"How do we go to others' dream?" I curiously asked him. I looked like a cat following her owner aigoo.

"There's a portal in each dreams."

"Woah really? Does that really exist? Where? Where?" I cling my arm to his. "Oh no, a cute cupcake is clinging onto me."

"Cupcake? Am not."

"Btw, we're here. Portals are just easy to find. When you notice a place which looks unusual then that's the portal to the other dreams." I made an 'O', he knows a lot.

"How do you know all of these?"

"I'm not only a Lucid dreamer. But also a Dream traveler. Because of curiosity, I was able to know a lot about dreams. My first time going to another dream is when I saw a place that is not most likely to be in a dream of a person. So I went there, that's when I realized I was already at someone's dream." I nodded at him. "Let's go."

I'm just holding his arm when we're about to enter the portal. I was so scared but it disappeared when my eyes saw it all.

Once we pass through that portal, the place changed and it's not my dream anymore. There are too many of them and I don't even know where to go first. "Woah, I didn't know that there is such place like this even in dreams."

"Jungkook-ssi! Let's go explore duh." I drag him to somewhere I'm not aware of what's in it. "Yah, not there..." He murmured but I ignored him. We enter a dream that is-

"Shit, what's that sound?" I saw a super weird thing that is a little bit vague. When I saw it clearly, I gasped from what I saw. Jungkook immediately covered my eyes and bring me to another dream.

"What the heck is that? Why are they---even in dreams?" I asked. He started laughing at me. "I told you, not there. Even in dreams I have encountered those kinds of dreams. It was a bit uncomfortable and it's not suitable for you." He shrugged it off and continue walking.

"Ey come on! How old do you think I am? I'm already 19! As if we're not in the same age." I scoffed and started following him again. "Still, not allowed for you. I'm older than you, so don't bicker with me." He stated.

"Tsk! By how many years?"

"Uh, just 1 year." I laughed. "Duh, we're almost in the same age so don't argue with me too." Tsk.

"Yah, I wanna go there Jungkook-ssi!" I shouted at him. He's making me angry at him again. "Alright. No regrets? Then let's go." His face looks so sarcastic. We entered the dream I pointed at.

"Omo!" I screamed when my eyes only starts seeing ghosts and other creepy elements inside this dream. "Jungkook-ah! Let's get out of here!" I ran away from that dream and I saw Jungkook coming out laughing.

"That was your choice Rosé. Are you regretting it already?" He continue laughing his ass off at me. What a playboy! "I don't fucking care Jeon Jungkook." I rolled my eyes before going to another dream that I think it's nice this time.

I guess a kid was having that nightmare. Poor little kid... Good thing I can control mine.

"Uwaa~ it's so nice here." My heart soften for a minute when I saw the beautiful scene. I'm finally seeing the Eiffel Tower here in Paris. "Nice choice this time." He butted in at the back. "I wish I could bring my cellphone here. I forgot to keep my phone with me before sleeping aish!" I stomped my feet.

"Poor Rosé."

"Jungkook-ssi, can we go here again next time? Take a picture of me beside that tower okay?" I used my puppy eyes on him. "It always depends Rosé. They are not like us who can control their dreams and maintain them anytime they want." I put on a sad face because of disappointment.

"Awts, that's a sad thing--" it suddenly went dark. And I can't see anything. "Jeon Jungkook! Where are you? Yah! I can't see." I waved my hands to get a touch of him but a pair of hand already hold my hands and stopped them from waving through the air.

"Jungkook-ssi what's happening?" I hugged him because I can't really see anything. Good thing he found me in the dark. "Calm down. I have my flashlight here." He uttered. A light coming from him turned on.

"Where did you get that?"

"I have it since then. I used this every time this happens during my dream traveling." He guide me to the exit of that dream.

"Why did it all went black? What happened?" I asked and I'm finally facing him. It's not dark anymore. I can see him again. His face looked nervous and it worries me.

"Yah choosy guy. Why aren't you answering me?" I waved my hand in front of him. "What happened out there? Why did it turned black?"

"It only means that the person who's dreaming is awake." He avoided my eyes. "Oh really? You really knows a lot huh. So it means th--" A realization fucking hit me.

"W-wait... When a person woke up after dreaming, it turns black? As in only black that you can't see anything at all?" My heart starts to beat rapidly. He only nods at me.

"So you mean.. every time they're done dreaming, you're all alone in the dark?"

"Uh yeah.." He answered while scratching the back of his hair. "But I go to other dreams to enjoy my stay." He added.

Jeon Jungkook is still avoiding my eyes. 

"But you said that you'll be staying in my dreams, then what if I woke up? You're leaving my dream to go wander at others?"

"Nah, I'm not leaving your dream... unless I'm leaving with you." He started walking away. No way... I felt a pang of guiltiness.

So every time I woke up, he's all alone there in the darkness? Waiting for me to come back? Is that also the reason why he looks so pale and he's sweating so badly?

"Wait Jungkook-ssi..." I called for him, he stopped from walking and turned to see me.

"Does that mean, you're all by yourself there in my dream? In the dark? Waiting for me?" I hesitated to ask the obvious thing, but I continued it. "Yes.." My eyes just wanna cry..

I went to hug him. "Why didn't you tell me? I should've come back earlier this day here to stay with you." I'm freaking guilty right now af. "I can't. It will just worsen the situation." He pat my back.

"But how? Is that the reason why you're sweating and looks so pale the moment I came back to sleeping?" I'm still not pulling out from the hug. I want his full answer because I know that he'll walk away again and try to ignore my questions.

"Suffocation." I looked up to see him. "I'm suffocating every time it happens. Yes I have my flashlight with me, and it's the only source I have. But still, I'm being suffocated that's why I looked like that earlier."

"I'm so sorry... I'll sleep more often alright? Don't worry." I reassure him, "No. Don't do that." But he disagree.

"Why not?" I pulled out from hugging him. "Rosé, you can't. That's why I don't want to tell this to you because you're too stubborn. And I have the guts that you'll insist to stay longer in your dreams." He's right.

"What's wrong with staying here longer?"

"Aish, you can't sleep forever like me Rosé. Live your life as a normal person once you're better and allowed to." He touched the top of my head. "This cute stubborn cupcake." He smiled.

"Cupcake my butt. As if I'll live longer. You perverted choosy guy!" I punch his abs. Ooh, it hurts. "Ow!" I reacted, it was so firm as fvck. "That didn't hurt." He teased and started running away from me.

I'm just wondering... how can he be this calm and bubbly person in front of me? He's acting like nothing is happening to him everyday I come back to my dreamland. I am not aware that he's suffocating there alone, while I'm just chilling when I'm awake.

What a shame Rosé.

The thing is, how can he bear his situation just for me? He's not planning to tell it to me just for my sake, if I didn't asked him today. What a selfish guy... A question keeps on bothering me.

Why Jeon Jungkook?
