"So I met this girl down the street in the flower shop" Jinyoung said while sipping his sugary sweet tea "she's really pretty and kind, I like her and I wanna ask her out on a date,how about you guys?"

Jinyoung was out with BamBam, Youngjae and Jackson (Team Bottom™ as he likes to call them) at the mall, sitting at the café's table at the seat next to window.

"Cool, cool" BamBam said, impatiently waiting for his hot chocolate (he wasn't really listening carefully)

"Bam he asked us a question- never mind" Youngjae sighed and looked over at Jackson. "Anyways, back to the gay shit, how are you and Mark doing eh?"

"Great! We were at movies yesterday!"

"Romantic cliće?"

"No, it was called 'Satan's Hole' Bam"

"Was that the only hole Mark got in last night?"



Jackson was laying on his back, a phone in his hand and soju bottle on the bedside table. Clearly drunk.

"Jackson! I'm home!" Mark called out while he put away his college supplies and bag. But he got suspicious when usually cheerful Jackson didn't greet him.

He darted to their room and stopped when he saw Jackson's visibly limp body. Almost paralyzed even.

Many thoughts gazed in Mark's mind, like why is he drunk? did he argue with someone? is something troubling him? and etc.

Mark slowly went to Jackson and saw that he was looking at their old messages all the way back from when Mark was at airport. "Babe? Are you okay?"

Jackson stayed silent. World seemed to stop, Mark's breath quickened and he felt a lump in his throat, as if he knew what was troubling his lover.

"Jackson-" suddenly, Jackson started sobbing and crying uncontrollably. He was hysterical as he half-screamed inaudible words. Mark was shocked and wished he never said anything "J-Jackson! Please tell me what's wrong!" he said as he hugged Jackson tight.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I-I'm so-" and he began sobbing again. Mark was confused, but he noticed Jackson was all sweaty and drunk, so he carried him to the bathroom and prepared a warm, bubble bath, just as Jackson liked.

As he put smaller male in the tub, he got shampoo and body lotion and started scrubbing him gently.



"Jackson? babe are you awake?" Mark asked as he gently shook Jackson's limp body, which was lying on bed. Jackson only complied with turning around. Eyes still puffy.

Mark felt the atmosphere heave, same with his breathing. "Life's such a bitch Markie, such a god damned bitch"

Mark nodded "I know Jackie, I know" he trailed off while running his hand gently at his thigh comfortingly. "what's wrong? what happened?"

Jackson sat up straight and took Mark's long, slender fingers in his. "ever since we talked about your past lover-" he paused, regaining his breathing after a little hiccup "I just thought... I couldn't be enough though- though I tried so hard to convince myself otherwise... I couldn't... I always thought I could never make you get over him. Mark just- just don't say anything, because it won't be true. Let's continue this in the morning... please..."

Mark opened his mouth to say something, but stopped himself and lay down on their bed, showering Jackson with butterfly and eskimo kisses.
