It was just passed midnight in Korea. All the boys were fast asleep except for Youngjae, who was on the computer playing video games and Jackson who was still in China.

Youngjae suddenly had to pause his gaming when he heard the code outside the door being punched in as each button made a beeping sound.

"Who could that be? Jackson Hyung doesn't come back until 2 days. Omo! Are we getting robbed?" Youngjae shot up from his seat and ran over to the corner of the room to where Jaebums baseball bat was placed. He hid in the corner as the door was successfuly opened.

He heard footsteps and then the light switched on. A guy walked passed him with his hood up not noticing Youngjae was in the room and was heading towards his and Mark's room.

"YAAAHH S-STOP RIGHT THERE!?" Youngjae shouted, holding the bat out infront of him, ready to swing at the guy if he had to.

He noticed the guy stop in his tracks and then slowly turned around.

"Your still awake?"

"Mark Hyung?" Youngjae asked confused.

"What?" Mark spoke dryly.

Youngjae gasped "MARK HYUNG!" dropping the bat on the floor he ran over to Mark, throwing his arms around his neck and hugging him tightly.

"Yah! What's going on out here Youngjae-ah? Can't you think of others that they're sleeping!?" Jinyoung groaned standing in his room doorway, his hair looking like a nest, one eye opened while the other squinted.

Jaebum then opened up his door "Kiddo what's going on?" He asked Youngjae, rubbing his eyes and yawning.

"Mark Hyung is back! Mark Hyung is back!" Youngjae jumped up and down still hugging Mark.

"Aisshh. Let go of me!" Mark pulled out of Youngjae's hold irritated. "I'm tired. I'm going to sleep. Don't disturb me!"

"Mark?" Jaebum suddenly was wide awake and noticed Mark standing in the living room.

Jinyoung's eyes also shot wide open. "Mark Hyung!" Jinyoung walked out and followed Mark towards his bedroom. "Why didn't you tell us you were returning back today? I would have come-"

SLAM!

Mark shut the door in Jinyoung's face.

"Wah!" Jinyoung put his hand up in a fist about to curse, then remembered Mark is older than him. "If he wasn't older than me.." He grumbled and just slapped the door with his hand flat on the door.

"What's the matter with him?" Youngjae mumbled with a pout.

"Kiddo let's leave him be for tonight. We'll question him tomorrow and don't go into your room. Come sleep in my bed tonight okay?" Jaebum told Youngjae.

"Yeh Hyung." Youngjae nodded and went to his computer. "Let me just finish off my game." He unpaused it and continued to play.

Jinyoung began to walk to his room.

"Hyung can you switch off the light whilst you go passed?" Youngjae asked.

"No!" Jinyoung said and closed his bedroom door shut. He was being petty, his way of getting Youngjae back for waking him up.

Youngjae sighed heavily, paused his game the 2nd time switched the light and went back to his gaming again.

Meanwhile, when Mark had entered the room, he saw Coco was laying in the middle of his bed. He dropped his bag on the floor quietly, took off his hoody, sunglasses and cap and picked Coco up gently.

She woke up and noticed Mark was back and she barked and licked his face.

"Hey Princess! Did you miss me? I missed you. I'm sorry I left you behind. Did Appa take care of you well?" He cooed to her chuckling and hugged her to him. He then lay down and let her play around him as she lay on his chest, playing with his fingers.

And that's how Mark fell asleep. With Coco resting on him.

Meanwhile back in LA Alice was standing in the kitchen with the report in her hand. "YOU LIED TO ME!? YOU TOLD ME I COULD DIE IF I STEPPED OUT THE HOUSE! YOU TRAPPED ME INSIDE ALL MY LIFE! AND IF THAT WASN'T BAD ENOUGH WHEN I TRIED TO MAKE FRIENDS YOU TOOK THEM AWAY FROM ME TOO! WHYYY MUM! WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME!?? AND YOU NEVER TOLD ME I WAS A TWIN!"

"Where did you find that out from?" Her mother asked worried.

"I went through the documents in your office!" tears were now streaming down Alice's cheeks. "I Left that day with Mark because I needed to get away. I told him to take me away. YOU BLAMED HIM FOR RUINING MY LIFE!? HE DIDN'T RUIN MY LIFE MOTHER! YOU.. YOU RUINED MY LIFE! WHY DID YOU RUIN MY LIFE!? ARE YOU EVEN MY REAL MOTHER? I WOULDN'T BE SUPRISED IF IT TURNED OUT THAT YOU AREN'T EVEN MY REAL MOTHER!" Alice spat out.

"I'm.. I'm sorry. I only cared about you. I LOST YOUR SISTER I COULDN'T BARE LOSING YOU TOO. I HAD TO KEEP YOU SAFE!" her mother shouted back.

"YOU WEREN'T KEEPING ME SAFE! YOU IMPRISONED ME! AND BECAUSE OF YOU AND FATHER... THE FATHER THAT'S NEVER EVEN HOME! I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT'S OUT THERE. YOU CAGED ME LIKE AN ANIMAL AND NOW I'VE HAD ENOUGH." Alice began to storm out.

Her mother caught her by her arm to stop her. "Where are you going Alice!?"

"Dont touch me!" Alice pushed her mother away, causing her to fall to the floor. I need to see Mark. I need to apologise to him and let's hope to God he forgives me, or else I don't know what I'm capable of doing" She glared down at her mother.

She stomped off with the report in her hand, out the house and to Mark's.

She rang the door bell for a good minute, until Mark's mother finally let the gates open for Alice.

Alice wiped away her tears quickly as she walked down the garden and to the front door.

Marks mother opened the door.

"Hi Mrs Tuan.. Ermm... is Mark" Alice said avoiding eye contact with the woman.

"He's not here." Mrs Tuan simply stated.

"Oh. Well when he gets back. Could you tell him I dropped by and to please call me?" Alice asked sniffling.

Mrs Tuan sighed heavily. "Alice. He's not here. As in he's no longer in LA. He's gone back to Korea."

"WHAT!? W-When?" Alice felt her heart drop.

"This morning." Mrs Tuan told her.

Alice fell down to the floor and burst into tears infront of Mrs Tuan as Alice mumbled through sobs how Mark will hate her forever now and it's too late.

Mrs Tuan felt bad and helped Alice up to her feet and brought her into her house.

"There There now Alice. Everything's going to be alright. Want me to call your mother?"

"NO! I-I mean I'm-" Alice went all quiet.

"Okay. I know. How about you sit here.." She placed Alice down on the couch and brought a blanket for her. "And i'll make you some hot chocolate and we can have a little chat hmm? You like hot chocolate right? Mark loves it."

Alice wiped at her tears and sniffed, a blush coming to her cheeks. "Mrs Tuan.. I've never had Hot Chocolate before.. but if you're making it. I'm sure it will be lovely." Alice gave a small smile as she pulled the blanket closer to herself.

Mrs Tuan walked off into the kitchen to make the hot chocolate.

Alice recognised a familiar smell on the blanket. She inhaled the smell deeply as her eyes closed and she realised it was Mark's cologne.

She then hugged it closer to herself as she tried to think of a plan on how she was going to get to talk to Mark.

Maybe Mrs Tuan can give me his number that he uses in Korea

She thought to herself, but then worried what if he ended the call the second he heard her voice when he picks up the call.
