It was that moment where Mark lost his mind, he kept doing his math like he always did when he was at a Physcotic state, high on drugs and alcohol, Haechans letter crumbled in his free arm. His tears, his heart breaking, his wrists bleeding. Joy hid at the farthest corner, not that he would hurt her but oppa had told her to stay safe when he went crazy. Her mother just stared at the TV with no ounce of realization. There was something about Mark no one knew about, he had hallucinations of Haechan, he'd speak to him for hours, hurt the hallucination, tend to it's injuries, in fact no one knew about him or his condition except for Haechan, Lucas and Joy.

"Why am I still fucking alive?!" Mark screamed, he had a bottle of beer in his hand, threatening to smash it on the image of Hyuck on his mind.

Little did Haechan know what he was walking into, he pushed through the door, dressed in ripped jeans and a soft yellow polo shirt. Everything happened in a flash of lightening, he didn't realize what happened until the thick droplets trickled down his forehead, the familiar heavy numbness weighing his small weak frame.

"B-Baby......" Donghyuck staggered, Mark got hold of his neck, his nails digging into the sides of Hyuck's neck.

"Why are you here?! You left me when I fucking needed you the most!! I don't need you anymore! Get the fuck out of my life!" He threw Haechan on the nearest fall, so much for coming to talk to the man he loved so much.

"Baby it hurts...... Ahhh my head." The brunettes soft whimpers triggered Mark, he lifted another bottle but before he can throw it at his wife Yuta came just in time to stop him from killing Haechan. The older guy punched Mark so he'd black out, that was the only way he could think of to stop the boy from doing something he'd regret.

"Young master are you okay?! Let's get you to the doctor." Yuta helped Haechan up, the younger shook his head with a hiccup.

"No. My mother.......she'd kill me.....Bring in Taeyong like always." With that the boy fainted in his bodyguards hands.

Donghyuck sat still next to Mark in a massive empty house, the hollow feeling of emptiness, the ghosts of the past haunting each corridor. The house was in ruins even though the exterior was beautiful just as the first day she was painted. Mark started gaining his consciousness, he sat up with a grunt.

"Joy? Joy! It's time for dinner. Go give Mommy her food." It were as if he didn't recognize Hyuck's presence, the older walked about calling his sister and mother but no one came. As if they had left him after his condition worsened, why? Why did anyone try to help him?

"Young Master, Taeyong is here." Yuta's voice made the beauty turn, she smiled weakly at the beautiful anime doll like man who always tended to his injuries in the past.

"You are back I see?" Taeyong started pulling out cotton balls to dab the blood off. "Should have returned after he died perhaps?" He sighed. "I know it was hard but.........You left him a very difficult time." The doctor mumbled, the older walked around like a phantom, discarded and lost. Haechans big eyes were watery, flowing with salty droplets.

"H-He wouldn't tell me anything how am I supposed to know?" He cried out.

"He's mentally ill Haechan, he would act like you're a burden but all Physcotic people crave for love." Taeyong wasn't wrong, no one knew what happened to Mark, no one.

"Yuta Hyung! F-Find Renjun for me. He'd know everything! Why have I been so dumb!" Hyuck broke down crying.

"On it." He nodded leaving the doctor in charge of the sick beauty.

Hours passed by, Taeyong left and Donghyuck snooped around to see where Mark was. There he was asleep with the letter he left behind, the falling remnants of their past, it was exactly where he had left it.

"Why won't you spend time with me?! You are barely even here!! Are you cheating on me?! Have you.....Have toy moved-" That was the first time Mark has raised his arm to the brunette.

"What do you want me to do to tell you that you are the only one for me?! Damn it Teddy!! Dad needs me to help with the company!! Stop assuming shit!" Mark had pushed him onto a wall as he left immediately after. That was the start of all the abuse.

"When......When did you start......start taking drugs baby?" Hyuck's head throbbed, he threw up just a few minutes ago but he was fine. Just a blurry vision but he had the ability to see the injections scattered on the floor messily.

Yuta held the stack of papers in his hands tightly, he sighed. He loved the little boy up there with everything he had, a brotherly affection. After all he watched him grow before his eyes, fall in love, come to him gushing about Mark, get married, get beaten by his husband, ran away from Mark and now was back in the boys arms. Suffering. Hyuck didn't deserve any of that but neither did Mark.

"Hyuckie? Here. I'll clean a room for you to stay." Yuta came in with a tight smile.

"Clean this but don't change anything. Please? Thank you hyung." Haechan cuddled next to Mark as he took the stack of papers, resting his head on the olders frame.

"Donghyuck!!! You're my everything!! My heart's lifeline!! I love you so much baby! Marry me!" Mark had screamed at the top of his voice one morning at the school assembly. He even sang a song playing the guitar.

"Yes!!! I will marry you silly baby lion! I love you idiot!" Hyuck ran into his arms making everyone coo and cheer for the couple.
