Donghyuck looked over at Mark, who was currently trying to hide behind Taeil, and sighed. Ever since last night, Mark had been avoiding Donghyuck. Mark was also turning red after making eye contact with him.

Mark watched as Donghyuck turned around to talk to Johnny. He felt his heart beat go back to normal and he loosened his grip on Taeils shoulder.

"Did you guys have a fight again? Because if so, we aren't going to change roommates-" Taeil was interrupted by Mark, who simply pushed him and shook his head.

"No, it's nothing like that." He answered, looking over at Donghyuck again. Mark was pretty sure he had some feelings towards Donghyuck, but didn't know if he should act upon them. Mark then glanced at Yuta and Sicheng, and then at Jungwoo, who was now talking to Doyoung, and sighed.

"What's wrong?" Johnny asked Mark, wrapping his arm around his shoulder and putting his weight on him. Mark closed his eyes and sighed again. He needed to tell someone. He had to let the words come out of his mouth at least once.

"Johnny hyung." Mark opened his eyes and turned completely to Johnny, taking his arm off his shoulder. "I like someone."

"Oh?" Johnny's eyes widened and he stepped back slightly. "Who is it?"

Mark then slowly turned his head, making sure Johnny was following his eyes and stopped when he saw Donghyuck. A small gasp was heard from Johnny.

"Wow." Johnny said, a big smile creeping up his face. "So Haechannies affection finally got to you huh."

Mark chuckled and the nodded. He used to cringe whenever he saw Donghyuck do cute things and stuff, but he did find it... Well... Cute?

"Are you going to tell him?" Johnny asked. Mark instantly shook his head at the question. "I mean, I think you should. You never know, he might like you back."

"What if he doesn't?" Mark countered, shaking his head. "I don't want to ruin our friendship, also I think I like him, I'm not completely 100% sure yet "

"Yet." Johnny echoed. "Wait a few days, and if you think these feelings are here to stay, then act upon them. You don't want Donghyuck to find someone else, now do you?"

Mark thought for a second and then nodded. "I'll do that."

The group were currently headed to the amusement park. It was Donghyuck's idea, of course. They were all so tired and wanted to rest, but Donghyuck being a child and having too much energy to waste, forced them to tag along with him.

"Come on!" Donghyuck yelled, grabbing the first couple of hands he caught and running forwards. Jungwoo and Yuta nearly tripped on a couple of things as they were dragged along with Donghyuck.

"He's honestly such a kid." Mark scoffed, shaking his head in disapproval as he watched Donghyuck jump up and down as they waited in line for the ride.

"Yeah, a kid that you love." Jaehyun dragged out the 'o' sound as he said that. Mark snapped his head towards Johnny who shrugged his shoulders. "Dude, you were talking about it in front of us all, the only people who didn't hear you were Donghyuck, Jungwoo and Yuta."

Mark then felt like slapping himself. He thought that only Johnny knew, but now basically more than half of their group knew.

"Also, stop avoiding him. He thinks he did something wrong." Taeyong said, nudging Marks arm.

Mark nodded and then looked over at where Donghyuck and the others were to see that they were missing. Then a couple of familiar screams were heard, and he looked up. Donghyuck, Jungwoo and Yuta were on the ride, and the three of them were screaming their lungs out. Mark felt the corner of his mouth curve up, and he quickly pulled his phone out. He took a couple of pictures and smiled to himself.

"Hyung..." He heard Donghyuck call him, so he looked up and immediately burst out into laughter.

Donghyuck's hair was completely messed up, and was sticking out from places. His clothes were all twisted and his face was hilarious. He looked like he had just died and come back. His knees were shaking so he grabbed Marks arm.

"I think I'm dying." Donghyuck dramatically said, tugging onto Mark's shirt.

"Don't die on me yet." Mark replied, patting Donghyucks head and then helped him stand up straight.

"Haechan was so scared." Yuta laughed, and then got elbowed by Doyoung.

"Yeah Donghyuckie was scared, but not as scared as Yuta hyung." Jungwoo commented, smiling innocently as he watched the other members laugh.

"Alright, let's get some snacks."

🍉

"Mark hyung" Donghyuck put his hand on his head and massaged it. "There is no difference in taste between the blue and pink cotton candy. They taste the same."

"But then why is it called blueberry, and this one called strawberry." Mark questioned, snatching Donghyuck's stick of cotton candy. He then took a massive bite from it and chewed. "Hm... Okay so they do taste the same."

"Exactly!" Donghyuck exclaimed, taking his cotton candy back and glaring at Mark. "Wow, you ate a lot. Give me some of yours."

Mark pointed his cotton candy towards Donghyuck, who took a bite and then sat back on his seat.

"Why are you guys always flirting?" Doyoung asked, tiling his head in confusion. A couple of members choked on their candy, and held in their laughter. Mark's eyes widened and he then looked at Donghyuck, who was now laughing.

"We're not flirting." Donghyuck calmly said, then turned to Mark, who seemed slightly disappointed with the answer and said, "unless you want me to?"

"No!" Mark said shuffling away from Donghyuck, so that they would have a decent amount of space between them. Donghyuck rolled his eyes and then started a conversation with someone.

Mark stared down at his cotton candy and thought about what had happy earlier. When the two of them went on a rollercoaster together, Donghyuck got a little too hyped, and he held Mark's hand.

Now, Mark didn't dislike it, but he also couldn't breathe properly. He could hear his heartbeat in his ears and everything else was tuned out. He didn't know what he felt in his stomach, but he liked it?

He shook his head and then looked back up, to see Donghyuck staring at him with confusion.

"You don't look okay hyung, anything wrong?" Donghyuck asked, moving closer to Mark, who just shook his head.

"I'm okay." Mark said. Donghyuck then waited a few seconds, inspecting Mark face, then gave him a big smile and turned away.

Mark then gave out a large and quiet sigh of relief.

Lee Donghyuck you're the reason I'm not okay.
