JUNGKOOK:

The first thing I hear, before even opening my eyes, is the sound of light footsteps walking across a wooden floor. I stretch my arms out on what I assume to be my bed, as I feel the suddenly fluffy covers placed on top of my body. Although very confused, I refuse to live up to my curiosity and keep my eyes shut as I try to fall back asleep.

My plan inevitably fails as I'm put under shock by sudden pressure on my legs. Due to me facing the right, leaning on that side with my legs one over the other, there's no way for me to escape the unexpected grip.

After many failed attempts, I give up and open one eye to at least catch the culprit. The person I see is the last I would've ever thought of, but then again, there's this thought at the back of my mind that I was preparing myself for this.

As if it's happened before, done by the same person.

No longer wearing the beanie he'd wear on a daily basis, I see Tae smile at himself to something on his phone as he leans down onto my leg with his arm. His bangs fallen in his eyes, I can't quite catch the usual sparkle in his eye as he sees something he likes. 'Cause of my current laying position, I can't necessarily see his smile as he looks at whatever made him happy.

But something in me makes me feel as if I had seen it. As if I had seen the smile that makes my stomach twist, making the butterflies fly free.

"What the fuck?" I hear him laugh as he goes on looking at whatever's on his phone. "Oh my god..."

Taehyung goes on giggling off to himself, hand covering his mouth and eyes closing every so often as if it'd change the volume of his laughter.

With the bit of strength, I have left in me, I try to push myself up from my laying position to then sit straight up, to get a better view of the male on my bed. I simply stay there for a few moments, observing, as he fails to realize my sudden awakened presence. After finally having enough of the silence, I try to call for his attention.

"Tae..." I grumble, still too tired to properly pronounce words.

Hearing my scratchy morning voice, Tae puts down his phone onto his lap, then faces me with big, curious eyes. He gently smiles at me, before bringing himself closer towards me. He brings his hand up and places it onto my face, carefully caressing my cheek.

"Good morning," He says with a sweet tone. "I made breakfast."

"What-what's going on, T-tae?" I stutter out.

"What do you mean? I just made pancakes, how about we talk over some food?"

"Wait but," I start, not knowing what else to say.

"How about we go eat the pancakes that I took the whole morning to make, 'cause you know my cooking." His voice has anger in it, but his face says otherwise, calm and caring. "Sounds good?"

"I-I guess..."

He grabs my arm and helps me get up on my feet. He then leads me to the closet and hands me, what I suppose to be, my robe. I look down to find myself shirtless in simply a pair of boxers, making me grab the robe in a hurry, wanting to cover up from my friend.

"Why are you in such a rush this morning, Jungkook?" Tae laughs for unknown reasons. I can't help but be confused by his odd actions.

Firstly, he's in my room. Secondly, he's acting as if we full-on live together, even though we've only met not too long ago, as well as only having him over that one time. Overall, I'm not certain as to why he's here with me, but something in me makes me feel happy about it.

"Well, I just- I just thought that it-it might be weird that, that you know..." I look down at my practically naked body. "I'm not wearing clothes...?"

Taehyung simply looks at me and proceeds to let out a rough chuckle as he shakes his head and walks out of my room. My room that now, instead of leading directly to a staircase going upstairs, leads out to a long hallway.

Confused, I follow behind him after I finished getting dressed.

To my surprise, even if I had gotten out right after him, he is nowhere to be found as I exit the bedroom. The hallway is empty, having only one direction that I could walk in: the staircase, going down.

I do so, having no other options, but I step on my own feet and end up falling down. I shut my eyes tightly as I know the pain will soon reach me.

I sit there for a few moments, waiting for it to happen. To have some sort of shock on my legs, arms, hands, anywhere really. But after a minute of closing my eyes, nothing happens. I feel nothing.

It's only when I end up opening my eyes that I realize that I've never even left my bed. 

Neither has Tae ever been here with me...

now pausing... dear dream, nct dream

A/N:

Sorry that this is short, chapters that take place simply in Jungkook's dreams will be around this length, meaning many more to come :)

Also, can I just have a moment to explain my love for BTS? Like just last Wednesday it was their 6 year anniversary and I'm just-

I love them so much :(

And that's the uwus,
