I woke up to the sound of the TV. It took a minute for me to realize that I was on the couch. I then noticed that I had fallen asleep sitting up. I checked the time. 10:11 am.

"Good morning"

I chuckled.

"Good morning, mom"

"How are you feeling?"

"Kinda sore, not as worried about Sean though"

"That's good"

I nodded before remembering that there was supposed to be a video up by now. I sighed. I got up and went to my recording room then I turned on my computer and slipped on my headphones. I set up the camera and went through the games that I had downloaded that I could play. I picked a horror game then started recording.

Time Skip

When I got done recording some videos I shut everything off then looked at my phone to see a text from Sean. I looked at when he sent it and my phone said 38 minutes ago.

From: Sean
Hey I just landed I'm having my mom come get me to take me home

Just then my phone went off with another text from him.

From: Sean
I just got home. I'm gonna go to bed. I'll text you tomorrow.

From: Mark
Ok. I just read your other text. I was recording. Night Sean.

After I sent the text I put my phone in my pocket and went out to the living room to see my mom asleep on the couch. I looked at the time. 8:14 pm. I decided to go to bed as well. I went to my room and laid down. I put my phone on the table beside my bed. As soon as I sat it down it went off. I picked it up and saw a message from Sean.

From: Sean
I can't sleep

From: Mark
Why not?

Just then my phone started ringing with a call from Sean. I answered it.

"Because I miss you"

"I'm sorry"

"It's fine I guess. I just wish you were here"

"I know"

"Hey, Markimoo?"

"Mhm?"

"Would you sing to me? It might help me sleep. I love to hear you sing"

"Sure. What do you want me to sing?"

"I don't care. Anything"

"I wanna see you run
Anywhere you want
Never let the darkness hold you back
No fear of getting lost

I wanna see you fly
Way beyond the sun
Anything you're ever gonna dream
I pray that it will come

But if you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight

Where you wanna go
I'd love to take you there
Wish that I could make the road easy
I wish that life was fair
Don't wanna see you cry
Even when it rains
And I hope you don't forget this
You were born for better things

But if you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
With no strength to stand
I'm gonna reach for your hand
When the going gets rough right when it's hurting
I will be there to help bear the burden
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight

Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight

Anywhere you go
You're gonna find me
No matter what you need
If you ever fall down and you can't get back
If you lose your strength to stand

If you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
With no strength to stand
I'm gonna reach for your hand
When the going gets rough right when it's hurting
I will be there to help bear the burden
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight

Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight"

"That was nice. Ok I'm like half asleep now, thank you"

"Anytime"

"I love you"

"I love you"

Then I heard a click as he hung up and ended the call. I looked at the time 9:21 pm. I put my phone on the charger then laid it on the table beside my bed. I then went to sleep.
