“Holy shit mark I’m so nervous”

“Isn’t the word for that is “excited”?”

“I’m more nervous than excited, to be honest”

Mark gave his best friend for 10 years an “I don’t get it” look.

“What is the main difference between two?”

“”excited” is more of a positive word while “nervous” is negative. For example, when you are going to see someone you like you would be excited but before an exam, you would be nervous.”

Donghyuck was used to mark asking him questions like that because sometimes, even though he studied Korean so hard, he was still getting confused at some words or sentences. Yes, he was Korean, his parents were also Korean but he was raised in Canada for a while before coming back at Korea so he had to learn Korean from the beginning.

Mark smiled at donghyuck brightly “I get it now. Thank you hyuckkie”

“You’re welcome babe”

Maybe if someone else said it mark would blush but they had been best friends for years and things like that were normal between the two. Damn, they even lost their first kisses to each other because na-fucking-jaemin thought daring them to kiss in the truth or dare game is a great idea. They did not complain tho. “How the hell your lips are so soft donghyuck what the fluff?????” “I mean your lips are so sweet so I’m more shocked believe me” “I used strawberry lip balm you gave me” “oh so that’s why” “yeah but why your lips are so soft?” “I use a lip scrub and lip balm constantly. Different from how you leave your lips chapped. You almost made my lips bleed you know. Use the god damn balm every day for the love of God.” “I don’t like its smell.” “It’s strawberry. How the hell you do not like its smell?” “I would prefer watermelon” “mark I swear to go-” “whatever! Next dare!” “Calm your kitties jaemin” “shut the fuck up bitc-” “okay who is next” “I swear to god Jeno hyung is the only sane one in this group”. Yeah, they did not complain at all. And they were always calling each other with cute names like “babe, baby, dear, darling” but it was normal for them even though everyone thought they were dating. It did not matter for them. They knew they were not dating.

“Mark”

“Hmmm?”

Donghyuck took a breath and slowed down his pace.

“What if you find a pretty girl and start dating with her and forget me.”

“What?” mark stopped walking and looked at donghyuck with wide eyes

“I mean I will be all alone then…and I will miss you...a lot...ugh I sound so selfish I’m so sorry.”

“No no. donghyuck look at me” Mark said and cupped his cheeks, making them connect their eyes.

“No girl or boy can make me forget you. You know I love you so much. You are my best friend. I will never leave you alone even if I date someone. Okay?”

“Okay….”

“Donghyuck…”

“Okay yeah, whatever. I just asked anyway. Don’t go so dramatic on me I don’t wanna cry on the first day of uni”

Donghyuck threw his arm on Mark's shoulder and tried to keep walking even though he was shorter than mark so he was struggling with his arm on his shoulder. Mark just laughed and said an “okay”. Being best friends with a Gemini meant you had to be ready for everything they will do. Even if it means they will go from emotional to chill just in minutes.

“They all look like bitchy people who would make fun of me for listening red velvet on repeat” donghyuck whispered to mark when they sat down in their classroom. Well, their first classroom actually. Cause they told that all of their classes will be in different classrooms but with same people. This did not calm donghyuck’s nervousness in any possible way but oh well they had to do what they had to do.
