[FANFIC] Of Fluffy Confession and Dispatch (Mark)
Fluff, GOT7âČs Mark x You (first point of view)
scenarios : you are a member of a JYP rookie girl group that almost debut, and Dispatch caught you and Mark dating on the night when your debut teaser launched. At the same time, GOT7 was going to make their comeback. To make things clear, Mark have to make his move alone.
I swap the iPad screen that Mark held to the left to see the next picture. I could only mouthed incoherent curse upon seeing what I saw. âDammit,â I said in English.
âDid they follow us behind?â Mark wondered. âThis is insane. Dispatch is insane. How could they recognise itâs me? I didnât wear any makeup--I even wore mask and sunglasses at night! And ugh--that snapback is Jacksonâs!â
âOh my God,â I mouthed again. âI never see you to be this talkative, baby,â I added.
âBut our photos came out good, though,â he said. âMaybe I have to save this. Donât you think so, baby?â
I rolled my eyes. âThis is not the right time to throw some joke, Tuan Yi En.â
He held the picture then touched the save button. âDo you think Iâm kidding?â he sang the refrain from BTSâ Danger. I sighed. Mark is no joke.
âBrother Tuan, snap back to reality,â I clicked my finger right in front of his eyes. He jumped out of shock but then laughed and circled his left hand around my neck. After all these relationships, I am used to his affectionate skinships already. âListen, Mark Yi En. I--â
âBaby could you please stop calling me--â
âOkay, Mark baby,â I rolled my eyes once again just to see him grinning widely just by hearing me calling him baby. âOh you are so whiny. Now, listen well, okay?â
âIâm gonna make my debut on the next few days,â I sighed.
âOr maybe few weeks to be exact,â he cut me again.
âMARK!â I shouted. He laughed and said sorry while patting my head. âListen. The most important thing is, both of us have our activities planned in near future. GOT7 is making comeback, so Iâm also gonna make my debut. This scandal, of course, will affect directly into our activities.â
âYou got the point, darling,â he smiled. âI have a plan in my head already. But I need JYP hyungnim to cooperate with me.â
Uh oh. If Mark said he has a plan, Iâd better prepare for the worst.
âAnd you,â he continued. âPlease, just believe me, could you?â
âWhy should I?â I asked.
âIâve got things in my hand. Imma make things clear and smooth,â he grabbed my face with both of his hands and made me to have the eye contact with him. Although we often do this kind of thing, but seeing him up close still feels the same as taking triple amounts of caffeine. âListen to my amend. No matter what happens after what I might say later, I will protect you.â
âListen. Iâm so sorry to make things hard. I believe a lot of my fans have sent you terrors and bad comments by now, as youâve read at that news. And this scandal will also affect your group as well as my comeback. I know youâre worrying that. I know youâre scared right now. Youâre scared upon small things. Youâre scared of seeing people misjudge you,â
âIâve already known the consequences of dating outside, but I still do it. Itâs my fault,â he continued. â So please, let me protect you. After all, Iâm your man right?â
âBut about that 3 years rule?â I asked.
âIt isnât written in the contract, though. Itâs just our self-made amend. Nichkhun made his move onto Tiffany on his 2nd year,â he explained. âSo, will you believe me?â
When I was about to answer him, his phone rang. And I got the feeling whoâs calling. I heard him spoke incoherent Korean for some minutes, then he hung up the phone. âJYP called,â he said. As expected.
âGo,â I said. âIâll continue practice. The girls are arriving in--â
Then I heard the door opened. âThere they are,â I said to Mark as we stood up.
âGuys,â Boram was the first girl who opened her mouth. âMark oppa, please take care of her well. Consider us too.â
âWill do,â Mark smiled. âImma see hyungnim now. Good luck on your practice guys!â
Mark turned to me for a real quick peck. I could see his eyes full with fear heâs afraid to tell, but I wonât bother to ask right now. âIâll visit again when things are settled.â
He walked to the door and shouted for him to tell the boys. âHe told them already,â was the thing that Jihyun said to me. I nodded. I felt anxious.
Break time. I opened my phone the time when Mark sent a message to me.
Stream entertainment weekly rn.
Wondering why, I ran to the girls and asked them to stream it for me. And what I saw made me shocked and panicked. What did Mark do?
âHeâs sure a gentleman,â Jihyun mouthed. I rolled my eyes and typed a quick message.
R u crazy? Wru? What r u doing?
Right after I hit send, the narrator said the purpose of that press atmosphere. I saw Mark accompanied by JB and JYP--our CEO. âAs what we see, Mark is deciding to have a open press conference to tell us the truth about the scandal last night.â
âOkay, the first question?â the moderator asked. A reporter raised a hand.
âAre the rumours true?â
Mark hesitated at the second, but then nodded. âFirstly,â he said. âI would like to make an apologize to IGOT7 for making this chaos. Even though I want to say that the rumour is true, I still spare a space in my heart for IGOT7.
âEven though I am a public figure, I am still a human that has love. I still have the same right as a human, including rights to freely love and freely involve in a relationship. Although some of the fans may feel sad and angry, but I need you guys to understand. Canât you be happy if I am happy?â
âTo be honest, this is the first time Mark made a long speech smoothly,â said JB. âAs the leader of GOT7, Iâve known this relationship since the first time theyâre together. I also would like to apologize in behalf of Mark and GOT7, but please understand. This is not only Markâs plea, but I strongly believe Mark spoke for all of the public figures in Hallyu. So, please support Mark for his relationship and his career with GOT7 with all your love for GOT7 and Mark.â
Another reporter raised a hand. âI heard that JYP has the relationship ban for 3 years of debut, but Markâs girlfriend hasnât started her debut yet.â
âFirst of all,â JYP started to open his mouth. âI never state about the rule. Itâs not written on the contract--but itâs just our artistsâ commitment. I also know about this relationship. At first I was afraid that she wonât focus on her debut, and Mark wonât focus on GOT7. But I was wrong. This couple supports each other. Because of her, Mark has become the better Mark, and so does she.â
âShe takes care of us,â JB added.
âSo, Iâm not against this relationship,â JYP concluded. âAs long as the relationship doesnât disturb their focus on their individual and grouped career, Iâm supporting it.â
âOh, youâre getting the green light from the boss,â Boram sang. I rolled my eyes. âArenât you glad getting a boyfriend like Mark?â
âThatâs just making your and Jinyoung oppaâs way easier to go public?â I mocked then continued to see what happened.
âMark-ssi, for I have seen you have been involved in scandals before, I wonder what makes you choose this girl over the others?â asked a reporter.
Mark was silent for a moment, then a smile drawn on his face. âFirst, sheâs innocent. The most innocent girl Iâve ever known.
Second, she takes care of me well. Sheâs the dumbest girl Iâve ever met, as well as the most foolish person Iâve ever known. She gets close with people easily. She likes to read classical books with a cup of Starbucks. She goes crazy over Caramel Macchiato just because of a song,â Mark explained. âWhen she smiles, she shows dimples and wrinkles around her eyes. She thinks about people before herself. Sheâs the one who strive for perfection. Sheâs so loveable and fragile, makes me feel like I need to protect her.
Every time I see her smile, I always think that I need to work hard just to see that smile again. Her worries worry me most, and her successes make me shed tears of happiness. She makes me into a better Mark without her realizing it. She makes me know what love means, and what love can do. I want to protect her and telling her to love herself, as she always thinks about what people say about her then stresses about it. She even go bulimic because some people said she was fat although sheâs not.â
âYou did that?â asked Boram. I kept my mouth shout.
âMark was stressed so much every time she went to the toilet--to the point that Mark followed her behind,â JB added. âIâve never seen Mark become like this before he met her. And now, Mark becomes more open to us. Iâm very thankful to her for her ability to change Mark into a more extroverted person.â
âI guess thatâs the last question for this press conference, as both Mark and JB have another schedule right after,â the moderator concluded the press conference.Â
Seconds later, I received a reply from Mark.
I laughed. How can he. Then I typed a reply.
I never know youâd talk that long. Good job anw
