Tired of stomping and finally at the highest point of the orchard, Donghyuck came to an abrupt stop; dropping himself down to sit cross legged on a large flat topped rock and look back at the sunlight glinting off the puny school windows in the distance.

Mark wiped some sweat from his forehead and trekked up around the dusty pathway to lean on the edge of the rock that Donghyuck was placed atop.

"Finally. Jesus Christ Donghyuck, you couldn't have stopped any sooner?"

"What happened to not saying anything?"

Mark looked at him breathing heavily and then pushed himself off the rock.

"After that amount of cross country I think we've stayed silent long enough. Now what the fuck is happening."

Donghyuck balled his fists. "Renjun kicked me off top of the class in drama."

At first mark felt himself surging with pride- he knew how much Renjun had been talking about his drama grade- but that didn't last long because all mark could managed was an exasperated groan.

"That's why your mad? Donghyuck grow up."

"That's not why I'm mad. If he worked for that grade then sure enough he deserves it. But he also fucked my grade up because he's a cheater. I mean... expect no less from-"

"Chose your next words carefully donghyuck."

From a stupid asshole townie piece of crap. Donghyuck thought to himself, satisfied. He was really in need of some new swear words to use against Renjun; he'd exhausted his supply.

"I don't understand why you and Renjun are always at each other's throats. It makes my life really fucking difficult donghyuck."

"Well quite frankly I wasn't considering how it would affect your life, Mark Lee."

"I didn't imagine you would. You Loonies need to get your heads out of your asses and think about other people sometimes."

"Okay, that was unnecessary."

"But true."

Donghyuck didn't have it in him to fight. Don't get him wrong- Donghyuck thought the townies as a concept was a great thing. It's good to allow those who weren't born with as much to try and achieve the same. The only problem is the townies as people all really got on his nerves. He didn't know what it was about them, but at some point he'd noticed the correlation between causing unnecessary trouble and being a townie, and it rubbed him the wrong way.

However, as per the norm, Donghyuck's perspective on such was certainly not the generally accepted perspective. And Donghyuck knew this and was aware that there were plentiful stuck up, ignorant loonies. But they kept to themselves. The townies on the other hand never ceased to bother him.

"Whatever."

Mark smirked and Donghyuck wanted to kick him.

So he did.

"Ow! What was that for?"

"You looked too smug."

Mark ruffled his nose at Donghyuck and then fell silent again looking out at the school across the neatly arranged treetops and dirt track avenues.

"So This bet-"

"It's a game." Donghyuck corrected.

Mark clicked his tongue with a blank expression. "Alright then this game. We have to convince the school that we are dating."

"Yes."

"Why?"

Donghyuck rolled his eyes. "Because mark; it's a challenge. It's one of the most unlikely things that could happen at this school. The hardest to believe. It's fun."
