Don't Let Go || m.t

Chapter 3

In the beginning, I thought we could be together, I thought I could make you happy, I thought you were happy with me, but in the end, you were never the same. I read the last female line. My phone rang and it was a text from Irene.

Irene: Mark

Mark: yes?

Irene: Mark

Mark: what?

Irene: Mark

Mark: what??????

Irene: MaRk

Mark: what do you want????

Irene: I miss you

Oh my god, haha.

Mark: I miss you too, I have to work now

Irene: :(

Irene POV

The fame life sure is hard, huh? I don't even do anything hard as that. I work at a grocery store, I get less than what Mark gets. Oh well, I still get a lot of money too. Enough for me to buy food.

In my room, I'm starting to do a new hobby that can keep me from boredom. Drawing and painting. I've already hung up a couple of paintings and drawing I made. Everything has a meaning. It could be about love, friendship, family, life; anything that has a meaning to it. And I also read books, even though it's not everyone's favorite.

Mark POV

It was a free day and I had the chance to spend a day with Irene. She said it felt like forever, but it wasn't that long. Just a couple of days. We're at my apartment where I live with my members, me and Irene had the place to ourselves. It was quiet but we like to cuddle on the sofa in front of the TV. A new drama aired and it was called While You Were Sleeping, I've been waiting to watch this since Suzy's been telling everyone in the company that this will be a good drama. And to be honest, back in my predebut days, I used to have a crush on her before I even dated Raenee. Suzy was really nice, really talented, really beautiful too. Beautiful as a flower, any kind of flower. "What's her name?" Irene asked. "Suzy," I said. "She's really not that pretty." Okay, no. "Oh, really? I think she's ugly too." I feel bad for saying that to Suzy. "I think I'm more prettier than her." She smiles at me. Well, I can agree on that. Yes, she is more prettier than Suzy. She is my girl after all. "Yes, you are!" I messed up her hair. "Hey! Don't do that!" She tries to hit me. "You're so cute, Irene! I can't resist!" I hugged her so tight, we both fell off the couch. I was on top of her. Our eyes meet and we were in silence. I lean closer towards her to kiss her.

"Mark!!" The door opens, it was Bambam.

Irene pushes me away and we both quickly sit up, pretending to stretch.

"What are you guys doing?" He said.

"Stretching." I said.

"You know, if you guys needed to be alone and do your thing, you could've just done it in your room, hyung." He slowly smirks.

"Aish, what do you want anyway?"

"Soonhae invited us for a dinner, she wants to get along with us more."

"Oh, okay." I helped Irene up and put my hands on her shoulders. "You go home now, okay? I gotta go."

"When are you coming back?" She looked upset.

"I'll let you know whenever." I winked. I held her hand and walked out the dorm until we reached outside where we let go.

"Hi, everyone! I'm so happy to see you all." Soonhae said. "Hi, Mark."

"Hi." I said.

"Alright! Let's eat some good food!" Yugyeom happily walks to the table.

We all ordered our food and drink our drinks. We talked about our daily idol routines, jokes, our idiotic sides.

"I'm going to the bathroom, I'm one out!" Jackson jumped out of his seat.

"I'm two out!" Bambam did also.

"Three out!"

"Four out!"

"Five out!"

And so on. When we got back from the bathroom to wash our hands, a waitress came by to give us our drinks. After getting mine, the waitress accidentally spilled Soonhae's drink on her.

"What the fuck! You stupid bitch! You need to watch what you're doing!" Soonhae yelled.

"I'm sorry." The waitress apologized repeatedly.

"It's okay, miss." I said to the waitress. "I'll take you to the bathroom to wash up, Soonhae." When we got there, I grabbed a wet towel and wet it with hot water. I wiped Soonhae's dress and made sure it doesn't have stains. "There, I think it's clean now." Out of nowhere, Soonhae suddenly hugged me.

"Thank you." She said.

"Um, you're welcome?"
