Gorgeous: Tzuyu x Mark

Chapter 4: Texting Buddy

Tzuyu's POV:
It's been a few weeks since I've had my encounter with Mark. I've been really busy with performances, so I haven't had the time to talk to him, or really anyone besides Twice in particular. I pass the Got7 dorm often, sometimes wondering if Mark was in there. I don't know why I do, but I feel like I can be myself with him around (although I get nervous alot). The performance shows, interviews, practice, etc have been tiring for Twice, so we were given a free day today. As usual, I was the only one up. I often slept the earliest, and woke up the earliest too. The girls would wake up at least 2 hours later, so I went to the bakery for breakfast. Getting dressed in a burgundy sweater and skinny jeans, I headed out. I walked for about 10 minutes, humming Girl's Generation and BTS. When I finally arrived at the bakery, I took note of all the cakes and bread there were. Luckily, there weren't a lot of people around, as it was still pretty early. Grabbing a chocolate cake (I love chocolate if you guys didn't know), and coffee, I greeted the cashier.
"Annyeonghaseyo, how much will this be?" I asked, placing my food on the table.
"Good morning, this will be $6.50," the cashief replied. I began reaching for my purse, before someone stopped me.
"No need, I'll treat," Jinyoung told me, winking. Before I could protest, he turned to the cashier, adding his own coffee and sandwich.
"That'll be $13.25," the cashier told him. Jinyoung took out a $20 bill, handing it to the cashier. After taking the change, Jinyoung handed me my cake and drink.
"Kamsa hamnida, I'll eat well. You really didn't have to Jinyoung sunbaenim," I profusely thanked him. He smiled, saying that it wasn't a big deal. While walking back, we held up a conversation. We talked about Twice, performances, anxiety, etc. It started from the professional topics to random ones about Star Wars, and puppies.
"Since the girls are still sleeping, why don't you eat with us?" Jinyoung asked, referring to Got7.
"I don't want to be a bother," I replied, nervous that they wouldn't like me.
"Oh come on, they'll love you. Besides, you already met Mark and Jackson from what I've heard," Jinyoung tried to convince me. I immediately blushed, reliving what had happened that day. After minutes of begging, I agreed to go.
The minute Jinyoung opened the door to the living room, a tiny, white dog rushed to me. It was Coco, Mark's dog.
"Coco! Where are you?" Mark called out from his room. He walked out, and noticed Coco all over me.
"Coco!" he yelled, taking her off me. He immediately began apologizing, before saying good morning.
"It's okay really Mark sunbaenim, I love dogs. My family has Gucci," I replied, mentioning my dog. Then, Mark greeted Jinyoung, when all the other members came out.
"GOOD MORNING!!" Youngjae exclaimed. He really is the sunshine of Got7. The other members began greeting me as well, with me bowing back in return. Jackson still had his smirk, making a subtle motion between Mark and I. I mouthed "no," making a playful frown, and returned to eating my cake.
"Soo, how'd you two meet?" Jaebum asked, referring to Jinyoung and I.
"Oh, we went to the same bakery, and Jinyoung insisted on treating me. Now I have to owe him my life," I joked.
"Yea, she now has to obey every order I give her," Jinyoung replied, playfully nudging me.
I noticed Mark frowning slightly before returning to his usual smiling face. What was that about? I shrugged it off, replying to something Jackson asked me. We all talked for a good hour, before I recieved a text from Jihyo asking for me. I reluctantly said bye to the members and bowed before heading out the door. After talking to Jihyo about the next performance, I decided to chill in my room. While rereading Harry Potter, I heard a "ping" from my phone.
Don't you think you owe me your life for all I've done for you😉? ~ unknown
Ping! I recieved another text.
It's Mark by the way, hope I didn't creep you out from the first text! ~ unknown
I smiled, adding "Mark" to next to his number on my phone.
I thought you were a pervert oml :( such a shame, my sunbaenim being a creepy person😭 ~ Tzuyu
I bit my lip from the text I sent him, hoping it wouldn't drive Mark away. Then I heard another ping!
aww it's depressing that my favorite person thinks that low of me😭😭 ~ Mark
My heart fluttered immediately from that. I was probably blushing like crazy. Favorite person?
aww I have an admirer❤️ ~ Tzuyu
Ping! Ping! Ping!
The rest of the day, I continued talking to Mark...
