“Is it true?”
“Is what true?” you asked, leaning closer to your phone to check your lipstick in the screen mirroring your image back to you. You rubbed your ring finger over your lips, smoothing the creases in the color out.
“That they’ve casted the male lead for your movie,” your best friend replied, unfazed by your actions.
“You know I’m not supposed to tell you. They make official announcements for a reason, you know,” you pointed out, pulling your phone away so you could fully see Kailee again.
“Aren’t there any perks to being the childhood best friend of a famous actress?” she playfully whined.
You rolled your eyes. “Kails,” you started, using your nickname for her, “just ask the real question you wanna know.”
“Is it true Taehyung Kim is going to be in your movie? The actual fucking beautiful, man-of-my-fucking-dreams Taehyung Kim?”
“When have you ever talked about him before?” you feigned nonchalance. You immediately started to turn the volume down on your phone, prepared for Kailee’s screaming that was surely about to sound through your FaceTime app.
“Y/N!” Kailee stated to yell. You pushed down the teasing smile that wanted to leak from your lips. “DO YOU NEVER LISTEN TO ME?! Tae. Hyung. Kim,” she enunciated his name. “I’ve talked about him since his very first role in America when he was just that extra that delivered coffee and said the first line that ever made my heart race for him.” She took a deep breath, lowering her voice several octaves to match his as she said, “‘An iced coffee with half-and-half and a vanilla sweet cream cold brew.’” She sighed dreamily. “I dreamed about Starbucks for a week after that.”
You couldn’t stop yourself. You burst out laughing. “Oh, him!” you pretended to suddenly recognize the name.
“Y/N, don’t even play with me, especially if the rumor is true! Please just promise that you’ll take me with you to set for one day. Please, please, please, please, please, pl—”
“I already do take you to set at least once every film, Kails,” you reminded her.
“But, Y/N, please, if it really is Taehyung, you have to take me with you. I’d actually die if I got to see that smile in person.” She looked like she was about to faint on the other end of the phone. You rolled your eyes at how dramatic she was.
“They’re making the announcement tomorrow. Can’t you wait until then?” you asked, pulling your phone away so you could look out the window. You were only a block or so away from the studio. You were going to have to hang up soon.
Kailee sighed even louder. “Fine,” she dragged the word out. “I can wait until tomorrow with all of the other peasants. Why are you so cruel to me, Y/N?” she whined.
“I’m gonna have to hang up, Kails. I’m almost to the studio.”
“You’re already working on the film?!” her shrieking tone almost burst your eardrum.
“For fuck’s sake, calm down, Kailee,” you demanded after seeing the disapproving look your chauffeur sent you through the rearview mirror. “We’re doing readings already, that’s it. Filming will start in another three weeks after he gets here. I’m hanging up now.”
“‘After he gets here’?” Kailee echoed. “So it is Taehyung! Oh my god, you’re going to get to look into the most beautiful eyes ever graced upon a man. I’m so fucking jealous of you! Are you going to get to kiss him??”
“The script is for a Christmas rom-com, Kailee. What do you think?”
She screamed. “OH MY GOD IT’S GOING TO BE THE BIGGEST MOVIE OF THE SEASON! I’M ACTUALLY DYING RIGHT NOW!”
“Goodbye, Kailee,” you said with a roll of your eyes, ending the call before she could say anything else. You turned your attention to your chauffeur as he approached the gates to the studio lot. “Do you think she’s right, George? You think it’s going to be the hottest movie of the season?”

a lonely nye (third in a row)
A witch puts a spell on a girl, a sleeping spell that promises the girl shall wake through true love’s kiss. Men come and kiss her. She slumbers. Women come and press their lips to hers, but still she sleeps. Many years past, and the girl remains still. One bright morning, a lost little boy finds her resting spot and clears the dust and grime from her face. He offers her a kiss on her forehead, and her eyes flutter open. She never feels romantic love for a man nor a woman, and she cares for the boy until the day she dies.
A young woman is imprisoned in a castle by a monstrously formed prince. The servants of the castle hope for them to fall in love, and when the spell is broken they assume their prayers have been answered. They are all surprised, but nonetheless pleased, when it is revealed to them that the young woman and prince are the truest of friends, and nothing more.
They say the kingdom is ruled by an evil queen, a woman who is incapable of loving. She is unmarried, she has no consorts, and she wishes for no partner. She is the wretched queen, the heartless queen. She must hate her daughter, for her daughter is beautiful, and women are incapable of liking another woman who’s prettier than themselves. It must be for this reason that the princess was sent away, not for how she was attacked by a man in the woods. They say the kingdom is ruled by an evil queen because she cannot love. The queen loves her daughter, and that is enough for them both.
There lives a prince who is forced to choose a bride at the ball. He meets many beautiful women, but find none which he loves. He spies one in a gorgeous gown and wonder in her eyes, and he dances with her all night long. The kingdom is sure he has found his bride. When the clock strikes midnight he tells her how he will never love a woman, or a man, in the way he is expected to. The beautiful woman smiles and tells him she expects nothing from him. The next morning the prince and the beautiful woman are missing, having run off together to see the world. They leave their shoes behind in their haste.
Many kinds of love exist. It doesn’t all have to be romantic.
