Solar: A sequel to Eclipse

•4•

It had officially been a week since Jimin left the hospital. He was starting to get used to the personalities of the other guys he lived with.

In a way, they were similar to his dream.

Jungkook was very rowdy and playful, and he was actually the brains behind taking Jimin around the neighborhood, which also included the park and fast food options close by.

Jimin looked around at all the pretty houses and parks that they lived by. It's amazing how much can fit into a piece of a city.

Jungkook walked up to Jimin, who was sitting on a bench in front of a food truck, and handed him a styrofoam box of tacos.

"Here, they're authentic Mexican tacos. I'm positive you don't remember these." Jungkook smiled. Jimin nodded and thanked him for the food before eating.

And he was correct. He definitely wouldn't have remembered this taste. How could it be humanly possible to forget such a beautiful taste.

Jimin felt like he was on cloud nine. Jungkook smiled at the expression of the other guy.

"I know, right! They're awesome. And they're here everyday, too. So we can get one of everything if you wanted."

Jimin nodded slowly.

"This is the best thing I've tasted."

Jungkook nodded as he bit into one of his own.

"Oh yeah, you've said that before."

Jimin and Jungkook chuckled and continued eating.

It was peaceful.

Jungkook looked to Jimin as he finished eating.

"It's nice to have you back."

Jimin let out a relieved smile.

"It's nice to be back. It's so weird how everyone is so similar but so different to the dream versions of all of you."

"What was I like?" Jungkook asked curiously as he sipped the horchata that came with his meal. Jimin wasn't sure if he really wanted to say, but then again, if he really wanted to know, it's better to say.

"Well, at first, you were super mean. But then you became spunky and fun. You were always competitive and protective of your friends. You, Namjoon, Yoongi and Taehyung were super close in the dream too."

Jungkook nodded.

"That's not that far off from when we first met. Me and you weren't exactly mean to each other, but we didn't always get along." Jungkook explained. Jimin felt relief when he heard that.

"I see. You were super cool until the end though. In the dream, you died for Taehyung." Jimin explained before he sipped his drink. Jungkook widened his eyes when he heard that.

"I died?"

Jimin nodded.

"Yep, but Jin was the first one to die. You died before Yoongi, Namjoon, and Taehyung."

The conversation was so casual, but that's what made it weird. Jungkook was more confused about the fact that he died. What the hell was his dream about?

But before he could ask, Namjoon walked over.

"Jimin, how're you doing so far?" He asked. Jungkook shut his mouth once Namjoon started talking. He wasn't exactly on good terms with him.

"I'm okay."

Namjoon nodded then gave a quick glance to Jungkook.

"Why don't you go join the others, Jungkook." Namjoon suggested. Jungkook felt the tension come off his face when he finished the sentence. Of course, no one in that damn house wanted to talk about what happened.
