Sean's POV

I was nervous. My hands were sweaty, my heart was pounding, and I was even shaking. Mark noticed this and sat down next to me, holding my hand and rubbing circles with his thumb.

"Is now the right time?", I asked him, trying not to sound scared.

"If you don't want to tell people, then don't. I'm not going to force you. But wouldn't you rather it was you telling them than them having to guess, or find out from some random person?" I sighed. He was right, as usual. I turned on the camera as Mark moved out of view for the moment.

"Top of the mornin to ya laddies, my name is Jacksepticeye, and...actually, I'm just going to be Sean in this video." I laughed awkwardly for a moment. "As you may or may not know, one of my best friends Mark recently came out as gay on his channel, and I am hugely supportive of him and I'm super proud of him for having the courage to tell people, even when he knew that some people might not accept it." 

I played with my hair for a moment and noticed Mark was already tearing up at what I was saying. "Now that's kind of why I'm here. What I'm about to say is actually sort of a surprise for me as well, since even I didn't know until very recently, but...I'm bisexual...."

I explained how I had come to this realisation without using names, and eventually got to me and Mark. I motioned for him to come over and sit next to me. "I'm sure, or I know that there are a lot of people out there who ship me and Mark, so I guess we might as well make a few peoples days." Mark sat down and waved to the camera.

 "Hey guys." He ruffled his hair a little before continuing. "You all know by now that Jack has been staying in L.A. for a while to do some collabs and stuff with me and the other guys here. But what we didn't say before is that Jack is actually staying with me while he's visiting."

I sighed heavily and looked at Mark for a moment. "And, long story short, me and Mark are..." I stopped and sighed again, rubbing my eyes. "I can't do it." I said to Mark, turning the camera off. "I don't want to tell them just now." I could see that Mark was upset and it made me want to cry.

"That's fine", Mark reassured me, pulling me in for a quick kiss and a long comforting hug. "There's no rush, we can do it whenever you're ready." He rubbed circles into my back as we continued to hold each other.

"No." I whispered. 

"No?", he asked me, a puzzled look on his face.

"I need to tell them now." I said, assuring myself that it was the right thing to do. 

"If you're sure, then lets do it!" he said, sounding somewhat excited. I cleared my throat and turned the camera back on.

"Me and Mark are a couple." I said quickly. He smiled at me and held my hand again. "It is still very early days, but I have a good feeling about this. Only time will tell if it works out, but I really do hope it will, because...well how often do you end up with someone who's so similar to you?"

"Oh, and just to prove he isn't lying..." Mark pulled me in for a kiss, and we both laughed hysterically when he pulled away again. I said my outro and Mark said goodbye, and I turned the camera off again. 

"Did you really mean what you said?" Mark asked me. 

"Of course I did! I really do want this to work out." I replied. Mark ruffled his hair again and then leaned over the chair to put his hands on my shoulders. "Am I getting a free massage or something?" I asked playfully.

"Not this time, we'll save that for later." he said, his sexy evil grin making an appearance. I smiled back at him and sighed as I clicked upload on the video.

<*in sassy voice* its a time skip, so you'd better be ok with it!>

Marks POV

It had been 3 weeks since Sean had flown over and we were officially dating (if you call recording videos, eating takeaway then having sex as dating), but Sean was still worried about what people were saying about us. No matter what I told him, he still went on about what his viewers thought of him, of us.

As I cut my thinking short, Sean walked into the house; he had been shopping.

"There aren't any good sweets out here!" Sean exclaimed. "And how do you Americans survive without good cookies?"

"Hey!" I shouted jokingly. "We have good cookies!" He shook his head and we both laughed. As he put the shopping in the kitchen, he said something that made me drop the TV remote.

"Nope, cookies in Ireland are much better. The sooner I get home the better!"

Oooooh! It's almost the end! Sorry for the relative shortness of the chapter, this is mostly filler (you need it somewhere) and it is really hard to write when you have dramatic music playing constantly from your iPod :-P 

Anyways, I do hope you still enjoyed reading, and are looking forward to the 2 part finale chapter coming up soon! See you soon...
