Jinyoung was depressed.

He had spent all of his life in Busan with the same friends and they had been to the same school, in the same grade, in the same class all their life. He was happy because it took him a long time to open up and he was happy with his one set of friends he’s had all of his life. Then his parents just had to ruin his life and announce in the middle of his high school years that they were moving to Seoul.

Like how can people even plan where to move in such a short time and tell their only son that they were going to change his life forever?

Jinyoung was so upset that during the entire moving process he didn’t talk to his parents and snuck out at night to spend as much time as possible with his friends that he had left till he had none.

They all came to send him off at his house before they had to drive to Seoul. The tearful goodbye had him heartbroken for days. He knew he could never make friends like the ones he had at home and even worse he was going to a large school where no one even spoke satoori.

He could just see his life going down the drain and the entire drive to Seoul he just listened to music and looked out the window then slept the rest of the way.

When he finally reached home, he helped his parents pack out because he was a filial son but that didn’t mean he forgave them.

Months passed and Jinyoung hated his new school. The people were too stuck-up for him and they were all caught up on materialistic things in life and he just wanted to happily live his life like a human should. The entirety of the sophomore class almost all ostracized him because he came in the middle of the school year, didn’t really talk much and also came to be the top in his classes pushing down the top students easily.

It’s not his fault that all he had left to do in his life was study. There was nothing to live for anymore in Seoul.

One day after his classroom duties, he was just strolling around school because he didn’t want to go home to his boring parents just yet. He walked by empty classrooms, some that were occupied by after school clubs, something he didn’t become involved in because he didn’t want to associate with anyone, he passed the library where most students slept instead of study and then he went to the basement. A part of the school he never thought to explore before and though he expected it to be abandoned it was unexpectedly clean and he heard music drifting down the narrow hallway.

Jinyoung being the curious person he is took it upon himself to search for the source of the sound. He wondered down the hallway till he reached the source of the sound and he could hear a song he has never heard before drifting from the room. He peaked his head into the closed door and came upon k-pop idol wannabes dancing different moves in front of the mirrored room.

Ah this must exist since he is in Seoul, he rolled his eyes and almost left the room till he heard the voice of one of the people in the room.

“Let’s run through this one more time” a deep voice drifted through the room.

Jinyoung’s eyes then caught sight of the source of the voice and gasped in shock.

It was the pretty, popular, red head senior boy, Mark, that everyone in school knew. I mean how anyone could not miss him with that bright red hair was a mystery. It was like a call for attention and he didn’t even need it from how pretty his face is.

Jinyoung had to admit that the only reason he enjoyed his school was that practically everyone there was Eye-candy but Mark was special. Jinyoung enjoyed catching small glances of him in the hallway and that is what made his school days tolerable.

“All right, everyone gather around.” The grey/silver haired male said and clapped his hands calling everyone’s attention. “You heard Mark hyung, we can’t win the dance competition unless we’re in sync.”

Im Jaebum.

Jinyoung immediately recognized him. He was the most popular junior because of his chic style and behaviour. All the girls and guys looked up to him.

“Ahhh! I’m all pumped for this!” a shorter male said with a loud voice.

Jinyoung’s face automatically scrunched up in disdain. That loud voice could only be Jackson. Jinyoung swears he only became the most popular person in his grade because of his outgoingness and loudness.

The boy that was in all black went over and slung a hand over Mark’s shoulder and yep…..it was Jackson.

The other 3 boys went around them and faced the mirror leading Jinyoung to get a look at all of their faces. One of the other 3 was Choi Youngjae, a freshman. Jinyoung knew him personally since he was also pretty quiet and he was really good at singing and was in the school choir.

The other two boys he didn’t know and they looked super young.

The taller younger boy ran to the stereo in the corner and turned the song on and then ran back to his spot.

Jaebum was the first to start singing.

I don’t have to try, don’t know why

Just seeing me makes them go crazy

My look, my style, my swagger

‘What the was this song’…..Jinyoung thought…..

The younger one who ran to turn on the radio sung next

Oh, I don’t do anything, just love myself

Just give a glance with a casual approach

Hey girl! How you doing?

(Girls Girls Girls they love me)

'Youngjae no…..not you too…..'

What’s with my body?

Jackson said, ‘I expected that’

(Girls Girls Girls they love me)

From birth until forever

The tall baby one sung again.

As much as Jinyoung hated the message he had to admit the song was catchy and he couldn’t help but like it. And even though it seemed inappropriate, it was true. Girls did love them, and so did many guys. Jinyoung kept secretly watching their performance and their choreography so badly. Like it was good in some parts but they were really off and it was really boring. Until after the second chorus.

They kicked Mark to the side and soon he did the most amazing thing Jinyoung has ever seen. He did a slow cartwheel then some more acrobatics that made him look like he was easily flying through the air.

“Wahhhhhh” he couldn’t help but say out loud but luckily enough the music was loud enough to cover his outburst. He knew the red head was perfect but seeing that just added to his perfection and made him much cooler in Jinyoung’s eyes.

The smaller baby faced one had a really cool rap that Jinyoung appreciated because back in Busan he was known to be a really talented rapper and dancer himself. But he stopped that and started singing when he came to Seoul and met Youngjae since he convinced him to practice his vocals with him.

‘He was too young to be singing about those kind of things’ Jinyoung mentally reprimanded them. Then Mark, Jaebum and Youngjae did another cool move where they pushed themselves off the floor and he couldn’t help but stare in awe. But it wasn’t at all of them. It was just the certain red-haired boy that kept catching his attention.

Low and behold, Mark’s part came and he had such a y rap voice. Jinyoung mentally complimented him and didn’t noticed that his mouth was hanging open while watching them.

Whether young or old,

They grab me and say let’s play

Whether they know me or not,

They say “Whatcha doin’? Let’s have a talk”

I wish I had a twin

Maybe clone myself like the Matrix

I am the only one, but am in high demand

Every lady wants a piece of me

Cocky as …..but it was so attractive on Mark and Jinyoung couldn’t help but envy the others as they got to hold his clothes and pull it away from his body.

The chorus came again which made Jinyoung close his mouth. He really couldn’t take such an arrogant song even though the vocals, rap and dance ability of all in the room were really good.

Then….Jackson got a dance solo….. ‘good for him’ Jinyoung thought but as soon as he thought it was done both him and Mark did a tumble which made Jinyoung almost squeal as much from delight as from being scared for the older to fall.  Mark then did another tumble that was so graceful Jinyoung’s heart raced as he saw the older land it then got up with a smirk.

Oh gawd, he was creeping so hard. As the finished the song and wrapped up and they mostly collapsed on the floor out of breath, Jinyoung slowly tried to creep away but the step back he took was on a creaky board and the door he tried to pull backwards also moaned from the slow motion causing everyone’s attention to be drawn to him.

‘Screw life, Screw everything’ he thought to himself.

“Jinyoung hyung?” Youngjae asked with a smile on his face but he still looked confused. “You can come in if you want.” He said and Jinyoung reluctantly went into the room nervously pushing up his glasses to hide the blush on his face. Mark was staring at him……

“Park Jinyoung?!” Jackson asked and came over to inspect his face. “Wah it really is you! Why are you just watching us like a stalker or something? Or are you spying on us for another team huh?” he questioned him.

“Jinyoung hyung would never”

“Don’t jump to conclusions Jackson”

Both Mark and Youngjae said at the same time.

“Do you know Jinyoung hyung Mark hyung?” Youngjae asked extremely shocked.

“No, it’s just—I mean…like….uh….we shouldn’t judge that easily” he said stuttering and when Jinyoung looked at him he looked away. Was THE Tuan Mark blushing?....and because of him??

Jaebum sat up from his place on the floor to stare at him. “Care to introduce your friend Youngjae?”

“Ah- sorry guys, This is-“

“My name’s Park Jinyoung. Sorry for intruding on your practice I was just walking by and couldn’t help but be curious about what you guys were doing.” He said quickly interrupting Youngjae who pouted.

“Wah so honest,” Jackson cooed over him and pinched his cheek which he immediately slapped away. “And feisty…” he added with a smirk.

“But Jinyoung hyung why did you stay all that time?” Youngjae asked him.

“That was a very good question Youngjae.’ Jinyoung thought mentally face palming.

“I was just looking at your choreography. If you guys are planning on entering the competition with that, be prepared to lose.” Jinyoung said, savage as usual.

The tall baby that he didn’t know said “I choreographed the dance….Do you think you could do better?” he asked challenging him.

“Yah, I’m your hyung. Hyung. Where are your honorifics?” he asked causing the tall baby to flush with embarrassment. “And to answer your question, it’s not that I can do better but I can fix it to make it look better but that would take time, which I don’t have, meaning I have no reason to even mention that.”

“But hyung didn’t you use to choreograph at your old school and perform there? Why can’t you help us? We really wanna win this competition.” Youngjae asked pleadingly and Jinyoung glanced at Mark who had an amused expression on.

“Eung, we really wanna win, we can take all the help we can get.” The baby baby one he didn’t know said and he couldn’t help but smile from the cuteness of the younger and his accented Korean.

“Woah, who knew nerdy little Park Jinyoung had such a pretty smile.” Jackson cooed again over him causing Jinyoung’s smile to immediately fade and he coughed to cover up his embarrassment while the others laughed along.

Mark then broke the laughter by walking up to Jinyoung and resting his hand on Jinyoung’s shoulder. “I’d love to get the chance to work with you Jinyoung-ah.” He said and flashed the most radiant, most pretty, most everything smile Jinyoung had ever seen and he felt his stomach drop at the same time he developed a million cocoons hatching in his stomach. What the hell was this feeling even?

He could feel himself turn red….he couldn’t say no to Mark in any way possible.

That was how he got himself caught up with the group of pretty boy troublemakers who sung about girls loving them. He only had a month and a half to fix their choreography and somewhere along the time of being with them every day after school Jinyoung came to open up to them almost as much as he did with his old friends in Busan. Much to his dismay, he also came to be popular alongside his new friends in his school. Despite that, he became happier and even started to look forward to the sessions because he got to be with his new friends but mostly, he would get to see Mark.

Upon that first meeting and till later, Jinyoung hasn’t been able to avoid the butterflies he felt every time he saw the older. He has been scared of himself lately because he knew that once he started becoming close to people he became very very touchy.

It all started one day when he laughed so hard he leaned on Mark and clung to his arm. Mark who started blushing cleared his throat causing Jinyoung to realize what he was doing and spring off of him.

From there they kept having “accidental” skinship that they both enjoyed.

Mark also hadn’t been able to miss the way Jinyoung stared at him when he did his acrobatics and that made him even more confident when doing them so much so he started flipping higher and better.

Having Jinyoung around them made their group tons better. The dance seemed much more together, the vocals and rappers were able to practice with him, and none of them could ever fall behind in their school work since he helped all of them where they needed. They never knew their group was missing one person to make them a perfect friend circle till Jinyoung walked in that one day.

Mark especially loves that Jinyoung joined their group. He loves how honest the younger is, how he easily manages Bambam and Yugyeum and came to care for them as if he was a mom. But Mark came to appreciate other features of Jinyoung. Like his happy smile that he flashes when he’s extremely embarrassed or when he’s proud of one of us. His perfect body proportion that he got to admire when they went on a swimming trip together. How y he was when he pushed his wet black hair out of his eyes. How beautiful he was when he was blushing due to something Mark did to him (Which he did on purpose just to see how he would react). How concentrated he gets when dancing and teaching…..he was perfect to him.

Jinyoung also loved being in that group. Even though the two youngest, Bambam and Yugyeum he learned were still in 8^th grade, stressed him out a ton, he loved his group. But mostly he loved Mark, He loves that his Korean is so good even though he’s a foreigner. He loves that he started up the group he was working with and even though he was the eldest he acted childish most of the times which was cute. He also had problems with his Korean class which led Jinyoung to spend more time with him to tutor him and the more he found out about the older was the more he became attracted to him and didn’t know what to do about his feelings.

All 7 grew as friends but Jinyoung and Mark started growing into something more that the others couldn’t quite place so they ignored it.

Finally, they were beyond prepared for the dance competition and the day came.

They were all backstage nervously taping their mikes to their cheeks including Jinyoung since he decided to be the announcer for the group.

“5 MINUTES BEFORE YOU GUYS GO UP” a girl yelled at them into the waiting room only furthering their nervousness.

Jinyoung who was dressed in full black and his hair was styled up came to stand in front of all the members and Mark instinctively went to stand beside him. Jinyoung looked super hot tonight, and he definitely appreciated Bambam for styling their outfits that night.

Jinyoung glanced at Mark next to him and blushed and looked away but he stood closer to him so that their arms were touching. The other members pretended to not notice.

“This is it guys” Jinyoung started and smiled at his fellow members. “You guys practiced long and hard for this day and I have no doubt that you guys will win.” Jinyoung looked at Mark who then looked back at him and smiled understanding he wanted the leader to say something.

“We put so much effort into this, as a team. Everyone contributed so much to this song and performance, so let’s go out there and rock that stage.” He said and put his hand out. Jinyoung put his hand over Mark’s immediately and they shared a smile and the other joined in.

“Got7 JJai” they yelled and pulled their arms away.

“ONE MINUTE GOT7” the girl announced and Jinyoung turned to all of them and hugged each person individually as they left for the stage until Mark.

“Mark hyung” he said as he nuzzled into Mark’s arms enjoying their hug just a bit longer. “Be careful out there.”

Mark then pulled away from the hug and stared Jinyoung in the eyes until he got a little uncomfortable under all the pressure. “What is it Mark hyung?”

“So cute….I won’t ever fall if I have you on my mind. But it’s too late because I think I already fell the first time I saw you” Mark confessed.

Jinyoung couldn’t look at Mark and was blushing way too much because he had nothing to say. Before he could force himself to stutter out a response he felt a pair of lips on his cheek.

“After this, when we win, let’s talk.” Mark whispered in his ear and then left before Jinyoung could say anything.

It took Jinyoung another 30 seconds where he had to force himself to pull himself together so that he could go on stage. As much as his outer demeanor seemed calm, his heart was racing and he could barely think about anyone but Mark but he was able to do his role and introduce his great group of friends and they performed the obnoxious song Jinyoung came to love perfectly without a mistake.

It was the end of the talent competition and all groups were standing on the stage together. Jinyoung was standing next to Mark of course and as the emcees drew out the suspense for who was first place all of Got7 had their eyes closed so no one saw when Jinyoung interlaced his fingers with Mark’s.

“And the winner is…….GOT7!!!!” The emcees yelled which caused all of them to open their eyes in joy and hugged each other yelling and celebrating. Bambam and Yugyeum were so happy they cried.

Mark turned to Jinyoung “We did it!” he yelled and smiled at Jinyoung hugging him then holding both of his hands in his excitement.

Jinyoung then smiled back at him. “Yes you guys did” and closed the gap between them and caught Mark off-guard in a kiss.

The cheers from the crowd turned to ooh’s as Mark responded to his kiss.

Jackson had to pull Mark off of Jinyoung. “You guys can celebrate like that later, let’s go accept our prize.” Causing both of them to flush but they went up to get the trophy and posed for a picture together.

Mark back hugged Jinyoung at the last minute so that picture of them winning had Mark’s smiling face and Jinyoung’s surprised one.

The story of their relationship all started from that one night and it went on for a long time after Mark graduated later that year because he video chatted Jinyoung every night from his new university and came back to visit their old high school when he was on break. They became the ideal couple of the school and on their one year anniversary the other members of GO7 blew up a picture a person in the crowd caught of their first kiss together and gave it to them as a present. Even though that was the first kiss that they shared, it was the kiss on the cheek that Mark gave to Jinyoung that gave him courage to kiss him like that. It was that one simple kiss that started everything but luckily no one caught that kiss on camera.
