a cindrella story

the boy in light blue suit

Mark didn't like balls, he didn't like all those girls wearing their best clothes, doing their make ups and putting on their fake smiles to get his attention. He knew they only wanted him because of his crown, because he was going to be the next king after his father. Though there were some girls trying to get his younger brother jisung's attention too. That was clever too. Because in case something happens to mark, the crown will be passed to jisung. Girls were really really smart creatures weren't they?

"Getting bored i see."

Mark could say "fuck off, jeno" to his best friend who had been teasing him about this ball for days. But he was a prince and princes should not curse.

"Can you please go away and eat jaemin's face in one of those empty rooms? Believe me no one will find you guys this time."

Jeno laughed and whispered "we already did that, don't you worry minhyunggie"

"Hadn't your father said this will be the ball that you will choose your wife? You better pay attention to the girls. Or maybe guys. Who knows?" Jeno said with a wink and walked away to find his boyfriend.

Mark sighed and thought maybe he should regret telling jeno that he is bisexual. But he knew he could trust jeno. He can keep teasing him but he is a great friend. The best friend he can find.

He looked around a bit, tried to find a girl that was really "real" but couldn't find any. They were all blinking their eyes, smiling to his way in a "i'm the prettiest here" way. The only girl who he knew loved her for real in that room was one of his closest friends herin, but she was trying to find her crush hina and mark always loved her as a sister. So no, mark really couldn't find the girl he will marry even though his father forced him to do that.

While he was sitting on his throne, watching people in pretty clothes talk and dance, suddenly the big door of the ballroom opened and a man in a very light blue suit entered the room. His hair was dyed in an eye-catching shade of red and mark wondered if his personality was as fierce as his hair color and by the look in his eyes he guessed that yes, indeed, it was as fierce too. The soft tone of his suit was complimenting his beautiful, flawless, tan skin, making it's owner shine like the sun in a sunny day.

The boy looked up and made an eye contact with mark just to curl the corner of his lips to a smirk and walk away to talk with someone he knows.

That small smirk though, was enough to get mark's heart beating hard, got him sweating and all. What the hell was that?

"Oh my god oh my god oh my god mark!!" Jeno suddenly held his arm aggresivelly while jaemin was shaking his other arms "mark oh my god! We found the cutest angel ever!"

"He is so cute"

"So small"

"Oh my god had you seen his tiny nose? I wanna bop it!"

"Had you seen his small hands? I wanna hold them!"

"Guys guys calm down" mark said, trying to calm down his friends cause guests were interested in what prince's friends were making a fuss about.

"I thought you are in love with each other? How will you two date with the same boy?"

They both stopped and jaemin pouted. He didn't think about it like that.

"We can be in a poly relationship!"

"Oh god yes we can!"

Mark's confused expression got even more confused "what is a poly relationship?"

"It's-"

"Oh my god he is looking at here jaemin!!"

"Oh my god ajsbsjsnsjsj sorry mark we gotta go" jaemin said and pulled jeno to a cute and small boy's way.
