Once upon a time a raindrop had a chance meeting with a little flame. This meeting would change them in ways they could not fathom. The raindrop, known as Jimin, was the first to say "hello". The little flame, known as Yoongi, was taken aback by the cute little drop of water as he stuttered out a simple "h-hi" as a response with an awkward little wave. Jimin smiled at Yoongi and tried to hold his hand. As soon as they made contact they both jumped back in fear as their hands began to evaporate into a grey smoke. They looked at each other longingly as they realised they could not touch without disappearing. Yoongi had an idea though, although it wasn't perfect, it was better than nothing. He found a small, long rock and motioned over Jimin.

"We can both hold one side of this rock, and I can take you somewhere special. Will you come with me?" Jimin simply nodded cheerfully and grabbed the opposite end of the rock.

Yoongi guided Jimin through the luscious forest, over many obstacles, until they came to an open field. The sun was setting by this point and it was becoming dark. Yoongi led them to a small cave made from a large rock that was titled towards the sky. The both sat down side by side, but making sure not to touch. They both fiddled around awkwardly while they waited for whatever Yoongi wanted to show Jimin. Yoongi looked at Jimin and thought, "Wow. Water is the best. Why can we never touch? He is truly beautiful." He came out of his thoughts when he noticed that Jimin was looking right back at him with a confused look. He turned away instantly and silently cursed himself for not being more careful. Jimin just kept staring at him wondering why Yoongi stared at him in such a way.

What felt like hours passed and Yoongi looked up to see a sky full of stars. He looked back at Jimin, who seemed to be struggling to stay awake. He gently nudged him with the rock to get his attention. When Jimin finally looked at him, he pointed towards the sky. Jimin looked at him, confused as to what could be so important in the sky for him to wake him up. He sighed and looked up. He stared in awe as he saw millions of bright lights littering the sky. The sight was breathtaking. He had never seen something so beautiful. He smiled contently and looked back at Yoongi. Yoongi was staring back at him in the same way he had been before, but this time he did not turn away. A small smile made its way to his face as he realised he was caught staring. Jimin was wrong. The stars were not the most beautiful thing, Yoongi smiling was. Not just Yoongi smiling, but Yoongi smiling at him in a way that made him feel excited and just happy.

Jimin loved Yoongi. He had only known him for a day and had decided that he loved him. This thought made him nervous and joyful at the same time. He was mostly nervous because what if it was only a one-sided love? Little did he know that Yoongi was having the exact same thoughts just across from him. Jimin knew he didn't have a long life ahead of him though and decided to just tell him. He looked at Yoongi and began to speak, "Hey, Yoongi?" "Yes?" "I-I love you." Yoongi's eyes went wide as the words escapes little Jimin's mouth. Jimin began to panic as he watched Yoongi's reaction. Just as he was about to say he was just kidding he felt a warm pain through his entire body. "I love you too." Yoongi hugged him tightly as he said the words. They both began to cry as they held each other. They cried from happiness and pain at the same time as they began to disappear into smoke. The smoke floated into the sky together. They had become one and regretted nothing.
