"donghyuck sweetie?"

"hmm?" donghyuck hummed, mouth full of cereals.

"are you okay?"

donghyuck raised a brow and looked at his mother.

"huh... yeah. of course."

"that's good." she smiled, mixing the sugar she had put in her tea. "i don't want you bawling your eyes out every night over some boy that doesn't care about you..."

donghyuck internally laughed.

the fact his parents weren't aware that this 'boy that doesn't care about him' had spent the night in donghyuck's room and that he was still there, waiting for donghyuck to finish his breakfast was hilarious.

"it's okay, ma... i wasn't that attached to him anyways." he lied.

"i'm glad you're not too hurt. you see, we told you the right thing."

donghyuck nodded.

"i knew that boy wasn't the one for you. you need someone sweet... someone caring that will be here for you. you need someone like you, sweetie."

"yeah, i know..." donghyuck mumbled.

"now, don't stay in this house doing nothing. you can go out and have fun. and maybe you could start 'boy seeking' again?" she giggled. "i still want you to bring me a son in law."

"isn't it too soon? just after a breakup?"

"hyuckie... this relationship you had wasn't a real one... you two didn't love each other... and i'm sure the boy already had adventures with many people... so, no. it's not too soon. the faster you forget, the better it will be."

donghyuck held himself from yelling at his mother for all the mean things she had said. but, now was not the time to be busted. so, he kept his calm.

"you're right." he told bitterly. "i'll brush my teeth, get dressed and after i'll go out."

"good plans!"

donghyuck got to his room, closing the door behind him, not expecting to get pinned to it right after and be greeted by a hot make-out session.

he kissed mark back immediately, drowning in his embrace.

"you don't know what?" mark asked once they parted.

"no. tell me."

"taeyong sent me a message yesterday night, but i only saw it this morning. they convinced jaehyun and yuta that we could be together!"

donghyuck widened his eyes, throwing himself into mark's arms again.

"that's so cool!"

"of course, it is!" mark smiled brightly, spinning donghyuck around. "and they invited us to the amusement park to celebrate! they said we could come right now!"

"let's go then! i'll dress quickly and then we can go."

donghyuck got ready at the speed of light and left his house at the same speed while mark climbed down of donghyuck's room.

they met at the back of donghyuck's house, where mark parked his motorbike.

donghyuck and him hopped on, ready to go when donghyuck stopped mark.

"wait! mark!"

"what is it, baby boy?"

"can you bring me to the alley behind the school please? i need to do something before."

mark furrowed his brows. "behind the school? why? this place is full of homeless..."

"i know. but i have something to do. don't worry, i'll take the bus to the amusement park. pleaseeee?"

mark thought for a second. "i'll stay with you."

"no!" donghyuck said quickly. "i mean... you don't need to be there. but don't worry, i'll be careful. and i'll text you very often." donghyuck added, showing his phone that his parents had given back to him.

"if you say so." mark nodded before starting his engine.

ϟ

"donghyuck is still not here..." mark said, looking at his phone to read his last message over and over.

donghyuck had said the bus would be there in less than ten minutes, and mark had received this message eleven minutes ago.

"don't worry mark! it's surely the traffic! you know how much that thing is shitty." taeyong said.

"nothing would have happened if you had stayed with him." taeil stated. "why are you always doing things wrong? poor donghyuckie is alone..."

"stop stressing him more!" yuta slapped taeil's arm lightly.

"that's easy to say when your boyfriend is in your arms." doyoung snorted.

"yeah... my boyfriend." yuta smiled, hugging a happy sicheng tighter than ever.

just then, a bus pulled out, stopping right in front of the group of boys.

"the bus is there." johnny said, with no emotion in his voice, making mark jump up and down.

"sorry, there was a bit of traffic..." donghyuck got out, a smile plastered on his face. "hello guys!"

"it's okay, baby boy." mark pulled him into a kiss.

donghyuck pulled back quickly, walking to a male the boys hadn't noticed.

"let me introduce you him! he's a friend of mine, and he's around your age." donghyuck pulled the male towards the group of boys.

mark and jaehyun widened their eyes at the sight of the boy.

"h-hello. i'm aware i shouldn't be there, but donghyuck dragged me..." the boy smiled shyly.

all the bikers had their eyes glued to the new male, smiles on their faces. the only one not paying attention was johnny, who's eyes were staring blankly at a panel.

"no! it's perfectly okay! it will be cool to have you hanging with us!" mark said quickly, making the other boys widen their eyes. was mark openly cheating on donghyuck?

donghyuck grinned, winking at mark.

jaehyun walked towards johnny, waking him up from his trance.

"i think there's something that could interest you." he said with a head motion towards donghyuck.

"what did you say your name was again?" taeyong asked, shaking the boy's hand.

"chittaphon leechaiyapornkul. but you can call me ten."

and that's when johnny noticed the boy's presence, making him blush harder than ever.
