Mark Lee is the resident bad boy and a well-known bully at school. But despite his rebellious façade, many girls still fall for him. He doesn't, however, fall in love with anyone because he believes he's just not capable of loving someone.
Or so he...

Hello, fellow readers and NCTzens!
First off, this is my very first story and first Mark Lee fanfiction.
And since it is only my first time writing (or typing), it might suck or something. I'm actually kinda afraid no one will like it. I'm quite nervous. Hah. But I hope you guys would like it. 😊
Anyway, this story is fully in Mark's point of view (with a few exceptions from Special Chapters), for reasons you will know by the middle. I don't know if there are rules to writing a fanfiction, and if there are, I don't know them yet because I am just a beginner. But, I swear there's a good reason why I chose Mark as the first-person point-of-view in this story.
ALSO: I am not that knowledgeable about the education system in South Korea (I did a little research though), so please forgive me if I got some things (or everything) incorrect. I, however, have modified other things to my liking so as to fit the story. After all, this is fictional and anything can happen in a fiction. 😉

Notes and/or Warnings:
- (MUST READ!!!) I love music so much that I included quite a lot of songs in this story
- But don't worry because they're all credited to the original creators and singers
- But there are some here that are used in a very fictitious manner so if you find them, please don't sue me 😭
- I have a very good reason why I used them in a very fictitious manner
- You'll find out once you read this
- So please do enjoy this story with all its imperfection
- Anyway, there's one whole Appendix at the end of this story that is solely about all the inspirations of this story, so yeah (please don't sue me, I'm begging you guys 🥺)
- Chapters of this story tend to get longer as you progress, so please bear with me
- I swear, I tried my best to make this story as interesting as I could, please look forward to it
- Cursing (minimal), since Mark is a bully
- I swear it's fluff, but there's quite the drama (for good reasons)
- Uniform is from SOPA, but let's just pretend that that's not his school in the story
- School is just an (unnamed) ordinary high school (with lots of students and sections), totally not SOPA
- School system is different from the usual, it's like college, and I made it like that just because I wanted to
- Kidding, I made it like that so it would fit the story because everything there happens for a reason
- Not all members are included, so I apologize in advance if your bias is not here nor mentioned
- I did try to include most of the members one way or another, so you'll be surprised what their roles are in this story (I also even included some EXO members)
- Age and birth years are different, but Mark is one year older than the rest (however, they do not regularly call him "hyung" just because)
- I do not own most of the pictures, I've gotten them on the internet (unless stated otherwise) so CREDITS to ALL the OWNERS (thank you, thank you, thank you so much for letting me use them even though I never actually asked you personally)
- However, I did edit some pictures and those I can say I definitely own, you'll know which pictures they are once you read this
- Storyline is purely fictional
- There are also films, movies, and series here that are mentioned (or even featured) but again, they are all credited so please just don't sue me 😣
- I'm just trying to portray a "real world" vibe in this story
- Like you know they live in our world because they actually know these films, movies, series, and songs (get what I mean?)
- Mentions of suicide, depression
- So again, this story contains a lot of songs and I suggest for you, readers, to listen to them while reading this story for the best experience (they're all credited, I swear, please, please don't sue me 🙏🏻)
- There will be an indicator which will tell you what to listen to and in which part of the chapter/story
- If you are a slow reader who likes to take in every single word, then I suggest for you to repeat that particular song while reading that particular part
Okay, that's about it!
Hope you'll like it! You will find some similarities from popular movies in here, but that's because this story is inspired by them. I will not tell yet which movies they are so you guys won't be spoiled.
