all sounds were muffled by the water as soon as jungkook dove in.
he swam deeper, blinking as his eyes got used to the salty water. he whipped his head in all directions, racking his head to decide which path to take. he decided to go to the left, because taehyung was left handed. and because he had a feeling.
soon enough, he saw his boyfriend's slim body, recognizable to jungkook from every angle. his dark locks, drifting, dancing delicately around his head.
"rrngh!" jungkook wasn't able speak, but his muffled sounds were clearly heard by the other, as taehyung's head turned to him. his eyes widened immediately, then his body relaxed visibly.
taehyung gave jungkook a helpless smile.
jungkook swam towards his boyfriend with broad strokes, eventually realizing what taehyung was trying to tell him.
his hand was stuck.
taehyung gestured with his free hand uselessly, trying to say, my sunglasses. tried to get them. hand stuck. help pull it out.
jungkook seemed to get the hint and moved over to the rocks, seeming to be deep in thought.
jungkook decided he would have to try and either break the rock, or push the heavy rocks to the side in order to save taehyung's hand.
he needed to be quick. taehyung was losing air, and jungkook could see the life leaving his once passionate and strong eyes.
jungkook quickly made his way to the smaller rock, attempting to pull and push it away. it nudged slightly, but not enough. taehyung grunted in pain as he tried to drag his hand out.
blood escaped from his skin in pretty ribbons, and taehyung's eyes rolled back.
he's unconscious. tae is fucking unconscious.
jungkook's chest hurt from the pain of his heart hammering against it.
he pulled harder on the rock, using the strength remaining to drag it away. he threw his head back softly in relief, then immediately grabbed taehyung, using his remaining energy to swim back up to the surface.
splash.
"thank god, thank namjesus. TAEHYUNG IS HERE WITH JUNGKOOK!!"
the others made their way, past the now roaring waves, to the unconscious male and his lover.
it was then that jungkook remembered: taehyung's glasses were still down there.
"they're my mom's," taehyung said, grinning.
"i love these so much. i've had them since i was little." jungkook loved it when taehyung was happy.
he found himself back under the surface, yells from above muffled.
"jungkook!! where'd you go?? come back up!"
he heard them. but he didn't listen.
he just wanted to get taehyung's glasses back.
jungkook swam back to the spot, the shine of the sunglasses catching his eyes immediately. skillfully nudging it out of the crevice, he attained them in his grasp, grinning in victory and relief.
he would bring them back to taehyung. taehyung would be so happy! he wou-
bonk. he heard a loud thunk, as if something heavy had hit something hollow, then his eyelids began to droop. he saw a faint cloud of red appear in front of him. wait. what? how could there be red water? i'm in the o-
everything went black.
just then, taehyung woke up, choking and spitting out cold water from his lungs.
"thank namjesus." he blank a few times, blurs of tan and brown revealing outlines of his friends. his mind cleared, and he realized someone was missing. his boyfriend.
"where's jungkook?" memories of him in the water, jungkook appearing to help him, came back, flooding his brain and making him sweat.
"where. is. jungkook." the others glanced around at each other, worried expressions on every face.
