"Are you even listening?" Jisung huffed, gripping his notebook in frustration.

"What?" Donghyuck lifted his eyes from the mobile phone game.

"I've been asking you to quiz me for the past forty seconds and you didn't even answer." he pouted.

"You could of just asked someone else-"

"Look around. Do you see anyone? No."

In fact, they were the only boys out of their friend group standing around in the hallway this morning.

"Are you in a bitchy mood because Chenle's sick?" the male questioned.

"Shut up." he murmured, eyes drawing back to his notes, pressing his head against the wall. "I'm gonna fail this test."

"You're not." Jeno's warm voice wavered through the air as he came up to the two.

"At this rate, yeah." the bleached blond shot back, his notes hitting his knees as his arms dropped.

"Where are the others?" the raven haired questioned, looking around the area.

"Mark and Jaemin aren't here yet, Renjun is somewhere, and Chenle's sick." Donghyuck answered, reverting his attention back to his game.

Sighing, Jeno walked over to peer over Donghyuck's shoulder.

"How are things with Mark?" he asked.

The younger teen turned his head to face the other.

"I guess there's progress being made." he shrugged.

"You seem very unenthusiastic about this."

"It's just," Donghyuck gripped the back of his phone, fingers tightly curling around the small device. "-he's such an idiot."

"Jaemin told me about the thing that happened on valentine's day."

"Yup, that was a total fail." the tanned boy's head hung low.

"Are you guys official?" Jisung popped in, completely giving up on studying. "You and Mark?"

"Um, no?"

"What else did you do on valentine's day, besides the fail?" Jeno added on.

"We ate watermelon and played video games?"

"No cuddling, no sweet talk, no kissing, no nothing?" the older teen's eyes widened.

"Don't bring up their kissing Jeno, it gives me war flashbacks." Jisung placed his hand on his temple, shutting his eyes, acting as if he was in a state of crisis.

"What?" Donghyuck narrowed his eyes at the youngest.

"The club." was all he replied, shaking his head a few times, trying to rid the sinful image from his mostly pure mind.

The tanned male's lips parted into a silent o shape, and he couldn't help but blush at the thought. Key word thought, not memory, he couldn't really recall the event.

Jeno cleared his throat. "Anyways, you guys are still not crossing the line."

"What line?" Donghyuck questioned.

"The bro zone border. You guys still act like best friends slash bros, though you have romantic feelings for each other, but never express them." the older teen explained, folding his arms across his chest. "Why is that?"

"What do you mean?" the younger teen tilted his head in confusion.

The other let out a deep, audible sigh.

"You'll find out sooner or later."

"You wanna fight?" Mark snatched the last cookie out of Donghyuck's grasp once again.

"Try me bitch." the other scowled, holding his fists up.

"For fuck's sake, it's just food." Jaemin commented as he peacefully ate his lunch.

"Just food?!" the duo exclaimed in unison.

"Are you kidding me Jaemin? You're the one who tried to steal Jeno's cheese stick and kissed him!" Donghyuck brought up, reaching over the table, attempting to grab the cookie again.

"You guys are so annoying." Renjun complained. "Why don't you just split the cookie?"

"Do you think I'm gonna share with him?" Mark pointed towards the tanned boy.

"No, because you're a fatass." the younger hissed.

"Excuse me-"

"Can you guys settle that somewhere else? We're trying to enjoy our lunch." Jeno rolled his eyes.

"Fine." Mark gripped Donghyuck's wrist with his free hand, tugging the younger out of the noisy cafeteria.

"So?" Donghyuck raised his eyebrows, leaning against a desk. The pair were now in an empty classroom nearby.

"No." Mark stuffed the cookie into his mouth, leaving nothing for the younger.

"I'm hurt." the other placed his hand on his chest, pretending to act greatly offended.

"Yeah right." Mark said after swallowing, rolling his eyes.

Donghyuck stalked over to the older, grabbing him by the collar of his shirt.

"You didn't take this seriously after all?" he said lowly, sending shivers down Mark's back.

The male gulped, feeling his best friend's warm breath against his face.

Donghyuck's heart was beating so fast as their eyes bore into each other's for the next few seconds. Mark was backed up against the teacher's desk, his hands pressing against the edge as the other stood in front, their bodies not far from each other - maybe they were a little too close.

Donghyuck's eyes landed on Mark's plush lips, his hormones screaming for him to lean a tiny bit closer.

"Just kiss me, dumbass." the older whispered.

In less than a second, the younger's lips were on the other boy's, capturing them into a firm, passionate lip lock. For being a noob, Donghyuck was a decent kisser. From his knowledge of watching kissing scenes in movies or reading them in books, he was really decent.

Mark was addicted nonetheless, his fingers unconsciously tangling into the other's soft hair. Donghyuck's grasp loosened from the collar, gently moving its way up to Mark's neck, fingers sliding behind his ear. The older leaned further against the desk, the edge digging into his lower back, but he was too distracted to care about that. Distracted with his - uh best friend? Mhm, his 'best friend', nothing more.

Pulling back, both boys gasped, their lungs screaming for air. Mark's lips were glossy with saliva, slightly swollen and red as a cherry. Donghyuck's head was whirling, still trying to process what went down as he stared at what he had done to his best friend's lips.

The older's hand dropped from the tanned male's hair, his fingers smoothing down the collar of his own shirt.

"We should head back now." he cleared his throat.

"Yeah." Donghyuck agreed, fixing himself up before they exited the classroom.

Did they finally cross 'this line' Jeno was talking about?
