Being stationed in Afghanistan was a little... Exquisite. Let's leave it at that. I was practically a loner except for my two friends, Mark - who goes by Markiplier - and the other one who won't tell us his real name. He just tells us to call him Pewds. Well, at least I don't think his name is Pewds. Because that's a weird name.

I bet the other soldiers thought we had a threesome going on or something with how close the three of us are. I swear. The army is exactly like high school.

Pewds, Markiplier, and I sat at our usual spot for free time. We sat underneath a tree right outside of the sorta-building we slept in.

"Hey, Phil, do you think anything's gonna happen today?" Markiplier asked me.

I opened my mouth, but Pewds spoke first. "Something already has! We have a new recruit!" Markiplier and I looked at Pewds.

"How would you know that?" Markiplier asked him.

"I eavesdrop mainly. But he's cool."

"What's his name?" I asked Pewds.

"Dan... Dan Howell I think." Pewds answered.

I shivered a little and felt adrenaline course through my body. Was that what I think it was? No. No, no, no. Not here. I looked down at my clock to see it had only a couple hours left.

2 hours 19 minutes

"Hm. You've got such little time." Markiplier said as he looked at it.

"Do you think it's Dan?" Pewds asked me.

"With how bad that chill was? No shit, Sherlock." I retorted.

"Fuck you, Watson." Pewds retaliated. Markiplier, Pewds, and I all started laughing.

Once the laughter had died down, I asked, "Can you guys help me look for him? I don't wanna delay the moment."

"Ay, ay, Captain!" Markiplier and Pewds stood up and saluted to me.

"We're in the army, not in SpongeBob. Tone down your shit." I laughed.

We went off in a mini search party. I asked everyone I knew here and was on the edge of giving up. I then thought, "Who would you ask for help when you need something here?" The general, of course! I headed my way over to General Sivan's office. I knocked on the crappy doorway.

"Troye, hey." I held out my hand.

"Hey, Phil. What's up?" Troye shook my hand.

"Pewds told me that we have a new recruit. Is it true?"

"Oh, uh, yeah, actually, yeah. His name is Dan Howell." I shivered and audibly blew out a shaky breath. Troye grabbed my arm and saw my clock.

15 minutes

"Well, well, well. I'm guessing you're gay?" Troye asked, seeing as there are no women in this camp. I nodded shyly. "Don't worry. I've got a fiancé. His name is Tyler." Troye smiled.

I covered my face with my hands to hide my blush. "That's really cute, I'm sorry." I said through my hands.

"Enough about me, let's go take you to your clockmate." Troye grabbed my wrist and pulled me along.

We picked up Pewds and Markiplier along the way as Troye lead me through the camp. We weaved our way through people, tents, and half-buildings. Pewds and Markiplier were fangirling behind me as I followed Troye. My heart rate picked up. Faster and faster and faster. My palms were sweating and I tried to run it off on my pants, but had no luck.

"Are we there, yet, Troye?" I asked nervously.

"Yeah. He's in his tent." We stood outside of a tent.

"So, what's the pla-" I was cut off by my friends pushing me inside. I landed on something fleshy and warm. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry!"

I scooted off of the person and looked at his face. His brown sorta-fringe was splayed across his pale, milky skin. I knew both of our clocks were ticking in sync, but all I could focus on was how much I wanted to kiss his parted lips.

"I'm Dan. I'm a new recruit." Dan whispered.

"I'm Phil. I'm your clockmate."

"You're not looking at my eyes, so just go ahead." Dan shrugged.

"Wh-What are you talking about?" I stuttered.

Dan pushed me onto my back and crawled on top of me. "You're staring at my lips, Phil. So, why let you bear the torture instead of actually kissing me?" Dan's lips hovered over mine as he spoke.

"I-I-I'm sorry, I didn't m-" I was interrupted by Dan not even setting for a close-mouthed kiss. His tongue rubbed against mine and I moaned into his mouth as I kissed him back.

Dan pulled away and said, "You need to just shut up and kiss me."
