Letter 2 U

Part 7 -The break up

A full three weeks passed and Jinyoung kept track of Mark's every move through his social media. Weibo, Twitter and Instagram updates, the younger would check all of them. It seemed his hyung was on a tour around the world. He had visited Bambam's Black Feather Fan Meeting, then he was in Singapore for Jus2 showcase and it seemed he would also be their MC in another showcase in Macao. Youngjae texted him excitedly informing that soon he would meet Mark, Jaebeom and Yugyeom at Tokyo for another showcase. Jinyoung was truly glad that Mark had gotten rid of his fear of cameras, crowds and whatever was making him prisoner at his own apartment, it seemed his hyung wouldn't have a problem to return to Got7, in fact, he was already with them. The singer sighed, as he realized he was the only one Mark seemed to be avoiding all this time. He wondered if the American had a chance to pay a visit to Jackson. The Chinese too had been in his mind lately, he wondered if Mark's change of attitude was due to some improvement in their strained relationship. He was surprised when he saw at his tvN's drama set a coffee truck that his band mate had sent him. He immediately went to Instagram and expressed his gratitude to his dearest Wang Gae, who, he in fact, really missed. Next week he also had to thank Jus2 for another coffee truck, and he couldn't miss some fans comments about Mark's indifference to his acting career. They went on about how Mark supported all the other members but didn't show any support for his favorite dongsaeng. Some Markjin fans even called the American out online and demanded some sort of initiative. And it worked beautifully. The following week Jinyoung couldn't help but smile when he saw the design of the truck his hyung had sent him, full of images of one of Got7's favorite ship. But the words on it were quite enigmatic, he wondered what Mark meant by being "inside him".

On the other side of the continent, Mark arrived in Macao. The Jus2 unit was already in their hotel rooms when Mark landed. He couldn't believe he was so close to Hong Kong again. He remembered Jackson's complaints through the phone when Mark went to China and didn't even stop by to see him. The rapper said he would be with him soon, but Mark brushed that off, knowing his boyfriend was probably too busy to even think of him. He wouldn't dare to get his hopes up. Yet, as soon as he entered his hotel room, which was across from the other two Got7 members', he had the shock of his life when he was face-to-face with the Chinese.

"How come you are here?" Mark managed to say still stupefied as Jackson wrapped his arms around him and closed the door behind them.

"Aren't you happy to see me? I came all this way just to have a look at my lover's new silver hair." Jackson removed his arms from the American's embrace just to examine his new hairdo. But when he tried to touch it, his lover moved away from him.

"It's been months and now you decide to show up! I thought you were too busy for me." Mark snapped, as images of their last encounter flashed though his mind. And of course, its consequences.

"I'm one hour away from Hong Kong. I mean to go back there soon. I'm still busy, it's been chaotic, lately. But I needed to get my mind off work a bit, so I wanted to come here and check upon you. The rapper sighed tiredly.

"Check up on me? Really? Because it seems the only reason you came here is because you need to relieve some stress! Actually, I'm glad to hear you at least see me as a nice distraction or some sort of pastime. I'm flattered, baby!" Mark retorted sarcastically crossing his arms around himself defensively.

"It's so like you! Everything I say you turn into something negative. I've gotta admit, your bitchy mood is getting old, Mark. It seems you're always trying to pick a fight with me, when I'm doing my best to keep us together. I skipped work to come here and you just stand there judging me! And you criticize me for leaving you back at Seoul?! How can you doubt my feelings when I was the one who saved your life! Or have you forgotten that tiny detail?" Jackson was too tired to raise his voice, but his tone was stern.
