GTFO

Chap 17: Advice

Mark's POV:

"Hey, Mark, isn't that Towel boy? Why is he walking around in circles over there?"

"I don't know. He does look depressed."

"Wanna go talk to him?"

"I don't know, he might ruin the mood." It was nice walking around the campus with Donghyuck, chatting about useless things and giggling and laughing at the shitty jokes he made. This had somehow become our daily routine, meeting up at 9a.m and walking around aimlessly for an hour before our classes started, and honestly it was my favorite time of the day.

"What mood?"

"Uh.. I don't know."

"Ew, you're being awkward again." He scrunched his nose up, his face looked adorable.
Damn, what would I give to just kiss you right now.

"I'm sorry, I can't help it." I mumbled under my breath. Thankfully, it went unnoticed by Donghyuck.

"Let's go. He practically saved our pathetic asses last time, so we do owe him."

"Fine."
The one time I get to spend time alone with him and Jeno's sorryass has to ruin it.

Donghyuck had already ran up to the sulky boy, snapping the other from his thoughts. He ruffled his hair and sat down beside him on the bench, his heart-shaped smile giving me butterflies and making my blood boil at the same time. Fucking hell, Jeno.

I walked briskly towards them to hear their conversation as curiosity got the best of me about his situation.

"What happened to you? You look like shit." Okay, maybe I was a bit salty.

"It's nothing."

Nothing? Nothing, my ass.

"Tell us, we'll help you. You look like you've been crying." Donghyuck tried to persuade him to spill out his troubles to us.

"You remember my roommate?"

"Yeah?" We spoke in unison. Look at us, we're so married. Except, I'm the only one with the feelings.

"He told me he didn't like me."

"What are you, a 6 year old girl? Grow some balls and make him like you then, dumbass." I had much higher expecations of him.

"I can't, the week is over, I'm supposed to move out if I failed to do so-"

"And you failed to do so." Donghyuck completed his sentence.

"Yeah.."

"Wait, but the last time I saw you guys, he seemed whipped for you and was blushing like crazy seeing you in a towel."

"I don't understand, either."

"Then, when are you leaving?" My tone unintentionally sounded annoyed. The salt didn't die down, yet.

"Mark!"

"No, I meant like, since he said that the other kid didn't fall in love with him, when does he have to leave this school?"

"Jaemin said he'll be leaving instead, in 2 days." I felt bad for him, he looked completely heartbroken. At least he had the guts to confess, I guess. This is why bottling up your feelings and living with them forever in your heart is the way to go.

"And the worst part is," Jeno continued, "I'm madly in love with him." His spoke as his eyes were brimmed with tears. Donghyuck patted his back and tried to console him.

"It's alright, I understand."

He understands? Which motherfucker broke Donghyuck's heart? I'll break their fucking skull.

"You understand?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, some thick-skulled, dense motherfucker still doesn't get that I like him yet. But, he most probably won't be able to return back my feelings, so I guess it's okay."

My heart hurts.

"Did you confess to him properly?"

"Not yet."

Thank god, I don't want him to accept your feelings.

"I don't think you should."

"Why?" Donghyuck asked, taken aback slightly.

"I-I don't think he'll like you." Shit, I panicked.

"Oh.." He looked down at his shoes, his cheeks growing red and his eyes getting watery. Did something happen?

Why didn't he retort back anything? I expected a comeback. Honestly, why the fuck did I even say that?

"Guess I don't deserve anyone then, huh.." He mumbled, "I'm going to class." He waved at Jeno and walked away, his hands hugging himself.

Shit, was I too rude?

"Mark, what should I do?"
Oh, right. Jeno's still here.

"I don't know, I'm not good at these kind of stuff. Besides, from what I've heard, aren't you supposed to be a playboy?"

"No. I actually like him." He furrowed his eyebrows together.

"Talk it out with him, I guess. Don't be scared to show your feelings infront of him, it'll get you closer."

Since when was I a Love Guru? I'm too much of a coward to actually use my own advice, but it's good advice, if I do say so myself.

"Also, ask him for the reason why he wasn't unable to fall in love with you, and if he isn't able to answer back, he probably has some other reason for rejecting you than not feeling the same way."

His eyes glinting with hope, he thanked me for my amazing advice before running back to the dormitories.
Love experts are shaking.

Right, what happened to Donghyuck?
Why did he leave so suddenly?
