Mafia Baby

Chapter 12

*Hoseok pov*
When I was a good distance away, I started walking to the cafe. Tears were streaming down my face but I could care less about that. When I seen the bright and colorful sign of the cafe, I started to smile softly. I made it to the door and walked straight in. I looked around to see if I could see the person I was looking for and luckily he was sitting behind the register. I walked over to him and stood beside him.

"Mark?" I called out his name softly.

He looked up and his eyes widened. Then he jumped off the stool and pulled me into a bone crushing hug. I giggled at him and hugged him back just as tight. He put me down and then suddenly smacked me on the side of the head.

"Ow!! What was that for?" I whined while rubbing the side of my head.

"That's for worrying me" Mark said while giving me a glare.

I didn't take it offensively since I seen him pouting at the same time. I just nodded my head and looked up at him. He noticed my red puffy eyes and got worried. He picked me up and put me on my usual spot on the counter. He stood between my legs and grabbed my hands softly.

"What happened Hobi?" Mark asked me softly making me burst into tears again.

He just waited patiently and soothingly rubbed my knuckles. I calmed down some and started to explain what happened not that long ago. Mark just kept rubbing my knuckles and listened. Once I was done, he pulled me into another hug and rubbed soft circles on my back until I was reduced to sniffles.

"Okay Hobi. Do you want to know what I think?" Mark asked me softly.

I nodded my head yes while wiping the few stray tears that was running down my face.

"I think they really like you Hobi but they were just shocked because you said yes. They probably didn't think you would want to date them" Mark said honestly making me tilt my head.

"Why would I not date them?" I asked genuinely confused.

"The same reason why you don't think they would date you" he said while looking me in my eyes.

I looked in his eyes and could tell that he was being truthful so I just nodded my head. I suddenly felt bad that I just ran out on them like that and didn't give them the chance to explain themselves. I hung my head in guilt but Mark picked my head back up.

"You don't have to feel bad Hobi. You didn't know" Mark said reassuringly.

I nodded again and pulled him into a hug. I heard the bell ring indicating that someone else walked into the cafe and my eyes widened when I saw it was the boys. I quickly jumped off the counter, ducking under it while pulling Mark down with me. He squeaked in surprise and stared at me wide eyed.

"What are you doing?" Mark whisper shouted at me.

"What does it look like? I'm hiding" I whisper shouted back.

"Well you can't just avoid them. They know where you live and work Hobi" Mark said amusingly.

"Shut up" I whined to him.

"But what about you and those other boys? Has anything happened while I was gone?" I asked teasingly while wiggling my eyebrows.

"U-uh y-yes. They asked me to be their boyfriend and I said yes" Mark said while blushing.

"WHAT?!" I yelled while getting up from behind the counter.

"Hobi stop. Everyone's looking now" Mark said while standing up slowly and looking around.

"I don't care about them right now. I'm so happy for you!!" I said excitedly while giggling.

"I'm just glad they asked me. I really like them Hobi" Mark said while looking at me with soft eyes.
