MARK felt a cool breeze rush across his skin, and the hairs on the back of his neck rose. He slowly stirred in bed, waking himself up as he opened his eyes. He looked around him, and noticed Haechan wasn't beside him. He then glances up to the window that was wide open, letting the spring breeze come through.

He slowly builds himself to sit up, rubbing his eyes and pushing back his bed head hair. His eyebrows were furrowed as the small house was dead silent, and guessed Jeno and Jaemin went home in the middle of the night. He gets out of bed, his feet touching the cold concrete floor below him. He walks over to the bathroom, taking care of his basic needs, but as he got done brushing his teeth he heard the front door being opened and closed. Mark quickly stepped foot out of the bathroom, looking to see who came in.

"Donghyuck?" Mark inquires, seeing his boyfriend walk in sluggishly.

Once noticing the others presence, the questioned boy looked over to meet Marks eyes. There was the smallest glint of guilt in them, and Mark couldn't help but let a confused face stir.

"What's wrong? Where did you go?" Mark asks, making his way to Donghyuck.

The other boy was now sitting on a stool near the island, resting his elbows on the table as he combed his hands through his hair rather aggressively. Mark wasn't getting the memo, if there was one to even get, and slowly sat in the other stool beside the distressed boy.

"Donghyuck, talk to me." Mark whispers, staring at his lover with concerned eyes.

"I turned last night." Donghyuck admits, staring down at the counter with dark eyes.

"You- you what?" Mark questions in disbelief.

"I turned! I turned into a you know what last night! I don't know why or how but I did! And you were right next to me- I could've- I could've hurt you! I don't even know what I was doing I can't even remember!" Donghyuck raises his voice word by word, and Mark becomes anxious with every sentence.

"Donghyuck it's fine, just calm down-" Mark tries, watching Donghyuck rise to his feet in frustration.

"I can't calm down Mark! These have been happening too often, what if I do something I'll regret? What if I hurt you? I can't control my shifts anymore, and if something happened to you without me knowing I'd- I'd...." Donghyucks sentence rushes to a whisper as he turns his back to Mark, who is biting his tongue.

"You'd do what Donghyuck?" Mark asks softly, getting up as he walks carefully over to him.

"I would lose myself." Donghyuck admits, fingers curling into a fist.

Mark catches Donghyuck off guard as he wraps his arms around the others middle from the back, leaning against him.

"You would never hurt me." Mark whispers assuringly.

"I know I wouldn't, but what if it would." Donghyuck questions desperately.

Mark stays quiet for a moment, thinking of a comeback to ease Donghyucks mind. He only tightens his grip around the other boys torso, closing his eyes.

"Even then, I don't care. I'll always be here, by your side. I promised that a long time ago." Mark says softly, letting his eyes fall close as he inhales his lovers scent.

"I'm now wondering what I did to gain a boyfriend like you in my past life." Donghyuck jokes, and Mark lightly laughs.

The taller of the two turns around to embrace the other, holding him close. They both give a sigh of comfort as they hold each other in the still house.

"I love you." Mark whispers.

"I love you too." Donghyuck repeats.

"I start work tomorrow!" Jeno yells in the boys ear sitting next to him.

"Ow ow! Why are you so excited? It's just work." Jaemin says flatly while covering his ear.

"It's our first time ever working in the city! We'll get paid Jaemin!" Jeno exclaims with a big smile.

"Why don't you ever get this happy whenever I take you out to eat?" Jaemin questions with a frown while being shaken by the other boy.

"Because your not paying me. Duh." Jeno explains rudely, and starts to get up from the couch.

"Oh no you don't." Jaemin yells and grabs the boys waist as he throws him down on the couch.

Jenos back lands on the cushions first, and he yelps in surprise at the sudden change of actions. Jaemins smile however made his bloom not a second later, and they both started giggling as they had a small cat fight.

"Hey, where do you think Mark and Hyuck are gonna work?" Jeno inquires, almost out of breath from trying to escape the other boy.

"Dunno, who cares." Jaemin laughs as he lifts his boyfriend over his shoulder.

"Jaemin! Put me down!" Jeno struggles with a flustered smile on his face.

"No can do princess, you shall sleep with me tonight." Jaemin mimics a royal tone jokingly, and heads to their bedroom.

The two boys once in their room roughhouse a little more, laugh a little more, and love one another as they embrace each other once the moon shines into their room. Heading off to sleep not knowing what was going to happen the next day, and not caring. The moment present was just enough to make them realize that maybe, life was truly beautiful.
