*Marks POV
School finally ended. I pack my notebooks and pens and grab my board.

"See you tomorrow JB!" I shout and wave at the younger. JB nods waves goodbye.

I rush out the classroom and to the front gates. I needed to check up on Jackson. I knew he was upset. I knew he needed to be comforted.

"Hey hyung!" I look over and see BamBam and Yugyeom walking towards me.

I smile at them. "Hey. What's up?"

"We were wondering if your free." Yugyeom spoke up.

"I am not, sadly. And besides hanging with you two gets me in trouble." I say and adjust the hold of my board.

BamBam pouts. "Oh come on!"

"One, don't pout. It doesn't suit you." I say with a laugh.

"Two, I need to get home. I have some unfinished projects I need to work on." What a lame excuse.

"Hmm, fine. But next time and you're paying!" BamBam says.

I nod and say goodbye.

Jackson's probably halfway home.

I exit the school gates and get on my board. I push myself and look around to find the younger.

I turn a corner and see a figure walking.

"Jackson!" I shout and ride faster. He stops and looks behind him.

"Mark.." He sounded upset. His eyes were red and puffy. He was crying.

I get off my skateboard, not bothering to pick it up. I grab Jackson and hug him tightly.

He started to shake and cry.

"I'm sorry." I whisper. This was my fault. I was the reason for this.

When we first got together. I told Jackson I wasn't ready to come out to our friends. I wasn't ready for our relationship to be exposed by them and everyone else.

And he was a bit sad about it. But he understood my reasoning. He said he'll wait. No matter how long it took.

"You shouldn't be sorry. I knew what I was getting into." Jackson says voice shaky.

I hug him tighter.

I couldn't lose him due to my reasoning. But I just wasn't ready yet.

"One day. I promise. One day, we'll tell them." I say and hold him close in my arms.

Jackson hugs me tight. I feel him nod.

"Let's go home." I say as I pull away. I grab and hold onto his hand. I bent down and picked up my board with my other.

I had an odd feeling though. As if we were being watched. I felt nervous about it. But I brushed it off.

Jackson is my first priority. I needed to comfort him.

"I love you." I say and squeeze his hand.

Jackson's mood was getting better. He smiles at me.

"I love you too."
