You found mark a very funny and interesting guy, and you warmed up to him quite quickly, he was now your best friend, and you two hung out every day
"Good morning class, today we are gonna do a project, to make it more interesting this time, we are gonna do a research on animals"
You listened intently, animals being literally the only thing you loved in this wretched world
"We will be working in groups of two and i will be sorting you out, don't groan at me young man, I am your teacher"
"Chenle and Jisung Jaemin and Jeno Mark and y/n....."
You let out a heavy sigh "What!? Is being in the same group as me that bad?" Mark pouted You thought he looked kinda cute like that, but you weren't gonna admit it "Yes it is, the world is ending" You said, sarcasm dripping in your voice "Really?" This time he looked quite sad "Oh no oh no please don't take it seriously!" You exclaimed
"Pfft!! Lmao your face was all worried and- ow!" He rubbed his arm with a pout "Stupid mark" you muttered
After school
"Hey dude!" You felt a hand on your shoulder, making you flinch
"Oh I'm so sorry, are you ok?"
"Nah I'm fine, just... bad memories, yeah let's go"
You both walked in awkward silence before Mark broke it
"Umm so what's your favorite animal?"
"Cheetah, especially baby ones, they're so cute, and their faces are like Omg ahh super cute and adorable they just look so fluffy and it's so satisfying to look at them. Oh! And I like lions and tigers and cats! Well I like basically anything that is cat like tho."
Mark stared at you with a smile on his face, loving how your face lit up when you babbled on about cheetahs
"I'm sorry, I'm just really into them" you said after realizing you've said too much
"No no it's ok, I like them too," he said with a small wave of his hand "And I like you too" that sentence went unnoticed by you tho
"Really?! Finally! Someone who also likes them! Well you're actually the only one I've talked to since 10th grade, you know cos of the rumors and everything, but god, I am excited!" And there we go again
"You know, I thought you were like those bad gurls, you looked so u know, mean and stuff. Turns out, you're the cute type" mark said as he fumbled in his bag for his keys
"Me? Cute type? Pfft cheetahs are definitely cuter"
"Nah I'm being serious"
"And I'm Harry Potter. Just open that door, will you? It's getting cold"
"Yeah sure"
He opened the door and you saw this:

"Wow! It looks so comfy!"
"Welcome to my humble home" he joked
"Why thank you, mork" you bowed, laughing
"Mork? Why mork?" He pouted
"It's cute, and mark sounds too British, u know? Like I'm struggling with the a" you shrugged, looking around his house
"Just sit where ever you like, I'll be back in a minute"
You sat on the sofa, waiting for him. You saw him enter the kitchen.
"Hey dude, where are your parents tho" you yelled
"CANADA!" he yelled back
"So you live here alone?"
"Yeah, but they'll be back soon-oww!"
"Yo dude! Are you ok?" You rushed into the kitchen and saw mark holding his finger It was bleeding
"What are you doing!"
"Tryna chop a watermelon"
"Where's your first aid kit?"
"In the cupboard"
You grabbed the box and sat down next to mark at the kitchen table
"Give me your finger"
"It hurts" he whined
"Duh, you were using a knife"
You spread some medicine on it before placing a band aid on the cut "There, all done!"
Mark suddenly kissed you on your forehead
"Thank you" he mumbled
"I- wait what- no- yo dude what just ha-"
He leaned in and placed his lips on yours, it was a delicate touch that lasted no more than 2 seconds
"I oh wow umm unexpected... can I have one more?" you said shyly
Mark smiled
"What are you waiting for?" he held out his arms
And then the two of you started making out in front of the watermelon
