Gangsta ~ Markhyuck

chapter 9

"BREATHTAKING" 

mark grinned at the boy, feeling his heart rate slowly increase at his praise

"let's get on with this work"

the time seemed to fly past as the two ploughed through the stack

donghyuck was pleasantly surprised at marks diligence and intellect, heck he even learnt a couple of things from him

as cheesy as it sounded he felt as if he had seen a new side to the boy through the jokes and conversations they held, even if it was just about schoolwork

he wouldn't mind the few weeks of doing this

as quickly as it started it finished

mark offered a ride back to his house but donghyuck politely refused

"at least let me drive you to a bus stop, wouldn't want you getting lost down the road," he said, referring to the complicated route leading to the house

with that donghyuck arrived at the bus stop, waving a small goodbye to mark who drove off back towards the direction of the exquisite mansion

cutting off his connection from his surroundings donghyuck put in his headphones, head slightly moving to the beat of the music, not realising he was humming along, soon silently singing to himself

not noticing the figure watching him until it tapped his shoulder

looking up he looked at the person who had done it

an boy, he guessed around his age or older was smiley shyly at him

donghyuck recognised him from school, he had seen him hanging around two other students often, one with strong brows and a sharp-angled face, the other who looked eerily similar to ten

"i heard you singing, you're really good" the boy said shyly

donghyuck blushed in embarrassment "oh sorry,  i didn't mean to"

"no don't be, your voice is so pretty"

"i'm yangyang" he said holding his out for a handshake

donghyuck returned it with a smile "lee donghyuck"

the boys made small talk, realising they were both waiting for the same bus and sat next to each other

donghyuck got off at his stop which happened to be before yangyangs

"bye yangyang, nice meeting you"

"same, maybe we could hang out at school or something" he suggested

donghyuck nodded, pulling out his phone to suggest exchanging numbers

once they did he waved to the boy, exiting the bus and making his way to his house

realising just how late it had gotten as the sun painted the sky with orange and pink streaks

meanwhile, the boy on the bus spoke into his phone, his eyes following donghyuck as the bus drove away, continuing its route
