Save Your Tears For Another Day ?Markhyuck?||Completed

Tw// a little bit of violence/anger

"Yejun, please chew with your mouth closed," Mark begged his baby brother one evening while they were eating dinner.

Their parents weren't home yet and Mark already guessed that they wouldn't be coming home any time soon so he had made dinner. The only thing they had were noodles so the older made it. But after they ate that, Yejun was still hungry so he had given the three year old boy a few cookies which Yejun happily munched on.

The little toddler didn't do what Mark asked and instead decided to tease him and disobey him like any child would do towards authority figures, thinking it would be a fun joke.

But boy was Yejun wrong.

"I'm not going to tell you again," Mark tilted his head in frustration as he warned the boy who continued chewing with his mouth open, purposely show casing all of the munched up cookies in his mouth.

"I said stop!" Mark grabbed Yejun's plate of cookies and threw it across the dinning room against the wall, the plate braking into shards of glass which scared the little boy who was now shaking meanwhile Mark was fuming as he was just getting started.

He snatched the cookie in Yejun's hands and threw it in the trash can before abruptly standing up from his chair, pulling the ends of his hair in annoyance, groaning. Yejun watched as he saw a new side of his older brother that he was most definitely positive he did not want to see ever again.

"I told you to stop but you didn't! It's your fault!" Mark yelled at his younger brother, grabbing his ears while Yejun started crying. "Get out of my face if you're going to cry. I can't stand it!"

Yejun hiccuped as he slid off of his seat and ran into his room with tears falling. Mark didn't mean to sound that harsh towards his baby brother. He was just afraid that if Yejun was in his sight any longer, he might hurt him because he had already been triggered. And he didn't want to hurt him in any way.

It's better if Yejun wasn't present so that he was able to calm himself down. Besides, crying was another thing that bothered him. He let out a sigh of frustration as he lazily rubbed his eyes. He immediately grabbed his ear buds and plugged them in his ears, playing soft orchestral music. Listening to music would usually calm him down within ten minutes, but sometimes if he was really angry like right now, it would take a while longer to calm back down again and regain his sense.

Mark closed his eyes as he listened to the melody of the music. Nobody but his family knew of Mark's disorder which he was glad that nobody from school knew. He didn't want to have an offensive label, he'd rather stick to 'the quiet kid.' And since nobody knew, he had to get out of situations faster so that nobody would find out. People are so quick to judge what they see.

He had already been triggered earlier today in school because of this annoying kid that won't leave him alone. The sounds of his golden rings on his middle finger and ring finger on his right hand clashing together bothered him. He felt like he could hear the noise piercing through his ear drums, echoing in his brain.

He had to get out of there quickly before he lashes out and everybody figures out that he has some sort of problem with himself. His name was Donghyuck and he blamed him for the reason as to why he snapped at his baby brother today, adding more resentment towards the oblivious tanned male.

Mark continued to listen to his music as he cleaned up the mess of broken glass he made and threw it away before anybody could get hurt from it. He swept up the cookie crumbs and threw them away as well. And finally, he washed the dishes in the sink before drying his hands and removing his ear buds, taking a deep breath as he walked over to Yejun's room to apologize.

He opened the door to find Yejun sitting on the floor with his knees tucked in his chest underneath his arms. The little boy looked up at his older brother as a wave a fear washed over him, being afraid that he'll get in trouble again and he didn't want to anger Mark....

Never again.

It was a Saturday afternoon and Donghyuck had just finished getting ready to go to the mall for clothes, shopping for the winter formal. He skipped out of the house after saying goodbye to his parents, his feet taking him right in front of Renjun's front door. He paused with his hand raised the in the air as he was going to knock.

He stood there, contemplating whether or not he should, but his questions were answered when Renjun's door swung open, revealing the shorter male wearing a turtle neck surprisingly just like him. Donghyuck turned around with a small huff as he crossed his arms.

"Well don't just stand there and catch a temper tantrum. Let's go," Renjun said, closing the door behind him and walking in front of Donghyuck who trailing behind him sulkily.

They made it to the mall where Jaemin, Chenle, and even Jisung were waiting for them. Chenle and Jisung were holding pinkys as if they were making a pinky promise (but instead of a promise, they continued having their fingers latched on to one another), seemingly too afraid to actually hold each other's hands which made Donghyuck coo at the two youngest boys.

Renjun lifted his brow at Chenle who blushed immensely, stepping behind Jisung to hide himself. Renjun clicked his tongue playfully at his younger cousin and walked into one of the stores, leaving everybody behind to follow him.

"Junnie don't walk so fast," Donghyuck pouted as he followed the older. "Let's just get this over with," Renjun responded and Donghyuck nodded, keeping his head down.
