3rd person P.O.V U~U

It was a normal day in London for Mark. He had a morning shift at the local book store, while Jon stayed with Edd. Mark didn't trust Jon to stay home anymore because of what happened That day.... It will be explained. ANYWAY THATS BESIDES THE POINT! Lets see what mark is up to. 

Mark was up at the counter checking out books for people. Everyone was so nice to him, he had worked there for so long now, everybody knew him. On his break time, he would go in the back and read on his own, or read to kids who would come by to check out some books. On this particular day, nobody had come, so he was free to read on his own. 

~TIME SKIP because i'm lazy and have no idea what to write, ANYWAY~

Mark had arrived at his house. He got out of the car and Jon ran up and hugged him. Eventually they both went into their rooms and went to bed. 

~THE NEXT MORNING~

A normal day like any other, but Something was off. Nothing bad, just... weird. 

He woke up 15 minutes before his alarm, remembered to wake Jon up, and had about ten minutes to relax. The last time he felt like this was when he met Jon. And he considers that one of his best days because he would still be alone to this day if he hadn't. 

He walked Jon over to Edd's, and went to work. It seemed like a normal day, except the shop wasn't as crowded as normal. Not thinking anything of it, mark sat back in his chair and kept reading his book. 

About 5 minutes later, someone came into the shop. "Good morning," Mark said, with his face still burred in his book. "Excuse me sir," The man said. Mark sat his book down and walked over to the isle the man was in. 

"I was wondering what you think of this book," The man said as he turned around. Mark grabbed the book and looked at it. "Hmm," Mark said. "Honestly I would not recommend this book," mark said. 

Eduardo blushed. His voice, sounded familiar and it was calming. "Are you a beginner reader? I've never seen you here before," Mark said. Eduardo struggled for words. "Oh- uh- I uh-, Yeah. I'm new to reading," Eduardo stuttered. 

"Alright, thats all I needed to know. Follow me," Mark said walking off. Eduardo followed him. They walked about 7 Isles down, when marked turned. He stopped about half way down the Isle and started scanning the shelf. 

He picked up a book and read the back. "Ya into horror?" Mark asked still reading the book. "Na, not my interest," Eduardo said. Mark put the book back and scanned the shelf more. "Romance?" Mark asked. 

"Yeah, I like romance," Eduardo said. Mark picked up a book and handed it to him. "I'd recommend this one," Mark said. Eduardo smiled. "Take it home and finish it, come back and tell me if ya liked it," Mark said leading eduardo back to his desk. "Alright I will," Eduardo said as mark checked the book out. 

Mark handed Eduardo the book, When Eduardo reached for it, their hands touched. Mark blushed, and so did Eduardo. "Uh- uh- have a nice day sir," Eduardo said walking out the door. Mark was silent for a moment. 

"Y- you too," Mark said quietly. Mark was left in the quiet shop, thinking. What the heck just happened? Was he just messing with me? Mark went home confused as ever. 

~mini time skip~

Mark had Just got home from work, he was sitting in the living room with a book in his hands, but he wasn't really reading. Jon tried to get his attention multiple times, but he was just to beep in thought. Jon eventually gave up and went to his room. 

Mark was sitting, in the living room, in the dark, thinking. Today had felt off, but now it just felt weird. He couldn't stop thinking about the guy at the book shop. And the worst thing was, He didn't even know his name. 

So why was this happening? People had come to the book shop all the time, Had even confessed to him, And it was always so easy to get them off his mind. He never really even thought about them. So why now? Why him? 

He didn't even know the guy. All he was doing was his job, and for some reason he couldn't get him off his mind. He stared into the darkness, and looked down at his hands. A tear rolled down his face. He blinked quickly 3 times and realized he hadn't been blinking. He wiped the water from his eyes.

He put his book down and went to his room. He got in his Pjs and got into bed. He thought for a moment, smiled, and went to bed.
