It's hard to love you ➸ m.t & t.c

Chapter 38

Tzuyu's POV

When we got back to our dorm Chae Young panicked because she forgot her phone there so I insisted to go for it.

"Thank you Tzuyu~ I'll buy you coffee tomorrow!" She whined.

"It's nothing." I smiled.

"Isn't it because you want to meet Mark again?" What Ji Hyo said made me blush.

"Maybe..." I giggled.

As I got out I heard some loud voices from their dorm.

"I won't break up with Tzuyu just because of your stupid promise..."

It was Mark's voice.

What's happening?

I didn't understand English that much. But I heard my name.

"No! I won't do it! I'll never ever break up with her! I don't care about that fiancé!" He ran out of the dorm and bumped into me.

"Tzuyu?" He looked at me shocked.

"What happened? Is there something wrong or-" I looked at him curiously and noticed a red mark on his cheek.

"What happened to your face?"

"Huh-? Ah this? I-I-"

"Mark, are you- Oh, Tzuyu?" His mom popped out from the door.

"Ah! I just-" Mark suddenly cut me off by gripping my wrist and pulled me somewhere else.

"L-Look Tzuyu... I-I..." He was stuttering and shaking a bit.

"Calm down and tell me what happened between you and your parents." I gave a warm smile and held his hands.

"I'm sorry..." He pulled me into an embrace.

"Everything is going to be okay." I patted his back. Even though I knew there was something wrong.

He didn't want to go back to his dorm.

"Come on... Don't be such a baby Mark. You're not going to sleep in girls' dorm again." I frowned.

"Oh you're wrong, babe. Yes, I'm going to." He said smirking.

"No one would let you in though."

"Please~~" He whined and pouted his lips.

I sighed.

With this face who would reject him...

"Fine." And his face lit up.

"But first go and get Chae Young's phone for me. And also apologize your parents. They raised you after all." I pushed him in front of his dorm's door and knocked on it.

"Mark-" He interrupted Yugyeom and went straight for Chae Young's phone.

Then he went to apologize his parents.

For one apology it took a long time.

............

"So.. Just because he argued with his parents he's going to sleep over here?" Jung Yeon glared at me.

"Do you know what is actually weird?" Mark and me shook. "That Mark is the only one from GOT7 who slept here."

"Me and Jackson are together for a longer time and he's never slept here." Da Hyun glared at me.

"Well... The first time was because he forgot his keys and the second time because... he came back earlier than the others." I said flatly.

"Okay... But he still sleeps on the couch." He nodded.

*timeskip*

Around 2 am I got up to get some water.

When I went out from my room I saw a light.

Mark's phone.

"You're not sleeping yet?" I asked him quietly.

"I can't sleep." He sat up.

"Is it because of the thing you argued with your parents?" I sat down beside him. He hummed.

"What is it? If you can tell me." I glanced at him.

"I can't." He looked down.

"If you tell someone, you'll feel better." I smiled and he just looked up and stared at me.

His eyes were fill with sadness.

I slowly pulled him into an embrace and let his chin rest on my shoulder.

"Things will be alright. Maybe not now. But it will someday."

"I'm scared, Tzuyu. I'm scared that we can't be together. I'm scared one day you won't trust me anymore. I'm scared of the truth. I'm scared... of losing you." He cried.

"I won't leave you. Even if you and me can't be together, we will find another way to be. If the God won't let us, I'll change our destiny to be with you again. I'll love you no matter what. I'm yours, Mark." I said whispering.

"Forever, after our deaths, in our next life. For good."

"You can change everything if you want to."

"I know you know it. But still... I love you. Sincerely." I kept talking and then I probably realized.

I could hear his heart beat. It was fast.

"Sing for me, Tzuyu." He said with a husky voice.

(FYI this is IOI-Downpour and I know she doesn't sound like Tzuyu but I really like her covers - Chloe94 is her channel on Youtube)

He fell asleep as I was singing.

I slowly let him laid down on the couch as I finished.

"I hope all your stresses and worries are just a passing downpour. Good night, Mark." I pecked his lips and stood up to left.

"Please don't go..." He whispered, but enough for me to hear it.

I laid down on his right.

Took his left hand and held it.

"I won't."
