Ana let the script float slowly to her desk as she ran her fingers through her hair tiredly and exhaled exasperatedly.

This time round, she was going to play the part of some warped character who got cut out in the middle of movie by falling to her miserable end into a warren of mutated rabbits, or at least, something to that effect because apparently they were surpassing their budget. Lovely. She had always played characters who were shed in some sort of negative light. The closest to a good character she had ever acted as was an imposter of Snow White in a parody of the fairytale. And even in that, her part was highly humiliated in the end.

When would she get a happily ever after?

Even away from her acting career, she still was not in luck for achieving her happily ever after. There was that one dashing, handsome and overall perfect person whom she fell hopelessly in love with because he was just so charming, popular and so adorably- And who also happened to work alongside her in the world of acting, much to both delight and horror; being so close to what she really wanted, but never quite being able to reach and get it.

And then, everything went back to acting.

Ana sighed again and hitched her grey pencil skirt up so she could kick her legs up onto the mahogany desk. She wasn't satisfied with her role, but at least she had more time to chill.

She heard the door open and swivelled the chair slightly so that she could see whoever came in without removing her legs from the table. But as soon as she saw who it was, she sat up quickly in a hurry to look presentable.

It happened to be him. D.O.

He grinned cutely at her. "Hi Ana," he said casually, waving.

She blushed at being caught at such an inopportune moment; but at least she hadn't been doing anything else. "Hi, what can I help you with?"

"You're scheduled to be on set soon."

Ana frowned. She specifically remembered reading her next time as a few hours away, which technically was not soon. "I'm not due till 4pm," she said, her eyebrows creasing together.

"Well, 2pm, if I read properly," D.O said, handing her a sheet. And indeed, there it was, 2pm right next to her name. 

"What?" she said, as she traced her finger across the schedule. "Why am I suddenly playing the one of the main characters? The director told me I was playing some shady character who died in the first half of the movie."

He chuckled. "I petitioned for your change of role. You needed an opportunity to act out a good character. I thought you'd be great."

She stared at him. "Are you serious?! Tell me I'm dreaming. I'm playing a lead role?"

He gave her a winning smile. "Mm. Do you know why I chose this character for you though?"

"Why?"

"Because there's a kiss scene between this character and my part."

She stared at him with wide eyes, her mouth suddenly feeling very dry. "E-excuse me? A k-kiss scene?" she squeaked, her voice cracking a little.

He laughed at her expression and nodded. "Yes, a kiss scene. How old are you, Ana? 6?"

"Does that mean I get to kiss you?"

He wiggled his eyebrows at her. "Eager, are we?"

She put her fingers to her lips with a petulant look. "Don't tease. But why?"

"Why what?"

"Why me? Why did you ask for me to have this part?"

"Didn't I just explain it to you?"

"You did, but I don't get it. I mean, you want me to have a role because this character kisses your character- You want to kiss me?"

"I wouldn't mind. I want you to have a happily ever after."

Ana looked at D.O in surprise. How did he know she wanted a happily ever after? Maybe he could read minds. 

"Seriously, you want to kiss me?" she asked, getting up and stalking towards him, with a victorious smirk.

D.O returned the smirk with one of his own. "I figured you weren't too averse to the idea, and I don't mind practicing-"

Ana slapped his arm. "You're using me as a test subject?"

He shook his head furiously. "No, no, no. I meant, as in practice for when I kiss you at other times. And I thought that if we were going to be filmed kissing, I wouldn't have to hide us in public, we can do all that couple-y stuff. Then whoever ships us will be highly satisfied."

Her heart fluttered a little. Did he mean to ask her out? 

"Oh yeah, I forgot to ask. Will you go out with me, Ana?"

"Yes," she replied simply.

He offered his arm with a devilish grin. "Then let's go for that practice kissing, shall we?"

She finally got her happily ever after. And she was sure, it wasn't just happy, it was perfect too. Ana smiled as she walked off towards the set with her arm linked with DO's. Her happily ever after.

She liked the sound of that.
