"Yes?" She look up at Hoseok as she laid her head in his lap.
"I made the sun extra bright for you today." His bright smile was contagious. "Do you like it?"
"I love it!" She turned her face towards the star. "It's the perfect thing to dry up all of that rain from yesterday."
He pulled a red flower off of its stem and placed it in her hair along with the rest of the flowers he and Seokjin had put there. "What have you been up to lately?"
"Nothing really. My mother brought me a book but, I'm not sure how I feel about it. It's a bit boring."
"Then why don't you ask her for another book?" Hoseok suggested.
"I can make you a book," Namjoon chimed cheerfully. "I'll have it ready for your birthday tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" She sat up. "How could one make a story so fast?"
"I had already written it. I just have to put the pages together."
"Speaking of your birthday," Seokjin sat down next to her with his hands full of tulips. "What do you want to do tomorrow? It has to be special."
"I don't know." She shrugged as the oldest of the them stuck the flowers in her hair. Once he was done he seemed satisfied with his work.
"Wow, you're almost as beautiful as me." Seokjin lifted her chin.
"No, not really. Why don't we just do what we usually do for my birthday? The seven of us can each bring a dish and play games."
"How about you leaving the garden for the day?" Yoongi's voice startled the three men.
"Yah! When did you get here?" Seokjin exclaimed.
"He's almost always here." Persephone explained. "He was napping."
"Why am I not surprised?" Hoseok chuckled.
"Why don't you leave the garden for a day? You've always wanted to leave." Yoongi sat in front of her playing with the grass.
"My mother will kill me if she finds out I disobeyed her."
"She doesn't have to find out. We won't venture that far off. We'll stay close by." Hoseok seemed more excited by this idea than she did.
"I don't know..." Namjoon inputed skeptically. "That doesn't sound like such a great idea. Everyone wants Persephone, we could be putting her in serious danger by encouraging her to escape."
"Ah, you're always raining on someone's parade." Hoseok frowned at Namjoon.
"Well, it was just a suggestion." Yoongi explained with a shrug.
"Well... what do you want to do?" Seokjin turned to her.
"I don't know... I really want to leave. I want to do something different this year. I'm just so scared that my mother will find out." She shook her head to herself.
"If you're that worried, Yoongi can put her to sleep for the day. Just until you get back." Seokjin reassured.
"Really?" She turned to Yoongi. "Can you do that for me?"
"Yeah, I can." Yoongi answered.
"Nothing harmful just a twenty four hour sleeping spell."
"Of course."
"Yay!" She cheered throwing her arms around him and he fell back into the grass with her on top of him. "Sorry." She chuckled and kissed his pale cheek.
She stood wearing a huge smile. "Thank you so much! You guys are the best."
"I still think this is a bad idea." Namjoon whispered to himself.
