Do you know how nice imagination is? Like you are another person, and you watch the sky and you feel as if you never want to get up again?

Foreword

Do you know how nice it feels just to watch the night sky and think of nothing? Can you imagine? Or have you already tried? Just watching, switching off all thoughts in the head, lying, feeling the earths heartbeat below. And now, imagine, not being alone while doing this. Imagine two people next to you, two people you have enclosed deep in your heart. They might not be what they seem like and you might neither, but the important thing is you being together.
Anyways, this thing just happens in imagination, or better, in a dream. It's the dream of Kris. Kris, the tall guy who seems so self-reliant and strong to the outside, the one who likes to be alone. Or maybe seems to like being alone? He doesn't like to talk about his wishes and dreams. He only shares his thoughts when necessary. Actually he only shares them when it affects work. His work is about being. He is a singer and dancer in a known boygroup. The group is divided in two groups, each singing in another language. Kris is a leader, he has to take care of one of these two parts. He likes learning new things and improve his skills (for example by reading books). Knowing about not being good enough yet he practices every single day, when they aren't shooting anything. No breaks except for eating, he dances and sings 18 hours of the day. Or maybe its even more. For stuff like going out or dating there's no time. He needs to take care of other people and he needs to take care of himself. If he doesn't succeed, what will happen to him?

Now imagine you're watching the sky, but there aren't any stars. It's slowly getting dark, but you still won't see the stars, they're hidden behind clouds. The precious people are still next to you. You're another person now. The other ones are different, too. Just imagine, the people are still the same but you are in another body, you have different thoughts, a different character but yet you can love. Or at least something like that. Probably slightly different. But those people you're watching the sky with, you don't want to lose them, you want to hold them tightly and never let go.
Still this is a dream. It's the dream of Tao. He always seems serious and silent, and he is. But there's a side on him that is funny and cute. A friendly side that isn't played and that is sincere. It's not like he doesn't like that side on him, it's more like he is afraid to show it. He isn't able to show it. It reminds him of his past and his past is what he wants to forget. There were happy days, days he could laugh and play, but he doesn't even want to think about them. If he does, he will start do chew his own childhood over and over. And over. Nothing good is to gain from that. Like bad experiences, hard work, no love, maybe some little pieces of happiness. Every time to be happy turning in something bad. Tao is sick of that. He never wants to have to think about such things again.
Tao is in the same group as Kris. He doesn't trust him too much yet. At least that's what he thinks. Anyway, he works as hard as him, for similar reasons. Tao practices to forget the past and find something new and Kris tries to fulfill his past with the present. Kris tries to achieve something he doesn't know yet, while Tao just tries to forget. Both live forward, towards the future. What will such imaginations lead to..

Still, imagine lying on a fresh meadow, smelling like spring, and watching the sky. It's getting morning slowly. First you see the heaven getting lighter and the stars that started to appear while the clouds were floating away, then, the sun shows up. With your eyes wide open, you stare at it fascinated. The one thing that makes life possible. You start to smile not visible to others but on the inside. For the others you're smiling all the time anyway. This time again, actors have changed.
And it's again just a dream, a wish, an imagination. Chen, member of the same group but being there for very different reasons. He likes to dream and he likes to work. He isn't as obsessed as the other two. Dreams, things he likes, that's what he lives for. That's what he pursuits. For him, life is the pursuit of happiness. But more like the happiness he already has. Maybe there's a special reason for him, being in the same place, the same room, the same group, the same world, the same universe as Kris and Tao. Probably. And maybe there's a reason for him to fell like he has to care for the other two..and a reason why he feels attracted to them.
