Work Text:
It was the 8th Nct 127 fanmeeting and Mark was having a lot of fun. The members had all practiced new dances that they were excited to show czennie. Unfortunately, the staff had informed Mark that there would be a lot of fanservice. Well, more than usual and that's saying a lot for nct 127.
"Mark!"
Mark was brought back to the present when he heard Haechan's high pitched fan service voice.
Mark turned towards the sound.
"Hyuck" He says now noticing Johnny who is standing next to Donghyuck as they walked over.
He fights down a stab of jealously that it was Johnny who Donghyuck chose to accompany him to the event today.
Not letting it show, he dabs Johnny up, practically ignoring Donghyuck who is right next to him.
Johnny discusses the upcoming fan meeting while Donghyuck stands the side unnaturally silent.
They are interrupted when a staff member runs up letting them know that the fan meeting is about to begin.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Donghyuck usually never let's anything get to him, but why does Mark ignoring him hurt so bad? He always throws so many advances towards Mark and is pushed away all the time. He does not let that bother him since Mark probably thinks it's for fanservice. But little things earlier like when Mark ignored him when talking with Johnny hurts so much more.
Donghyuck ultimately decides that if Mark doesn't want his fanservice. He will put all his focus on the other members during this fanmeet.
After about an hour, Donghyuck finds himself spooning Jungwoo on the floor while rolling across the stage. He can feel Jungwoo laughing as the pass czennies filming the whole thing with satisfied smiles on their faces.
A bit later, he finds himself crouched before Doyoung who is blindfolded. He tenses when he feels Doyoung's finger reach up towards his lips. His breath quickens when Doyoung begins thumbing his lip over and over, occasionally slipping a bit inside. Donghyuck can feel Marks gaze burning into him as well as the thousand of czennies in the building. He closes his eyes and for a second, he allows himself to imagine that it is Mark that is sitting before him. Although, he quickly shuts that thought down before it can take root.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mark feels his heart stutter when he sees Donghyuck kneel in front of Doyoung. This is the second time today where Donghyuck has done fanservice with someone other than Mark.
"That should be me" he thinks before asking himself why it matters so much to him.
Mark finds himself unable to tear his gaze away from Doyoungs figure that is brushing over Donghyucks plump lips. He is frozen for a second before the sound of Czennies screams remind him that not only Donghyuck is being watched right now. A normal reaction to this event would be to laugh uncontrollably. So that's what he does while fighting the urge to push Doyoung away and drag Donghyuck backstage. Donghyuck moves to Jaehyun, the next person up, and Mark doesn't think. He starts rushing forward, but is luckily pulled back by Johnny, who is looking quite confused. The rest of the meeting passes in a blur for Mark. He puts everything he has into his performances and trys his best to laugh at his members jokes but he can't bring himself to truly enjoy it. Everytime he let's himself think he remembers Donghyuck kneeling in front of Doyoung. His poor mood doesn't fade until Johnny grabs his arm when hes aggressively typing on his phone.
"What was that out there?" Johnny demanded with concern hidden beneath the aggressive tone.
Mark tries to brush him off "Nothing!" .
He turns to leave but Johnny doesn't let up the grip on his arm.
"I've known you long enough where i can tell when you're lying Mark." He says
"I know you were jealous of Hyuck."
Mark feels his heart stop for second, then lets himself say what his been thinking for this whole concert.
"I love him Johnny." He all but yells.
"I've loved him for so long but I never even noticed. I can't stand when he does fanservice with the other members. I spent the last three hours wishing it was me that he wanted but apparently I was wrong." He is so distracted by his confession that he doesn't hear the door behind him open.
"I love Hyuck so much I can't stand being in the same room as him and not being the one he wants. I wished it was me who was rolling on the floor, who had my hand in his mouth"
At that last word he hears a waterbottle fall to the ground behind him. He freezes, slowly turning towards the noise to see all of Nct 127 and surprisingly Taeyong back from the navy, all standing their in various degrees of shock.
In the center with a bottle at his feet, is Donghyuck.
"Umm we were just coming in to tell you guys we were filming a dance challenge Tiktok" Donghyuck murmurs quietly, immediately turning and sprinting out of the room with red tinted cheeks.
Someone whistles in the background, probably Jaehyun or Johnny. Mark is rooted to the spot, ears tinged out of embarrassment.
"Go after him!" Doyoung says.
Mark nods and runs after his man.
Donghyuck hadn't gone far, Mark finds in the hallway just around the corner. They both freeze when their eyes tenitively meet.
"Hyuck" Mark says, voice breaking at the end.
"Doyoungs fingers tasted like cream cheese bread" He blurts out while briefly shuddering.
He collects himself and takes a step towards Mark. Then another until they are so close that their breaths mix. Donghyuck tucks a loose strand of Marks fluffy hair behind his ear. Mark is frozen heart beating rapidly.
"Hyuck?" He whispers.
Donghyuck smiles. "I wanted it to be you too but you ignored me earlier when I showed up. I thought you were finally tired of me."
"Never." Mark replies. "I've always wanted you." His eyes flick down to Donghyuck's lips before snapping back up to his eyes.
Donghyuck smiles and seals the gap between them. Mark stills for a moment then sinks into the kiss. Mark sucks on Donghyucks bottom lip and gets a breathy whine in response. After exploring each other's mouths for a few minutes. They hear a tentative cough from down the hallway.
"Sorry to interupt guys" Taeyong says apologetically.
"But we have to finish this dance challenge and get going."
Donghyuck and Mark spring apart blushing up to their ears.
Taeyong starts walking away and they hurry to catch up, casting sideway glances at each other, smiling the whole way.
