Alive II Yoonmin

38

"It worked...it actually worked."

It's become obvious yet so foreign all at the same time to hear those words. The crying grown man on the floor was what we we needed, he was what was missing to the big puzzle, not the single pieces we played with. Jooheon's current destruction was the answer we have been searching for without knowing so. 

The strong sobbing turns down to soft sniffs. 

"C-Can you send me back?"

Taehyung looks down. "I...the last of the batch was destroyed after Jimin took it."

"What batch? I thought Jimin was-"

Jimin stands up, shutting me right up. He walks towards me calmly. His hands take a single one of mine to be caressed and strike a sense of peace to my chest. Warmth engulfs me and our hearts beat right in front of each other. Lips are placed on my cheek before they graze my ear. 

"I'm your little psycho, remember I told you that right."

I nod. 

"Well like the rumors say, the doctors are as mad as the patients. I was both in the hospital so I guess you can say whatever way the half truth goes it doesn't matter for me. After I sent you to sleep we expected you to wake up at least within months but you didn't, so" Jimin motioned to Jooheon, "he offered to pull you out. We hooked you guys up to machines that allows for dreams to be shared or so Namjoon claimed. If it worked we were unsure but a month went by and both of you slept soundly so Mark decided to step in. He toke a dose of the serum and tried to do the same as Jooheon...and he failed so Hansol went in to get you all. We gave them all time to pull each other out but non of you did so I went in with a much smaller dose of the experiment. Remember, I told you I woke with you? Do you Yoongi?"

I do remember. He said I didn't recall then changed the subject. I get it now, everything is starting to make sense.

"You sent yourself into a possible eternal sleep just to try to wake me up?"

Jimin nods his head with a grin plastered on his sweet lips. I wrap my hands around his cheeks and pull him into a kiss. I pull him so much closer to fell as much of him as possible as I moved my lips on his for a few seconds before breaking us off. I rest my forehead against his. 

"You're crazy."

Jimin smiles. "Yeah, for you."

I kiss him one last time for I come back to reality that we are not alone. Jooheon's back on his feet, held up by Mark. Taehyung passes him water while explaining to him that that life he dreamed was all  made up. Whatever we had gone through together those years in our comas was all fake. The original place in which we had originally appeared was chosen by the world made up in my mind. 

"So the whole cemetery was fake? The other's dead weren't there?"

Taehyung shook his head. "No, it was just the four of you for the majority of the time up until some time before you woke when Jimin joined."

"But Jimin was in my dream," Jooheon says. "A while before you said he'd appear. He was there before he...he was there for a long time Taehyung."

"Well like I said, the world you were in was originally created by Yoongi so the people in there were part of his memory. The Jimin you first met was all part of his head, you were only seeing a perception. The real one came in much later."

Jooheon claims to understand but tries doing so on his own and we let him. He is left with Taehyung in the room while the three of us head into the kitchen to prepare a tea that will calm the nerves of our friend. We do so in silence while sharing looks. Mark is slowly becoming lost in himself I notice. I put my hand on his shoulder to reassure him that I am there if there is something he needs to get out. My message goes through for he does have something to say. 

"Yoongi if Jooheon has his memories then... does that mean we'll get ours too?"

I can't answer him with an answer that is sure to be correct so I say what is the next best thing.

"Let's hope not because if we do, we're going to want to go back."

We join in a hug that becomes shared by three instead of two. Jooheon grips us tightly as he mutters that he we finally did it. Things were clearing up, it was over. The sleepless nights wondering the past and the busy filled days searching for answers. Although knowing has come to be nothing but harsh slaps against our faces, we wouldn't want it any other way. No longer was there mystery and no more would there be searching. Rest was coming our way, a normal life was following.

Our treasured hug goes on with smiles on our faces. I, unfortunately made the mistake of looking away from my friends. The sight I caught told me that this night wasn't over, there was one last big thing waiting for the three of us.

"Hansol's awake."
