Chapte 10

Part of Me

When the two came out laughing Jackson could only focus on them holding hands and being close to each other, “That was so much fun!” Mark giggled, “Let’s go on another one Jaebum”

Jackson frowned at their interactions but quickly masked it, “How about we go on a ride that all four of us can get on?” He suggested

“Yeah another roller coaster” Jaebum smirked

Jackson gave the man a quick glare, he knew he couldn’t handle roller coasters and yet he kept suggesting them, “Can we?” Mark asked with an adorable smile, and how can Jackson deny the guy?

“Um why don’t you guys go ahead, Jinyoung and I will catch up” Jackson sighed

Mark tilted his head, “Are you sure, shouldn’t we all go together?”

“It’s fine Mark-hyung, they’ll catch up” Jaebum smiled pulling Mark away towards another roller coaster

“Can you believe him?” Jackson growled

“I know this is the first time I’ver ever seen Jaebum-hyung so into a guy before” Jinyoung smirked

Jackson gave him a dark glare, “You know what I mean Jinyoung” he growled

Jinyoung rolled his eyes and walk through the crowds with Jackson by his side, “So I’m guessing you like Mark-hyung too?”

Jackson rolled his eyes, “Don’t act like you didn’t realize; I know last night, you purposely did all those things to Mark-hyung to provoke Jaebum-hyung and I”

Jinyoung smirked, “Seems like I was caught”

“Jinyoungie you should be helping me get Mark-hyung together not push him with that jerk” Jackson scoffed

Jinyoung turned and looked at Jackson, “Did something happen between you two?”

Jackson sighed, “Last night, we had a big/quiet argument over Mark-hyung. I told him that I like him and that he should stay out of my way but that jerk said I had no right to claim Mark-hyung. He even said that I’m the worst choice for Mark-hyung. Can you believe that?” he scoffed

“Well he’s kinda right” Jinyoung began and Jackson frowned at him, “First of all, Mark-hyung is a person, not some toy and it’s up to him if he wants to go out anyone at all. Second of all, you’re not the worst choice but you not the best either”

Jackson turned to give him an offended look, “How can you say that?”

“Because Jackson-hyung you don’t stay long in relationships, you fall for someone, date them, fool around with them and then get bored of them after a few weeks and end it. By the end of the week you’ve already found someone else.” Jinyoung sighed, “Do you know how many of your exes have come to the apartment looking for you, half drunk or looking like they wanna kill someone?” 

Jackson grimaced as the memories of begging his roommates to make them go away flooded his mind, “Okay but this is different, Jinyoungie” Jackson whined

“I’m sorry Jackson-hyung but I doubt it and I don’t think worth it especially since Mark-hyung is our roommate and also you heard his story last night. The guy probably hasn’t ever been in a relationship before and I don’t think he want his first one to last a few weeks.” Jinyoung argued back hoping to get through the man.

“So what you rather him be with Jaebum-hyung?” he frowned

“I don’t know I mean Jaebum-hyung isn’t the greatest in relationship either because of his personality but this is the first time I’ve ever seen him so into the other person, not to mention he was holding Mark-hyung hand. He never holds his dates hands.” Jinyoung revealed grinning

“This is not a date!” Jackson groaned

“Of course not” Jinyoung smiled, “This is an outing for Mark-hyung”

“So what should I do?” Jackson pouted

“Well first get to know Mark-hyung as a friend, talk to him, get to know him better and if you’re still interested in him and see him more as friend then do whatever it is you wanna do.” Jinyoung suggested

Jackson nodded, “Alright but what about Jaebum-hyung?” He asked with the way things were going he might not even get a chance to be with Mark.

“Jaebum-hyung more cautious then you, he won’t immediately jump into a relationship especially knowing Mark-hyung situation. It will be a while before Jaebum-hyung asks him out” Jinyoung answered however he can’t help but think that wrong; with how close those two were and holding hands with each other, Jaebum might ask Mark out very soon.

~~~~~
An hour and a half later, Jaebum and Mark met Jinyoung and Jackson at the food court; the latter was the first to find a spot to sit and to text the location to Jaebum. It wasn’t long before the two arrived with food already in their hands and sat down across from Jackson and Jinyoung. 

Jackson couldn’t help but internally pout; because of Jaebum he couldn’t even hang out with Mark. After the first 30 minutes of walking around with Jinyoung it was obvious Jaebum and Mark might not show up again till later so Jinyoung dragged Jackson on other rides to try and take his mind off of it. 

As they were sitting and eating, Mark was excitedly telling of all the rides he and Jaebum went on. The three couldn’t help but smile since Mark was acting like an adorable child. Once they finished they stopped at a few stores to get a couple of souvenirs for their roommates and Mark’s family before leaving Lotte World to take a train to Hongdae.

“Yah it will take two hours to get there with a train” Jackson groaned complaining 

“Well we don’t have any another option, it’s not like we can drive there.” Jinyoung frowned. Jaebum was about to suggest taking a taxi but they needed to save their money since they will gonna spend more later.

“Maybe Jung-hwan can drive you around, Markie?” Sehun suggested standing right behind Mark along with Chen.

Jinyoung, Jaebum and Jackson jumped never noticing the man, “Where did you guys come from?” Jackson panted clutching his racing heart however his question was ignored.

“Who’s Jung-hwan?” Jaebum asked

Mark looked at Chen and Sehun, he wasn’t sure if he should also reveal him to another one of his guards however Chen answered for him, “Oh he’s Markie driver”

The three humans looked at Mark, “You have a driver?!” Jackson yelled, “And we were gonna take a train to go everywhere” he groaned

“Mark-hyung why didn’t you mention this before?” Jinyoung asked curiously 

“Well one I forgot and also I never took a train before, I’m sorry” Mark said sadly looking guilty; thinking about now it seems taking a car would be much better than the train but it was something he wanted to experience.

The three nodded in understanding, although it was strange that Mark would forget he had a driver but they at least understood Mark wanting to be on train, “It’s okay” Jaebum said patting Mark back feeling his hand warm again, Mark looked up and smiled at him.

Chen had already called Jung-hwan and it didn’t take long for him to arrive since he was already around waiting for the call. The black minivan came around, Jinyoung and Jackson crawled in the back while Jaebum and Mark sat in the center row and Sehun sat in the front seat. Chen closed the doors and walked away.

“Um where is he going?” Jaebum asked

“Oh don’t worry we’ll see him later” Sehun answered and the other had to take that reply. Mark however knew Chen was just gonna run and meet them in Hongdae. Chen was never a fan of places with limited space and the airplane ride made it even worse for him.

“So are you guys friends with Prince Mark?” Jung-hwan asked once he pulled away from the curb.

Mark and Sehun eyes widened and they saw Jung-hwan panic as well when he realized he called Mark by his title in front of the humans, “Prince Mark?” Jinyoung asked looking at Jackson and Jaebum turned to give Mark a look.

“Oh that’s just a little nickname we guards give him” Sehun laugh trying to brush it off and Jung-hwan laughed with him.

“Oh” Jinyoung said looking a little relieved, “Although I gotta say it would make more sense if you were really a prince” he chuckled

Jaebum smiled as well, “Yeah the bodyguards, the driver, your mysterious past, it’s the only logical answer”

“Ah yeah logical” Mark laughed but if anything, the answer was far from logical. 

“But yeah we’re friends with Mark-hyung” Jackson grinned patting Mark shoulders from the back, “You know I thought a limo was gonna pull up when we heard you had a driver” he joked

“No I would be too embarrassed to be driven around in a limo” Mark blushed and Jaebum couldn’t help but smile and stare at him, Mark turned noticing Jaebum stare and smiled at making Jaebum cheeks turn pink. Jung-hwan and Sehun from the front notice the interaction between the two and gave each other side looks. 

Throughout the car ride, Mark and Jaebum were either holding each other hands or feeling warm by the other’s touch. It was strange to Mark as to why he was feeling such attraction to the human but he really liked the feeling. It wasn’t long before they reached Hongdae and before Jaebum could take Mark’s hand, Jackson dragged Mark inside the Trick Eye Museum. Jaebum growled before immediately running after Jackson to get Mark back while Jinyoung looked like an exasperated parent. 

Sehun climbed out the ran and turned to look at Jung-hwan, “You notice that too right?” Sehun asked

Jung-hwan nodded, “Do you think that human is the one?” He asked and Sehun shrugged,“Do you think Hyun-woo knows?”

“Most likely not, he’s only here during the night and by then there’s probably nothing to observe.” Sehun sighed. “Once the night approaches I will tell him however let’s keep this between us and observe them and their behaviors” Sehun commanded

Jung-hwan nodded, “Of course who knows the dangers that will fall on them if this should ever get out”

~~~~~~~~~~~~

For the rest of the day Jackson and Jaebum played a subtle game of tug-o-war with Mark without him realizing it. To him the two was just pulling him around to show him different things. After the museum, they lead him out to the streets of Hongdae, where Mark did more shopping. Occasionally he would stop to take pictures and an internally promise to send them to his parents once he got back to the apartment. 

Night quickly fell on them and their last stop was at N Seoul Tower, the four had to take a cable car to reach the tower since it was built on Namsan Mountain. Even from the inside the cable car Mark was in awe of the beautiful lights that shined from the tower and he took a couple of quick photos of it. 

Although the Tower had many shops and attractions inside, the one place Mark was interested in was going to observation deck of the tower. Once they reached observatory Mark quietly gasp, Seoul in the night time was breathless. The three smiled at Marks’ reaction since they had similars one’s when they first came to the tower to look over Seoul. There just were no words for it.

Mark could only stare at the sight in front of him, “Beautiful no?” Jaebum asked from beside him. Jaebum had pushed Jackson into another elevator once they noticed Mark looking at the scene alone. The man was now somewhere on the lower floors slowly making his way back up.

“It’s gorgeous” Mark gasped “This is even better than looking through a computer screen”

“You’ve looked up pictures of Seoul Tower?” Jaebum asked surprised

“Not intentionally but I once typed the best sights in the world and this was one of them. The computer didn’t do this any justice” Mark smiled

“Computers rarely do” Jaebum replied

Mark turned and took Jaebum, “Thank you for bringing me here” he said looking into his eyes
Even though it was Jinyoung who suggested it, Jaebum felt so happy from the statement, “You’re welcome” he smiled and once again he swore he saw Mark’s eyes flash blue.

Mark looked quickly down at Jaebum lips before looking back at his eyes and Jaebum heart raced, he then placed his hand on Marks cheek, caressing it gently. Mark felt his heart jump and made his blood warm up but yet he couldn’t help but feel like this scene was somewhat familiar to him. Before anything could happen they heard a someone clear their throat. The two turned their heads and looked at a smirking Jinyoung and a pissed off Jackson.

The two blushed and Jaebum pulled his hand away. Mark internally whimpered, he liked the feeling of the man’s hands on him, it made him feel safe. After looking at the sights for another couple of minutes, Jinyoung suggested they go home and Jackson happily agreed. Jung-hwan was waiting for them and Sehun popped back in their presence, scaring Jackson again. 

They arrived back at the dorm and thanked Jung-hwan for driving them before going inside. Sehun quickly raced to the roof of the dorm where he knew Hyun-woo was.

“How was the trip?” He asked

“Well Markie seemed to enjoy himself, so quite well” Sehun answered putting his hands in his pockets

“What did I say at calling him so informally” Hyun-woo growled

Sehun shrugged since the two had have many conversations about this for years, “However in the car I noticed Markie and the human getting really close but it looked very different. Mark and the human had met yesterday but they were already close with skinship and also today at the tower I saw Mark eyes flash blue as the human touched his cheek.” 

Hyun-woo frowned, “Are you saying what I think you’re saying?”

“I’m not entirely sure yet it seems so” Sehun sighed

Hyun-woo huffed, “This is quite unexpected. Who else saw this?”

“Just me and Jung-hwan however I’m not sure if the others aren’t suspicious with two’s behavior.” Sehun replied

“Well we have to silence this now till I learn more.” Hyun-woo said

“I agree but we should be fine, no one knows of his presence” Sehun said, as long as Mark doesn’t use his full power he should be okay and live his college days peacefully.

“Yes but if he is discovered and that human turns out to be the one, there will trouble” Hyun-woo said

Sehun nodded, “Alright I will watch their behaviors as well” he said.

Hyun-woo sighed but then a scent filled the air, “Do you smell that?” 

“Yeah blood” Hyun-woo growled letting his eyes glow red.

“This is why I didn’t want the prince to be here, I knew this would happen” Hyung-woo frowned

“What?” Sehun wondered

“Because there’s so many supernatural, I knew there would probably be many of them that would be attacking humans or other supernaturals” Hyun-woo explained

“Seriously?” Sehun growled, “Shouldn’t the Vampire Queen do something?”

“She won’t because she wanted this to happen, she wants vampires to rule the world with humans and, weaker supernaturals as she calls them, as our food.” Hyun-woo seethed

“Now I understand why she’s not part of the council” Sehun sighed

“She has many crazy ideas and until the time is right, we can’t have Prince Mark be revealed yet. She will kill him in order to keep her throne.” Hyun-woo added

“The throne doesn’t even belong to her, she killed for it.” Sehun growled

“So you heard the story as well” Hyun-woo sighed and Sehun nodded, “One day Prince Mark will claim it and save this country but not now, he’s young and he hasn’t yet unlocked his full powers.” Hyun-woo added

“Does he knows?” Sehun asked and Hyun-woo knew he was talking about Mark.

“Well I never told him but I wouldn’t be surprised if he did.” Hyun-woo shrugged, “Let’s just try to keep this campus safe from other vampires, if they come here to strike here it might bring trouble for Prince Mark”
