Mark's POV
I always hated when Sean and I's trips together ended. Either he had to go back to Ireland or I had to go back to America, and it sucked. This time, Sean had come to America and he actually stayed a bit longer this time. It was great seeing him again, it had been awhile since his last visit. We spent every second together and we were rarely without the other most of the time. I had planned some stuff for us to do and he was more than thrilled to accompany me. When we weren't doing something that I planned we were usually being really lazy. That lazy time was filled with eating junk food, playing video games (of course), and cuddling and kissing.
One day, Sean had come into the living room and plopped down beside me on the couch lazily as I watched TV. I looked over at him and smiled. His eyes met mine and he smiled too, but weakly.
"What's wrong, baby?" I asked him as I wrapped my arm around his shoulders. He sighed.
"I'm bored, tired, and I don't want to go back to Ireland tomorrow. I just want to be put in a better mood, I guess." he told me as he gazed at whatever show what was on the TV, I've forgotten by now. I furrowed my eyebrows and thought about what we could do. I didn't want him to go back tomorrow either. We had had so much fun this past month or so, and I never wanted it to end. I didn't have anything planned for tonight considering Sean had to get some rest since he had to get up early so he could leave for his flight on time. He rested his head on my shoulder while I thought. His voice then brought me out of my thoughts.
"Can we watch one of your videos? Like, one of your really old ones." he asked me as he tilted his head upwards so our eyes could meet once again. I gave him a look and cringed and he laughed faintly at my reaction. He was now sitting straight up beside me.
"C'mon, please? I wanna watch baby Markimoo." he pleaded. I glared playfully at him for a second and ended up nodding my head. He jumped up and down on the couch and cheered like a little kid would. I chuckled at his cute little outburst and grabbed the remote so I could turn the TV to YouTube mode. I switched it over and searched my channel. I looked over briefly and saw the excitement in Sean's eyes as I skimmed through my videos until I found one from about 2 years ago and decided to click on it.
I remember rewatching this video before and I thought Sean might like it. Surely I didn't, it was my 24-year-old self that was bad at commenting on videos that I was watching over again. But for Sean, I would do it so he could watch it too. As it buffered for a moment, I felt Sean nuzzle himself into my side and and he wrapped his arms around my right one. The video started and I immediately wanted to puke.
"Hello everybody, my name is Markiplier and welcome to Calm Time, another game from GameJolt made by those lovely people down there and if you've seen 7 Days and I'm Scared, you'll definitely like this one because it is another pixelated style game." it started out with me saying my intro. Sean immediately tightened his grip on my arm and squealed, quite like a girl.
"Oh my GOD! You were so cuuuuute Mark!" he fanboyed over my appearance and the way my deep voice sounded back then. I smiled at him and shook my head.
"Oh, I was a real work of art back then, wasn't I?" I sarcastically suggested and he giggled at me.
The video went on for a while and Sean made small comments on either 'how cute I was' or 'how cute the way I played the game was'. I disagreed but of course, he loved every bit of it. Soon the one part where I accidentally killed the girl in the kitchen came up and I guessed that he sensed that something bad was going to happen because I felt him hold onto my arm tighter and straighten his posture a bit.
"... Oh wait a minute.. *laughs* Waaaiiit a minute.. 'Could you pass me the knife on the table, please? I'll cut the bread, so we can serve it.' Wait a minute.. Somethin' ain't right here.. Am I..? *stabs girl* OH MY GOD! OH NO! Oh n-! Oh no!" I bowed my head downward and closed my eyes shut tightly as I heard myself panic after I accidentally stabbed and killed the girl. I always regretted doing that but killing all the guests that were at the house was the objective of the game. I knew that as soon as I picked up the knife and noticed that I could stab things.
A few moments after that part was over I looked over at Sean and saw the fear in his eyes but for some reason, I still saw the excitement. He tore his gaze off of the young me playing the game on the screen and looked at the present me.
"That was hilarious, but also sad. That game is fucked up." he laughed. I started laughing with him.
"I agree. It gave me a weird feeling while playing through the rest of it." I admitted and he nodded. We awkwardly sat there for a second, Sean trying to focus his attention on my old video. A small smirk took place on my lips and I leaned over closer to his ear.
"There's a guest in my house right now. Should I go get the knife to cut the 'bread'?" I questioned him in a deep, dark voice. He slowly turned to me with wide eyes, but his mood lightened when I busted out laughing at his reaction. He started laughing, too, after I had fallen on the floor from laughing so hard.
"What the fuck was that, Mark?!" he asked me as he stood up and tried to help me get up from the ground. He managed to pull me to my feet but I was still a laughing, giggling mess.
"I have no idea but the look on your face- I just can't!" I eventually stopped laughing, (it went on for a while) and we both sat back down on the couch. This time, though, Sean told me to lay down and he crawled on top of me, wrapped his arms around my torso, and nuzzled himself into my chest. I wrapped my arms around him and held onto him tightly. We stayed like that through the rest of my video and when it was over, we just sat in the silence, only saying something when we wanted to. The lights were already off so we could fall asleep right there on the couch if we wanted to, but I wanted Sean's opinion first.
"Do you wanna sleep here or do you want to go to my room?" I asked him softly, as I brushed a piece of his hair out of his face. He groaned and answered me in a sleepy voice.
"I don't know.." he yawned and I knew he needed to go to sleep soon. I started to move my arms away from the grasp they held around his body and he let out another groan, but it sounded unhappy. He tried reaching for my arms but he couldn't find them that well since his face was buried in my chest and he couldn't see anything. I smiled and silently chuckled at him as he finally found my arms and wrapped them back around himself.
"Looks like we're staying here." I sighed happily and kissed his forehead. "Goodnight baby." I whispered and with that, he lifted his head. He glanced up into my eyes and brought his gaze back down to my lips and kissed them sleepily, but passionately.
"Goodnight, you goof." he mumbled afterwards and buried his face back in my chest. I smiled and soon fell asleep with the love of my life resting on top of me. Of course I didn't want him to leave, but at least I could think of our last night together before he left the next morning to bring me joy whenever I missed him.
