C H A P T E R 28 : A needed distraction

-----Donghyuck-----

I didn't want to be here. In my own house. I wasn't exactly mad at my parents, I understood them, but I couldn't help but deeply in my heart wish that they would've tried harder. I know, I know, what an ungrateful bitch I am. They did try hard. But I still wasn't satisfied.

The two insisted for us to stay at my house for the night, the time only being eight when our conversation ended but the sky was already pitch black. With reluctance, I agreed that we should stay. They offered guest rooms for the boys but I declined for them when they didn't respond to them quickly.

Jaemin was currently in the shower with Jeno (yeah, weird since Jaemin is always a bit of a... prude) while I laid in bed (I know shocking) with Mark behind me, his arm around me, and his face buried in my neck.

I couldn't stop thinking about everything and while any other day this position alone got me distracted, it wasn't quite working today. I wished it did because I hated that all I could think about was what the future would bring to our table.

"Stop thinking about the negative," the Canadian whispers in my ear.

I don't respond, I stare at the full-body mirror that was right across from us. His eyes are closed and he looks relaxed. I wondered, how and why is he so relaxed right now. I know that the last couple of weeks he hadn't gotten this situation out of his mind, just like us, but now he was... relaxed?

"W- Why... How- How are you so fucking at ease right now?!" I exclaim, angry. I sit up and frown at him. He didn't look too startled, he just looked at me. A full minute passes by without an answer. "Seriously! Answer me!"

"Babe, Hyuck," he sits up and takes my hand in his.

"No, don't 'Hyuck' me right now. My mind is going one thousand miles an hour and you seem to not care at all about this!" I was mad, I was crying, I was infuriated. Was I the only one that actually cared about us? Was I wrong all along?

He frowns. "You know that's not true. You know that I care, that all of us care, and you know that I love you guys a lot, so much that I feel like dying at the simple thought of losing you guys." His voice remained calm but there was tension in it and it broke at the end of the sentence. "I want to stop thinking about losing you guys while you're still here with me. I want to stop thinking about dying and I just want to be happy with you guys right now," while he can, he wanted to say but didn't, "and not take it for granted. I've thought enough about the what if's and I just want to focus on the now."

Silence. I stare at him and he stares at me.

I drop my head in my hands and sob into them.

I feel arms around me and he brings me to his chest. I sob and sob, he just rubs his hand on my back. I hug him back and bury my face in his neck. At some point, I hear the door to the bathroom open and footsteps come close to us. I will my cries to subside.

"You didn't actually mean that, right? You don't believe that I don't care about all this, right?" Mark says to me, taking my face in his hands. His eyes welled with tears but they didn't escape.

I shake my head. "I'm sorry I even thought about that. I'm... stressed, I guess."

I look back and see the two boys. Jeno was shirtless, only wearing some of my black sweatpants. He was sporting a hickey, making me blush slightly at the thought of what had been going on in the restroom while I was here... panicking. Meanwhile, Jaemin was wearing a plain white t-shirt and plaid white and black pajama pants, his hair dripped water and he had a worried expression on his face.

"What's going on?" He asks, putting his towel aside and sitting beside me.

"It was nothing, don't worry about it," I smile at him.

"I don't think it was nothing, Hyuck," he answers, furrowing his eyebrows. He takes my hand and rubs circles on it.

I turn to look at Mark and he was looking right back at me. "Donghyuck is thinking about the situation too much. Justifiably so, and he got a little frustrated by it."

"I'm fine now, I'm just pissed that my parents couldn't do anything." I close my eyes tightly. "Ugh, I don't mean that I'm being ungrateful, it's just that I wish more had been done. I really thought they would be able to do something, and I feel like I gave you guys hope but everything just went south-"

Jaemin grabs me by the neck and presses his lips against me. It takes me a second for me to realize what had happened but once I was aware, I move my lips against his. One of my hands grabs the back of his neck and the other grabs his waist roughly, so much of my pent-up emotions going into it. We kiss like never before; rough, quick, and with so much want.

"I think we all need a distraction," he whispers against my lips before looking at the other two with a slight smirk.

I didn't even have the time to be shocked at how Jaemin was acting. After all, this was sweet, innocent Jaemin. Our Jaemin, and he had never been one to initiate these actions.

He pushes me to lay on the bed and straddles my hips, going back to kissing me. My hands traveled from his thighs up to his waist, grabbing him hard.

"You want to?" He asks me softly, smiling at me.

This would be our first time. 'Could be the last, too...' a voice deep inside my head whispered.

"Desperately," I answer him, bringing him back for a kiss, flipping us over without disconnecting our lips.

We break apart momentarily so I can take mine and his shirt off. His hands travel all over me before I begin to his cheek, his jaw, his neck, down his throat, to his torso, and right above the hem of the pants he was wearing. I look up at him and smirk. He really wanted this (if you know what I mean).

I momentarily look to the side where Mark and Jeno were also at it. I grab Jeno and kiss him roughly, his head turning to me as the eldest kissed his neck. Through peripheral vision, I saw Jaemin looking at us in desperation. Needless to say, he looked horny.

I teased him more and he waited impatiently.

"Hyuck, please..." He said, gritting his teeth, panting.

Who was I to deny?

I guess there were some ways to take things off my mind...


A/N: I never thought I'd be doing this but I think it was necessary. I am not experienced AT ALL so sorryyy 😭
