Chapter eleven

_____
He was now looking at Mark, who still looked sleepy.
- ummm what is it
- I heard a noise downstairs
- It's the rain, don't worry
- ...
- Ummm... I overslept
- I heard a noise!
- All right, come
Haechan got closer to Mark and looked at him. Mark sat him down on his bed.
- Wait here, I'm going to check downstairs, I'll be right back
- I'm sorry
- Don't say that. I'll be right back
Mark left the bedroom and went downstairs to the living room.
Meanwhile, Haechan sat on the bed and waited. He was unconsciously shaking and hoping Mark would come back soon. A few minutes later he heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Then Mark suddenly entered the room.
- it was tree branches outside banging against the windows.
- I'm sorry...I've bothered you for nothing
- No worries
- Umm...
- you can stay with me if you're scared
- Really?
Mark smiled
- mmm okay..
- Come on, get on the bed, I'll stay next to you
Mark lay down next to Haechan.
- it's raining so hard
- Yeah..
- I love thunderstorms
- I don't
- Wimp haha
Haechan looked away.
-.. sorry...
Haechan looked at him and then they both laughed.
- about what happened this morning...
- Mark I'm terribly sorry...I don't know what came over me...I just...
- No, don't blame yourself for that
- Yes, but...
- I kissed you back too
Haechan blushed and looked away from Mark. He felt his heart beating fast and now remembered that it was true, Mark kissed him back.
- why did you kiss me back...
- Ummm...
- ...
- I've wanted to for a long time
Haechan gasped and turned red. He didn't know what to say. Mark sensed that he looked embarrassed, so he continued
- I haven't stopped thinking about you since you bumped into me that day
- ...
- I know this must seem strange to you, even I don't understand...
- Mark...
- I think I have feelings for you...
He looked away and smiled. Suddenly, he felt a hand on his shoulder and the next seconds Haechan was kissing him. He pulled him closer, sat on his lap and they continued kissing.

After this long sweet kiss, Mark held Haechan against him and said:
- stay with me... I want to take care of you and protect you
- ....
- Stay with me...
Haechan hugged him even tighter and Mark sensed that he was crying.
He began to caress his hair to reassure him that he was there for him.

______7pm
The rain wasn't letting up, and the thunder was getting louder and louder.
- I think it's going to rain all night
- Oh..
- Are you hungry?
- No, I'm fine
- Are you sure?
- I'm really not
They were lying in bed, one against the other, looking at each other.
- I'm going to work tomorrow.
- Do you have to go?
- you want me to stay?
Haechan looked away. He felt extremely shy.
- I'll stay with you
- You won't have any problems at work...?
- No, don't worry
- ... okay
- Your face is so sweet
- Stop it!
- I haven't stopped thinking about it since we first met
- ...
- Your freckles...
- I hate them so much
- You shouldn't, they're so beautiful
Mark was now caressing Haechan's face tenderly and gently. Haechan looked into his eyes and was lost. He was falling in love.
