Mark's POV:

"How are you doing?" I asked, sitting next to Jack on the couch. I looked over his shoulder and wasn't surprised to see he was reading the comments from the new video. 

"You know what? I'm okay." He turned his phone off and leaned back so he could see me. "I was a little worried at first but I guess the people who don't like us together just didn't watch the video."

"I'm glad you're okay. I can't stand seeing you upset." I moved around the couch to sit next to him and he rested his head on my shoulder. "I like it when you have a big smile on your face." He looked up at me, showing off his beautiful smile. I smiled back before gently kissing him.

We sat on the couch cuddling for what seemed like forever, just watching whatever was on T.V. Jack had moved so he was laying across the couch, his head resting in my lap. Most of the time, my eyes were on Jack instead of the show, watching my fingers brush through his hair. I saw his eyes slowly start to shut, so I quit playing with his hair.

"Why'd you stop?" Jack whined, looking up at me with a slight pout.

"Because you're falling asleep. Let's go to bed." I started to stand causing his head to fall off my lap.

"Ugh fine." He groaned before standing up himself. He started heading towards his room so I grabbed his hand to stop him.

"Aren't you going to come cuddle with me?" I practically whined.

"Of course. I just need to grab my pajamas." I reluctantly let go of his hand as he headed to his room. I walked to my own room, stripped down to my boxers and pulled sweatpants on. Jack walked into the room moments later, walking over to me and wrapping his arms around me, snuggling into my shoulder.

"I love you so much. You know that, right?" Jack said, sounding a little worried. I hugged him back tightly.

"Of course I know that. You moved all the way here, just to be with me. If that's not true love, then I don't know what is." He looked up at me with hope in his eyes. I leaned down, kissing him sweetly on the lips. "I love you so much, Sean, and I know you feel the same. Now, let's go to bed. We have a convention coming up in just over a week and we need to get videos prepared."

I led Jack to the bed, climbing in next to him and cuddling closely. I smiled as I fell asleep, wondering how I got so lucky. I have the job of my dreams, the man of my dreams, the life of my dreams, and I couldn't ask for anything more.

---------------------

The next week was spent recording and editing enough videos for the week we'd be gone for PAX East. Jack and I barely saw each other, which made the times we did see each other even more special. We always made time to eat together, talking instead of watching T.V. At night, when we would normally cuddle and fall asleep together, one of us would go to bed and fall asleep before the other finally climbed into bed. I hated not being able to see Jack as much, but I knew we'd get plenty of time to be together during and after the convention. 

We finally had more than enough videos two days before we were to leave, but Jack and I still wouldn't get much alone time. Felix wanted to come down and spend some time with us and then we were all going to fly to the convention together. He offered to stay in a hotel, but Jack and I weren't going to let him, so we gave him what was originally Jack's room. 

The morning of Felix's arrival, Jack and I just laid in bed, enjoying the chance to finally cuddle and be together. We didn't have to pick Felix up from the airport until after lunch, so we were in no rush to get out of bed.

"Hey, Mark?"

"Hmm?" I looked down at Jack, his head resting on my chest, one arm wrapped around my waist. I had one hand behind my head, the other holding Jack's free hand. 

"Would you maybe want to go do something today?" He asked nervously.

"Like what?" I questioned.

"I don't know. It's just...we haven't gone on a date in a while and I miss you."

"I'm right here, baby. I'm always here for you. If you want to go do something, then I'd love to." I slowly sat up, helping Jack up with me. I held him close for a moment before getting up and heading to the bathroom. "I'm just going to take a quick shower and then we can go. How about you think of something to do while I'm getting ready."

"Alright." I left Jack in the bedroom to get himself ready and hopped in the shower.
