Just a crush (Markhyuck)

2

Donghyuk was sitting with his friends, minus Mark. He was on a date with a pretty girl that Donghyuk doesn't care to put a name to.
Chenle and Jisung were eating pizza with him and noticed his sad mood.
"What's wrong with you Hyuckie? You seem out of it." Chenle said out of concern.
He thought for a moment, not sure if he should say anything or not. In the end he decided to fess up.
"I am in love with someone and they are on a date with someone else as we speak." They looked at each other surprised, they haven't noticed Donghyuk crushing on anyone.
"Who is it? Do we know her?" There it was again the assumption that it was a her and not a him. It bothers him to no end but instead of yelling like he wants to he just tells his truth.
"I'm gay and I'm in love with Mark." They look shocked at first but when they start to giggle Donghyuk can't help but be pissed off.
"What exactly is so funny? I'm not joking, I've loved him for years now. Why is it that nobody believes me?" He sighs in defeat and gets up from his spot on the floor and grabs his jacket to leave.
He walks out slamming the door behind him, he can hear their shouts to stay but frankly doesn't care.
He walks aimlessly until he ends up at the one place he usually feels safe.
He checks his phone after a while noticing a few texts from chenle and Jisung but when he reads them it just makes him angrier.
"Why does everyone say it's just a crush? I know my heart, I know I love him." He says out loud but instantly regrets it when He hears his voice.
"Who are you in love with?" He asks cautiously. He notices Donghyuk's uneasiness and sits down beside him.
"You know you can tell me anything, I'm your best friend." Yes that hurt more than it should have. Donghyuk stood up shaking his head.
"It doesn't matter, I'm sure he doesn't feel the same. I can't talk about it right now." He starts to walk away again but Mark stops him by grabbing his hand. He stops but can't look him in the eye.
"You really want to know? The person that makes my heart beat like crazy with every soft smile or every time he touches me?" He adjusts his feet still looking down to the dark sidewalk, he still can't look him in the eye.
Mark is still, hand still holding Donghyuk's. He's afraid that he'll run if he lets go.
Donghyuk's breathing becomes somewhat erratic as he tries to form the words that Mark wants to hear. He takes a deep breath and with every ounce of courage he has he says the one thing that's been on his mind since he was twelve years old.
"It's you Mark, I'm in love with you." As soon as he says it his heart drops, he felt his hand fall to his side as Mark let go in shock. He still doesn't have the courage to look up but when he finally does he regrets it immediately.
Marks face is one of surprise but most annoyingly, sympathy. He backs up ready to bolt, as he's discovered over the years that's the easiest way.
"Look Hyuckie, I think maybe um, maybe it could just be a crush, you know. Like we're best friends...." He trails off not getting to finish as he sees Donghyuk with pure rage in his eyes.
"Do you know how fucking sick I am of hearing that?" He starts off lowly.
"ITS MY FUCKING HEART GOD DAMN IT! EVERYONE KEEPS TELLING ME I HAVE A SILLY LITTLE CRUSH BUT I HAVE NEVER LOOKED AT ANYONE BUT YOU SINCE I WAS FUCKING TWELVE YEARS OLD!" He calms himself down a little and quietly finishes.
"I know I don't have a chance with you Mark Lee but I do feel better getting off my chest. So go ahead, live your life. Date as many girls as you see fit. Don't worry about me, maybe now after five years I can try to move on." He turns and runs as fast as he can crying into the wind as he goes.
He was seventeen when his heart shattered...
