Dandelion(Taekook)
Episode:01
There are certain things in life you never see coming.
A plot twist in your favorite show. An unexpected bill. Park Jimin calling at 5 in the morning.
Jeon Jungkook was asleep.
Not peacefully asleep. Not the kind of sleep that comes from a clear conscience and a soft pillow.
The kind of sleep that comes from working on a client's tattoo design until 3AM and then face planting directly onto the nearest surface.
He put a pillow on his face.
Jungkook opened one eye.The contact name on the screen made his other eye open too.
He stared at it for three full seconds.
Jeon Jungkook
This better be a emergency.
The screen exploded into a group call before he could even process what was happening. Six faces. Different cities. Different levels of destruction.
First — a man in a silver silk pajama set, sitting upright in bed like he'd been placed there by a professional. Dark circles. Murderous expression. One hand already raised like he was about to file a formal complaint with someone.
That was Min Yoongi. Music producer. Seoul. A man who treated sleep like a religion and was currently watching it get disrespected in real time.
Min yoongi
I will leave this call.
Second — a man so handsome it felt personally offensive. Full face. Perfect hair. Sitting comfortably in a gorgeous Paris apartment surrounded by film scripts like he had all the time in the world. Because for him it was 11PM. A completely reasonable hour.
That was Kim Taehyung. Film director. Paris. Perfectly awake. Perfectly fine. Annoyingly unbothered.
Kim Taehyung
Jimin why are your eyes like that.
Kim Taehyung
Like you're about to sell me something.
Third — a man who had clearly been asleep approximately four seconds ago. Hair going in six different directions. Glasses on crooked. Something had definitely been knocked over off screen based on the crash sound nobody acknowledged.
That was Kim Namjoon. Songwriter. Seoul. A genius who could not function before 9AM and was being asked to function at 5.
Kim Namjoon
Is everyone okay. Did someone die?
Park Jimin
NOT YET BUT GIVE IT A MINUTE —
Fourth — and this needed a moment of silence — Kim Seokjin. Actor. Seoul. The man was in full dramatic mode at 5 in the morning. Sitting straight. Expression theatrical. One hand on his chest like he was already performing for an audience of thousands.
Kim Seokjin
I was in the middle of a very important dream. I was accepting an award. They were about to say my name Jimin. THEY WERE ABOUT TO SAY MY NAME.
Kim Seokjin
DOES IT MATTER —
Fifth — Jung Hoseok. Dance teacher. Rapper. Seoul. The only person on this call who looked like a functional human being. Snapback on. Fully awake. Grinning like this was the most fun he'd had all week.
Jung Hoseok
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE ISN'T IT A BEAUTIFUL DAY —
Three people told him to shut up simultaneously.
Jung Hoseok
WOW. WOW OKAY. 😭
And then there was Park Jimin himself. The architect of this disaster. Sitting cross legged on his bed in his pajamas, hair messy, eyes wide and innocent like he hadn't just committed a crime against everyone's sleep schedules.
Park Jimin
Okay guys I just —
Park Jimin
Yoongi hyung I have something important —
Min yoongi
Is it life or death.
Park Jimin
....Emotionally yes.
Jungkook watched all of this from Busan with the energy of a man who had accepted his fate. Tattoo ink still faintly staining his fingers from last night. Blanket pulled up to his chin. He was going to let this wash over him like a wave and then go back to sleep.
And then someone new connected to the call.
Paris flickered on the screen.
And Jeon Jungkook stopped breathing for exactly three seconds.
Kim Taehyung. Still beautiful. Still annoyingly unbothered. Blinking at his phone like the world was a mildly interesting place.
It had been six years since Jungkook had seen that face properly. Not a photo on Instagram. Not a name in a groupchat. Actually seen him.
Something in his chest did something he didn't have a name for anymore.
He pulled his blanket up higher. Said nothing.
Park Jimin
OKAY. Now that everyone is here —
Kim Seokjin
I was NOT here willingly —
Park Jimin
GUYS. Please. Just. Listen to me for one second.
Something in his voice made everyone pause.
Jimin took a breath. And then with the most devastatingly practiced expression known to mankind.
Park Jimin
What if I got really sick someday.
Park Jimin
Like. Really sick. And this moment. Right now. Never came back.
Kim Seokjin
Jimin are you —
Park Jimin
And I was lying there. In my final moments. Thinking about all the times we could have made memories together.
Park Jimin
All the trips we never took. All the laughs we missed. And I looked back and thought... we never went. We never just... went somewhere. Together. All of us.
Even Hobi had stopped smiling.
Park Jimin
I don't wanna have regrets guys. I really don't. And I don't want you guys to miss Jimin either. You would miss me so much. I know you would.
Park Jimin
So I was thinking. One trip. All seven of us. One month. Countryside. Just us. Before life gets even more crazy. Before we lose each other completely.
The kind that meant everyone was feeling something.
Jungkook was staring at his blanket.
Jung Hoseok
I'm in. Obviously.Did you even have to ask me.
Kim Seokjin
...Fine. But I'm getting the biggest room.
Kim Namjoon
Yeah okay.Yeah. Let's do it.
Min yoongi
...Send the details.
Jimin's face broke into the most enormous smile.
Park Jimin
You're coming right?
Kim Taehyung
Jungkook. You're coming right?
The same voice. After six years. Saying his name like no time had passed at all. Like it was the easiest thing in the world.
Jungkook forgot what words were for approximately four seconds.
Kim Taehyung
Uh.. is that bunny on the call or not?
Kim Seokjin
He slept I guess.
Kim Taehyung
Damn̈ what took you so long?
Jeon Jungkook
(I should be asking you the same.)
Jeon Jungkook
No..just..work.
Kim Taehyung
Woah workaholic guy.
Soft. Easy. Like breathing.
Jungkook looked away from the screen.
He had just agreed to one month.
Jeon Jungkook stared at his ceiling in Busan and thought..
Jeon Jungkook
(I should have pretended to be asleep.)

Let me know how was the first episode???
Episode:02
Seven screens. Gone. Just like that.
Jungkook sat there in the dark of his Busan apartment staring at his phone like it had personally wronged him.
He put the phone face down on the mattress.
Jeon Jungkook
*Quietly*What did I just do.
Nobody answered. Because he lived alone. Because that's what he did. He built a quiet life in Busan with tattoo ink on his fingers and nobody's name in his chest and it was fine. It was completely fine.
Jung Hoseok
✉️ TRIP TRIP TRIIIIP ☀️☀️
Kim Seokjin
✉️I already called the biggest room just so everyone knows.
Kim Namjoon
✉️Jin hyung we haven't even picked a place yet.
Kim Seokjin
✉️Doesn't matter. Biggest room. Mine.
Park Jimin
✉️🥹🥹 I love you guys so much.
Min yoongi
✉️Send location and date. I'm going back to sleep.
Kim Taehyung
✉️This is going to be fun 🌿
Jungkook stared at that message for a long time.
Kim Taehyung. Who laughed like breathing. Who said his name at 5AM like no time had passed. Who had absolutely no idea.
Jungkook locked his phone.
Jeon Jungkook
*Whispered*Idiot.
He was talking about himself.

Episode:03
While six people in Korea were dying a quiet death Taehyung was sitting comfortably in his apartment with a cup of tea and three unfinished scripts.
Normal Friday night honestly.
He put his phone down after the call ended and just sat there for a moment.
He leaned back into his couch and looked around his apartment. Beautiful as always. Big windows. Paris skyline doing what Paris skylines do. He had worked so hard for this life. He genuinely loved it.
So why did "countryside" and "all of us" sound like something his chest had been waiting to hear.
He picked his phone back up.
Hobi was already sending voice notes. Jin had made a formal declaration about room sizes. Namjoon was trying to be reasonable and failing.
Kim Taehyung
✉️This is going to be fun 🌿
The chat exploded with reactions immediately.
Taehyung smiled and scrolled back up.
Jungkook hadn't typed anything.
Just that one barely there "Yea" and "Just work" on the call and then nothing. Radio silence.
Taehyung remembered Jeon Jungkook. The one who used to spam the groupchat at 2AM. The one who never shut up.
Kim Taehyung
✉️Jungkook you better not bail on us.
The chat swallowed his message immediately. Hobi reacted. Jin ignored it. Namjoon sent a thumbs up.
Taehyung stared at that silence for a little longer than necessary.
Looked at his phone one more time.
