    Summary

    Lee Donghyuck and Mark Lee have always lived a privileged life swallowed whole by fashion, culture, and Manhattan’s finest high-society.

    Unfortunately for their parents, their once inseparable childhood bond shattered at the ripe age of nine over an argument Donghyuck remembers far too well.

    Years of bickering and strategic avoidance later, Donghyuck finds himself dumped by a two-timing heir and hungry for revenge, while Mark would simply like his elitist mother to stop dragging eligible bachelorettes to his doorstep every five minutes.

    So when Donghyuck proposes a fake relationship for the sake of their equally miserable causes, Mark reluctantly agrees.

    It is only a matter of time before Manhattan’s gossip columns become obsessed with their newfound romance - but how long can two lifelong rivals keep up the pretence before one of them breaks first?

    Summary

    It must be a sign from the universe that the seat next to Peter Lee has become his designated spot.

    He’s not sure why the seat’s always empty. Peter’s totally normal, definitely not the type of person you’d swerve to avoid. He’s a good-looking, no, the best-looking guy he’s ever seen in the department. He writes his notes on his MacBook like a secretary in a high-rise corporate office, and smells like the expensive part of a Macy’s. Considering the amount of texting he does, Mark’s concluded he has a lot of friends, so he's not antisocial. The only natural conclusion Mark can draw is that the universe wants them to be closer together.

    One of these days, he thinks, he’s going to say something to him.

     

    (Mark's a writing major that can't write, and Donghyuck is straight out of a daydream. Mark feels like he's finally waking up.)

    Summary

    Tossing and turning at night, worrying about a man who doesn’t think of him as anything more than an acquaintance is a downright demeaning way to live, he inherently knows this. It doesn’t stop him from losing sleep over whether or not Mark has already moved onto the next big thing.

    It doesn’t hurt any less when he watches Mark eat breakfast across the table the following morning, never losing eye-contact with his phone.

    (Mark wants to be friends, and Donghyuck is tired of running in circles.)

    Summary

    "We've got another request here," he practically purrs into the mic. His vocal tone is addicting even when speaking and Mark finds himself almost shushing the rest of his group from their animated discussion to hear better. "We love performing what you all want to hear, so keep requesting y'all! This is Manchild for Mark."

    OR

    Mark is on a bachelor party in Nashville and he becomes obsessed with a pretty lead singer at Tootsies Orchid Lounge.

    Summary

    If you asked Mark where it started, he'd say on that one train ride to Busan, or maybe the summer before college. But you're not asking Mark, because he doesn’t know the half of it and you want the full story. So, you're asking Donghyuck, and he'll tell you where it starts. He's nice like that.

    (or, Mark never believes Donghyuck when he tells him he's been in love with him from the moment he learned how to say his name, but—well. He has.)
