After the incident at the Archery locker room. Haechan and Mark starts talking but not the way they usually do. Haechan still avoids Mark, using Renjun as an excuse.
Haechan still can't shot a bullseye and he has 4 days before the ASF. Haechan is struggling with practice. He ends up staying a bit late after school.
It's already 8:30pm when Renjun walk towards the archery training ground, seeing his best friend panting, arrows at both sides and 2 bows with string broken thrown to the side.
Haechan hiss when his third bow of the day just broke. "Fuck!" holding his bleeding palm.
Renjun immediately pulled a handkerchief out of his bag, pressing down to stop the bleeding.
"Let's go home Hyuck"
Haechan pulled away from Renjun shaking his head and panting.
"No. I need to practice more" Haechan said getting another bow but drop it immediately when it got contact with his wound.
"No! You've been like this for a week Donghyuck! Do you see yourself huh?! You have bags under your eyes! You're not eating! You always practice until late in the evening!" Renjun shouted agitated.
"You haven't shot a bullseye for a week! You broke 3 bows in a day! In a fucking day Hyuck! And that never happened before Donghyuck! So no, we're going home even if i have to drag your ass out of this training ground!"
Haechan just stood there, looking down, not knowing what to say back. Renjun walk infront of Haechan.
Renjun lifted Haechan's head, he gasps when he saw Haechan crying.
"Injun-ah" Haechan croaks out.
"It hurts. Why does loving someone hurts so much?"
Renjun just look at the crying male, hugging him tight.
Renjun just let Haechan cries on his shoulder not knowing what to say to him.
They got home late at night, Taeyong and Ten waiting for them. When the two saw Haechan they immediately hug the younger, saying comforting words to him.
Haechan didn't attend the school the next day. He just stay all day at his bed.
Mark waited for Haechan at their 3rd subject but Renjun walks in alone.
"Renjun" he called to the younger.
Renjun snap his head towards Mark scowling before saying "What?"
"Where's Hyuck?"
"That's none of your business" Renjun hissed towards him.
Mark stands up glaring, walking towards Renjun.
"Where is he?"
Renjun rolls his eyes.
"I said that's none of your business" Renjun said standing up looking at Mark.
"I said where is he?!" Mark shouted.
The whole classroom look at the two. Jaemin and Jeno walk in noticing the glaring competition of the two.
Mark pulled Renjun by his collar and Jeno immediately jumps between the two. Jaemin pushing Mark back.
"Hyung what the fuck?" Jeno said glaring at the older.
"Just tell me where the fuck is Donghyuck?!" Mark shouted.
"You're not allowed to see or talk to him ever again you asshole! It's your fault he's doing this to himself! Fuck you!" Renjun cries. Jeno immediately hug Renjun.
Mark untangle himself from Jaemin and walk out of the room angry.
"The shows over losers!" Jaemin shouted to his classmates who are watching them. Everyone averted their eyes doing their own things.
Jeno and Jaemin walk out of the classroom with Renjun and walk towards the rooftop.
Mark run downstairs towards the Seniors floor specifically Taeyong and Ten's classroom.
Mark walks in the classroom and stands in front of Taeyong's table.
"Hyung where's Donghyuck?"
Taeyong taken aback but composes himself looking at the younger.
"I need to talk him. He's been avoiding me for days. We talked last time but he still avoided me. It drives me crazy!" Mark said getting frustrated pulling his hair.
"You can't talk to him" Ten said.
"And why not?!" Mark shouted.
"Mark do you like Haechan?" Taeyong asks.
"What? Of course he's my frien-"
"More than friends?"
"What are you talking about?" Mark said confusely.
"Fuck" Taeyong cursed.
"Mark who the fuck is Dani?" Ten said standing up.
"Dani. My girlfriend, we just got back together" Mark answers them.
Taeyong abruptly stands up knocking his chair in the process.
"You fucker!" Taeyong said.
"Don't talk to Haechan ever again. Don't get near him or even breath where he breathes. Do you understand me Mark?" Taeyong said to Mark.
"What? Why would I do that?! Why is he avoiding me?!" Mark shouted at them.
"Get out Mark" Ten said pushing the younger.
"No! I'm not leaving until I know what's happening with Hyuck! Why are you all hiding him from me?! Why is he avoiding me?! He can't even look at me in the eyes! What?! Tell me!" Mark shouted panting.
Ten just squint his eyes towards the younger and walk towards him grabbing his collar.
"You led him on fucker. He's in love with you all this time! He's avoiding you because he's hurt because of you! He's avoiding you because it hurts him! He doesn't even know you had a girlfriend! All those months you've been with him! You fucking led him on! Now Mark if i see you even look at my brother's way. I'll fucking rip you apart do you understand?" Ten said before pushing Mark.
Mark look at them dumbfounded and run out of the room and eventually the campus.
