~
I am definitely going to the housing office tomorrow and filing a complaint. You think to yourself as you carry your backpack and some personal necessities for the night out into the lounge. Your roommate had kicked you out of your shared dorm room for the third time this week and it is only Wednesday. Just because she wants to fuck her boyfriend does not mean that I should have to leave the room I pay for. Does her boyfriend not have a room of his own?
You throw your bag on the table in the lounge of your dorm, surprisingly no one is in there. If only I could find a cheap apartment then I could move out of this hellhole. You wander over to the bulletin board, staring blankly at the random flyers pinned to the surface. You are about to go make a bed on the couch when a plain white flyer with bold letters stands out to you:
ROOMMATE NEEDED
PREFERABLY ANOTHER COLLEGE STUDENT
WILLING TO NEGOTIATE RENT SPLITTING,
NOT JUST 50/50 
IF INTERESTED PLEASE CALL:
MARK TUAN @ XXX-XXX-XXXX
You pull the flyer off the board, Mark Tuan…wasn't he in my Philosophy of Religion course last semester? You shrug and pull out your phone, dialing the number.
~ AT THE SAME TIME, IN AN APARTMENT COMPLEX NEAR CAMPUS~
"Mark, I hate to tell you but these flyers suck." Phoenix said as he looked at the flyers on the coffee table. "Shut up, Phoenix. I was too lazy to try harder on them, I mean it's not like I wanted to move…again." Phoenix laughs and starts to unpack the box in front of him. "At least this place was able to move you in quickly. Otherwise, you would have been stuck at your old place." Mark hums and heads towards the door, "I'm going to grab the last few boxes. If my phone rings answer it and be cool, it might be someone answering the flyers I put up in the dorms." Mark walks out the door, but as it closes Phoenix yells, "No one will answer this garbage!"
Phoenix continues to unpack the boxes around him when Mark's phone rings. He picks it up and answers in his best secretary voice, "Mark Tuan's phone, this is Phoenix. How may I help you?"
~Back to Y/N~
Your eyes widen in shock, "Phoenix? What the hell?"
"Y/N? Is that you? What are you calling Mark for?"
"I saw his flyer about needing a roommate and I have had enough of R/N, figured it wouldn't hurt to talk about it."
"Dude, I literally just told him no one would answer his dumb flyer. Of course one of my best friends would just to spite me." Phoenix says exasperatedly.
"Of course, Phoenix. I live to make you look dumb. So is Mark there or what?"
"He's getting more boxes from the moving truck. How about I send you the address and you head over here, it'll be better than just sitting in the dorm lounge all night. Mark promised to buy me pizza for helping him move." Phoenix said excitedly into the phone and you couldn't help but laugh.
"Sure, send me the address and I'll head your way."
"Awesome, see you in a bit. BYYYYEEEE!" You pull the phone away from your ear as he screams into the phone. You shake your head and start to gather your stuff, your phone chimes and you see the Phoenix sent the address from Mark's phone. You grab your stuff and head out of the dorm to what hopefully will be your new place.
~BACK AT MARK'S APARTMENT~
"BYYYYEEE!" Mark walks back into the apartment to see Phoenix yelling into his phone.
"Who was that?" Phoenix looks over and holds up one finger to signal that he needed a minute. He types something into Mark's phone then turns to him with a smile.
"That, my dear friend, was the first person interested in being your roommate." Mark's eyes go wide and Phoenix laughs. "Chill, dude. I know her, we're best friends. She is sick of her roommate at the dorm always kicking her out so they can fuck their boyfriend. She saw your flyer and is currently on her way here." Mark nods before looking at Phoenix in panic.
"Dude, what the fuck? This place is a mess. How could you invite someone over when it looks like this?" Phoenix looks around the room, it's cluttered but not messy.
"You literally moved in today, there is no way she'll be upset since you just moved in." Mark groans and slumps onto the makeshift couch, which is just a broken futon pushed against a wall.
"Can we at least try to make it look better before…what's her name?" Phoenix looks up and smiles, "Y/N Y/L/N." Mark nods, the name sounding familiar to him, "Right, Y/N. Let's clean up some before Y/N gets here." Phoenix nods and they start rushing to unpack and break down as many boxes as possible. They are making good progress when they hear a knock at the door. Phoenix jumps up and looks through the peephole. He smiles back at Mark and opens the door wide.
~Y/N's/Narrator P.O.V.~
"Y/N!!!" The door opens to reveal Phoenix and he instantly pulls you in for a hug. You scrunch up your nose as his sweaty body touches you.
"Ew. Dude, you stink." You shove him away and you hear a laugh from inside the apartment, looking up you see Mark Tuan laughing cutely from amongst a pile of boxes. Damn, I forgot how cute he was. Mark makes his way over to you and he use the edge of his shirt to wipe sweat off his face, giving you a nice view of what's underneath that shirt. OMG he is not just cute but sexy! Kill me now.
Once Mark reaches you, he holds out his hand, "Hey, I'm Mark, you're Y/N, right? Did we have a class together last semester? You look familiar." You take his hand and shake it while nodding, "Yeah, I think it was Philosophy of Religion with Dr. Maloney, right?" Mark nods, "That's right! He was insane."
Phoenix is just staring at the two of you, seeing as your hands are still clasped together. He fakes a cough, which causes you and Mark to jump a little. "Anyway, Mark, you said that you'd pay me in pizza so get to ordering. Be sure to get enough for Y/N!" He calls as he makes his way into the apartment. You and Mark just stare at each other, then you both chuckle.
"Come on in. I'll order the pizza then we can talk about you possibly moving in here." Mark steps aside to let you and closes the door. You walk into the apartment, only to be stopped by a mess of boxes.
"You just moved in?" You turn to Mark and he nods. "Yeah, sorry about the mess, I kinda had to move in a hurry." Mark says as he scratches the back of his neck. You nod and start to make your way to the living room.
You walk into the living room to see Phoenix stretched out on the futon. You walk over and kick his feet to make him move over. He groans but moves his legs anyway, giving you enough room to sit down. Mark walks over with his phone in hand.
"Okay, what kind of pizza do we want?" He looks up at you and Phoenix. "Anything is fine with me, but if we want to just be simple I would say cheese or pepperoni." Phoenix tells him and you nod in agreement. Mark gives you a thumbs up and goes back to typing on his phone. After a few minutes, he puts his phone away.
"Alright, pizza should be here in about 30 minutes. While we wait, let's get to know each other." Mark says as he sits on a the floor. "All I know about you, Y/N, is that you are a college student who has a roommate who likes to kick you out of your shared room so she can fuck her boyfriend and that you are somehow friends with this weirdo." Mark points at Phoenix who lets out an indigent 'hey' at the term. You and Mark laugh as Phoenix glares at the both of you.
"Well I am Y/N and I met Phoenix when we were like 13. Him and his brothers had just transferred to my school. I was nice and invited them to sit with me and my friends at lunch, I've been stuck with them ever since." Phoenix lets out another shout as you recount how your friendship began. You laugh and Mark nods.
"I can see that. They are very clingy and needy." You and Mark share a small smile as Phoenix pouts in the corner. "They are good friends though, I mean Phoenix helped me move." You nod, thinking about all the times the guys have helped you.
"Why did you move? Were you just tired of your old place or were you like evicted or something?" You ask out of pure curiosity. Mark looks at Phoenix and you can tell they are having a silent conversation.
"Something like that…" Mark begins. "Dude, just tell Y/N the truth. If she is going to live here then she needs to know." You stare at Phoenix wide-eyed after his sudden outburst. Mark sighs and nods.
"I had to move because a girl I met at a party and hung out with a few times is stalking me and she keeps breaking into my place." Mark tells you without looking up. What the heck? Why doesn't he get like a restraining order or something?
"So, you are being stalked by your ex?" Mark looks up at you and shakes his head. "No! No no no no no! We never dated or even hung out alone, she was a friend of a couple friends so we had the same friend group." You nod.
"So somehow she got this idea that you guys were more than just acquaintances?" Mark nods and takes a deep breath. "I barely even spoke to her. I have no idea why she would think we were more than that." You just shake your head at the whole story.
"Did you ever think it get a restraining order against her or something? I mean, she is obviously crazy." Mark nods and pulls his backpack over to him. "Yeah, this time around I did. She should have been served the order today." You nod and then it struck you, did he say this time? "Mark, how many times have you had to move because of her?" 
Mark shyly looks at the floor and scratches the back of his head. "Uh, this is the third time in six months. I thought she would get the hint after all of our mutual friends stopped hanging out with her and I kept moving, but she hasn't so I was forced to do it." Mark pulls out the papers and hands them to you. You skim through them, mainly catching her name, Rina, before handing the papers back to Mark. "You are too nice of a person. I would have filed those a while ago." Mark shrugs and puts the papers away. 
"You're right, but I didn't want this to hurt her in the future if it was just a crush." "Mark, just a crush is flirting and doodling their name on your notebook, not stalking them and breaking into their home." You berate him and Mark laughs, "Yeah, I guess you're right."
Mark goes to say something else when there is a knock at the door. Mark gets up and answers the door, soon returning with the pizzas, "I got one cheese and one pepperoni. So let's eat up." 
After eating, you help unpack the last of the boxes and get the apartment looking more liveable. You finish setting up the coffee table and you look around the living room, Mark and Phoenix are currently trying to set up the t.v. and gaming system. "Y/N, can you come here for a second?" Mark asks from underneath the entertainment center. "Sure." You walk over and see that he is trying to get a wire hooked into the t.v. but can't reach. "Can you take this cord and plug it into the port?" You hum in agreement and take the cord, plugging it into the port. All at once the t.v. emits this ear piercing sound that has you all panicking, Mark even jumped and hit his head on the entertainment center. Phoenix gets the sound to stop and you all sit back and admire your work.
"So, Y/N, do you think you can handle living with Mark?" Phoenix asks. You hum quietly and then nod. "Yeah, he's not so bad and I just really want out of that dorm." Mark looks at you with wide eyes. "Wait, seriously? Even after learning about Rina?" You nod and laugh. "I mean you have the restraining order and I'm not scared of some crazy chick, I grew up with Phoenix and his brothers so I think I'll be okay." Mark smiles and pulls you into a hug. You hesitantly hug him back. "Thank you, Y/N! I promise I won't let her anywhere near you." You just laugh and agree. 
Phoenix leaves, but you stayed with Mark seeing as you will already be living together. "Okay, so you can sleep in my bed and I'll sleep on the 'couch'." Mark says making air quotes around couch. You immediately shake your head in protest. "No no no. I am not taking your bed." Mark shakes his head and laughs, "Well I am not letting you sleep on this broken futon that I call a couch. I bet you have class tomorrow and I don't want your back to hurt so just use my bed." You shake your head again, "I bet you have class tomorrow too, so what's the difference between my back hurting and yours?" Mark looks at you for a second before sighing, "Fine, I guess we could just share my bed for the night." You hesitate but nod anyway. Mark notices your hesitation and immediately starts to panic. "Nothing will happen! We can like lay pillows or something in between us so we don't touch!" You laugh and Mark stops talking, his face is now beet red. 
"Well, we are probably going to have to work something out because I just realized that I don't have a bed to bring here. I'll have to call my parents to see if they can loan me some money to buy at least a mattress." You tell him and he just sighs while letting out a small chuckle. "I have an extra bed in storage, I used to live with a friend but when they moved out they just left the bed. You could use that if you wanted and it would save you some money. I promise it's clean, I had both beds professionally cleaned and then they wrapped up the extra and put it in storage." You are shocked by Mark's words but nod nonetheless. "That sounds great!" Mark smiles and nods, "I can call some of my friends and we can get the bed moved sometime tomorrow or the next day. I can even see if some of them can help you move out of your dorm." You nod and then realize you never worked out the sleeping arrangement for the night.
"So, are we sharing your bed tonight and possibly tomorrow night?" Mark nods and makes his way down the hall. "I think I have some sweats and a hoodie you could wear tomorrow, that way you can just shower here and head to class." You blush at his words. Am I really going to wear some guys clothes to class?! Mark hands you a couple pairs of pants and a hoodie, "You should try them on now, so we can avoid the hassle in the morning." You nod and head into the bathroom. You quickly try on the clothes, realizing that they are pleasantly big and they smell like Mark. Why does he smell so good? What are people going to think if they realize that I am wearing some guys clothes that are obviously too big for me? Mark knocking on the bathroom door breaks you out of your thoughts, "Are you okay in there? Do the clothes not fit?" You quickly pull your shirt over your head and open the door. "I'm fine just spaced out, I'm getting tired. The clothes fit fine. Thank you again, Mark." Mark just smiles and nods, "No problem. Let's go to bed it is pretty late." You both make your way to the bed and Mark starts making a barrier using extra pillows and blankets. You both climb into bed and you drift off to sleep, surrounded by Mark's scent.
You wake up to your alarm going off, as you reach to turn it off you are stopped by an arm around your waist. You look and see that Mark's makeshift barrier has been demolished and you are both tangled together. You blush and try to remove yourself from Mark's hold. In the midst of your struggling Mark wakes up, "Morning…...oh shit! My bad!" Mark pulls away from you like you had burned him and starts to apologize. You cannot control your laughter at this point and soon you have tears running down your face. Mark stops panicking and watches as you lay on your back laughing. 
~Mark's P.O.V.~
I wake up to someone moving next to me. "Morning." I say sluggishly, only then did I realize that I literally have my legs tangled with Y/N's and my arm is around her waist. "Oh shit! My bad!" I say as I let go of her. I start to throw out apologies, I feel really bad. I hope I didn't make her uncomfortable. My thoughts and apologies are interrupted by Y/N's laughter. She is laughing so hard that there are tears streaming down her face. She is laying on her back and laughing so hard, and yet, I cannot help but think how gorgeous she looks. Woah, stop that Mark! You just met her yesterday, well officially anyway. She is going to be your roommate, you cannot mess this up by getting feelings for her.
"Alright, calm down. You and I both need showers, we have class soon." As I finish talking, Y/N jumps out of bed and runs into the bathroom. I shake my head and go to the kitchen to start some coffee and breakfast.
Y/N comes out of the bathroom 15 minutes later looking fresh and clean. I hand her a plate of food and a mug, "There is hot water in the boiler and I have coffee and tea." Y/N nods and fixes her drink. We eat in silence and then I take my shower.
After showering, Y/N and I walk to campus together. "Text me your schedule and I'll pick you up from your last class." Y/N nods and starts typing on their phone. "I'm going to head over to housing since I don't have any classes until later. Hopefully they don't fight me on moving out of the dorm, I mean I have already paid for housing this semester." Y/N says, finishing typing and I feel my phone go off. I nod and pull out my phone, noting that they only have two classes today and their last class is in the same building as mine, but it lets out 25 minutes after mine.
"Cool, our last classes are in the same building and they end around the same time, I'll pick you up out front. Text me if housing gives you any grief and I'll see if there is anything I can do to help. Maybe I can get some of my friends to help move your stuff tonight, I think most of them are free." Y/N smiles and nods, "Okay, but don't force them to help if they don't want or have time to." I laugh and nod, waving my hand dismissively as I head towards my class. "I'll see you later!" I call over my shoulder and Y/N just laughs.
~Y/N's P.O.V.~
I make my way over to campus housing and see that there is no one at the front desk. I stand there for a minute without seeing anyone, so I head down the hallway trying to find anyone who can help me. I come to an open door and see a man typing on his computer, looking at the nameplate next to the door I see that his name is Jinyoung Park, the housing director. I gently knock on his door, "Excuse me." He quickly turns around and gives me a warm smile.
"Hi, what's up?" He gestures for me to have a seat and I quietly enter his office. "My name is Y/N Y/L/N and I want to request to be moved from the dorms. I found an apartment with a friend off campus." Mr. Park nods and pulls up my dorm information on the computer.
"You live with R/N? Is there any kind of problem or are you just sick of dorm life?" I laugh and nod, "A bit of both actually. R/N keeps kicking me out of the dorm to sleep with her boyfriend and I am tired of crashing in the lounge or someone else's room." Mr. Park nods and starts to type on his computer.
"I'm going to contact your resident direct and resident advisor to let them know what has been taking place. You can move out whenever you're ready, all I need for you to do is sign these documents and return your keys once you finish moving out." I look at Mr. Park in shock. That was surprisingly easy. I sign the papers he gives me and he stands up to walk me out. 
When we reach the front he looks around for the secretary only to find her missing. He sighs and shakes his head, "No wonder you just wandered into my office there is no one here to help!" I laugh and he holds out his hand for me to shake, I take his hand and smile, "Thank you so much for your help Mr. Park." He just smiles, "Call me Jinyoung." I nod and give him one last smile before leaving.
~Time Skip~
I walk out of my last class to find Mark playing on his phone while girls are gawking at him. Seriously girls? You're just going to stand there and stare like that? I walk over and nudge Mark's foot, he looks up at me and smiles while standing up. "Hey, how was class?" He asks as he takes my backpack from my shoulder, I start to protest but he just takes off running in the direction of the dorms. "Mark! Get back here with my stuff!" I start to chase after him and out of the corner of my eye I see the girls standing there wide-eyed with their mouths hanging open. 
Mark slows down and I am able to catch up to him, but he still refuses to give me my backpack. We reach the dorm and Mark is forced to give me my bag so I can retrieve my keys. We are making our way to my room, when we are stopped by one of my neighbors, "I wouldn't go in there. R/N and her boyfriend just got here." I shrug, "Too bad, I need to get my stuff so I can move out." They look at me in shock, "You're moving out?! Where are you going to live?" I gesture towards Mark and they look him up and down. "When did you get a boyfriend and a hot one at that?" I am about to correct them, but Mark speaks before me. "We've been dating for a while now, I figured since R/N keeps kicking her out and she usually end up at my place anyway, why not just move in." My neighbor nods and smiles, "Well good for you, Y/N. Now you better hurry before things get too sexual in your room." I nod and rush down the hall. I reach my door and bang on it loudly a few times. R/N opens the door obviously disheveled, "Uh, Y/N what are you doing here?" I just stare at them like 'wtf?', "I live here remember?" I say as I shove passed her into the room. She grabs my arm and pulls me back, "My boyfriend is here, so can you like leave?" I pull my arm from her grasp and shake my head. "Nope. I am allowed to be in my dorm room whenever I want. If you don't like it then leave." R/N glares at me and then her boyfriend decides to throw in his opinion, "We always come here once classes are over, why is it such a problem today?" I turn and look at him, "It has always been a problem. Today just happens to be the day I would like to be in my own room." I walk over to my bed and start to pull out my suitcase and storage boxes. 
"What are you doing, Y/N?" R/N curiously asks and I just stare at her for a second before answering. "I'm getting my stuff out so I can pack." I start putting the things that I can reach into one of the boxes. "You're moving out?" I just nod and continue packing. "Where are you going to live?" I point to Mark, who has just been standing in the doorway watching the encounter. He waves awkwardly at R/N and her boyfriend. They just stare at him for a second before R/N speaks again, "What the hell, Y/N? You can't just move out." I stand and face them, "Actually, I can. I went to the housing director and told him everything. He has already contacted the resident director and advisor. So, yeah, I can just move out." R/N stares at me for a second before exploding, "You told them everything?! What the fuck is wrong with you?! I'm going to get into so much trouble and it is all your fault!" I stare at them wide-eyed and open my mouth to speak, only to be cut off by Mark. 
"Actually, it's your own fault. In my opinion, you're lucky Y/N has waited this long to say something. I would have reported you after you kicked me out almost every other night." R/N’s boyfriend was not happy at Mark's opinion and he made his way over to him, but before he could reach him, the resident director and my resident advisor, Danny, walked in.
"Hello, all. We could here your shouting down the hall. R/N, you and your boyfriend please come with us. Y/N continue packing, if you need any help please call one of us." I nod and they all walk out of the room, leaving Mark and I alone.
"So, is there anything I can do to help?" Marks asks suddenly. I look over and see that he is fighting to not laugh. I start laughing and soon he is laughing too. I nod and gesture to my desk and books, "You can start putting those in this box and I'll start packing my clothes." Mark gives me a mock salute and gets to work. 
Once I had finished packing all my clothes and Mark has finished packing my desk away, we both sit on my bed and look at my belongings. "You don't really have much do you?" Mark asks and I just shake my head. "Didn't see a point in bringing a bunch of stuff to a tiny dorm room." Mark nods and we both jump when his phone starts ringing loudly.
"Hey, Jackson." I look at Mark as he talks. He is so handsome. Wait, no, stop that Y/N! He is being nice because he needs someone to help with rent and he is just generally a nice guy. He probably doesn't even find you attractive.
"You guys are outside? Okay, um, give us like 10 minutes we only have a few more things to pack before we can head out." I can't make out the reply, but Mark is nodding, before he realizes they can't see him.
"Yup, they only have a couple boxes and a suitcase. So it shouldn't be too hard to move it all. So we'll be down in a bit. Bye." Mark and I jump off the bed and start to take the bedding off and shove it into a bag. Mark is doing a check of the closet and dresser to make sure I haven't left anything. I check behind the desk and under the bed to make sure nothing is left behind, knowing full well that if I did leave something I would never get it back.
Mark and I finish our check of the room when a knock sounds from the door. I open it to find Danny standing on the other side with a cart. "Hey, R/N and her boyfriend have been taken to the housing office to discuss disciplinary actions for what they have done. We thought it might be helpful if you had a cart to get everything at least to your car." I smile and thank them, then Mark speaks up. "My friends are waiting downstairs, so it will literally just help us get down there so they can grab it." Danny nods and then smiles, "It's good see that you have such a caring boyfriend, Y/N. How did you guys meet?" I look at Mark and he smiles, "We meet through some mutual friends and I thought she was really sweet and I could not stop thinking about her." Mark smiled at me and then Danny started cooing. "Okay, I think we should get this stuff loaded so we don't keep the guys waiting." I say quickly while placing one of the boxes on the cart. Mark laughs and starts to help load the cart. 
We were making our way to the entrance of the dorm when a thought hit me, "What do I do with my keys? The housing director told me to bring them to the office but if R/N and her boyfriend are there I definitely do not want to go." Danny nods, "I'll take them and then call the housing director to see what he wants me to do. I agree with you though, you don't want to be anywhere near them right now." I nod and we walk outside to see four guys chasing each other while two others are watching them with disappointed looks. The two not chasing each other turn around when they here the door open. They see Mark and start to make their way over to us.
"Wow, Mark you weren't joking, she really doesn’t have much." An intimidating guy says. The guy next to him nods, "You're right, but she lives in a tiny dorm room so why would she need that much?" They both nod and Mark just sighs. 
"Yah! Jackson, Youngjae, BamBam, Yugyeom! Stop being stupid and come help!" The intimidating guy yells, causing the four guys to stop and run over to us. Almost immediately they start grabbing boxes off the cart and walking in the direction of the apartment.
"Well, I guess you're all set, Y/N. I just need your keys and you are good to go." Danny says as he watches the guys carry my stuff away. I pull my keys out and remove the dorm keys, handing them to Danny. "Thanks for your help, Danny." Danny smiles and nods, "It was no problem, honestly you should have came to us as soon as R/N kicked you out of your room, but it's over now so whatever." I smile and laugh, "I would have but I didn't want to make an enemy that early in the semester." Danny laughs and nods, "I hope this new place is better for you." I nod and Mark wraps an arm around me, "It will be." Mark says while smiling down at me. I feel myself blush and Danny laughs, "Well you two better go catch up to your friends, bye Y/N!"
Mark and I wave to Danny then we quickly see how far away the guys are and we quickly jog to catch up to them.
"So Mark, are you going to introduce us?" The intimidating guy asked with a smirk. Mark shoves him lightly but introduces me anyway.
"This is Y/N. She saw my flyer in the dorm and called because her roommate kept kicking her out to fuck their boyfriend. She is friends with Phoenix and his brothers, have been since they were teens." The guys nodded and Mark started to introduce them, "This is Jaebum or JB, Jinyoung, Jackson, Youngjae, BamBam, and Yugyeom." I smile at them as we walk up to the apartment complex. So JB is the intimidating guy, Jinyoung was the guy standing with JB when Jackson, Youngjae, BamBam and Yugyeom were chasing each other outside of the dorm.
We get into the elevator and head to our floor. "BamBam is a unique name, is there a story behind your name?" BamBam and the guys laugh. "I am Thai and we get an official name for government documents and then a nickname that everyone calls us, my nickname is BamBam." 
"That's pretty cool." I tell him with a smile. We reach the floor and Mark unlocks the door. The guys start carrying the boxes inside, only to realize they haven't been to Mark's new apartment yet.
"Where's the second bedroom?" Jackson asks while adjusting his hold on the box. Mark points down the hallway, "Down the hall, second door on the left." The guys nod and take the boxes to the room.
"I can't believe I moved out of my dorm and into an apartment with someone who I didn't officially meet until yesterday." I say in shock as I sit on the couch. Mark laughs and sits next to me while placing an arm over my shoulder. The guys come back and they all start to 'ooh' at us. Mark just flicks them off and pulls me closer. "You guys are just jealous because I have a gorgeous roommate and you losers are stuck with each other." The guys shout in response and Mark just laughs. He just called me gorgeous! Does he realize what he just said? I look at Mark in shock and he winks at me. Oh, so he's a flirt now. 
We all hang out for a couple of hours before the guys need to head out, promising to help move the bed in tomorrow since they don’t have many classes. After they leave, Mark and I are sitting on the couch in silence.
"Thank you for everything, Mark." I say quietly and Mark just looks at me and smiles. "I haven’t done that much, I just helped you out of an annoying situation so that you can help me afford rent." Mark and I laugh, but I shake my head. "You’ve done more than a normal person would have, I mean you got your friends to help me move and you are even letting me use a bed, plus you are not making me pay a full 50% of the rent like I should." Mark just shrugs and puts an arm around my shoulder. 
We sit like that for a while when suddenly I start to yawn. Mark laughs and stands up from the couch, trying to pull me with him. "Just leave me here, I’m too tired to move." I whine as Mark pulls on my arm. "No Y/N, you’re back will kill you in the morning if I leave you here." I continue to whine for a few more minutes before Mark gives up and leans down to pick me up. "Mark, no stop it." He ignores me and literally carries me to his bedroom, I can feel my face burning as he places me down on the bed. I quickly roll over onto my stomach to hide my face. Mark laughs and jumps on the bed next to me, "Why are you hiding your face? Wait, are you blushing? Why are you blushing?" Mark pokes at my side and I wiggle to get away from his fingers. I wiggled too far and before I can catch myself I am falling off the bed. I hit the floor with a soft thud and Mark quickly jumps up and rushes to my side.
"Are you okay? Did you hit your head or anything?" I shake my head and start to laugh. Mark looks at me for a second before starting to laugh too. He helps me stand and I sit on the edge of the bed. "You know, you carried me in here but my clothes are in my room." Mark stops to think for a second before he turns to me. "Well, do you want me to carry you to your room?" He asks as he moves towards me. I quickly jump away and move across the bed away from him. "Nope, I’m good." Mark laughs and moves to the door, "Well let me show you your room since we never looked at it last night." I get off the bed and we walk to my room.
When get to the room and it is empty aside from the boxes from my dorm. Mark walks to the closet and opens it. "So the closet has built in shelves and drawers, so you don’t have to worry about needing a dresser or chest of drawers. You can use the bathroom in the hall since the on-suite is in my room, unless you want to switch rooms cause we can do that too." Mark looks at me and I shake my head. "No, Mark. I will not take your bedroom." Mark just laughs, "Y/N, I moved in yesterday so it’s not like I’m attached to the room. Honestly, I should have moved my stuff in here when you agree to move in. So let’s move your stuff to the other room and then you can help me move my stuff in here." I opened my mouth to protest but Mark just shushes me and starts grabbing boxes. "Come on. It’s not too late and we should be able to move my stuff pretty quick since it’s mostly on hangers." I nod and grab a box and follow Mark to his, I mean, my room. "I’ll start moving my stuff and you can grab the rest of your stuff. When the guys help move the bed tomorrow we can just leave this one in here because I think this was my roommates and not mine, it’s not broken in as well." Mark laughs and I move to grab the rest of the boxes. 
After moving everything and getting all of my stuff put away, Mark is looking at my sad excuse of a wardrobe. "Y/N, you have like no clothes." I shoot him a glare and he laughs. "Sorry, I only brought the essentials and I don’t really need more than clothes to wear to class or work since I don’t really go out much." Mark nods and I can see that he wants to say something. "Just say whatever you’re thinking Mark." Mark looks at me and sighs. "I was going to ask why you don’t go out much. I mean, your a pretty girl and you have a great personality, it just doesn’t make sense to me why no guy has snatched you up yet." I blush before answering. "Guys don’t like girls like me. They want girls who like parties, not girls who like books." Mark moves to sit next to me. "Sorry if it feels like I’m prying. I just don’t understand guys sometimes, there are great girls out there and they go for the ones who are easy to get into bed." I laugh and rest my head on his shoulder, "Thanks, Mark." Mark laughs and wraps an arm around me. "You’ve already thanked me." I laugh and we stand up to get ready for bed.
The next day the guys help Mark move the bed into his room and when I get back from class the guys are literally piled around the living room. I guess this is something I’ll have to get used to. I take my bag to my room and change into my comfy clothes. I go back out into the living room and move to sit on the floor next to Yugyeom, when I am pulled into someone’s lap. I turn around and see Jackson holding me close, I look at him strangely and he laughs. I look around and notice that Mark isn’t there. "Where is Mark?" JB looks up from his phone and smiles, "He went to grab some food from a place down the street. He should be back soon." I nod and we settle into a quiet conversation about classes. A few minutes later there is a bang at the door, Jinyoung gets up and answers it. The door opens to show Mark struggling with a lot of bags of food. I quickly jump off of Jackson’s lap and take some the bags from Mark. He barely acknowledges me as he is glaring at Jackson. Why is he glaring at Jackson? Could he be jealous? No way. I ignore it and head to the kitchen to unpack the bags.
~Mark’s P.O.V.~
I get back to the apartment, with help from some neighbors to get into the building, but I have no hands to open the door and the neighbor who let me in is watching from the end of the hall, so I kick at it once and hope one of the guys will answer. Luckily, they do and the neighbor who let me in nods and heads to their apartment. The door opens and I see that Jinyoung was the one who had opened the door, I step into the apartment, only to find Jackson with Y/N on his lap. Y/N quickly jumps up to help me with the bags and I ignore her in favor of glaring at Jackson. What game is he playing? Y/N isn’t his type so he has to be up to something. I move towards the kitchen and find Y/N unpacking the bags she took from my arms. "Hey, how was class?" I ask her and she looks up, taking more bags from my arms before answering. "Boring. How about you?" I hum and help her unpack the bags. "Not too bad, got out early and was able to go to the gym for a bit before these guys came over to help get that bed for my room. How long have you been home? I’m trying to learn your schedule." Great lie, idiot. "I got home like 15 minutes ago, I think. I hadn’t even noticed you weren’t here until Jackson forced me into his lap when I tried to sit on the floor." Y/N laughs and I nod. "I should have warned you that I had left and they would be here. Let’s print our schedules out so we can keep track of when each other should be home." Y/N nods and we call the guys in to eat.
After the guys left, Y/N and I sit in the living room finishing homework. The silence should be awkward, but it’s not. I look over at Y/N and I can’t help but be enthralled by her. She is so pretty, but I can’t fall for her. It might make her uncomfortable and I don’t want that. 
Y/N looks up and catches me staring, "What?" I quickly shake my head, "Uh, do you know anything about economics? I can’t figure out this problem." Y/N immediately shake her head. "Not at all, my best friend’s fiancé did my economics homework for me. He tried to teach me but it made not sense so he just did my weekly assignments for me the night before it was due." Y/N laughs and I smile at her. She gets up and stretches, "Well, I’m gonna head to bed. Will I see you in the morning?" I nod and smile, "Yup and I’ll pick you up after class so you don’t have to walk home alone." Y/N shakes her head, "You are really playing up this girlfriend thing. How are you going to get a girlfriend if you are treating me like your girlfriend?” I just laugh and shrug, "Who cares? A lot of girls don’t care for a real relationship anyway." Y/N shakes her head and with a final goodbye she walks down the hall and I hear the door close. I sit on the couch for a few more minutes before I head to my room and go to bed.
~Time Skip 2 Months Later~
~Y/N’s P.O.V.~
I have been living with Mark for about 2 months now and it has been great. I have gained some new friends and I haven’t been kicked out of my own place. Mark and I have a great system, we walk to campus and home together when our classes end at similar times, we cook together and we hangout on the weekends. To someone on the outside, it probably looks like a loving relationship and for some weird reason Mark is okay with that.
Today is an unusual day, both of my classes got cancelled so I decided to spend the day cleaning the apartment. It’s not like the apartment is a mess, Mark and I keep it tidy, but the floors need to be swept and mopped, the surfaces need to be washed or dusted, and bathrooms definitely need to be scrubbed. I start by treating the bathrooms with cleaner and then start mopping and sweeping. After a few hours, I have everything clean and I am about to start cooking when there is a knock a the door. I move to answer it, only to realize I am only wearing a sports bra and a pair of short shorts. I grab the first thing I can find, which happens to be Mark’s favorite button up, I run to the door and open it quickly. I open it to reveal a girl about my age, "Hi, can I help you?" She looks me up and down for a second before answering, "I was looking for Mark, is he here?" Something in my mind clicks and I low-key start to panic, but I know I have to stay calm. "He’s in class right now, he won’t be back until later. I’m his girlfriend, is there any way I can help you?" She looks at me wide eyed before answering, "You’re Mark’s girlfriend?" I nod and I can see that she is getting upset. "How long have you guys been together?" She looks at me and I try to stay calm. "3 months or so? We’ve been friends for a while. What did you say your name was? How do you know Mark?" She starts to fidget before something like clicks in her mind. When she looks at me it is like she is a different person. "Listen, Mark belongs with me. So why don’t you do him a favor and just leave? I won’t ask nicely again and if I have to ask again it won’t be pretty." I look at her wide eyed as she threatens me so openly. I could shut the door in her face and call the cops but I don’t know if I would be able to shut the door fast enough. I look at her and she has this smirk on her face. I decide that I have to stand up for myself and Mark. "You listen to me. I will not leave Mark and I will not be threatened. Now I recommend you leave my place and if you ever come near me or Mark again I will call the cops, because unlike Mark, I do not care about your future and I will have you locked up. Leave now." 
She looks at me in shock for a second before her personality switches again. She starts to laugh and suddenly she lunges for me. She grabs my hair and pulls me into the hall, I scream and hope that one of my neighbors hear. She tries to punch me but I am able to grab her arms to keep her away from me. I hear a door down the hall open and I see Mrs. Peters look out with her son, Chris, behind her. Mrs. Peters realizes what’s happening and Chris comes running to my aid as Mrs. Peters calls the police. Chris is able to pull her off of me as more neighbors come out to investigate. One of my neighbors helps Chris hold Rina in place as other rush to me, I have a gash on my forehead from hitting something during our struggle. A few minutes later the cops show up and put Rina in handcuffs and take her to their car. 
When Mark shows up the police are talking to my neighbors and the paramedics are checking on me. He comes rushing down the hall but the cops stop him. "That’s my girlfriend, what happened?" After hearing his words they let him through and he rushes to my side where a paramedic is looking at my head. "What happened?" Mark asks quickly and a police officer comes over. "Ms. Y/L/N, can you tell us what happened?" I nod, "I was about to start cooking dinner when she knocked on the door. She asked for Mark and I instantly knew she was the girl that has been stalking him. I tell her that I am his girlfriend and that he won’t be home until later, when she suddenly goes crazy telling me that she belongs with Mark and that I need to leave him or it won’t be pretty for me. I tell her that I will not leave Mark and that she needs to leave and if I see her again I will call the cops. Then she goes crazy again and attacked me, Mrs. Peters and Chris came out and he pulled her off me and then some other neighbors come out to help. They helped put pressure on my head and then you all showed up. Oh no, Mark this is your favorite shirt! It probably has blood on it!" Mark laughs and shakes his head. "It’s okay, I have two of those shirts so it’s cool. I’m just glad you’re okay, I mean you’re hurt because of me." I shake my head and I am about to answer when the paramedic interrupts, "Miss, we are going to need to take you to the hospital to get this gash taken care of, your boyfriend is free to come along but we should get that looked at by a doctor." I nod again and look at Mark, "Mark can you run inside and get my bag? I’m going to need my insurance card and stuff, oh and can you grab me some sweatpants? I really don’t want to be wearing short shorts when we have to come home." Mark nods and goes to the apartment, soon coming out with my bag and a pair of his sweatpants. 
~Narrator P.O.V.~
You get into the ambulance and they take you the emergency room where you are lucky to not need stitches, only a little glue and tape. Mark stays by your side the entire time, apologizing whenever the nurse or doctor leaves. It was honestly getting on your nerves. Mark apologizes again and you snap, "Mark, if you apologize one more time I will have them remove you. This is not your fault, I could have went into the apartment and shut the door, but I chose to challenge her. Look at it this way, she’s in jail and she will be for a long time, I mean she came right to your door knowing damn well that you have a restraining order and then she threatened and attacked me. This is not your fault." Mark nods and he takes your hand. With sad eyes, he looks at it and takes in the scratches and bruises forming. You interlace your fingers and Mark looks up at you, you can see the tears in his eyes. With your other hand you wipe the tear that has escaped and Mark nuzzles into your hand. 
"Mark, why are you so upset? I mean she didn’t hurt me that much and she won’t bother you again. So why are you crying?" Mark looks at you and smiles, pulling your intertwined hands to his mouth and placing a kiss on your knuckles. "How can I not be upset when someone I love gets hurt?" 
~Y/N’s P.O.V.~
LOVE?! Did he just say he loves me?
"Love? Mark what are you saying?" Mark looks at me and laughs, "Come on, Y/N. You’re smart, you know what I mean." I cannot believe what I am hearing and I stare at Mark with wide eyes. Do I like Mark? Yes. How long have I had feelings for him? Probably since I woke up with his arms around me that first day. This cannot be real.
I apparently said that last thought out loud because Mark laughs. "This is real, babe. You didn’t hit your head that hard." I look at Mark and he smiles at me. "I like you, Mark. A lot." Mark gives me a huge smile and leans over to place a kiss of my forehead, carefully avoiding my wound. We sit in the room for another 15 minutes before a nurse comes in telling us that we are free to go once the doctor finishes recording the visit. I turn to Mark, "How are we getting home? We both got here in the ambulance." Mark laughs, "I texted the boys while we were in the ambulance. They got here a few minutes ago, they’ll take us home." I nod and the nurse comes in with the discharge papers. I pull on Mark’s sweats and we head out to the waiting room. The boys rush to my side and they each gently pull me into a hug before we head back to the apartment. JB and Jinyoung stopped and picked up pizza for everyone since I wasn’t able to cook. 
When we get to the apartment, there are notes stuck to the door from our neighbors and ever some flowers sitting outside. Wow they work fast. We get the notes off the door and take the flowers inside, where I have to tell the story all over again for the boys and they praise me for being brave. They also cheer at the fact that I didn’t need stitches. After a few hours of hanging out, the boys decide to go home, leaving Mark and I in silence. Mark and I are sitting on opposite sides of the couch, but he feels too far away, so I gently move to his side and wrap myself around him. Mark laughs and puts his arm around me, pulling me closer. We sit like that for a few minutes before I feel myself drifting in and out of sleep. Mark seems to notice because he gently gets up and pulls me with him, "Come on, let’s get you to bed." I quietly follow him, he leads me to my room and helps me into bed. He goes to walk out and I grab his wrist and whine. "Stay with me." Mark laughs and turns around, "Let me go get changed and I’ll be right back. Okay?" I nod and he places a kiss to my cheek before going to change. I decide that I should probably change too, I get up and pull off my sports bra. I am standing in my closet debating on what to wear when I here Mark coming back. I grab a big t-shirt and a pair of night shorts. I grab his shirt that I took off and moved to the bathroom to try and get the blood out. Mark comes into the room seeing me in the bathroom. He knocks on the door and I look at him. "What are you doing? I thought we were going to bed?" I nod and continue to pull out the peroxide. "I want to try to get this blood out before it sets in even more." Mark laughs and walks to stand behind you. "I told you not to worry about it, I have two of these shirts. Come to bed." I shake my head and continue rinsing the blood out of the shirt. "I know you have two but just think how cute we’d look if we were matching. Plus, it’s already almost out. See?" I hold up the shirt, showing him that the blood was almost completely gone. Mark stares at the shirt wide eyed. "How the heck? How do you know how to do that?" I look at Mark with a raised eyebrow. "Do I really need to explain how I know how to remove blood from clothes?" Mark flushes red and shakes his head. “Nope.” I laugh and finish cleaning the shirt before taking it and throwing it into the washer. 
I get back to the room to find Mark laying in bed, I smile and join him. He pulls me close and I nuzzle into his chest. “I’m so happy that it’s the weekend. I would have needed to take a mental health day from classes. I can only imagine what it’s going to be like explaining this on Monday.” I say pointing at my forehead. Mark laughs and kisses the top of my head. “Just tell them that you fought a bear and won or that you take martial arts classes and had to use what you have learned to save a child.” I look at Mark like he is crazy and he just laughs. I shake my head and nuzzle into his chest. “Thank you, Mark.” Mark looks down at me and smiles. “What are you thanking me for now?” I shrug and hold him tight. ���I don’t know, everything I guess. I mean you helped me move out of my dorm, gave me a wonderful place to live, you have helped me with classwork, helped me make new friends, and you have cared for me.” Mark laughs and pulls me up so that we are face to face. “I should be thanking you. You have helped me by moving in here, you help cook, clean, and you help me with the guys and homework. Oh, and how can I forget that you have shown me how important a single person can be to me. I mean, ever since you moved in have felt like I need to protect and care for you and I didn’t want anyone else to touch you. Do you remember the second day we lived here? When the guys helped move the bed in? Jackson had pulled you into his lap and I was so mad. I knew he was up to something because you aren’t his type, at all. I think he could sense that I had feelings for you. I was ready to punch him for touching you.” Mark laughs as he recounts the day. “I always told myself that I couldn’t fall for you because I was afraid to make you uncomfortable and that you would leave. I know that was dumb, but I just didn’t want to lose you. I sound crazy, don’t I?” Mark asks and I shake my head. “No, just passionate.” We both laughed and I felt myself slowly drifting to sleep, just as my thoughts became fuzzy, I hear Mark whisper, “I love you, Y/N.” I smile to myself and nuzzle deeper into his chest, happy to be in the arms of someone as amazing as Mark and knowing that this is just the beginning of a great relationship.
