UNB IMAGINES ☆ Reader x UNB 《 Discontinued 》

Marco ♡ 》 Collaboration

You were a newbie solo artist from Rainbow Entertainment and you alongside other rookie groups were invited to participate in a variety show with your sunbaes.

You were on your way to the location with Marco. Known for his killer smile and being to rank 5th in The Unit. You looked up a lot to him despite you being a singer and him a rapper.

"Hey?" Marco called out as he noticed you fidgeting with your fingers. "You alright there?"

"A-ah..nae, sunbae-nim." You bowed awkwardly which made him laugh a little to himself.

"How cute." He commented before looking out the window.

Your eyes widened at his comment and quickly looked the opposite way to hide the embarrassment that was becoming evident on your cheeks.

You actually liked your sunbae a lot. He had such a cheerful personality and he waa kind to anyone. He may be a little arrogant but you always thought that he had something to be proud of.

As you got to the said location, you noticed how most of the sunbae-hoobae partners are of the same gender. This made you and Marco stand out.

"It's Marco hyung from the unit!" You heard whispers from all directions.

"I wish they referred to me being from H.B.Y or UNB instead of being from the unit alone." You heard him say as his attention was directed away from the others.

"But look at his hoobae, what a bombshell." A few of them whistled at you.

Before you can even react, you were tugged by the wrist away from them. You looked at the person responsible for doing so and you tilted your head as you saw a slightly irritated Marco.

"S-sunbae?" You looked at his hand again then back at his face.

"Let's just head inside before you get even more disrespected here." He said as he lead you in the building.

You noticed how he never went away from you but his usually cheery self was hidden today. Was he upset about the unit comment or was he upset with the guys hitting on you?

I highly doubt that it's the second one. You told yourself in thought.

Moments passed and the show was about to start. All sunbae-hoobae partners were gathered together as the hosts introduced the concept of the show.

It was your first time on a variety show and it made you extremely nervous. You felt your palms getting sweaty and your feet kept tapping on the floor.

"Relax." You heard Marco say in the calmest voice. There was a bit of seriousness to him but you can see how he got back some of his cheerfulness back.

"Thank you." You whispered as you gave him a small smile.

The hosts then proceeded to tell all the guests that there will be impromptu collaborations. Your eyes widened at this statement since you didn't actually prepare anything.

"You can drive inspiration from one another." The hosts encouraged. One by one, a pair came up to the center and did a somewhat passable stage.

Then it came to you and Marco.

You looked up at him, hoping to see him somewhat as nervous as you were but he almost seem determined.

He glanced at you and smiled. "Sing anything~ anything you can think off." Hw urged as you gripped tightly onto the microphone.

A sad yet angsty tune started playing.

"You said that you'll stay, but why did you end up leaving? Where did the promises you made go? All those words, have they only been empty lies? Does it satisfy you to see me like this?" The words trailed off your tongue like magic.

Marco got the feel from it and started to add his own rap. "I did my best to protect you when you weren't looking. Fought everyone who tried to stab you in the back yet you still ask me to be with you upfront? Don't you see that I am sincere but you kept looking pass what I can only do."

The mood was getting heavy. You felt it too and was about to backout but you continued to sing. "I wanted to ask what were the promises you made? It was different from what I remembered but you still insisted on what your mind forced you to recall. Don't you see that you just made me more miserable but without you, I'd be nothing but in pain." You looked at him as you got too into the song.

He faced you as well and you saw the intensity in his eyes. "Look at me and tell me  again who is lying. Cause even when I look at you, my heart still beats hard. I did everything I could to show you that I really like you but even through this rap, you couldn't see pass through it."

And the participants cheered. It was the besy impromptu but you saw that Marco's mood had soured up again. For the rest of the show, he didn't say a word.

Even when it was about to head back to your dorms. He didn't talk to you.

"Are you alright...?"  You asked him, worried for what he was thinking about.

He shifted awkwardly and gave you a simple yes reply.
