, I was thinking of spending the night in and watching a movie," you responded. It had been a long day at work, so you had completely forgotten it was Valentine's Day.

*:・ﾟ A kiss in the snow with Sunggyu! *:・ﾟ

"Are you ready, jagi?" asked Sunggyu. "How can I be ready? These are your parents! I might as well be meeting the president!" you said as you raced across the room. You frantically adjusted your clothes and pat down your hair at the same time while studying the mirror. Sunggyu chuckled and placed a hand on your shoulder. "You’ll be fine, I promise." He smiled at you through the reflection.

After a stressful day, you ask Sunggyu to sing you a lullaby before bed.

     “Good luck at work today, honey,” you smiled as you handed Sungyeol his shoes and bag lunch. You knew he had a special meeting to get to today, and even though he woke up early, he was still running late.      “Yah, why are you rushing me out the door?” he managed to ask while holding the bag between his teeth and hopping on one foot as he struggled to put on his shoes.      “Don’t you have an important meeting today?” you reminded him, straightening

                                                                 (7:30 PM)  *ding dong~* You opened the door in a flash, surprising the guy standing there. He squinted at you with a judgmental pout. "Were you waiting by the door this whole time?" "Don’t be silly, Sunggyu. I’m just excited!" "Excited for what? You don’t even know what we’re doing." He replied as you grabbed your house keys. "Yes, but I know that as l
