Eclipse of the Divine

The Silent Gaze

The girls sat at the far end of the cafeteria, their presence still lingering in the air even after they had taken their seats. Without a word, they clasped their hands together, their eyes closed in unison as they murmured a quiet prayer. It was a moment of serene silence that stood in stark contrast to the noisy cafeteria, drawing the attention of every student in the room.

Then, slowly, as if orchestrated by an unseen force, they began to remove their masks, each movement fluid and deliberate. With their eyes still closed, the masks fell away, revealing the girls' breathtaking beauty in all its glory. The room went completely still, every pair of eyes fixed on them as the air seemed to grow heavier, the silence almost palpable.

The sheer radiance of their beauty was overwhelming. It was as if the entire cafeteria had been struck by an invisible force. The boys, who were already stunned by the girls' presence, felt their breath catch in their throats. Some of them even stopped chewing mid-bite, their mouths hanging slightly open in disbelief. Their faces turned a shade of red as they struggled to comprehend what they were witnessing.

The girls remained unaware of the effect they had on those around them, their composure unwavering as they sat in their stillness. They kept their eyes closed, the silence stretching on, until finally, they opened their eyes.

The instant their eyes met the light of the cafeteria, a collective gasp rippled through the room.

Lalisa's eyes, like a deep, starless night, shimmered with silver highlights that flickered like distant stars, casting an otherworldly glow over her face. The boys couldn't tear their eyes away, mesmerized by the vastness of her gaze, which seemed to stretch into infinity. Jungkook's heart skipped a beat as his eyes locked with hers for the briefest of moments. In that single second, he felt as though the entire universe had narrowed down to the space between them. The feeling was intense-overwhelming. He had never been so affected by a single glance.

Taehyung, who had been absentmindedly chewing his food, suddenly froze. His gaze met Jennie's fiery crimson eyes, which burned with a warmth that contrasted with the icy coolness of her demeanor. The swirling golden sparks in her eyes seemed to flicker in time with the rapid pounding of his heart. For a moment, he forgot to breathe. The world around him blurred, and the only thing he could focus on was the intensity of her gaze.

Jimin, who had been in mid-conversation with Jin, found himself silent, his voice trailing off as his eyes met Rose's iridescent violet ones. The shifting shades of violet were mesmerizing, like a shadow dancing across the surface of a still pond. Her gaze seemed to speak to him in a language he couldn't quite understand, pulling him in deeper.

Jin, seated across from Jisso, couldn't help but feel as if he had been struck by lightning when he met her emerald green eyes. The celestial gold that glittered within them made her gaze feel both powerful and divine, like something straight out of a myth. It was a look that made him feel small, insignificant, yet in awe all at once.

For a split second, everything in the room seemed to stop. The boys were frozen, lost in the hypnotic effect of the girls' eyes. It was only after a few moments of stunned silence that they all seemed to shake themselves out of it, blinking rapidly to clear their heads.

Suga, Namjoon, and Hoseok, sitting farther down the table, were the first to recover. They exchanged glances, trying to suppress their smiles as they watched their friends struggle with their emotions.

"Man, you all look like you've seen a ghost," Namjoon teased, his voice low, but filled with amusement. He nudged Jungkook, who was still staring at Lalisa in disbelief. "Are you okay? You look like you just saw your soul leave your body."

Jungkook blinked and quickly looked away, taking a deep breath as he tried to compose himself. "I'm fine," he muttered, though his voice sounded strained. His heart was still racing from the intensity of the eye contact.

Hoseok, who had been watching the scene unfold with a grin on his face, chuckled. "Yeah, you guys need to calm down," he teased, looking over at Taehyung. "Tae, I think you're gonna set yourself on fire with all that blushing."

Taehyung blushed even more, flustered by Hoseok's comment, but he couldn't deny the truth. He had been completely overwhelmed by Jennie's gaze.

Suga, always the cool one, couldn't resist throwing in his own teasing remark. "It's not every day you see something that beautiful, huh?" he said with a smirk, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "I mean, I get it. Even I'm feeling a little... distracted."

The laughter and teasing spread to the other boys, though they were still unable to stop sneaking glances at the girls. They were blushing furiously, trying to pretend that they hadn't just been deeply affected by a mere exchange of eye contact.

As this playful teasing was happening, a sudden movement caught their attention. Somi, who had been watching the girls with wide-eyed admiration, was visibly pale, her hand clutching her chest as though she had been struck by lightning. She swayed slightly, her face flushed with shock. Her eyes were glazed over, and before anyone could react, she leaned dramatically to the side, almost toppling off her chair.

"Uh-oh," Suga muttered, his tone amused. "Somi's about to faint."

Hoseok was the first to react, jumping out of his seat and rushing to her side. He knelt down next to her with a concerned but playful smile. "Don't tell me you're fainting from the girls' beauty too," he said, teasing her as he handed her a glass of water.

Somi took the water gratefully, her hands trembling. "I... I can't breathe," she whispered, still dazed. "They... they're just so... perfect."

Hoseok chuckled, a sweet and reassuring smile on his face as he gently fanned her. "Take it easy, Somi. You're not the only one. We're all kind of having a hard time here."

Meanwhile, the conversation at the girls' table continued, unaffected by the chaos around them. Jennie, watching the scene unfold, couldn't help but laugh softly. "I didn't think the cafeteria would be the place to reveal our stunning visuals," she remarked with a dry, amused tone. "Maybe I should've saved it for the cover of a romance novel or something."

Rose, never missing a beat, shot back with a dramatic flair. "Oh, definitely. A sunset on a cliff, wind blowing through our hair, our eyes glistening in the light. Very cliché, but dramatic, I'll give you that."

The conversation between the girls was casual, lighthearted even, but their expressions remained neutral-no trace of emotion showing on their faces. It was as if they had grown used to this kind of attention and had learned long ago to keep their emotions in check. Their beauty, however, remained undeniable, a force that left everyone around them stunned into silence.
