Gangsta ~ Markhyuck

chapter 21

the small but sleek black car glistened under the bright lights proudly boasting the title of a nismo gtr

he swung the door open and grinned as he ran he hands over the intricate interior

the key was always there, ready to ignite the rest of the car to life

pushing the start mark could feel the engine surge with power as it roared to life

wasting no time he carefully drove out of the garage, making sure not to damage the other pricey vessels

he glanced back at the house, lights lit in all the windows but one 

he tore his gaze away from the house and sped down the twisting driveway into the brightly lit city, not caring about where the road took him

... 

donghyuck lay awake in the light of the moon, unable to let sleep overcome him. he was drained after what felt like hours of crying

jaemin and renjun had entered on the boy being an emotional mess of the floor and jeno had to stop the duo from trying to find mark and mauling the boy

he couldn't help but felt mark was being selfish. jaemin and renjun were in the same position so why couldn't mark make an effort?

donghyuck sighed, waiting for the sound of marks return

he coughed as an attempt to rid his throat of the parched feeling, but in the end, decided to slip out of bed and make his way down to the kitchen

donghyuck was careful not to make any loud noise that could wake the sleeping inhabitants of the house and fumbled around in the dark for the light switch

he squinted to adjust his eyes to the brightness after flicking the lights on

donghyuck dragged himself to the sink, grabbing a random cup and chugging down the water

feeling sorry for himself, he dug around the freezer in the hopes of finding a sweet comfort food, much to his pleasure an unopened tub of sorbet stood there proudly, begging to be eaten

he sat lonesomely on the large island, letting himself eat mindlessly as his thoughts dragged him away from reality

he didnt hear the car park outside or the fumbling and opening of the front door

what caught his attention was a bloodied mark limping into the kitchen, not noticing the dull sun silently eating out his emotions

donghyuck coughed lightly causing mark to whip around

donghyuck gasped as he saw blood dripping out of marks nose and a harsh red mark on the side of his cheek

marks eyes widened at the sight of donghyuck "w-why are you still awake?" he stuttered as donghyuck walked towards him

"couldn't sleep" donghyuck murmured back as he gently touched marks face, drawing his hand back when mark hissed in pain from the stinging in his cheek

donghyuck seemed to regain his senses and rushed to the freezer 

he came back with an icepack, handing it to mark as he wet a cloth. gently wiping away the blood ignoring marks burning stare
