✨🌸 Chapter 63 🌸✨

~•~

A few days had passed since that odd incident, and Jaemin now found himself with four of the others in his friend group, unfortunately including Jeno.

Never had he ever thought he'd be awkward around Jeno, but that proved very possible when the thought of his dream wouldn't leave his mind for anything. Any chance he had to himself, his mind would constantly wander back to that stupid dream and how weird it made things.

Right now they were sitting awkwardly next to one another, shoulders stiff and whistling in their minds as they waited for Mark to join them. The mall they were at was bustling, quite a busy day since it was Saturday and the children became wild.

Jeno was thinking in his mind that maybe Jaemin was still angry with him, since they haven't really spoken the past couple days or anything. But that was quite the opposite, Jaemin just had no idea how to spark a conversation without probably going down a mental spiral.

He just felt confused, confused of what he should make of that dream he had. It wasn't necessary the concept that made him feel so flustered, but more like the emotions that felt so real. It felt like he genuinely enjoyed it and felt a big spark between him and Jeno.

But that's impossible, right? Maybe it was just from what happened at the flower shop when Jeno made that move and his subconscious made a big deal of it. Yeah, that sounds about right.

Mark finally ran up to the five boys, noticing the awkward tension between two of them right away and having to flick his fingers in the other three's faces. Renjun, Chenle, and Jisung all looked up from this YouTube video they were watching, then becoming loud since Mark was finally here.

"Let's get to shopping! WOO!" Chenle cheered loudly and ran off somewhere, Jisung panicking and quickly running after him.

"You know, for once it'd be cool to all hang out as a group," Jaemin said and laughed to himself. But it seemed the couples always wanted some alone time for a bit which is completely understandable. Wait, speaking of couples...

"Agreed, but they're always super hyper-" Mark said, then suddenly cut off as Jaemin walked in front of him, grabbing the collar of his shirt as he stared dead into his eyes.

"You and Donghyuck. Donghyuck and you. You were kissing, mind explaining?" Jaemin said with a threatening look, making Mark waver as he put his hands up for defense.

Jeno watched the scene unfold, swallowing as Jaemin brought that up. Please don't ask about the glowing, please.

Mark looked over at the dark haired for help, but he only shook his head and gestured for him to do the explaining. The Canadian sighed, looking back at Jaemin's creepy gaze.

"Okay... maybe just possibly me and Donghyuck decided to make it official last night. Happy?"

Jaemin stared at him for a long moment, the older not able to read his expression as the seconds ticked away. Suddenly, Jaemin's deadly look turned into an excited smile as he violently wrapped Mark into a hug, squealing loudly and drawing attention.
