So I wrote this over a week ago and never published because I couldn't think of a title. While I think this title is dumb, it's all I got. 😕
"Hey Mark, I need a favor?" He frowns it's not very often Donghyuck's manager calls him, especially for a favor.
"What's up? I'll see what I can do." He hears a relieved sigh on the other end.
"There is something wrong with him. He completely shut down last night and he refuses to leave his bed. You all have that photo shoot today and it looks like we will have to reschedule but, he really needs a friend." Mark drops the spoon he was holding back into his half eaten bowl of soup.
"Did something happen? Do you know why he's like this?" He asks as he's putting on his jacket.
"No clue. He won't talk to me. I know he cried. From the look I could get of his face he looks like he was up all night sobbing." Mark slips his shoes on and grabs his keys and wallet.
"Can you send a car for me?" He asks as he walks out his apartment door.
"I'm in front of your building now." He quickly heads to the elevator.
"On my way."
Mark and Donghyuck have always been close, in fact the closest members of all the NCT groups combined. He wonders if there was something he missed, or something Donghyuck kept from him? They usually tell each other everything but there are exceptions. He doesn't even want to think about something bad happening to one of his family members but he knows that's a possibility too.
Mark punches the code for his front door and enters the dark apartment. His manager left to talk with the others about postponing or the worse option would be that they just exclude him from the shoot.
"Hyuck? Hyuckie?" Mark says as he slowly opens his bedroom door. Sure enough he sees a lump under the blankets.
"Hey." He says softly as he crawls right into bed with him and puts his arm on his shoulder. There is a little shuffling before he feels his arms wrap around his neck as he buries his wet face there. Mark sighs as he rubs his back.
"What's going on baby? It isn't like you to be sad. You are my sunshine." Donghyuck sniffles before letting out a gut wrenching sob. Mark can only just hold him through this if he isn't ready to speak.
After around ten minutes, his breathing calms and he looks up into Mark's eyes. Mark is devastated by the state of his best friend.
"Baby, what is it? You know you can tell me anything." Donghyuck plays with the hair on the back of Mark's neck.
"I've been sleeping with Johnny." He whispers. Mark freezes.
"Wait what? Like sex?" He asks dumbfounded. Donghyuck nods.
"It was, I don't even know what happened. We were just watching a movie one night and he kissed me. Then it progressed from there and we've been fucking since." Mark is shocked but he knows that's there is more for him to tell so he will ask small questions to hopefully keep him talking.
"How long?" He whispers.
"Six months." Mark gasps.
"Wow, you guys hid that well. So are you like boyfriends or just fuck buddies?" Donghyuck sucks in a shaky breath.
"We never made it official, but I just thought he felt it too. Mark I love him so much that I don't know if it will ever go away." Mark frowns and moves the hair off Donghyuck's face.
"This may be a stupid question but why would you want to stop?" Donghyuck lets out another big sob on his chest.
"I, uh, I went. Fuck." Mark rubs his back again.
"It's ok baby, take your time." He waits a few more minutes as he calms himself, offering soothing words as he waits.
"I went to his apartment. I wanted to see him, but as I got out of the elevator his door opened and a woman walked out." Mark frowns, this doesn't sound like something Johnny would do.
"Ok, it could have been anyone, did you ask him?" Donghyuck shakes his head.
"I didn't have to. The hickeys on her neck and the uneven buttons on her shirt told me everything I needed to know." Mark tightens his grip on Donghyuck.
It's only a few minutes later that Donghyuck's phone lights up, displaying Johnny's contact. Of course they just ignore it. He tries at least five times before giving up. He sends a string of messages that neither bother to look at before Mark's phone starts to ring. He looks at Donghyuck.
"Answer it. Maybe it's related to work?" He says softly. Mark reluctantly picks up, hoping he can stop himself from laying into him.
