mark could not focus on what his friend was saying. he did not mean to be rude. his mind had long drifted off elsewhere, even before his friend came over. however, mark was pretty sure his friend was talking about the project that will be due next week.

not only was his mind somewhere else, his eyes were glued to the prettiest boy he has ever seen, again for the umpteenth time that week.

blue and pink pastel streaks in his brown hair and eyes that look like it could hold the entire galaxy, the boy is the literal personification of the adjective 'pretty'. he was wearing glittery eye shadow today and a cream sweater that made him look like a soft, fluffy angel sent from above. it made it harder for mark not to stare a little longer than usual.

mark's literary arts class had just ended and said pretty boy has been spotted outside of his literary arts class every time without fail. the difference today was instead of the pretty boy waiting outside for whomever; he actually came in for them. mark finally knows who the pretty boy was waiting for all this time now.

"mark? earth to mark? you know what, i'll just text you the details of the project." his friend rolled his eyes as he start to type away on his phone.

the raven haired boy snapped out it. "wha–sorry, minhyuk. could you repeat that again?"

"so that you can ignore me again? no thank you. check the group chat, mark." minhyuk sassed him. mark did what he was told and fished out his phone from his pocket. his lock screen was already filled with notifications from the group project group chat.

"you know if you want his number, you could always go up and ask." minhyuk says nonchalantly as if he wasn't sassing mark just a few seconds ago. "you could even ask renjun if you're not about that spontaneous life."

this caused mark to be flustered. "huh?"

"it's really easy to read you when your emotions are literally displayed for the whole world to see." mark glowed red and he fidgeted with his phone in his hand.

at the corner of his eyes, mark could see the pretty boy and his classmate (and also the person whom he has been waiting for all this while), renjun pushing each other jokingly before leaving the room side by side. mark wonders what their relationship is. as much as he wished to have the courage to approach him, mark doesn't want to be the third party to wreck anything.

mark turned to minhyuk and shoved him in a joking manner. "shut up."
