Love Again ( Mark x NCT Dream )

Chapter 9

"Are you kidding me" Mark said a little bit irritated. There should be a limit to their these jokes. They are making Mark a mess and it's not good. Mark knows they are not serious about him and he have to tell them to their face right now.

"Look , I know you 6 are the biggest or should I say the only troublemaker of the school but you should stop now. I know you guys have lots of fun teasing me but you should not cross the limit with that when you are not even serious about it. In the end I am still your teacher. As long as I know you guys one thing I can say is you guys love each other alot and so you should not mess with me like that" Mark said.

"Are you done?" Jisung said. "Or there is still Anything else you want to ramble about?"

"Are you guys not understanding? I am done with you guys pretending like you like me, I know you all are doing this to annoy me, and I am scared that in the end I will be the only one to be hurt by it" Mark tried to reason.

Everyone's expression softened then. Jaemin who was sitting beside Mark took his hand and held it gently. "Why do you think that we are not serious about you? As you said about us being the troublemakers or bad boys, we all agree with that , but we do not agree with you thinking we are playing with you" He said gently and sincerely as Mark stared at them with surprise and kept quiet listening to them.

"We know we create lots of trouble for others in school because of our parents' power but did you ever saw us flirting with others except you?" Jeno said and Mark did realised that they only flirt with him.

"The very first time we saw you we all fell in love, it's hard to believe how 6 people can fall in love at the same time with the same person but it's true" Renjun said as Mark's eyes widened. They love him? For real?.

"Mr. Lee please believe in us and give us a chance, we really want you to be our boyfriend so please let us" Chenle begged.

"You don't know how much we want to hug you, spoil you, and want to do every little thing that lovers do together" Donghyuck said his tone pleading.

"We know that you like us too? It was pretty obvious with your reaction and also last night when you were drunk you said it yourself that you find us very hot and attractive so why don't you give us a chance?" Jisung said.

"We will not asking you to say 'I love you' to us immediately but we can start with just dating and then developing it to another step, if that's too much then we can go to some dates first but please do give us a chance Mr. Lee" Donghyuck pleaded.

And suddenly Mark was being attacked by six pairs of pleading faces. By their talking he was sure those 6 were sincere. He wanted to give them the chance but a relationship between   students and teacher.... it's not going to be easy.

"Umm... I am not gonna lie , I do like you guys but I am your teacher and you are my students, it's nev-" Mark was cut off by Jaemin.

"Stop right there. None of that student teacher taboo shits. We all here are already 18 , fully grown adult , besides we are the one who confessed and took the first step so you don't need to worry about that" Jaemin said.

"Jaemin is right. Also even if people found out you don't need to worry about getting fired from your job or getting criticized because we already took care of that long ago" Chenle said.

"What do you mean you took care of it?" Mark asked confused.

"Well, we already told our parents that we are in love with you, they obviously approved" Jisung said.

"And we knew you will give this excuse so we told them that and ask them to talk to the school authorities so that you won't have any problems in future for being in a relationship with us" Jeno continued.

"And so they took care of it, so you can openly date us in school and no one will speak anything bad about it, no teachers, no students, no school staffs, no principal" Donghyuck said and Mark looked at them surprised.

"So you are saying that everyone in school knows that you guys love me? Every student? Every teacher? Yuta Hyung too?" Mark asked still taking in the shocking information.

"Yep everyone but you, you are quite slow for a teacher aren't you" Jisung teased.

"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?" Mark said with a pout. "But why did Yuta Hyung didn't told me if he knew?" He mumbled to himself but others heard him.

"Well maybe he didn't wanted to make you uncomfortable, and maybe he knew you don't know we are serious about you, afterall he catch on things real quick unlike someone" Donghyuck said with a teasing smile.

"Aren't you guys insulting me too much? Do you still want to date me or not?" Mark said deadpaning ar them.

Hearing Mark they all widened their eyes and panicked. "No no we definately want to date you, sorry we were just teasing you, but can you blame us you look so cute when you pout" Jeno said making Mark blush.

"So? What's your decision?" Chenle asked with hopeful eyes.

"Well...as we both like each others then let's date" Mark said and everyone break into cheers. "But!" Mark said loudly to finish what he wants to say.

"What is it?" Jisung asked with a smile.

"But I don't want to rush it, so we will take it step by step? Like go on dates first, know each other better like that kind of stuff you know" Mark said.

"Of course baby, we will not rush you or force you to do anything that will make you uncomfortable but one thing that not gonna change is us flirting with you, even at school" Jeno said and Mark nodded shyly at the last part.

"Also we want to date you openly in school if that's okay with you" Donghyuck asked.

"Well I am fine if what you said about taking care of all the problems is true, you guys obviously wouldn't be in trouble as you like almost own the school if I say but I won't like to be treated differently by my students and colleagues" Mark said.

"We promise you that won't happen, everything will be same , the only thing different will be you returning our feelings and maybe some teasings by your close people in school like Mr. Nakamoto or some students, and that won't be a bother right?" Chenle said and Mark nodded.

"So can we hug you?" Renjun said and Mark nodded shyly. And soon enough he was being hugged by all of them one by one as they whispered in his ear about how happy they are with Mark whispering back the same.
