It was Tuesday, still the beginning of the week and the day after the concert. I had so much fun at the concert but I was trying to figure out why Mark acted so weird afterwards. I woke up at 7 am, showered, got dressed and when I was about to make myself some breakfast, my phone rings.

"Who's calling me?" I looked at the caller ID; it was Mark, "Hello?" my voice sounding hoarse.

"Hey!" Mark said happily.

"Oh hey Mark! What's up?"

"Damn! Your voice" Mark chuckles, "Have you ate anything yet?"

"No, not yet. Why?"

"I'll treat you to Starbucks. Be ready in 3 minutes." he hung up. I was totally speechless. Starbucks was my favorite place to get coffee. In 3 minutes as promised, he rings the doorbell; I answer it.

"Hey, you" I said smiling.

"Hey. You're ready?" I couldn't help but to admire him. He was wearing a black snapback, a white long sleeve shirt, light blue jeans, and timberlands. He looked handsome no matter what outfit he is in.

"Y-yeah, I'm ready." So we then left to eat breakfast at Starbucks. We were inside, talking and laughing, and we took a couple of selfies and he posted them on Instagram. Minutes later, his phone was already blowing up.

"Damn already?" I asked chuckling.

"Yeah, look at the comments" I looked at him and his face was slightly red. I took his phone and started reading the comments. 'Oppa, are you two dating?' 'Wow, she's really pretty😍' 'You two should date' 'What's her name?' 'Does she have an Instagram?' 'I ship you two😘~.' I couldn't believe that they were posting those types of comments. Could me and Mark really make a good couple? I brushed it off and I went on my phone and reposted the same pictures.

"Are you ready?" Mark asked.

"Yeah" and so when we were walking out, Mark suddenly grabs my hand and finger locks with mine. My heart started pounding fast; I was getting butterflies. Why did Mark do this all of the sudden?

Mark POV

My feelings for Camarin just keep getting stronger and stronger. I want to tell her how I really feel but I'm too shy to do it. *sigh* I just got to find the right time, just like my dad said.

"Wanna go to our usual hangout tonight?"

"Sure!" She said smiling. She was too cute.

"Cool! It's a date!"

End of Mark POV

We finally made it to school just in time to enjoy our free period with the rest. The boys were talking about their upcoming comeback. The bell finally rung and we all went to first period. The same things went by as usual just faster. When I was about to leave with Mark, Jackson grabs my hand and pulls me into his embrace; making sure Mark was watching.

"Jackson, what are you—"

"You wanna go out tonight?" He asked giving a smirk. I pulled myself away and looked at him.

"Sorry Jackson, I'm gonna be with Mark tonight." Jackson then glances at Mark and glares at him, "Maybe next time" I said smiling cutely.

"Alright..." He lets go of me and I proceed to leave with Mark.

"Are you still on this?" Jaebum asked.

"Yeah I am" and then Jaebum smacks him behind the head, "Shit, what the hell was that for?" Jaebum just glares at him and leaves to go to dance studio with the rest of the boys.

Later on that day

Mark and I were on the pier, having a lot of fun.

"Wanna walk on the beach?" Mark asked.

"Sure" So with that, we left the pier and started walking along the shore of the beach. We were splashing in the water like little kids, not caring about our clothes. Mark decides to sit along the shore and he makes a spot in between his legs so I sit down and I rested my back on his torso. I swear it feels like we're dating.

"This was really fun" I said as I rested my head against his neck.

"Yeah..." and then he nervously bites his lip.

Mark POV

I started getting this nervous feeling in my stomach. I really want to tell her how I feel. I wrapped my arms around her and rested my face on top of her head. *sigh* Let's face it, I don't have the guts to tell her. After sitting in that position for a few more minutes, I let go of the embrace, stood up and said,

"We should get going" as I held out my hand.

End of Mark POV

Okay, I was really confused. Mark is acting weirder than usual but I brushed it off. We stopped to get ice cream first and then he brought me back home.

"Tonight was really fun" I said smiling.

"Yeah, it was fun" He said smiling back. I then walked up to him and wrapped my arms around his waist, with my head in his chest inhaling his scent and cologne; I felt so safe in his arms. I then felt his arms wrap around my body, bringing me closer. After we held each other for a couple of minutes, he lets go, cups my cheek, looks into my eyes and says,

"See you tomorrow" I then placed my hand on top of his, embracing it.

"See you tomorrow." With that, Mark walks to his house and I went in my house, took a shower, changed into pajamas, and went to sleep.
