The Dream

Phobia

It was after their album was released, and as usual their album was a tremendous hit. It was dedicated to the LGBTQ+ community. Each song told about acceptance, reality, love and peace.
It was truly a game changing album for the members, as well as for the entire Music industry. (I don't know whether someone else have already dedicated an entire album for the LGBTQ community, but for the story sake, let's say they were the first ones.)

The songs in the album were :

Straight
Black
Dead ass
Riddle
Hide & seek
Elope

And the album cover was this

It was pretty cool, and the members themselves designed the album cover.
Everyone loved the way they showed the struggles of people who belongs to the LGBTQ community. They also showed the love and respect, good people showed towards them.

They showed two sides of the same coin, and it was freaking amazing. The members said that it was one of their greatest works, till date.

In their promo interview, a reporter asked,'Will you guys date a boy or a girl? '
Since the members were straight, they said that 99% they would date a girl, but the remaining 10 % they weren't sure, since they don't know what was gonna happen in the future.
At the same time Criss said, that she really don't mind what the other person's gender is, all that matters is that person's open mindedness, and love for her.

Everyone cheered for their answers and they went home, happy.

After 2 months of their album release and everything, they had Run BTS.
They were excited, since they knew for today's episode, there was an adventure waiting for them.
They wore something that was comfortable for both land and water, since it was said that there will be swimming too.

This is how she looked like.
(I'm lazy to upload the pictures of the costume the boys were wearing, since they are 7.😁)

At first they played the games, that were supposed to be in the land. And at last, it was time to decide which team wins in the water dunking challenge.

The rules of the game was pretty simple. All they had to do was submerge themselves, in the water, and whoever comes out last, their team wins.

Criss wanted to tell them that she was extremely afraid of water, and was having a phobia about it. (Aquaphobia) . She saw Kookie, who was in the opposite team, but he was standing right next to her.

'Hey, Look. I'm kinda scared of water. I've never actually submerged myself in water too. ' she said nervously.
Kookie, being competitive as always, while playing games, teased her.
'Oh, then it looks like your team is gonna lose because of you. Come on! Just jump man! Don't worry too much about it. ' he patted her shoulders, and waited for the signal to jump.
She nodded her head, even though he wasn't looking at her anymore, but she just did it to ensure herself that she's gonna be alright, and she can do it.

After a few seconds, there was whistle noise, and they both jumped at the same time.

She could feel herself, gasping for air, as she wasn't able to gasp in air before jumping into the water. She as way too focused in self motivating.
She felt like her lungs were gonna burst out, and she kept on trying to come up to the surface. She tried to grab onto something, so that she could push herself back up, but it was just water, everywhere.
All she could see was the sun's reflection on the water, and slowly, it started to disappear, and her head shook back and forth, due to lack of oxygen. She felt like slowly going to sleep, as she closed her eyes. Suddenly, she felt someone grab her arm, and pull her towards the surface.
She was way too subconscious to open her eyes, and it remained closed.

Kookie managed to stay under water till the count of 59. Then, he came up, gasping for air.
They weren't much surprised to see that she wasn't up yet, because they knew that she was also pretty much competitive when it came to games. But kookie was a bit worried. He remembered how she said that she was scared of water, and how she never really submerged herself in water before.

'Whoa! We got a tough competitor here guys! It's 79,and she's still not up! She's something! ' Jin said, truly impressed. The rest of the boys, except Kookie were also having that impressed look on their faces.
'No guys! I think there is something wrong. She told me before jumping that he was scared of water, and she hadn't got herself submerged before. I think, she's in danger! ' He said, completely bewildered.

The rest of the members turned pale when they heard it.
'What! Why didn't you say this before! We didn't have to risk a person's life for winning a god damn game! Move aside! ' Yoongi yelled at him, and jumped right into the pool.
He was who pulled her out of water.

When they pulled her up, she was barely breathing. Just, minute shaky breaths.
'Oh my god! Haenbog-ah wake up! ' Suga cried out loud, while rubbing her palms and legs, to heat up the body.

RM came and shook her by the cheeks. 'Haenbog-ah, wake up. Please! ' he said desperately.
Just then the medic team arrived, and gave her CPR.
After a few tries, she suddenly woke up, coughing, and vomiting water. Hobi rubbed her back while she was spitting water, and the rest of the members had a relieved expression on their face.

Yoongi kneeled beside her, and hugged her with all his might. He cried silently, still hugging her close to his chest, not ready to give her away to anyone. She hugged him back, wih the same energy, and she kept on murmuring something like, 'I don't wanna do that again, I almost died. Take me home. Please.. '

She was crying Unstoppably, and Suga shushed her down.
'Hey, it's ok baby. You're ok. I got you. I got you.. We're going home. Everything is ok baby. Don't worry. ' he kept on repeating this, and slowly she calmed down, and was slowly getting sleepy.

Rm and Jin took her, bridal style, and the medic team told them to take her to the hospital, since there could be something more to her physical condition.
She wasn't having a fragile body, she was having a pretty good immune system. But the phobia with water, would have messed up her mind and body, and usually in these cases, when people come in contact with their phobias, it doesn't go that well.

The boys got a bit more nervous, and they hurried into their cars.
Suga was staying there, still on his knees, and worrying about her. Kookie was standing by his side, guilt eating him up.
'Only if I could have paid more attention to what she said, then I could have stopped her. Then all of this wouldn't have happened! I'm an idiot! ' he kept in cursing himself mentally.

Yoongi got up, and turned to Kookie.
'You are the reason why we almost lost her here! ' he yelled at the younger. Kookie, who already had tears in his eyes, looked destroyed when his hyung said those words.
'I'm sorry. I didn't meant for that to happen! I just thought that she was a bit scared of water, and she would be alright after a bit. I.. I... didn't mean for this to happen to her. She's my sister! ' he cried.
'Don't call her that. She's not your sister anymore. You almost killed her today. No brother would ever do that. You better stay away from her, or else you'll hurt her more. ' Yoongi said, with a poker face, and hurried off to his car, to go to the hospital.
Kookie was left there, all alone, thinking, and regretting about what he had done. He pulled his hair, and cried his eyes out.
After crying for almost an hour, his phone was ringing.
When he checked it, it was Jimin.
He picked up.
'Hello. ' he said, monotonously.

'Where the hell are you! Why aren't you here in the hospital? 'Jimin screamed through the phone.
'I'm the reason she's there in the hospital right now. I'm pretty sure she doesn't wanna see me again. ' he said, while collecting himself from the ground.
Jimin felt bad for his Kookie, and he felt so bad for him, since he was blaming all of it on himself.
'Listen Kookie, you are not the reason behind why she's here right now. Ok! Understand that. And, her condition is kinda serious. And that's why I called you to know where you were.. '

'What happened to her? Is she alright?? ' Kookie cut him off in between.
'Well, she is kinda alright now, but she had a minor heart attack because of the incident. The doctor said that, most people have this as an after effect from facing their phobia. Now she's back to normal. She's sleeping right now. 'Jimin said.

Jungkook dropped his phone, when he said she had a heart attack. He couldn't believe his ears. 'Oh my god! I really almost killed my Haenbog-ah! I have to meet her. Make sure she's ok. I have to see her with own eyes. '

He said to himself, as he drove to the hospital.
