[au] renjun is in love with the idea of love and markhyuck are idiots

In my head renjun and jeno are roommates, jeno and mark work together, markhyuck are dating. Jeno invited renjun to a work nightout in which renjun spends most of it trying to workout where he recognises donghyuck from and it eventially clicks that he was the stranger from the bus

p.s. listen to cure by yoo youngjin and taeyong (nct) while reading this chapter

Seven long springs have passed and those two broken boys never saw each other again. The last thing Mark heard about Donghyuck was that his life took a 360 degrees turn after he left to Canada. He also heard that he got excepted to one of the best collages in Seoul ,but he wasn’t sure about that part.

Mark changed too,not dramatically though ,but he still did. He was still a great student and went to Harvard, but Donghyuck learned him something, life is too short. So ,Mark decided to live a little. His collage days were wild ,but he somehow still managed to be one of the top student. He got drunk,got high ,kissed so many people…Bu there is one thing he never did. He never fell in love again. Sometimes he still thinks he might be in love with Donghyuck.He never called or texted him like he said he wouldn’t and he ,obviously, never forgot him.

But, he kind of broke a part of the promise…he never stopped thinking about him. Every day,every night,every hour ,every minute and every second he was thinking of the boy who turned his life upside-down.

Mark got a nice job at this big company and is basically the CEOs right hand. He had everything a one person can wish for from a life…except for him.The one who he hasn’t stopped thinking of since the day he left.

So ,who knew that one day that seemed that it couldn’t go any worse actually became the best day of his life?

First of all ,he woke up late which never really happens to him. Then his precious coffee machine decided to stop working when he needed it the most and when he finally fixed it he managed to spill the coffee all over his white shirt… He just quickly changed and left without eating breakfast since he was scared how badly that action would end up.

Mark almost got hit by some random car while driving and just felt so relieved when he at least found an empty parking spot. While running towards the building he working in and trying to balance all the stuff he was caring ,he forgot to look in front of him and ended up bumping in to someones broad chest. His paperwork went flying in the air and he had no time to even apologize to the poor person he clumsily hit. He was surprised to see a man ,the one he probably bumped in to, helping him gather up his papers.

So, when Mark picked up the final paper he finally stood up and while letting a huge sign quickly started putting then in his briefcase. He was so focused he didn’t notice the kind person who helped him gather up his papers was giving them to him.

„I guess this time your suit fell and you were in it, right?“

That voice ringing in his ears sounded so familiar.Confused Mark decided to look up to finally see who the owner of this voice was.When he saw those two eyes looking back at him while smiling a bit,it all started to make sense.

„Donghyuck..“ Mark said ,which it sounded more like a whisper. But ,it was loud enough for the other boy, well now a man, to hear.His smile grew wider as he heard his name being called out by the person he wanted to hear say it the most.

„Still clumsy as always ,I see.“ Donghyuck added and finally gave Mark his files. The other male just stood there shocked not believing his own eyes.His eyes and mouth had a brain of their own I guess because soon tears started pouring down his face, which he didn’t even notice were wetting his face, while a huge smile started appearing on his face.

Donghyuck stared at him in confusion because he didn’t know what he did to make him start crying all of a sudden. He panicked and walked up closer to the boy wiping his ears with the end of his black blouse. Their faces were so close to each others, but it just felt so right. Even after seven years neither of them felt awkward being so close to each other.

Finally after a minute or so, Mark stopped crying and chucked a bit embarrassed that he didn’t even manage to say one full sentence,but God knows how many times he dreamed of this moment happening. Even though he wanted to say so many things , the only thing he managed to say sounded so out of nowhere .

„I missed you.“ Mark bit his lip starting to feel shy. Even as a grown man this guy managed to make him blush in a second. While on the other side, the other man felt like a huge rock was lifter of his shoulder when he heard that Mark felt the same way he did.

„I missed you too.“ He answered with a smile making its way on to his face. He looked to much more mature now. He was wearing a similar suit to Marks and had a briefcase of his own in his hands.

„I know we haven’t seen each other in a long time, but would you like to have a coffee after work with me? Because you see a little busy right now.“ He asked laughing a bit at his last sentence.They both started laughing even though nothing he said was that funny.

„Yeah, I’d love too.“ Mark answered his question after their laughter slowed down.

„So, it’s a date then?“ That question made both of the so nervous. Mark was shocked ,but that void he felt all these years finally felt like it was being filled. So, of course he said yes.

The whole day the both of them just couldn’t wait to exit their offices and meet at the cafe they agreed to meet in. It’s weird how after seven years it felt like nothing has changed. Yes, they were both older and a bit more calmer now, but they still had that fire in their hearts that felt like is going to burst any second. Even if this was just the first „date“ of their after a long time , it felt like everything was back to normal. They knew that they will be okay.
