"You've got to be kidding me, right? Jinyoung you're so fucking dumb." Mark said, slowly filling up with frustration.

"This is why I didn't want to tell you." Jinyoung said defensively, crossing his arms over his chest. Mark had been pestering the past couple of days to 'spill the tea' and now that he does, he's mad.

"You're so fucking lucky that I haven't left you yet, you act like such a fucking dumbass sometimes." Mark was tired of Jinyoung's attitude and point of view. He would've yelled at Jinyoung if it wasn't for the fact that they were at the schools library.

"Just let me deal with it on my own." Jinyoung furrowed his eyebrows. Mark didn't have to help him, he was capable of helping himself.

"Jinyoung," Mark warned, a bit of disbelief in his voice "you agreed to meet the person your parents want to sell you to. What the fuck do you want me to do?"

"It could be a nice per-"

"Jinyoung, that's not the point. I'm gonna say this once and only once. You." Mark smacked them back on his hand with his other one for dramatic effect. "Already." He smacked it again. "Have." Another smack. "A." Another one. "Fucking." A louder smack. "Mate." And once more.

Jinyoung watched Mark's hands, finding it quite amusing but obviously not showing it, he didn't want Mark to blow up at him again. 

"Look, I can't keep getting involved in your relationship." Mark sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"It's not a relatio-"

"Shut up." Jinyoung clamped his mouth shut with a pout. "This is the very last time."

Before Jinyoung could say anything else, Mark was running out of the library. Jinyoung ran out after him but found him nowhere, what the fuck is he up to?

"You're completely serious?" Jaebum asked Mark, his anger, frustration and jealousy already flaring.

"Deadass." Mark bluntly said, I am an amazing friend.

"Thanks." Jaebum quickly thanked him, giving his arm a pat before heading off to find Jinyoung.

"Hopefully this helps you, Jinyoung." Mark mumbled, watching as Jaebum walked away.

"What were y'all talking about?" A random voice asked, causing Mark to jump.

"Jackson?" Mark asked once he turned around, his cheeks slightly tinting pink.

"Hey." Jackson smiled, ready to be his usual talkative self.

"Alright, you're really starting to get on my nerves now." Jaebum announced when he found Jinyoung looking into his locker.

"I haven't even spoken to you in days." Jinyoung rolled his eyes, trying to get a book out of his locker but couldn't since it was stuck.

"And you're still annoying me. You're not meeting the person, I don't care if you agree or not." Jaebum said, making Jinyoung stop his struggle with the book to turn to him with a look of disbelief.

"And who do you think you are to tell what or what not to do?" Jinyoung asked, turning his whole body towards Jaebum and leaning against the lockers.
