Was it how he finally got to talk to Mark without pretending?

Was it how his husband held him?

Was it about the kiss?

Whatever it is, it's bothering Donghyuck so much that he couldn't focus on whatever show he was watching on the flat screen. Lowering the volume, he heaved out a heavy sigh and leaned his back from the sofa. His eyes were glued at the plain ceiling, being deep in his thoughts and hoping that he would find answers from his questions.

"Where did I even have the confidence to say that to him?" Donghyuck couldn't help but groan in annoyance in regards to the situation that he had with Mark back in school. "Let him find Lucas' partner? God, I'm pretty sure Lucas will definitely leave me the moment he finds the one for him. Why did I act as if I could change that?"

And at the top of the list as to what's distracting him, it's the kiss.

It's badly ruining his mental health.



"Who does he think he is?" Technically, his husband. However, Donghyuck didn't want that to be the reason as to why his heart couldn't stop beating fast whenever the intimate moment he had with Mark would play inside his head.



He needed a different distraction. Something that could take his mind off from how he missed being intimate with his lover. How Mark looked so damn attractive with that annoying smirk on his face. How the jealousy was evident when Mark begged Donghyuck to break up with Lucas, it flattered him to be honest. Donghyuck definitely, badly, needed a different distraction, especially when the kiss they shared would always appear inside his head like a broken CD player.

And right on que, he remembered something during the talk that they had. Something that was enough to make his blood boil. "The audacity to even bring up our son in our conversation."

The hardest part in pretending is acting like he never had a son to begin with.



"So, you talk to yourself now?"



Donghyuck flinched from his place when he heard a voice echoing inside the living room. He had his hand placed on his chest to hear his fast heartbeat, only for it to calm down upon seeing his friend that just came out from the kitchen.

Donghyuck couldn't help but utter a curse word because of how startled he was. "Fuck you, Jaemin."

The said male let out a laugh, always finding it adorable whenever he manages to piss Donghyuck off. "So, whose son are we talking about?"

With eyes widened, Donghyuck froze from his seat. He was hesitant to say a word, afraid that it might out himself. God knows what will happen if he does expose himself that he's not from this timeline. It took him a good minute to finally say something, "You heard me?"
