Donghyuck was sitting in one of the couches at the student's lounge area. He was waiting for Mark since the older had asked him to wait until he was done with classes. Something about wanting to go on an adventure or something. Since it was a Friday, Donghyuck's classes had ended early, leaving him bored since Jaemin still has 2 classes for the day. 1:02.
Just 8 more mins and the older would be done for the day. Donghyuck started humming a random tune to pass the time and took out his notebook to start doodling to relieve him of his boredom. So engrossed, he didn't notice the person running towards him.

"Hey, Haechan!"

At the mentioned of his name, Donghyuck looked up and saw someone frantically waving their hands up in the air. As the person got closer, Donghyuck recognized him as someone who's part of the photography club. The person, Hyunjin, stopped in front of him, panting slightly. Donghyuck smiled at him and gestured for him to sit.

"Hi, Hyunjin. What's up?"

Hyunjin flashed him a smile, which quickly became upset. Donghyuck grew concern for the boy.

"What's wrong?"

Hyunjin sighed.

"The student that was suppose to model for me backed out of it. So now I don't have anyone to model for my assignment."

He turned towards Donghyuck, hands clasped together and eyes pleading, causing Donghyuck to feel nervous.

"Haechan!!! I desperately need someone to model for me!! Please tell me you're free?!"

"Uh.."

At his hesitation, Hyunjin got up from his seat and kneeled in front of him, causing passing students to look at them weirdly. Some even snickered and jokingly said that Donghyuck was getting proposed to. Face bright red, Donghyuck lightly slapped Hyunjin's forehead.

"Get up you idiot! You're causing a scene!!"

But Hyunjin did the opposite and started clinging to Donghyuck, wrapping his arms around his waist while still on his knees in front of him.

"But Haechannieeee. I need you!!"

Just as Donghyuck opened his mouth to sass Hyunjin, a clearing of someone's throat could be heard. Both boys looked up and Donghyuck couldn't help but groan out loud. Just a few steps away from them was Mark Lee, his face impassive and left eyebrow raised. Donghyuck quickly pushed clingy Hyunjin away and got up to make his way towards the older's side.

"Hyung, hi."

"Hi."

Mark's answer was short, looking at Donghyuck as if asking for an explanation. Donghyuck bit his lips, trying to hide a grin at the way Mark's staring intently at Hyunjin. He doesn't want the older to think he's making fun of him and get mad. He cleared his throat, to get Mark's attention on him instead of Hyunjin. He gestured for the other boy to come a bit closer.

"Mark-hyung, this is Hyunjin. He's part of the photography club."

Hyunjin waved at Mark, feeling somewhat intimidated at how the older's eyes are staring right at him, as if analyzing his every being. Mark nodded his head, but was nudge by Donghyuck.

"Hi. I'm Mark Lee. Haechan's friend."

After the events of last week, the two had agreed to start as friends for now and slowly work their way from there. They're taking things slow after all, getting to know about each other more and all that.

"I'm Park Hyunjin, a close acquaintance of Haechan."

Mark nodded his head in acknowledgement, before turning to Donghyuck.

"Ready to go?"

Donghyuck nodded at him and went to grab his stuff. He was about to walk back to the older, when Hyunjin grabbed his wrist. Donghyuck turned to look at him, eyebrows raised in questioned. Hyunjin smiled at him, unaware of the glaring male staring at them, hands slowly balling to fists and jaw slightly clenching. Hyunjin slid his hand until its holding Donghyuck's own, aggravating Mark further.

"Please consider, okay? I need someone by next Friday."

Donghyuck nodded his head and Hyunjin let him go, just to hug him and scurry off. Hyuck just shook his head at his friend's antics, before walking to a slightly brooding Mark Lee. As soon as he was standing in front of the older, Donghyuck took notice of his furrowed brows, slightly pouting lips and crossed arms, gaze fixed on Hyunjin's retreating figure. Donghyuck wanted to coo. The normally compose and cool looking Mark Lee's sulking. As for why, he doesn't know.

"Hyung?"

Mark snapped out of is daze, focusing his gaze on Donghyuck. Donghyuck's eyes were watching him curiously, but with slight amusement, lips forming a small teasing smile. He's not wearing makeup today so his natural beauty stands out, moles on full display, hair unruly but looking well put together. Mark couldn't help but gulp, feeling speechless about being this close to such a beautiful boy. Due to Mark's lack of response, Donghyuck took a hold of his arm, shaking lightly.

"Mark-hyung?"

Shaking himself out of admiration of Donghyuck's features, Mark smiled at his fiance.

"Who's that?"

Donghyuck couldn't help but sigh, placing his hands on his hips and frowning at Mark.

"Mark Lee, sweet, sweet Hyunjin had introduced himself to you earlier. Were you not listening the whole time?"

Mark groaned, feeling embarrassment bubbling in his chest.

"Hyuckiee.. That's not what I mean"

"Then what did you mean?"

Mark sighed, feeling warm at the thought of having to elaborate to Donghyuck.

"I mean, what was he asking of you? Why was he kneeling earlier and clinging onto you like a koala?"

At the mentioned of that particular scene earlier, Donghyuck's cheeks reddened, remembering the embarrassing comments some people had said. Mark eyebrows furrowed even more at the sight of his fiance's cheeks tinting.

"And why did you let him cling to you like that? You looked like a couple flirting. And what was with the hand holding and hug."

Donghyuck tried to hold back his smile as he watched the older get worked up, but at the sight of a full on pout, he lost control and ended up laughing. Mark's entire lit up in embarrassment, the tips of his ears a bright red. He groaned out loud and was about to walk away from the younger, when a hand took a hold of his left one. He turned back around and was met with a widely grinning Donghyuck. Mark turned his body fully to face Donghyuck, pursing his lips.

"Are you gonna be laughing at me again?"

Donghyuck shook his head and reached over to the pinch the older's cheek.

"No. But you don't need to be jealous, hyung. Hyunjin and I are just friends, nothing more."

Mark was spluttering the whole time Donghyuck was dragging him towards the parking lot, his face a bright red, in contrast to Donghyuck's wide grin
