twenty-eight

in the dim room, two naked bodies were snuggled cozily under the cover. their chests heaved in a steady rhythm of breathing. no words were needed at the moment. they were comfortable with their position.

donghyuck had his head rested on mark's broad chest as he drew circle repetitively on mark's stomach. mark felt ticklish but he decided to ignore the feeling and focus on playing with the tanned male's soft hair through his slender fingers.

it was half past midnight and the bed sheet against their skin was sticky and messy but none of them bother to change it as tiredness took over their body. the once clean floor was now scattered with their clothes.

it happened as soon as they stepped inside mark's room, eating each other's faces, hands roamed every part of their bodies and soon moans and groans were heard, filling the room. and it caused them to be tangled in the current position they were in.

"are you sure you want to sleep here?" mark asked, kissing donghyuck's head.

donghyuck tightened his arm around mark and buried his face further on mark's chest, "mhmm."

mark smiled at donghyuck's cuteness. "doesn't your mother get worried?"

"mark, i'm not a kid anymore and no, she informed me that she's staying at her friend's house tonight," donghyuck mumbled.

mark raised a brow then rolled his eyes. must be at wong's.

"let's get some sleep yeah?"

donghyuck looked up and pouted, "i'm not sleepy yet."

chuckling, mark peck donghyuck's lips. "you're not tired? after those three rounds?"

donghyuck hit mark's chest playfully and blushed, "yah! i am! but i'm not sleepy."

"i'm just joking," mark buried his nose in donghyuck's hair, inhaling the strawberry shampoo the tanned male used. "donghyuck?"

"hm?"

"i love you,"

donghyuck bit his lip then smiled as he shifted to position himself on top of mark's body, observing the latter's handsome features. "me too."

mark frowned and looked away. donghyuck furrowed his brows at mark's sudden behavior and cupped his right cheek. "hey, what's wrong?"

"that's not how you should reply," mark said, biting his inner cheek with a sulky face. donghyuck just gave him a confused look while tilting his head slightly to the side. mark sighed and put both of his hands behind donghyuck's back. "'me too' isn't convincing. i want to hear 'i love you too'."

donghyuck giggled at mark's request. he found it cute. "you're such a baby."

mark rolled his eyes and tickled the tanned male, hearing his beautiful and soothing laugh. "come on, say it."

"okay okay," donghyuck wiped his fake tears and stopped laughing as he inched closer toward mark's face, whispering against mark's lips before kissing them softly, "i love you too minhyungie."

mark's heart melted and eyes softened. he was grateful to have the latter. he hated himself for coming up with the stupid plan he had before. however, he was thankful that he came to a realization and make things better before it was too late.
