??????? ✧ M.HYUCK

FOUR

donghyuck lightly doodled on the corner of his notes. he was getting tired of the choir lesson that day. don't get him wrong, he loved singing, but listening to his teacher rant about the technical aspects was surely not the most interesting topic in the world.

he sighed as he drew a heart around two figures holding hands.

"hey look, it's renjun and jaemin." chenle blurted out. renjun quietly looked over donghyuck's shoulder to see the drawing. he then lightly blushed and covered his face with his small hands.

"he's not wrong," jaemin said, pulling the smaller boy closer to him. renjun just continued to stay silent from embarrassment.

"no seriously, you got someone special on your mind?" the youngest of the four asked. donghyuck just simply shrugged and looked back to the board where a movie about the history of choir was being displayed. they were supposed to be copying notes but the friend group had gotten a little distracted.

when he had the time to think about it, donghyuck hadn't had anyone in particular in mind when he thought about the idea of having a lover. he simply just wanted somebody to love him and care for him. 

snapping him out of his thoughts, his friends began talking again. "hyuck are you still going out with me and jisung after school?"

"of course," donghyuck replied sarcastically, "i have nothing better to do than to be a third wheel," he rolled his eyes and then giggled.

"me and renjun would attend but you know, we have some business to tend to tonight.." jaemin said, still looking at the boy sitting next to him. renjun just smacked the boys chest and glared at him.

"you make it seem like we are doing something! we are just studying—"

"no, we are—" before jaemin could finish his sentence the bell cut him off. renjun sprinted out the classroom with a laughing jaemin following him.

"see you after school?"

"yes, lele." donghyuck nodded slowly and walked to his next class.

❥

it was now the end of the day, everyone was rushing out of the school except for donghyuck and a few others. he still had to stop by his locker and gather his books. he was almost finished stuffing the thick textbooks in his bag when a girl who looked really familiar approached him.

"hey donghyuck..." she looked at him with a big smile, while brushing her hair back with her fingers.

"oh hey yeji, how's everything going?"

they continued to talk and giggle even after the halls were cleared and empty. mark slowly approached the pair.

jisung had sent him to tell donghyuck to come on and when he saw the two, he wanted to cry. theway yeji looked at donghyuck, the way donghyuck looked so happy while talking to her made him upset.

he quickly made his way over there and tapped the male's shoulder.

"it's time to go, donghyuck." he said in a quiet tone, eyeballing the female.

"hey mark, i'm so sorry i'm late, and you're going too?" the youngest questioned.

mark just swiftly nodded before grabbing the males sweater and gently taking him away from the girl.

"bye yeji! it was nice talking again!" he said with a bright smile as he walked away from the girl. she winked and then waved and mark could've sworn he threw up a little bit in his mouth.

he tried not to focus on yeji too much, even though the interaction made his blood boil. instead he tried to distract himself by focusing on how he was going to get donghyuck's attention. soon, the lovebot would do the job for him, all he had to do was hold out for a little while longer...
