(AU) Mark is a pizza delivery guy who just so happens to deliver pizza to his favorite youtuber
****
"Be careful out there, Mark. It's been snowing all day,"
Mark groans. "Why do you tell me that now when I'm just about to deliver my first order?"
"Have you not looked outside yet?" Kelsie asks, raising her eyebrows.
"I've been sleeping all day, Kels. I didn't know it's been snowing all day," Mark defends himself. "Whatever. See you in a bit. Pray for me." He grabs the pizzas, and then he takes a deep breath before heading outside into the cold. Mark shivers the second he steps outside.
It's freezing outside, and Mark hates delivering pizzas in the snow. It makes his job dangerous.
But, he needs the money right now. So, he has to suck it up and just do the job.
It's only supposed to take fifteen minutes to deliver his order, but it takes thirty minutes due to the snow and the roads being terrible, and Mark feels incredibly guilty that the pizza is probably cold by now. But, at least he can say that it wasn't his fault.
"Fuck this stupid weather," Mark mumbles to himself after grabbing the pizza from his car. He makes his way up to the door of the house, and knocks on the door with shaky hands. "Please, be quick." He's trying his best to remain calm as he's already late. He doesn't need this to add onto it.
The doors opens, and Mark gasps the second he sees who opened the door.
Scott Hoying.
Scott Hoying, the most popular youtuber on Youtube with over twenty million subscribers and counting, and not to mention Mark's idol. Mark's been watching his videos for six years. He's never got the chance to meet him at any conventions because he's never had enough money. But now, here he is delivering his pizza. It almost seems too good to be true.
"Holy shit, you're freezing-"
Mark blinks a few times when Scott speaks. "You're-"
Scott shakes his head, and pulls Mark into his house, shutting the door. "I'm so sorry for making you deliver pizza in this freezing weather. To be honest, I was too lazy to make anything myself,"
"You're Scott Hoying-" Mark blurts out, unable to stop himself from freaking out.
"What?" Scott asks, blinking a few times. "How do you- oh." He laughs. "You watch my videos?"
"I've been watching your videos for six years," Mark tells him. "Shit, I'm sorry. Here's your pizza. Ehm, apologies if the pizza is cold. It took longer than I thought it would to get here."
"That's okay, once again... it's my fault for ordering pizza when it's been snowing all day. The weather has been awful," Scott chuckles, taking the pizza from Mark.
"Yeah, tell me about," Mark mumbles, sighing softly.
Scott then pulls out his wallet and hands Mark forty dollars, which is twenty dollars over the actual price of the pizza.
"Sir, you just gave me forty dollars?" Mark asks.
"Don't call me, Sir. My name is Scott," Scott chuckles. "I know that I gave you forty. I made you drive all the way out in here the snow. So, it's only fair that I give you a tip."
Mark looks up at him with wide eyes. "Th-Thank you," he whispers.
"Besides, you're a viewer of mine. So, that's enough reason to tip you," Scott says.
"Wow. I never thought I'd actually get to meet you," Mark says, blushing. "The day started out crappy when I realized I would have to drive all over town in the snow, and then I meet you."
"Would you like to take a picture?" Scott asks.
"I-I shouldn't. I don't want to get in trouble with my boss," Mark says.
"You don't have to post it anywhere. Keep it to yourself for the memory," Scott says with a smile.
"O-Okay," Mark says before quickly pulling out his phone.
Scott takes his phone, and then he takes a couple of pictures with Mark.
"It was really nice meeting you, Mark. You know, you should stay for a little bit, enjoy some of this pizza. It's freezing out there," Scott says as he hands Mark his phone back.
"I-I would love that more than anything, but I really shouldn't. I have to get back to work. I don't want to get in trouble," Mark frowns.
"That's a bummer," Scott says. "That's okay. I'm sure we'll definitely be seeing each other again."
Mark blushes. "Thank you. For the tip... and everything," he says, walking over to the door.
"Be safe out there, Mark," Scott says, opening the door for him.
"Thank you," Mark says as he looks over at Scott, unable to hide the blush on his face.
Mark doesn't want to leave. He wishes he could stay and chat with Scott even longer, but he's already late to go back to work, and he can't risk getting fired when he needs the money right now.
Two Weeks Later;
"Mark, I need you to go on a delivery!" Kelsie shouts.
Mark groans. "Seriously? Right now?" He asks, walking up to his co-worker.
"Yeah, right now. It's a special request. Listen to this, 'I would like the cute boy named Mark to deliver my pizza', so it sounds like you have a little secret admirer," Kelsie grins at Mark.
Mark blushes. "It's not a secret admirer," he whispers, knowing exactly who sent the request.
Scott Hoying wasn't kidding when he said they'd be seeing each other again soon, and Mark has never been so excited to deliver a pizza before in his life.
