Jinyoung's POV

"Mark's looking, kiss me." I look at Mark then back at Youngjae worry fills me. Youngjae then quickly leaned back into my ear.

"This is how you'll know. His reaction will say it all." I'm still hesitant, but...I did it. I gave him a long peck and when I looked back for Mark he was gone.

"That's it! He still loves you, make the move on the trip." I nod and sit down and Chan quickly gets up.

"I need to find Mark." Then he walked off. I can't believe I just hurt him. AGAIN! I'm such a shitty person.

⊂•⊃_⊂•⊃

Chan came back and Mark followed close behind him.

"Guys thanks for dinner, but we are going to head out. Mark is feeling a little under the weather at the moment so I'm going to take him and Jeongin home." Chan smiled and moved aside to get Jeongin out of his seat. Yes, Changbin brought him back. I look at Mark and puffy red eyes, stained cheeks, and well sadness.

"Ok, bye guys." Everyone waved at the three and smiled. When they left though...everyone talked.

"Poor Jeongin, he looked miserable."

"Not just that Chan texted me and said Mark broke down in the bathroom."

"Yeah, I noticed the puffy eyes."

"Poor kids."

"Yeah, let's hope it gets better." I heard every voice but just stared at my food forcing myself to listen.

"I'll take Mark off Jeongin's hands though. He's too good of a catch to let anyone else have him." I don't know who said it...but that was it. I couldn't take it anymore. I wanted to beat the fuck out of whoever slipped that stupid shit.

"What are you?! Middle school cheerleaders!? Why are you acting like Mark is an object?! Damn!" All I could do was put my head in my hands. I couldn't handle that. I want Mark.

"Ok, that's the end of dinner! We'll see you later! Next week!" Youngjae smiled and grabbed me. He got me out of the restaurant, now I'm outside with a pissy Youngjae.

"Ok, the first day of the week vacation lets break up. Make a move on him!" I look at him in annoyance.

"Dude that's too early!"

"Jinyoung you like him right?" I nod and he grabs my collar pulling me closer to him.

"Then get on his ass like he was on yours!" He began to shake my shoulders and I just giggle.

"Ok, OK!" I smile remembering something.

"You just going to let Changbin and them pay the bill? You said you would take over on pay." He looked at me confused frozen until-

"Oh shit your right!" He ran in and I just laugh yelling after him.

"I'll wait in the car!" He's so stupid it's fucking idiotically cute.

ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ

"You should call him...but he won't answer, and if he does? No, he probably doesn't want to talk." Pacing back and forth until I came up with something simple.

"Heads I call, Tails I don't." I grab a quarter out of my pocket and flip it. I close my eyes. Honestly, I know it's stupid, but a coin better than arguing...with myself.

I hear the coin hit the ground and I open my eyes...tails.

"God, you're really trying to hurt me today huh?" I groan in annoyance.

Don't...

Don't...

Don't call Mark.

The coin sealed your fa-

"Please pick up..." I did, I dialed his number at 11:56 at night...geez.

"Hello?" He sniffles. He really has been crying?

"Hey, could we meet up?"

"J-Jinyoung...? Uh, y-yeah sure. Where?"

"Your place, your brother there?"

"Jeongin? No, he's staying at Chan's tonight...wait you kno-"

"Yeah, I know about you and Jeongin being fake and I also know that there were small feelings between." He went quiet for a minute.

"Oh...so-"

"So you had a fake breakup?" He seemed to groan in a bit of annoyance and I just smile.

"Yeah we did, but why-"

"Mark, do you still like me?" He stayed silent for a few minutes so I talked ahead of him.

"Mark if you still like me...you know I still like you, so date me?"

"Jinyoung your dating-"

"It's fake! I want you and he wants Hyunjin." He sighed. Simple, but painful.

"Jinyoung I don't know how you can prove yourself to me. The thing with Youngjae sounds pretty simple and like him. But what about you?" I don't know... that's what I wanted to say. I really don't...wait for the trip, we are going somewhere I know well.

"I will on the trip, but you have to come and at least give me a chance, please?" He sighed once again, but this time I smile. Not because of anything else, but the hope that he would say yes.

"Fine, I'll date you and give you this chance. But do something stupid and I'm really dropping you, got it?" It was harsh but I loved it.

"Yes..."

"Ok, I'm going to bed."

"Ok, night baby!"

"Don't call me that!" He yelled before hanging up.

I chuckle and lay down in my bed with relief washing over me.

-I'll prove myself Mark...but you have to let me in.-
