Foreword

" Myungsoo closed the door as softly as he could behind him. All the six other members should be sound asleep this late into the night, and Myungsoo didn't want to rob them of their time to get some shut-eye. They needed it--all of them did. Being an idol was a fun, but tiring job.

His schedule had ended particularly late that night--it was past two in the morning right now--and Myungsoo felt drained. He'd have to wake up early tomorrow too, for a whole new day of schedules. Myungsoo groaned softly to himself, and tumbled into bed, not bothering to change, or wash up, or pull the covers over himself.

He stared at the dark ceiling for a while. It was nice that he was in demand and all to be on screen, and he enjoyed his popularity to be quite honest--but sometimes, it was lonely falling asleep by himself. Myungsoo sighed, and his side.

The mattress sank down behind him, and hands more familiar than his own dragged another duvet over him, tucked him in nice and snug. The corners of Myungsoo's mouth twitched upwards, even as his eyelids slid lower and lower, and sleep made his mind all fuzzy.

"You waited for me?" Myungsoo's voice was muffled with sleepiness. An arm was thrown over him, and the warm body behind him pressed up close and made Myungsoo felt so content, so cozy. He lifted his hand to trace lazy circles on the hand that rested on his side.

"No," Sungyeol's breath ghosted over Myungsoo's neck as he tried stifling the third yawn since he'd laid down next to Myungsoo, "I felt too wide awake to go to sleep."

Both fell asleep smiling.  "

Myungyeol seems to have gotten their happy ending, their happily-ever-after. They've stuck together, auditioned, and become trainees together with the rest of infinite, and are now a successfully debuted idol group, just as Hoya had dreamed for them to be.

But what happens after the last words of the story have been read, the last page of the book turned? Does it really end there? What happens after happy-ever-afters? They can't really just ride off into the sunset in each other's arms, for ever and ever, can they?

That's right. They don't.

Myungsoo and Sungyeol are about to find out that the carriage ride towards the pretty setting sun isn't all as smooth as it seems. There are the misunderstandings, the arguments and suspicions--little bumps along the road to throw them about inside their ride. And of course, there's trust and love (and maybe some steamy make-up sessions) too, to help cushion the jolts.

Haven't you ever wondered what happens after happy-ever-afters?
