Author's POV

"What?" Sa ra noona asked as Mark stood up and ran out of the restaurant, ignoring the calls he got.

"Mark!" Jackson shouted as he stood up and wanted to run after Mark but Jaebum was quick enough to hold Jackson back. "But, hyung, he-"

"He'll be fine, Jackson. You should stay with Yoongi." Jaebum said as Jackson kept staring at the door Mark ran out through, biting his lips nervously. "We'll just go home. You guys have fun."

"Jackson, I'll see you later." Sa ra noona said as she hugged Jackson who hesitantly hugged her back because he was still worried about Mark.

"Noona, Mark, is he okay? Did I do something?" Jackson asked.

"He'll be fine, Jackson. Take care." She said as she patted Yoongi's face and left with Jaebum.

The valet brought the car out and Jaebum tipped him and began his journey home.

"There he is." Sa ra said pointing to the direction she saw Mark.

Jaebum pulled over and Sa ra ran out of the car, to her brother.

"Mark." She said as he turned around and looked at her. His face was stained with tears and his eyes were red.

"Noona." Mark sobbed out as Sa ra engulfed him in a hug. "I'm sorry."

"My baby." Sa ra said rubbing his back and trying not to cry. "There's nothing to be sorry about. "

"Noona." Mark cried. "It hurts so much."

"Its going to be okay." Sa ra said as tears ran down her cheeks. "Let's go home."

She guided Mark to the car and shut the door after he was seated. Mark put his head on his knees and kept sobbing. Jaebum sighed and drove off after his wife was seated beside Mark. She kept on consoling him, telling him everything would be okay.

10 minutes later, Jaebum was parking in the driveway and as soon as the car came to a halt, Mark opened the door and ran inside.

"God, Jb, I don't know what to do." Sa ra said crying.

"Sweetie, he's going to be fine." Jb said hugging his wife.

"That's what I tell him every time but I don't even trust my words." Sa ra said. "He's hurting so much. I hate it."

"Baby, look at me." Jb said as he held her shoulders and she looked at him. "Mark is going to be fine. Trust me when I say Jackson likes him. Did you see the look on his face when Mark ran out of the restaurant? He was so worried."

"Yeah, I saw that but he's with Yoongi." Sa ra said. "They said they likes each other."

"Baby, everything will be fine." Jb said as he smiled at her.

She sighed and nodded. "I'll go check on him."

"Its fine, I'll go. Go to the room." Jb said as he pecked Sa ra and she went in.

Jaebum knocked on Mark's door and when he didn't get any response he went in and saw Mark on his bed, his face to the bed and his body vibrating.

"Oh, Mark." Jb said as he went to sit on the bed. "Mark, please don't do this to yourself."

"I'm so hurt, hyung. My heart hurts so much." Mark cried.

"But Mark, they're not even dating." Jb said.

"Didn't you hear them confess to each other? They kept playing love and that stupid Yoongi kept touching Jackson and rubbing himself all over him."

"You've really fallen for him." Jb said smiling.

"Well, duh." Mark said as Jb chuckled at his sassy behavior.

"Mark, you've not even told him you like him yet.  How's he supposed to know?" Jb asked as Mark sat up and cleaned his face.

"I'm scared." Mark said sadly.

"Scared because of what happened with Taehyung?" Jb asked.

"Mostly about getting rejected." Mark said as Jb nodded. "I like- I'm so in love with Jackson and I want to tell him so bad that I find it hard being without him, that I go to bed every night thinking of him and just wanting him to wrap his arms around me but I'm scared of him not feeling the same way about me. I don't know what I'll do if he rejects me."

"Mark, if he rejects you, you'll move on and meet someone else." Jb said. "But what if he doesn't reject you? What if Jackson feels the same way about you and just doesn't realize it yet?"

"But that can't be true." Mark said.

"When you ran out, the look on Jackson's face was a look of fear, concern, love." Jb said as Mark just looked at him.

"Really? Then why didn't he come after me?" Mark asked looking down.

"I told him not to." Jb said. "He was about running to you but I said no. He so bad wanted to."

"I didn't mean to worry you guys like that." Mark said feeling guilty.

"No, its fine. I totally understand you Mark." Jb said as Mark nodded. "Mark, please, don't think of anything negative."

"I'll try." Mark said as Jb kisses Mark's forehead.

"Goodnight, Mark. "

"Goodnight, hyung." Mark said as Jb left.

Mark felt a little bit better after Jaebum left. He contemplated if he should tell Jackson how he felt or not. But he just needed to go to bed and leave everything for the next day.
