I woke to Jacks soothing voice. He was staring at me as I woke up, shaking me gently and whispering, "Mark.."

I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I just looked to him. I smiled and stood. He gave me a big hug and handed me a cup of tea.

I took a sip of the tea and it tasted perfect. I smiled and put it down on the night stand.

Jack suddenly pushed me back onto the bed and ran around it to the other side. He jumped in with me and covered me with blankets.

"Wh- what are you doing?" I giggled a bit.
He just smiled at me and hugged me in the bed.

He looked up at my face can't said, "Happy Birthday Markimoo" he smiled and put his head on my neck.

I looked down at him, completely surprised. "Wh-... Jack! I can't believe you remembered my birthday!" My smile grew and I wrapped my arms around him.

"Of course I remembered! Who would ever forget a birthday?" He laughed and starred at me with a big smile.

I looked to see what time it was. It was only 6:00 in the morning! I rubbed my eyes again and yawned.

There was a knock at the door and I made a motion to get up.

"I'll get it!" Jack yelled. He put his hand on my chest and jumped up out of the bed, excitedly.

When he returned, it was with a rolling cart filled with breakfast foods. Jack clearly noticed my smile and handed me a plate of waffles. I got up and ate at the table.

"Thank you Jack! You really didn't have to do this for me..." I said

"Yes I did! It's your special day! And I wanted to make it perfect!" Jack smiled and pulled a glass of orange juice from the second shelf of the rolling cart. He also grabbed a plate of waffles for himself and started eating.

We talked about today. The plan was, we were going to go to the high school the lady at the restaurant taught at. Then we would go to a karaoke bar and face time Matt and Ryan. After that, we would go to a movie and later go to the temple near our hotel.

The day sounded perfect, I couldn't wait until I was alone with Jack tonight. My heart started to quicken as he described the temple. It sounded very romantic.

"This sounds perfect Jack. Did you really plan this out?" He nodded and smiled with a proud smirk.

I checked the time. It was about time to leave for the High School. Jack realized what I was thinking and cleared our plates.

We both got dressed and showered. Once we were both ready we headed for the train to head to the school.

When we got there I could tell right away that this would be fun. A few girls passed, giving us looks.

The woman was waiting at the front door and waving at us. She had a big smile on her face as she invited us into the building to get checked in.

We had to switch out our shoes and try to find ones that actually fit our feet.

Jack learned the woman's name was Natsume-sensei. She was very nice and brought us both cups of green tea in the teachers lounge.

Jack talked with her for a while, trying to understand what they were going to be doing.

Once we were done talking, she brought us into the first classroom. There were rows and rows of kid sitting and watching us.

Some of them whispered to each other, and some giggled and pointed at our weird hair.

Time passes and mostly all we did was teach them basic English, things like holding an everyday conversation either about the weather or how to find a bathroom.

Jack was really excited about this trip, I was happy to see him with such a big smile. He smiled at every kid that came up to him.

I then realized how much I liked his smile. I could feel my face turn a different color and just grinned at the view.

I just roamed through thoughts floating in my head. I thought of every time I saw Jack smile. And all the times he made me smile.

I just gazed at him, not caring about the world around me. I looked at his green hair, and his perfect white teeth.

I think I'm falling in love.
