Summary
Donghyuck is an actor by trade. It's how he makes his money and how he makes Jaemin and Renjun their money and how he’s able to pay for his brother’s Arts degree and the reason why he can't go anywhere without either bodyguards or a disguise. Before all of this, he actually thought he was pretty good at it. Thought he’d mastered packing himself away, folding his arms and legs neatly into a box and slotting it in the space behind his sternum, to pretend to be someone else with different motivations and desires and ideas.
But then Mark appears and suddenly Donghyuck can’t find the box anymore, can’t slip his skin off and tuck himself out of sight before he gives himself away.
That doesn’t stop him from trying.

Summary
“Do all the boys you meet throw themselves to the ground for you?”
“Almost all,” Donghyuck whispers, “Would you do it for me, Mark?”
“I wouldn’t kneel for anyone,” Mark whispers back, goosebumps raising on the pale skin of his chest when Donghyuck runs the nail of a finger down its center, leaving a faded red line behind. “Some things are reserved for holier grounds.”
Mark Lee has a novel to write, a notebook filled with poems and enough sadness to drown the whole world in black—a color as dark as the one tinting top-model Lee Donghyuck's broken heart.
Somehow, in the middle, they crash.

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
That’s where he first saw Jaehyun.
In the park, jogging with his colour-coordinated athletic clothing, breaths steaming the air. His ears were as pink as his cheeks. His eyes were curious when his jog slowed to a walk, and then a stop in front of Doyoung. The little LGBT+ pin on his jacket shone in the dull light. He was too beautiful to look at, so Doyoung ignored him.
