This is for all you Steven Universe fans out there.

"I could even learn how to love."

You were sitting on the couch, scrolling through twitter. You were down a serious rabbit hole! Somehow you went from looking through Ian Hecox's tweets to looking at Barack Obama's?

Mark was out. He didn't even tell you where he had went! His exact words were;

"I'm going out, no questions asked."

You trusted Mark, so you didn't ask any questions. He was gone for almost an hour. You were just about to call him when you heard noises coming from the front door...

You quickly grabbed the baseball bat you kept hidden in the bedroom closet and zoomed to the door. Your heart pounding furiously, you opened the front door, ready to swing at whatever was making the strange noises.

As you were about to swing, you heard a familiar voice;

"(Y/N), no! It's me, Mark! Don't swing!"

"Mark? What... what was all the noise about?" You asked. Mark reached behind him and pulled a large rectangular box to the doorway.

"It's a keyboard!" Mark smiled. You sighed;

"Mark, you already have a keyboard for your computer! You just bought one-"

"No, no, (Y/N). It's a piano keyboard." Mark said, cutting your sentence off.

"Why would you go and waste your money on a keyboard, Mark?" You asked, curious. Mark was already setting the damn thing up.

"Because, I found a song on the internet and I think you'll like it." He said, smirking.

"What song?"

"It's from Steven Universe."

Your face immediately lit up. Steven Universe was one of your favorite cartoons of all time! You watched every episode and knew every song. You even knew stupid facts!

"Oh my God! What song?!" You asked excitedly.

"You'll see." He smiled. He began to press the keys randomly, then with a few knuckle cracks he began to play.

You knew the song! You just couldn't put your finger on it.

That's when Mark began to sing;

"If I could begin to be, have of what you think of me; I could do about anything... I could even learn how to love..."

Damn it! Why didn't you know the name of the song?!

"When I see, the way you act: Wondering when I'm coming back, I can do about anything; I could even learn how to love-"

"Like you." You sang along, finally remembering the song.

That's when you and Mark unknowingly began to sing together;

"I always thought I might be bad, now I know that it's true; Cause I think you're so good... and I'm nothing like you!"

"Look at you go-" Mark sang.

"I just adore you-" You sang.

"I just wish that I knew-" Mark sang.

"What makes you think I'm so special..." You sang. (ON KEY TOO GOOD JOB BRO!)

You both began to sing together again;

"If I could begin to do, something that did right by you; I could do about anything... I could even learn how to love..."

Mark signaled for you to stop singing so he could sing this part on his own;

"When I see, the way you look, shaken by how long it took; I could do about anything... I could even learn how to love... like you."

All of this, and he didn't take his eyes off of you... Not even once.

Mark pulled you into a passionate kiss.

"What makes you think I'm so special?" You asked him after breaking the kiss.

He didn't answer, though. He just kept staring into your eyes. You felt like he was lost in them.

He traced his fingers all across your face, not breaking eye contact once.

"You care about me." He finally said.

"What?"

"That's what I think makes you so special."

You couldn't help but tear up;

"Fuck, Mark." You said, wiping the fallen tears.

"Come here, you." He said, pulling you in to his arms.

With your body in his arms, you hoped he would never let go.
