"hyung, can we stop by mcdonald's? i'm hungry." jisung whined from the backseat, earning a smack over the head from chenle who had tagged along. "do you have mcdonald's money? that's what i thought." the older hissed sassily, making jisung pout.
"well that saves a trip." mark mumbled, continuing to drive in the left lane towards the shopping mall he suggested they go to. "just go to mcdonald's i'll pay." freya sighed lowly. it was barley audible but mark caught it, nodding his head and switching lanes.
"are you okay? you've been kind of quiet today." he questioned, turning on his blinker so he could turn off of the freeway. she hummed, turning the music that was coming from her headphones down. "just dissociating a little." she sighed.
mark was confused to say the least, not to mention worried. the girl had been like this the minute they left the house, randomly twitching and staring off into space and picking at the skin on her thumb nail.
he felt helpless in this situation, knowing it had something to do with her 'fight' with yeonjun earlier. it had to be, there was no other reason she could possibly be this distant.
"are you okay? we can go back if you feel uncomfortable." the older gave a look of concern. freya looked at him right in the eyes with a straight face, but her eyes told that she longed to be back at the base. "take them to mcdonald's though."she mumbled, turning her music back up and going to gaze out of her window.
it was a bit foggy outside, creating a pretty sheet of white that misted over the city. the soft sound of salty by the boys playing from freyas headphones. other then that the only sounds that could be heard were jisungs small complaints about how they weren't going to mcdonald's and chenle scolding him.
mark looked over to the girl when she, again, shivered lightly. sighing, he hesitantly took the initiative to reach over and grab her hand, intertwining it with his and bringing it to sit on his lap while his other hand stayed on the steering wheel.
freya watched as the boy ran his fingers over her knuckles, the motion calming her down a little bit more. it was a small gesture yet it meant so much to the girl. she was in such an anxious state of stress that it was becoming overwhelming. thankfully, mark truly was observant enough to help her; she mentally thanked him for it.
"MCDONALDS!" jisung exlaimed, causing everyone but freya to flinch. "i thought you said we weren't going hyung." he frowned, popping up in the middle of the two front seats. "freyas paying, she told me to take you guys." the canadian mumbled, looking over at the girl who kept her gaze on the window.
jisung smirked as he caught sight of their intwined fingers. he leaned back to sit next to chenle again, pointing and mouthing about the unusual sight.
chenle furrowed his brows, leaning to look. "doesnt freya noona not like people touching her?" he whispered to the younger who shrugged. "i think the only people i've ever seen her touch for longer then 3 seconds is jin hyung and mark hyung." he whispered back with a giggle, causing chenle to giggle as well.
"stop gossiping school girls, what do you want." freyas harsh voice from the front seat caused the two to jump practically out of their skin, stuttering out their orders.
