-------

Run episodes were a big thing amongst the fans. Many of the famous moments in the show had gone on to become hilarious inside jokes. Times such as Yoongi transforming in Yoonji or Hoseok screaming when a zombie came too close to him had been turned into immortal memes.

Tae had a fear of water, but the memes hadn't caught that yet. But when the Run writers decided it would be a great idea to do a water course, he didn't protest.

Do it for the fans, he told himself. Do it for the people who stay up late writing fanfiction about you, he told himself.

-------

Tae stared at himself in the mirror. If he had to be frank, he looked scared. His face had a whitish tinge to it and even his biggest fake smile didn't cover it.

Sighing, he exited the bathroom to join the other members in the dressing rooms.

Yoongi looked up from his phone to glance at Tae briefly as he walked into the room before going back to his task. Namjoon was sitting at the back, book in hand. Probably more art books.

Loud talking and laughter came down the hallway. The other members burst into the room, big smiles on their faces.

Lucky. They're not scared. Tae thought before joining Yoongi on the bench.

"What are you looking at?" he halfheartedly asked the rapper.

Yoongi held up his phone to show Tae the new track he was working on. Red and white boxes signifying the beats. More tracks were layered on top of it.

"Do you like it?"

Tae nodded.

Yoongi thanked him with a smile. "I just need to smooth out the transitions and then I can send it along to the producer."

Tae grinned uneasily. He wished he had something to do to distract himself.

He contented himself with watching Jin and Jungkook punch each other in the background. Those two were always bickering and fighting. Tae's heart warmed in a sweet way when he saw Jin's foot accidentally smack Jungkook too hard and the eldest immediately got to his knees to check on him.

Sejin entered the room, counting the members to make sure they were all in there. They were. He cleared his throat loudly and stared at Jungkook and Jin with a smirk.

"Uhh guys?" He said after a while.

Jin and Jungkook looked up. They laughed when they realized everyone was staring at them.

"It's time to start filming now. You guys ready?"

"You bet!" Hoseok screamed.

"I'm too broke...but anyways, let's just go." Sejin mumbled.

Tae took a deep breath, racking his brain to remember all the breathing techniques Namjoon had taught them recently. Regardless of how much his lungs inflated, he could feel the thumping of his heart against his ribs pick up speed. He rubbed his hands trying to get them to stop shaking.

Sejin led them through the corridor. Cold air blasted all of them when they opened the door leading outside.

The water slides sprawled in front of them in the outdoor pool. Slides with impressive heights cascaded down into the depths. Tae's hands shook harder just looking at it.
