*Mark's POV

I swung open the door, and took a deep breath. I exhaled and stepped outside. I  started a slow pace, walking down the suprisingly less crowded sidewalks. About 5 minutes later, I turned around, ready to head back. I had thoroughly thought and cleared my mind, but it was starting to drizzle. As I turned back, I felt someone brush my shoulder as they paced past. I looked up to see them turn to apologize. My lips curled into a smile as I identified them as Y/N. "Nice hoodie and beanie." I said, looking at the items with big printed septiceyes on them. She smiled and looked away. "Thanks.." She mumbled and giggled. I smiled at the sound. "Your giggle is cute, you should giggle more." She looked up at me, her cheeks pink again. "You think my giggle is cute?" She asked, timidly. "Of course!" I smiled again. "Well you'll probably hear it alot, I'm being a total fangirl right now.." I laughed with her at the joke. I had barely noticed it had started to rain  before she pointed out we should get going. I heard her grumble under her breath about the rain when I realised I still haven't moved. "O-OH here.. let me help!" I said, I rushed up to her and started to take off my jacket. "No, it's fine, you don't need to-" She insisted. "This is where I'm staying anyway.." She pointed to a house two away from mine. "Really? I live just there!" I pointed to my house.

*Your POV

 "Well it's getting pretty cold, Mark. Maybe we could go get coffee or something sometime?" I asked as I open my door "Sure!" He flashed his uneven smirk at me, making me giggle.. again. "Well, talk to you later." I nodded at him, and entered the house. Kaitlynn looked at me. "Where were you? You look soaked!" I shrugged and got into my tanktop, and cranked up the heater. It was pretty cold for L.A., even though it wasn't even raining that hard. I looked outside and saw the drizzle ease.

*One week later

Me and Mark were pretty comfortable with eachother now.. I should probably hang out with him, before we lose touch..

I looked back at my laptop and texted Mark on skype.

Y: You      M: Mark

M: ok cool. Be there in 5

I was looking for a clean hoodie when I heard Kaitlynn shout. "M-Mark's here!"

*Mark's POV

I knocked on the door, firmly. Kaitlynn appeared at the door and looked like she was gonna faint. "C-come i-i-n..." She gasped. I smiled. "You okay?" I asked.  "Y-yeah..." She smiled weakly. "... Mark's h-here!" She called out. I heard a distant "coming!" From another room. I stepped inside and slipped off my shoes.  I walked down the hall stealthily, looking for her. 'I wonder how pissed she would be if I scared her...' I snickered. I heard rustling from inside one of the rooms. 'This must be her room' I thought. I quietly opened the door, preparing to scare her. I gasped when I realized she was in the middle of changing shirts instead. I felt my face heat up dramatically. She turned to face me and I saw her eyes widen. Her face went beet red and she froze. She scrambled to cover her chest and bra. I turned around and shut my eyes "i-i didn't mean to- agh!" I walked out of the room and slammed the door behind me. I pressed my back against the wall and slowly slid to the floor, still recovering from the shock...  "Mark, it was an honest mistake." I heard her voice come from behind me. I turned to look at her. Her face was still a noticeable pink, but it was more subtle now. She sat beside me and patted my shoulder. "Let's just.. pretend that didn't happen." She smiled, slightly awkwardly, at me. I nodded and she stood up. "So, we gonna watch this movie or what?" I stood up next to her, trying to forget the whole clothes ordeal. "Psst... you won't tell Kaitlynn about this, will ya?" I whispered in her ear, using a lower voice then I meant to. She blushed and I saw her slightly shiver. "O-oh, no way." She giggled hesitantly. I stepped away realizing how close our faces were. "Hey! Get in here!"
