Mark and Donghyuck were on the way to a local cafe to grab lunch with Mark's parents, was Donghyuck nervous to meet his boyfriends parents? No. Did he have a reason to be? No. 

On the other hand, was Mark nervous to see his own parents with his boyfriend? Yes. Did he have a reason to be? No. 

The younger was quite content as he was but Mark was a bundle of nerves, he'd gone over a few rules with Donghyuck before hand just in case anything was to happen. 

As they entered the coffee shop the two took a table by the widow over looking a beautiful view of the lake with graceful swans sailing around being followed by their own ducklings. 

"What a cute family, would you ever have children Mark?"Donghyuck asked as he gestured over to the ducks in the lake, Mark who was drinking some coke almost choked at the sudden question. 

"W-Why are you asking?" He stuttered out with wide eyes and flushed cheeks. 

"Just asking out of curiosity, what were you thinking?" Donghyuck asked with furrowed eyebrows and a cute tilt to the head, "Nothing at all!" Mark defended himself watching Donghyuck laugh at his awkwardness. 

"Mark you look like you've grown up!" A cheerful voice from behind them brought them out of their trance, Mark turned around noticing his parents standing there with wide smiles on their faces at the sight of their child.

"Mum, Dad, this is Donghyuck." He introduced after they were all sat back down, the parents looked at the smiling boy as they shook hands with him. 

"It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs and Mr Lee." Donghyuck greeted with a bow, Mark's parents were taken back in a good way. So far so good. 

"Mark how come you've never introduced us before now? Your friend here is a lovely person." Donghyuck made sure to remember those words since he'd be sure to quote it some time in the future when the timing was right. 

"Erm...Just never thought about it." Mark awkwardly admitted while fidgeting around with his hands, as far as his parents knew he was straight but that was far from the truth. 

They all spoke for around an hour in comfort, unknown to the two boys Mark's parents were onto something with the teens acting. 

"So Mark, when were you planning on telling us you had a boyfriend?" His dad asked with a serious face alongside his mother, Mark grew pale as his mouth became dry and his heart race quickened. Donghyuck grew a dark shade of red, he could feel his ears growing red as well. 

"W-What do you mean?" He asked like an idiot, he was too deep in it to back out. 

"If you wanted to hide it you should've started by covering the marks on the both of your necks." His mother giggled, his father was smirking while looking directly at Mark waiting for an answer. 

"I'm sorry for not telling you, this is Donghyuck my boyfriend." 

Turns out his parents really enjoyed the idea of having a 'son in law', they were very accepting of the two which made both of them feel like the luckiest guys in the world.

The next day Mark had woke up early to go food shopping leaving Donghyuck in bed to sleep, he figured he probably wouldn't wake up for another three hours or so. 

The universe had other plans. 

Donghyuck shifted in his sleep uncomfortably as he opened his eyes before shutting them again with a groan followed by a couple raspy coughs. His throat felt like it was on fire and the light from outside made his eyes sting. 

'I knew I shouldn't have gone out last night.' Donghyuck thought, he had gone out last night in the rain to get some fresh air without an umbrella so it was technically his fault that he had fallen sick. 

The sun kissed boy stood up but he didn't get far since his head was spinning in circles, he fell back on the bed with small whimper as everything went black. 

--

Mark walked into the house putting all the shopping away before it gets hot, the weather outside wasn't too hot maybe 16 degrees Celsius (60.8 Fahrenheit), hoodie weather. 

"Donghyuck-ah I've brought you some more noodles!" He shouted but didn't hear anything back so he assumed the boy was still in dreamland. Mark rolled his eyes at the laziness of his boyfriend as he walked down into his room seeing Donghyuck laying in a rather uncomfortable position. 

"Hyuck get up it's almost 2 o'clock." Mark whined at the boy, he walked closer noticing the sweat dripping down his forehead like it was a hot summers day. Mark shook his body lightly watching as Donghyuck coughed again furrowing his eyebrows at the sharp pain in his head. 

"Hyuckie I'll be right back." Mark stated as he ran out of the room and as promised returned with a few things in hand, he placed a cool wet towel on his forehead and placed a glass of water on the bedside table. 

"Take this." Mark instructed giving a tablet to him, with no complaints he swallowed it and threw his head back into the pillow with another whimper. 

"M-Mark new...Clothes." He whispered in a gravely voice, Mark looked down at the clothes he was wearing which were drenched in his own sweat. 

"Why are you so hot?" Mark asked asked with a really concerned voice, "M'always hot." He muttered with sass causing Mark to roll his eyes but continued with picking out a pair of shorts and tank top for Hyuck. 

"Y'know for someone who's meant to be sick you still have your usual bratty side." Mark complained pulling off Donghyuck's shirt before replacing it with another, Donghyuck laughed quietly. 

The day continued like that, Donghyuck was laying on the couch with Mark running his hands through his soft hair; he'd decided to get a warm bath earlier to clean up and he was feeling a tiny bit better. 

"I love you Mark, your the best." He said looking up into Mark's eyes, he looked down at him with a wide smile. 

"I love you too, your mine." Mark whispered in his ear, "Forever." Donghyuck smiled wrapping his arms around Mark's torso before he fell asleep laying on his lap. Later he woke to Mark watching the tv, he kept his eyes shut wanting to savour the moment a little longer. 

Mark had shifted so he was laying down with Donghyuck laying with his head resting on his chest, he listened to the older's heart beat and sighed softly with a soft smile. He wondered how he got so lucky with him, he was glad he fell on Mark that day.
