Second Best(2yeon/Najeong version)

Bros Before Ho's

Nayeon

" Hey Sparkles can I come in?" Mark asks apprehensively.

" I figured they'd send you in first" I grin as I wave my hand to usher him in" You'd be the one I'd be more likely to forgive."

" Its because we both like to glitter" Mark flops in the chair and slaps his hands on the side.

" Must be that."

You can sense the tension in the air but Mark is probably the best at masking his discomfort coming in here today was difficult but I needed a sense of normalcy Jinyoung didn't notice I'd been gone all night or if he did he never said a word.

After I left Jeongyeon's house I grabbed Emma and cried myself to sleep I didn't mean to sleep with her I honestly just wanted to see her but once she touched me it became impossible to stop and there wasn't even a part of me that wanted to the lines in the sand are becoming blurred.

Walking in the office was far more difficult than I could have expected knowing prying eyes and Jinyoung's friends surround me makes me want to cower but I have done enough of that I work here now and I needed a reprieve.

People's lives are in my hands- at least that's my excuse.

" What can I do for you?" I ask after a few moments of awkward silence.

Mark grows serious as he shifts forward with his elbows on his knees" I am worried about you I know you may think you can't talk to me but you can."

I believe that he cares for me I trust that he has good intentions but I also know if push came to shove their whole" bros before ho's" bullshit would be in full effect.

" I am doing fine" the last word thrips me a little I immediately think of Jeongyeon.

" How's Jinyoung?"

I glance out the window and mull over my words" Adjusting I guess- we both are."

Mark waits for me to look back at him before speaking I know this is hard on you more than anyone you moved on you found out about the affair you were happy and now he's back it can't be easy hell I can't even pretend to know what you are feeling but he's been through fucking hell if you are in pain imagine what he must have gone through in the year he was being held I am not asking you to forgive him" Mark pauses " I am just asking you to let us help."

My eyes widen at his last request" Help? How do you plan to help?"

Mark tilts forward" Jackson and I are your friends Nay. Jinyoung can stay with me for a while you can take some time off or whatever you need but all he could talk about on the plane back was seeing you he never mentioned the other girl."

I huff" Like you'd tell me anyway" I wait for him to refute me but he won't.

The stories of infidelity run rampant in the teams but we all ignore it we look the other way because no matter what they'd never tell the wife who's blissfully ignorant so many of my friends found out after their husbands returned that while they were holding down their homes their husbands were fucking everything that walked some even after they'd made love to them again its the worst slap in the face and I thought I'd been immune to it.

" No I wouldn't have told you..... but I would have made sure you knew."

" What the hell does that mean?" My hands come down on the desk with a smack and Mark looks a little startled good" I am so tired of these riddles and rhymes you all talk of honor, valor and code but you are all hypocrites!" I stand and the chair flies out from under me.

" Nay" he says hushed.

" No!" I yell and walk over to him" You don't 'Nay' me... I am tired you can all tell me that in all time you spent with Jinyoung for that year you never suspected it? You can honestly sit there and tell me you had no clue? I am sure more times than you know he said he was with you how does that make you fell?"
