In My Dreams [Infinite Fanfic]

Part 1

Sungjong_POV

"It's always the same" I sighed to myself as I climbed in the van. "Why can't they just give me some space?"

"You say that all the time" Myungsoo rolled his eyes. "This is what it's like being an Idol, or have you forgot what you signed up for?"

"I haven't forgotten!" I defended myself. "I just wish they would give me some space" I let out a frustrated groan. "I just want to be able to be myself without having to worry about what the fans will think. I hate having to constantly look over my shoulder to make sure someone isn't taking a picture or videotaping me!"

Sunggyu placed a hand on my shoulder. "I understand" he said softly. "We all do...."

"No you don't!" I screamed at him. "They never followed you into the bathroom!"

He looked taken aback by my sudden outburst, but he did his best to remain calm as he continued. "You're right" he chucked self-mockingly. "I've never had that problem." He looked around at all the other members "But we all have had our privacy invaded in some way. You're not alone in this Sungjong. We are all here for you."

"Sometimes I just wish there was a place I could go to get away from all this" I slouched in my seat. A place where no one knew who I was and I could just be myself. 

I knew it was going to be a long drive, so I closed my eyes hoping that I'd be able to see her again.

When my eyes opened again, I was happy to see her standing there waiting for me. "So where should we go today?" she asked with a smile. "Russia?"

"Too cold!" I shivered.

"Egypt?"

"Too hot! You want me to sweat to death?"

"Italy, for the wine country?"

I shook my head "We could do that in France or California."

"Then where do you want to go?" she sighed and pouted. "Where haven't we been?"

I thought for a moment before grabbing her hand and pulling her towards me. "Where do you live?"

"What about you?" she countered. "Where do you live?"

It was our usual banter, but it made me happy. "Come on! I want to know!"

She sighed and rolled her eyes "You know this is only a dream, so why do you keep asking?"

She was right. This was only a dream. I knew that....... but I couldn't help but hope that there was more to it than that. I wanted to believe she was real. That someday we would actually meet.

"Earth to Sungjong" she waved her hands in front of my face. "Come in Sungjong" she laughed.

I smiled as I grabbed her hands, pulled her towards me once more and held her. "Close your eyes" I whispered in her ear.

She nodded and did as I asked.

I also closed my eyes as I imagined the place I wanted to take her. When I opened them again, I was happy that it had worked. "You can look now."

She slowly pulled away from me and opened her eyes. I watched as both her eyes and smiled lit up with excitement. "It's so beautiful!!!! Where are we?"

"Jeju Island in spring" I smiled back at her. I just knew she would love this place.

"Jeju?" she cocked her head to the side confused. "Where is that again? I don't recognize it."

I smiled as I grabbed her hand and began to walk down the road. "Jeju Island is an island off the southern coast of South Korea."

"Ahh" she nodded. "Now that you mention it, I think I've heard of it before."

I watched as she admired the flowers all around us. Her eyes were truly filled with happiness. "Beautiful" I couldn't help but say as I watched her.

"Yes it is" she sighed happily as she leaned her head on my arm. "What kind of flowers are these?"

"They are canola flowers" I smiled.

She stopped and grabbed my arm forcing me to look at her. "Canola? Like the cooking oil?"

I chuckled a little "Yeah."

She looked around "Seriously? Who knew they were so pretty?" She smiled more.

"Not nearly as pretty as you" I commented.

"Please" she bashfully replied. "I'm not pretty."

"You're right" I replied.

She looked up at me in shock. Then she lowered her head a bit disappointed. "See, I knew I wasn't."

I took a couple of steps away from her before turning around and yelling "You're absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!"

She looked up at me and blushed. "Sungjong!"

"What?" I asked innocently. "It's true!"

She continued to blush "Only you would say something like that."

I walked back over to her and cupped my hand on her cheek. "I'll say it as many times as it takes for you to believe it." I leaned forward a little. "You are the most beautiful woman in the world" I said before kissing her soft lips.

"Sungjong" I heard Sunggyu calling me in the distance.

I knew what was going to happen, but I still tried to fight against it. I tried focusing on her lips. Their taste, their feel, their warmth. Anything that would stop me from waking up.

"Ya Sungjong! Wake up! We're home!" Sunggyu shouted as he shook me. "Come on! Get up!" he yelled.

I opened my eyes and gave him the death stare.

"What did I do?" he asked shocked by my attitude.

"Nothing" I griped as I got out of the van. "Nothing at all." Once inside, I went to my room and collapsed on my bed. I closed my eyes and sighed "Why did he have to wake me up."
