"hana wake up!! mark wake up!! taeyong and i have to go to our photoshoot for elle korea, don't forget to eat you two okay?" irene said quickly shaking the two as they were cuddled together refusing to leave the bed all morning.

"okay unni, bye" hana muttered and with that she left. everybody has been busy with either promoting their new side jobs/opportunites to fill the time for when they weren't making a new album or releasing new music.

"ya mark, wake up. we have to film our music video today right? what time do we have to be on set?" hana said shaking him making the boy let go of his wrapped arms on her and rubbing his eyes.

"i think so, in like 15 minutes, let's head to the car and drive there. they said, we should finish filming takes today and it'll be released end of this week at the latest." mark mentioned.

"sounds good babe" hana said as she stared at her closest wondering what to wear. right after she felt arms wrap around her again before feeling a bunch of kisses on her face.

"yah mark!" she yelled before they started giggling and get on with their day.

a couple days later

"everyone come to the living room!! the music video is out!!" kun yelled as he set up the projector while the older were fixing up the messy pizza and chicken boxes as the younger rushed in the room to bring blankets and pillows for everyone. while shotoro and sungchan set up the cameras to film their live reactions. after a couple minutes and all 23 boys and four girls were huddled comfortably in the living room, mark reach foward as his finger hovered over the play button.

"ah wait im nervous!!" mark said before leaning back and hiding his face while hana giggled next to him.

"ya all 26 of us are waiting, pali pali!" haechan jokingly teased as mark glared at him before everyone broke out in laughter, with that being said, they intently reverted their attention to the screen. excitedly to see what kun and the others help produced with mark and hana's song.

"yah! hana! you're acting so cutesy in this video, i cannot!" yangyang jokingly said as she landed a slap on his arm before everyone laughed.

"i'm always cute, why do you think enjoyed filming this music video so much?" hana said with a smirk on her face noticing to her other side tht mark was covering most of his face with the blanket and with the cute sight she gave him a gentle smile before looking at the hours.

"look at these cute young ones!!" irene cooed at the young ones with their flushed cheeks.

"what was your favorite part of filming mark?" johnny interrogated. while hana also anticipated a good response.

"well being with hana is fun so i guess everything?" mark said almost in a questioning tone and with that it left hana with her covering herself in her hood because of her flushed cheeks.

"the fans will love this!!" shotoro muttered unaware of the fact that mark heard him and whipped his head in his direction.

"the fans will see our reactions?" mark said while some giggled at his panicked tone.

"yeah, manager-nim told sungchan and i to set up some cameras for when we watch it." shotoro explained as sungchan nodded in agreement. while the others got distracted over time and they all talked, mark gave hana an unexpected hug.

"i'm proud of us babe, we came far." mark said snuggling closer to her.

"yes i am too, i love you mark" hana whispered before giving him a small peck on his cheek.

"i love you too" and with that being said, they found themselves at home, with each other.
