"Happy birthday to youuuuu." The boys finished singing. I smiled blowing out my candles."Here's to 27." Hoseok smiled pouring us some soju in shot glasses.
"To 27." I said faintly.
"Well what did you wish for?" Jimin asked.
For things between Eleanor and I to become like a fairytale love story. For her to return home and be here with me.
"If I tell you it won't come true." I whispered.
The doorbell rang and Namjoon went to answer coming back shortly with Eleanor. My heart sped up and I stood.
She smiled shyly. "Just in time." She said softly. "I-
I cut her off with a hug and she slowly hugged me back only causing me to hug her firmer.
"Happy birthday." She whispered once we pulled away and handed me a box that I set aside. I just wanted to look at her. "You didn't even open-
"I'll open it later. My first wish already came true I just want to look." I caressed her face making her stare up at me with a soft look. "I missed you."
"I missed you too." She nodded.
"Hello we're here too." Hoseok teased, Eleanor smiled and greeted the boys.
"How've you been doing all alone?"
"It was great." She beamed at Namjoon. "I wasn't entirely alone, I had a whole class with me but I guess I was alone as well but it was nice. I didn't mind being alone."
But I did.
"It gave me a lot of time to myself." She shrugged. "It was much needed."
"Well we're glad to have you back. What did you see? Do you think you have an idea of what type of lawyer you want to be?" Taehyung smiled.
"We can talk about that later. Right now is Jin day." She chuckled.
-Eleanor-
I ate cake outside on the backyard patio by myself staring at the cherry blossom tree.
Our tree.
This month had given me a chance to see what life without Jin would be like.
And I hated it.
I set the plate down wrapping myself with my cardigan and hugged my body taking in a deep breath and exhaling a cloud of air.
I love Jin, or at least I think it's love. I really did want to be with him for the rest of my life, grow up together have kids of our own and watch them grow while we grew old together and eventually went onto our next lives.
I wonder if in our next life we'd be together or would we be with other people.
I didn't have much knowledge in how next lives and all that even worked.
