담아뒀던 진심을 다 얘기할게요
우리가 처음 만난 그 날 기억 하나요
예쁜 그 입술로 내게 웃어주던
그날 이후로 난 다짐했어요
절대 내 품에서 그댈 놓기 싫다고

그래도 오늘 난 고백할게요
I wanna be with you
항상 그대 한 걸음 뒤엔

@Lorenacojita
She opened the old book, forgotten in a corner, and felt her body leaving reality, transported in to a fairy tale where everything was possible.
She found herself standing on a staircase in a crowded room with people dressed up with antique costumes, dancing to classical music that filled the room as the moonlight streaming through the windows. It was beautiful.
Unconsciously she looked at herself, realizing that without knowing how, she was wearing a dress and had a rose on her hair, and somehow she knew she was in a palace, the palace of her six princes.
She looked around, confused and not knowing what to do, until someone eyes met hers from the bottom of the stairs. N, her idol to whom she loved was standing there, dressed as a prince and smiling at her. Unable to control her legs, she went down to him and grabbed his outstretched hand, unable to believe she was with him.
They went to the dance floor, where a slow song started playing, but in a blink, it was no longer N who grabbed her hand, otherwise Hongbin, with a big smile on his face, grabbed her waist to start dancing.
They danced slowly, prince and princess, feeling every little detail, his scent. until a twist where Hongbin disappeared, replaced by Ken, who led her out of the room, to the garden illuminated by the moon, smiling at her like if she was the only one he had eyes for.
They reached a fountain in the middle of the garden, and the moon transformed the silouette of Ken to Ravi, who grabbed her both hands and kissed them very slowly, looking straight into her eyes, like if he was trying to tell her she was beautiful in every way possible. She couldn't bear it anymore and she started to cry, hugging her idol too tight. She truly loved them, and realized how much she needed them.
But when she broke the hug there was Hyuk, holding her and taking away her tears, with a smile brighter than the sun, pronouncing 'I love you' with his lips. She closed her eyes, not knowing what to say, letting the unpronounced words into her heart, ready to tell him how much she loved him.
But by the time she opened them, it was Leo the one looking at her with that special smile and eyes full of love. He removed some strands of her hair, slowly approaching his lips to hers, and at that moment every single one of her idols replaced each other, letting her feel the sensation of everyone of them coming closer to her, till the moment she could almost feel their lips on hers.
And then, she closed the book. The fairy tale was finished. Tears were all around her face, and also a big smile. It was only fiction, but she could feel her idols very close to her, like if it was real. She then touched her hair and found with surprise a rose trapped in it, and she tought that maybe it was not impossible...
END
