Mark crashed at Donghyuck's place that night, too terrified to risk going back to his own apartment and seeing that Renjun was still there.
"Why is everyone barging in here like they own the place?" Donghyuck had muttered after allowing Mark through the front door.
Mark perked up at the complaint.
"Who else is staying?"
"Jaemin and Jisung."
"Chenle?"
Donghyuck gave a flippant wave of his hand.
"Visiting his family for the holidays like the loser he is."
He gave Mark a suspicious glare as he slowly shut the door behind him.
"You didn't invite Renjun and Jeno, did you? 'Cause I seriously have no more room for you greedy gremlins."
Mark offered a wry smile at the assumption.
"Nah, just me tonight."
He gave a long once-over of the living room before turning back toward Donghyuck.
"Mind if I crash on your couch tonight?"
If Donghyuck had been surprised by the notion, the only reaction he offered was a stilted breath released into the still air.
"Yeah, yeah. Fine, whatever. Just don't go complaining to me if you wake up to Jaemin pouncing on top of you."
Mark offered the younger a soft smile.
"Thanks, Hyuck."

Buried underneath the dusty comforter that Donghyuck had unearthed from the couch's ottoman, Mark stared straight at the shadowed form of the television and listened to the hushed voices down the hall that were evidently unaware that their bedroom door was open.
"Why's Mark-hyung sleeping over?" Jisung's voice whispered harshly, inexperienced in speaking quietly purposefully.
"Dunno. I didn't bother drilling him for answers when he looked like he was on the verge of a mental breakdown," Donghyuck's gentle voice answered simply.
"You think he got into an argument with Injoonie?" Jaemin's curious voice wondered.
"Them? Arguing?"
Donghyuck released a quick breath of disbelief.
"I think Mark Lee just finally got his head out of his ass and doesn't know how to deal with the aftermath."
