"I think Namjoon is really affected by your death. Maybe that's why he rules it as a suicide, that's the simplest explanation, he can't take in anymore pressure," Minseo said as they were driving back home in her car.

"No, Namjoon isn't the type of guy to jump to conclusions. He isn't the type to break down under stress. He's rational, level-headed. There's something going on here."

"Maybe he's changed? Everyone has their own limits. Maybe your being gone hurt him so much that he gave up on being logical already."

"You don't know Namjoon as well as I do, ok?" Seokjin replied, clearly agitated. Deep down he was pissed, yet worried about his best friend. What if his death really killed Namjoon inside? What if their friendship group will never be the same, happy herd of bulletproof boys anymore? He would never forgive himself for tearing apart their bond. He sincerely wishes for them to continue being happy, living with the fragments of memories he left in their hearts. But what can he do now?

What else can a ghost do but watch?

"AHHHHHHHHHH WHY IS THIS THING SO FAST," Hoseok screamed his heart out as the rollercoaster accelerated downwards, the impact to big for this lil softie to take.

"Hobi hyung will you shu- OH MY GOD." Namjoon yelled.

The 7 of them were sitting on a rollercoaster ride at the amusement park, and before that, they'd already made a bet : the one who screamed the loudest would have to skinny dip in the pool later at night.

Only Taehyung and Jungkook were relatively silent throughout the entire ride. The rest were close to peeing their pants. (they only have one braincell).

"All of you have to skinny dip!" Taehyung and Jungkook yelled, pointing at their cowardly hyungs with pride.

"Hey I only screamed because Yoongi was clutching my hand so tightly-" Seokjin started.

"Oh my god Jin hyung stop lying!" Jimin butted in.

"It's true!" Seokjin laughed, and Yoongi beside him turned his head to hide his embarassment.

Later that night...

"It's so cold!!!!!" Yoongi said, shivering in his cat printed boxers.

"Yoongi, cats huh?" Namjoon teased.

Jungkook cheekily walked behind Seokjin and pulled the band of his balenciaga underwear, causing it to spring forwards and slap his butt.

"AHHHHH-AHHHHHHH JUNGKOOK!" Seokjin screamed.

Hobi wrapped his arms around his body, jiggling and dancing hysterically to Ke$ha's tictoc playing in the background as a way to warm his body up.

"Ok guys we jump in at 3. 1! 2 ! 3!"

Splash.

Screams were heard from the 5, desperately trying to scramble out of the pool because of how cold it was.

"The two of you need to try this too!"Jimin yelled to the 2 maknaes.

"Noooo we're good!" Taehyung said with his thumbs up.

"Let's get them!" Namjoon said, and the 5 of them started chasing the 2 maknaes, eventually catching them and throwing them into the pool.

"THIS IS MY FAVOURITE SHIRT" Jungkook screamed in agony.

The rest of the members laughed at the maknae's cuteness. Once they're body temperatures adjusted, they all jumped into the pool together, goofing around and shoving each other's heads into the water.

"YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY!" screamed hobi after jungkook and jimin attempted to pull off his undies.

"Crackheads," Seokjin chuckled silently, leaning against the wall of the pool and watching his friends have a good time, and having no clue that this would be one of the last moments they will ever spend together.

"I'm sorry," Minseo said quietly.

"No- you don't have to apologize. Maybe you're right. Maybe he is demented," Seokjin said quietly while looking out the car window at the lonely streets. It was really late and minseo's car's headlights seemed to be the only source of light illuminating the darkness. Everything felt eerie and unsettling. Or maybe it was just Seokjin?

Minseo pulled up to her driveway and Seokjin felt as if he had reached home.

"Can I stay here for the night?" Seokjin asked with a solemn expression, obviously torn inside. But he kept his positive exterior, trying to be the optimistic, happy-go-lucky hyung that he's always needed to be.

"Yeah sure," Minseo replied. She could tell that Seokjin was depressed, even though he covered it up well. "You don't have to act alright with me you know? you may have to play that part with your friends, but not with me."

Seokjin didn't say anything back, but deep down he was grateful for her. To have met such a kind being like her. Her presence was enough to make him feel comfortable and he felt like he could be his true self around her.

"Hey Seokjin, do you wanna play a game?"

"It's pretty late isn't it? You should sleep."

"It's ok I'm not that tired. And I really wanna cheer you up."

"You know you don't have to, right?"

"Yes, but um, to be completely truthful......my friend bought me this last week...and i really wanted to try it out," she held up an average-sized bottle of tequila, grinning suggestively. "So...what do you say?"
