"Next up! Batter Nakamoto Yuta! Yuta has had a good run so far this season, his fifth season playing with NCT, with a total of fifteen home runs, six fouls and only three outs! Quite impressive for his solo record! Let's see how he plays his first time up tonight!"
                          
Yuta walked up to the white plate. He payed no attention to the ball boy, nor to the umpire standing to his right. The only thing on his mind was getting another home run. Another home run to add to his record. 
                          
He removed his mind from his thoughts to focus on the pitcher. The pitcher this game was the one and only Byun Baekhyun, the main pitcher for EXO. He wasn't just famous for his looks either, he was known for throwing hard pitches, most of them being impossible to hit, and if they could be hit, the ball almost never went where the batter wanted it to go.
                          
Yuta was going to change that.
                          
Or not.
                          
Yuta hit the ball. But like other batters, the ball went backwards rather than forwards. He watched as it flew into the foul zone, and right into the mitt of the ball boy. 
                          
Mark Lee.
                          
Mark joined the team at the beginning of the season, so Yuta didn't know him as well as he knew his other teammates. But seeing Mark catch the ball (a ball that was very difficult to catch) Yuta suddenly wanted to know him more. A lot more.
                          
.........
                          
Yuta was beyond happy at the end of the game. The two teams tied, but Yuta achieved three more home runs. Three more to his record. 
                          
But Yuta was more focused on something else. Well, someone else.
                          
"Mark!" Yuta smiled as he ran up to the ball boy. He was shorter, not by much, and obviously younger, and undeniably cute.
                          
"Y-Yuta? Ah-uhm..." Mark trailed off, a strawberry red color on his cheeks.
                          
"Yuta's the name, and I'm sure you know that. We are on the same team are we not?"
                          
"Ah yeah we are. We've never really talked before though."
                          
"That's true, we haven't. But-"
                          
"Good game guys!"
                          
Both boys turned to see Baekhyun and one of his teammates, Chanyeol, walking up to them.
                          
"Ah yeah good game," Mark bowed slightly in respect. "That was a very good hit Chanyeol. Most people can't hit the ball when Taeyong hyung pitches that way."
                          
"Thanks," Chanyeol chuckled and rubbed the back of his neck. "Well, we don't want to interrupt your date. Just wanted to say good game."
                          
"Date?" Mark's face increased in redness. "You-"
                          
"Let's go out on a double date one day," Baekhyun winked before he and Chanyeol walked away.
                          
"Y-Yuta. D-date?" Mark laughed anxiously. "I need to sit down."
                          
Yuta sat down alongside Mark. "That was a good catch today."
                          
"Which one?" Mark swallowed. "I caught a few."
                          
"The one foul I had. My first bat when Baekhyun pitched."
                          
"O-oh that one."
                          
"Yeah that one." Yuta smiled, trying to think of a way to fill the silence. Then a thought hit him. "I heard Taeyong is working on pitching with you."
                          
"Yeah he is. I was scouted for the team for my pitching abilities, but Taeyong is helping me get better. Then maybe I can pitch in the future."
                          
"I hope to see you pitching officially in the future." Yuta snickered at the thought of his next words. "If you pitch your heart to me, I'll make sure I catch it."
                          
Mark froze, causing Yuta to burst into laughter. "Y-you can't just use a pickup line like that and expect me to be okay! YUTA!" Annoyed at the other for laughing continuously, Mark climbed on top of him to cover his mouth. "Shush. Pickup lines don't work on me."
                          
Yuta grabbed Mark's hand in his and smirked . "Mhm, sure. But look how close we are. I could kiss you right now."
                          
"Yuta..." he buried his face in Yuta's shoulder. "You can't keep doing this. My heart is going to beat out of my chest. Or explode from beating so fast."
                          
"Awe so you admit I'm making your heart race?"
                          
Mark removed his head from Yuta's shoulder. "Just take me on a date already."
                          
Now Yuta froze. "I- you actually want to go on a date?"
                          
"Yes," Mark blushed. "I won't lie, I kind of have a little... not so little crush on you..."
                          
"Awwww Mark!" Yuta pulled Mark into a tight hug. "Don't worry, I do too."
                          
"Really?"
                          
"Yup. The day you got introduced to us the only thought in my head was: wow he's cute. What was your first thought of me?"
                          
"I thought you have an amazingly beautiful smile. And that you're really handsome. And I wondered what type of boyfriend you would be?"
                          
"B-boyfriend? Not friend? Not teammate? Boyfriend?"
                          
"I don't wanna talk about it."
                          
"No. You totally had a crush on me before you got scouted and joined the team, didn't you?"
                          
"I cannot confirm nor deny that information."
                          
"I'll take that as a yes then."
                          
"Fine, yes."
                          
"Anyways, shall we go on our date? Then maybe, just maybe, you can find out what type of boyfriend I am?"
                          
"You say maybe like you aren't already smitten."
                          
"I feel attacked."
                          
"No you don't, now come on. Let's go!"
                          
Mark stood up and took off running, Yuta following after.
                          
"I'm coming I'm coming!"


                          
A/N: I (when I say I, I mean __taehoney__ ) came up with this idea after we watched a random video of a ball girl catching a ball. 
                          
I added home run by got7 for your enjoyment as well... I wrote the word: home run and immediately started singing it so... yeah
                          
Also not me adding Chanbaek because I love them so freaking much and they're like,, my second favorite ship now? Sorry not sorry.
                          
Also, Baekhyun in a baseball uniform:
