Jun's POV

It's been a week since I was discharged from the hospital. The doctor told me to not sing or dance, and to rest often so my wound would heal. Minghao told me what happened, but there were still so many things that I was wondering about.

For instance, why was Jeonghan hyung always going into the storage room? He would stay there for hours at a time and was in there longer than he was out here. It worried me, but I brushed it off. I probably shouldn't stick my nose in other people's business.

I was pacing around the living room. It was eleven at night. I should probably go to sleep now. It's really late. Jisoo hyung had fallen asleep next to me so I pushed him so that he laid flat.

"Good night hyung," I whispered, and I pulled a blanket over Jisoo.

I went into the room that I shared with the 95 liner hyungs and fell asleep and began dreaming.

"Awww, Jun, thank you so much!"

The girl grasped the small heart on the silver necklace I had just placed around her neck. It read, "Love", in Chinese. I smiled at her cuteness.

"Thanks for being mine," I said.

"Okay!" the girl exclaimed. "I was born in Seoul, on March 1, 1998, but my family moved to Busan when I was a baby. When I was thirteen, I went abroad and lived in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, where I went to an international school called Kaohsiung International School. That is where I learned Chinese and English. I moved back to Busan two years ago and started working at a small cafe. When I was a child, I played volleyball and was really into dancing. I loved watching dance videos and recreating the moves. I also really like baking, singing, and writing stories."

I smiled at her cute features, pretty smile, and long wavy dark hair. Her chocolate brown eyes glistened and sparkled as she smiled.

I woke up suddenly. This surprised me. I'd been having these types of dreams for a while now, and it's always with this girl. I don't even know who she is. Apparently I gave her this necklace and we were dating. The thing is, I've never even had a girlfriend, but it seems so real. I feel like I've actually seen this person and done things with them. It's weird though, because I have absolutely no memory of them. All of the dreams, when you compile them altogether, are like a huge story that have a chain reaction, and then they start to make sense.

I checked my phone. It was seven in the morning. Minghao was probably awake by now. I could probably tell him about the dreams.

"Minghao," I whispered, poking his pale cheeks.

"What is it Jun hyung?" Minghao said monotonously, not looking up from his phone.

"I've been having these dreams," I explained.

"What type of dreams?" Minghao asked, putting his phone away.

I began explaining everything. I told him about the silver heart necklace, the girl, and all of those memories that seemed so real but I had no real memory of. He listened carefully and processed everything, as if he had heard everything before. But there was still one question I needed to ask him.

"Minghao?"

"Yeah Jun hyung?"

"Is the girl in the dreams — the one that feels like is so real to me, real?" I asked curiously.

Minghao pressed his lips together tightly, as if he was trying to figure out what to say. He probably knew the answer but didn't know how to explain it.

"Why do you ask?" Minghao finally spoke.

"I want to meet her and be with her," I said. "I want to do everything we've done in those dreams. It all seems so perfect."

"Well here's your answer. She's real. And she's someone who still loves you."

Before I could say anything else, Minghao walked away and closed the door to the room he shared with Hoshi and Dino. I was even more confused.

If the girl is real, then who is she and where did she go?

Yuju's POV

I opened my phone and looked at the camera roll. Although it would bring back happy memories, it was still sad to think that she couldn't make anymore while she was in this state.

I scrolled through the thousands of photos I had. Some were just random photos I had screenshotted online to send to my friends. Some were silly photos I had taken while at KIS with my old friends. Some were childhood photos I had taken in Busan with Jeonghan. And then there were the ones that I had taken during my time here with SEVENTEEN.

And of course, the ones with Jun.

I glanced at those photos, tears trickling down my face as I realized that I would never get to be with him again. He wouldn't remember me. Nothing would be as it used to. I'd be depressed for the rest of my life and never talk to anyone except Jeonghan. And that thought hurt. A lot.

Since I didn't ever want to willingly walk outside and face the world, I relied on texting with everyone so I would have somewhat decent but depressing social life. I texted Jeonghan, Jisoo, and my old friends. Other than that, I shut everyone else out. It was too hard to continuously have people around me that reminded me of Jun and everything we had done together.

Jeonghan.

What is it Yuju?

Can you come here?

I'm playing a game with Dino. Can it wait?

Not really.

Okay dongsaeng.

I waited and ten seconds later, Jeonghan tiptoed into my room and sat on my bed with me.

"Come on Yuju," Jeonghan urged. "You can't be like this forever. You've lost so much weight that at this rate you'll be lighter than a ten year old child."

"So be it," I mumbled. "No one is ever going to see me again anyways."

"Seriously Yuju," Jeonghan said. "I don't want to force you to do anything, but I also don't want you to hurt yourself. You should get out there, at least once. Everyone is worried. PD-nim, SEVENTEEN, and CARATs. And most of all, me. I want my little sister back."

I cried slightly and hugged my older brother.

"I'm sorry Jeonghanie," I sobbed. "It's too hard without him now."

"Shhhh, it's okay Yuju-ah," Jeonghan whispered. "I'm here. I'll always be here if you need me."

And that's how we stayed. I slept with my tear streaked face, but at least I had an angel of a brother, always there for me to help me.
