A/N: it’s 1 am n im sad so I decided to write.
It wasn’t usually like this. Mark was always the perfect soulmate, he never tried to control me or limit my freedom, he was nothing but a carefree trustful companion that I was in love with- Or, I’m still in love with.
Until, Lee Donghyuck came around.
Donghyuck or ‘Hyuck’ as he asked people to call him, is your typical high school sweetheart, with a beautiful grin and a natural aura that attracts crowds and keeps them captivated to his honey skin, he was every teenage girl’s dream. Angelic voice. Wonderful personality. And a hint of adventure.
So it was only natural that mark started feeling a bit threatened by him when he first talked to me, on a Tuesday morning when he sat beside me during a free period to ask about the book I was reading. Soon enough, the two of us started talking about books, movies, music and other stuff we had in common.
I didn’t notice mark staring at me, though.
Then Wednesday came around, hyuck approached me again to tell me about this new band that debuted who was hitting it big early in their career, we drifted from one conversation to another but yet again,
That’s how it kept happening, hyuck and I’s friendship kept growing and growing, much to mark’s dismay. Of course I still put mark above everything, I always tried including him in Hyuck and I’s conversations, I sat with him through breakfast, lunch and sometimes dinner.
Mark and I, we had a bond so unbreakable it started making people jealous, a bond they envied. they’d look at us and say...’I want a love like theirs.’ We understood eachother so well, our emotions and feelings were always out in the open, so honest and sincere. Always been able to read eachother well.
Yet, I couldn’t read the jealous fire in mark’s eye when I was sharing a sandwich with Hyuck, I couldn’t see the pure rage in his features, the tightness in his hold on me in the halls, the undertone of the things he’d say to me.
I was so caught up in my new friend to understand.
Until one faithful night, mark decided to be straight up about it, to spit it out and get it over with.
“I don’t like Donghyuck.” He began
It clicked. He was jealous.
“Mark, are you jealous of Donghyuck?”
“So what if I am? You don’t see how you act around him!”
“He’s just my friend. Nothing more.”
“Goddamnit, he’s obviously crushing on you!”
“Yes! He bloody does! You don’t see how he looks at you when you turn your head the other way.”
“Don’t you trust me?” I said, my voice shaky,
“Of course I do, darling-“
“Then you’ll understand that I would never even think of him as anything more than my friends. I love you, mark. Only you. I fell in love with the guy who gave me his heart and a pair of wings for whenever the world tried to cut mine off.”
“I just...I don’t like seeing you with other guys. Cause you’re mine. Mine only.”
“Mark, I am yours. Always been. Always will be.”
“I love you so much more”
“Even more than you love Hyuck?”
“Hey, you just called him Hyuck!”
