Jaebum's P.O.V
"Mark."
I call to the boy sitting alone in the coffee shop, his head hung low, clearly lost in his thoughts as he stared blankly at the cold coffee in front of him.
Slightly startled, he looked up, his eyes darting towards me, but he did nothing more than turn back around - a hint of guilt on his face.
I sighed and sat opposite him, to which he finally looked up at me.
"Why are you here?" He asked blankly.
"I'm here to make sure I don't lose a friend." I reply which takes him by surprise. "And to make sure YuJin doesn't lose a friend."
"Mark," I continue, "I'm not mad. Well, I admit I was a little pissed off upon first hearing it, but, I thought about it.
Feelings can be a pain in the ass, trust me I understand that, no matter how much you want them to go away sometimes, they won't - & that can't be helped.
But feelings aside, YuJin is your best friend first. Think about how you've been treating your best friend this past week or so. Distancing yourself is not the answer Mark, she needs her friend. & so do you."
I look at the older boy in front of me as he runs his hands through his hair frustratedly.
"You're right." He sighed, "I'm sorry Jaebum, I-I was just, so caught up in my feelings I didn't realise how I was hurting my two best friends."
I smiled at him wholeheartedly for the first time.

YuJin's P.O.V
Where is he?
After ringing Jaebum's doorbell for the nth time I huffed, resorting to just sitting on the floor - hugging my knees for comfort.
I chewed my bottom lip nervously, remembering Jaebum's face. He couldn't possibly hurt Mark, right?
Flashbacks to the numerous times where he showed no mercy to people flashed in my head. I quickly shake the images out of my head.
What am I thinking? Mark is his best friend.
A sudden familiar voice pulls me out of the sea of thoughts. I look up to see Jaebum smiling.
I quickly stand up and scan his face, it definitely contrasted the one I'd seen earlier.
"You're not mad?" I ask and he shakes his head, chuckling. I didn't even realise how tense I was until I sighed and my entire body eased with relief.
"I talked to Mark." he suddenly informed, which took me by surprise. "I really do feel for him, I think it's best you go and talk to him."
-
"I'm sorry."
The boy in front of me said for the millionth time.
"Mark, stop apologising. I'm just glad I have my best friend back." I smile but it soon falters,
"I'm sorry." I say.
"I'm sorry I can't give you what you want, but I know someday you will make some girl the happiest girl in the world. I promise you that."
I say sincerely which makes him smile.
"You know, the new girl Meena really seems to like you." I say very suggestively but the boy in front of me is clueless.
"Who?" He asks innocently to which I just laugh and shake my head.
"You'll find out soon enough."
-
"In summerrrr." I sang gleefully.
Me & Jaebum were currently cuddled up together on the couch, a large blanket draped over us as we watched Frozen.
I looked beside me only to see Jaebum staring at me with admiration causing me to blush a little as I felt the heat rising to my cheeks.
I hid my cheeks with my large sweater paws and attempted to turn away only for Jaebum to grab my arms.
"Cutest little tomato I've ever seen." He chuckled, his face inching dangerously closer.
I felt his hot breath fanning my cheeks, soon our noses were brushing. I watched as his eyes flickered from my eyes to my lips.
No way was it gonna be this easy.
I quickly escaped from his grasp, running mischievously behind the kitchen counter as he ran up from behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist.
I smiled, turning around and observing the boy in front of me. I held his face delicately, tracing hearts on his cheek as he leaned into my touch, holding my hand.
"You did well." I say, like a mother. "I'm proud of you Jaebum." I say, not having to explain myself because I know he knew exactly what I meant.
The way he spoke to Mark today maturely, the way he's becoming a better person everyday. I'm so proud of him.
I gave him a quick short peck on the lips which stunned him.
"Yah." he looked me dead in the eyes, "Come here." he desperately attempted to grab me but I had already escaped yet again.
We ran around the once lonely mansion, the sound of our laughters echoing and bouncing off the vast walls.
Let it be like this forever.
