"taeil?!" mark exclaimed once he noticed his friend standing in the doorway.

"huh... yeah?"

"why the hell are you here?" mark asked harshly.

donghyuck and him had now meters separating them, both sitting at each end of the bed.

"i heard noises inside your room, so i guessed you were back home. i didn't know you had brought someone with you though." taeil explained with a head motion towards donghyuck.

"no but- why didn't you leave with the others?" mark asked again.

"oh... we drew lots to choose who would stay here with you." taeil told, his eyes glued to donghyuck who was playing with his fingers. "and i lost."

"i'm not a kid anymore. i can stay alone for three days." mark scoffed.

"speaking about kids, what's this one doing here?" he asked pointing at donghyuck.

mark looked at his boyfriend who just wanted to disappear right now.

"this is not a kid. this is donghyuck."

the name rang a bell to taeil.

"donghyuck? the unknown number of the other day?" he asked mark. "the one that wanted to know if you hadn't gotten scolded for getting home late?"

mark nodded. "yeah, he's the one."

"oh..." taeil let out, exanimating donghyuck from head to toe.

that's when he recalled the conversation they had that day with their friends.

why this unknown boy that sent mark messages seemed perfect for mark.

and if he couldn't get why mark said they wouldn't like the boy; he understood the problem perfectly now.

"so... that's the reason why we won't like him? because he's a kid?" taeil asked.

mark nodded slowly, his hand stroking donghyuck's thigh.

"what's your... relationship?"

"he's my boyfriend." mark said.

"boyfriend?! since when?"

"three weeks ago."

taeil scratched his head. "so that's why you're always out. for him?"

"yeah."

taeil nodded.

"please, we're aware that people won't like the fact we are together..." mark said slowly. "we're staying hidden, and you discovering wasn't planned. we'd like to keep our relationship going, you know?"

"yeah, yeah." taeil nodded.

"so, it would be great if you could... keep the secret."

"don't worry." taeil smiled. "i'm okay with you two being together. you have the right to love whoever you want. i'm not sure the others would be as acceptant as me though..."

"yeah, i know how narrowminded they can be..."

"so... are you two going to stay in this cave forever to fuck?" taeil asked without any delicacy – which made donghyuck flush red immediately – "or are you coming to have a drink with me to the kitchen? donghyuck, i expect you to be responding." he said with a smile in donghyuck's direction.

"huh... a d-drink to the k-kitchen."

"good." taeil smirked. "we got all sorts of liquors that i'm sure you'll- "

he got cut by mark hitting the back of his head.

"no alcohol for him. he's still a minor." he said with fire in his eyes.

"fine... then, we got the diluents, but trust me, they taste better with alcohol in it."

"TAEIL!" mark warned.

"okay, okay."

ϟ

later that night, when the sun was setting, mark had to bring donghyuck back home because his curfew was approaching dangerously.

donghyuck saluted taeil, with whom he had spent an agreeable afternoon – after all, all bikers weren't war machines – and mark and him prepared to go.

mark lent donghyuck one of his old leather jackets and a pair of gloves and put on his head his old helmet before dressing himself.

then, mark carried donghyuck to his motorbike and settled him on the bolide, sitting in front of him just after.

and in fifteen minutes of being one with the wind, a wonderful feeling, they were at donghyuck's house.

mark undressed donghyuck of his jacket, helmet and gloves before taking his own helmet off.

"thank you for today." donghyuck smiled.

"well, i'm sorry about taeil..."

"stop apologising. he accepted us!" donghyuck smiled.

as mark was about to answer, donghyuck's phone rang. the younger took it out of his pocket and looked at the caller.

"it's your mother. you should go." mark said.

"yeah." donghyuck nodded. "bye mark."

"bye baby boy." mark smirked, passing his arm around donghyuck's waist.

in a second, their lips collided in a pleasant feeling.

donghyuck moaned slightly when mark glued his body against his.

their kiss lasted for a few instants, lips moving slowly against each other, but shyly. it stayed innocent. mark didn't want to go too fast for his boyfriend, but at the same time, he just wanted to pin him to a wall and devour him.

so, slowly, he parted his lips and let his tongue wander on donghyuck's plump lips, caressing them from left to right.

donghyuck, feeling something wet poking at his lips, pulled out from the kiss.

"what was that?" he asked.

"my tongue, baby boy."

donghyuck lowered his head, feeling stupid for not understanding. but what could he do? he had never kissed any one.

"hey?" mark tilted donghyuck's chin up. "i'm sorry, was it too fast?"

"no... it's just... i don't know how to do..." donghyuck said cutely.

mark chuckled. "just go with the flow." he explained, approaching his face from donghyuck's.

and once again, their lips met. this time, mark's lips parted faster, and donghyuck followed his movement, allowing mark to slide his tongue inside his mouth, to play with his boyfriend's tongue.

it felt weird. having someone's tongue playing with yours felt weird. and what felt even weirder was that piercing mark had on his tongue that rolled smoothly against donghyuk's.

donghyuck moved his wet muscle against mark's, following everything he was doing to do nothing wrong.

they stopped kissing after some time, both opening their eyes as if they were in a fairy-tale.

"how was it, baby boy?"

donghyuck flushed. "g-good."

mark smiled. "now you should go home or your mother is going to scold you."
