It's S-E-A-N (Septicplier)

I Thought I'd Never See You Again

This time when Mark woke up next to Sean, it wasn't a different person, it wasn't a dream, and it wasn't a fantasy. It was real. Mark cuddled into him, breathing in his scent. Sean smiled happily, knowing that this was good and it was going to stay good...or would it? The two headed off downstairs after getting dressed to go make some breakfast when there was a knock out the door. The last time somebody knocked, Chris came back into Sean's life so, Mark answered the door.
"What do you wan- Oh!" Mark cut himself off when he realized who was actually at the door was not Chris but Parker. "Hey Parker, what can we do for you? Do you want to come in?" Parker nodded and Mark moved aside and let them come in. Parker fidgeted nervously.
"What's up, Park? Something wrong?" Sean asked.
"N- Well yes. Two things actually." Parker started.
"Okay, shoot." Sean sat down and gestured for Parker to do the same. Parker sat down and took in a nervous breath.
"I don't feel like a Parker anymore." They started. "Actually, I didn't really feel like a Parker to begin with." Parker explained. Mark and Sean nodded along. "See, but I still don't know what I feel like." They told the two guys sitting down in front of them. "I just wanted to tell you guys because you've been so supportive of me. Plus, I've already told Craig."
"And he took it well, I presume?" Mark asked. Parker nodded.
"What should we call you now?" Sean asked Parker.
"For now, you can keep calling me Parker until I can figure a name out." Parker told them. Sean and Mark nodded and gave a smile.
"Okay, we can do that!" Mark exclaimed and brought an arm around Parker.
"Okay, so what else did you want to talk to us about?" Sean asked.
"Well, I met this guy at your party and we really hit it off. The only problem is he had to leave to go pick up his little sister and I never got his number." Parker explained.
"So, you want helping finding him?! Sean asked hopefully, clutching his hands to his cheek. 
"Yeah! Please?!" Parker pleaded. Sean nodded his head furiously. He grabbed Mark's iPad from the table beside them.
"This had a list of all the people on it who was invited to the party. He will be on there." Sean said triumphantly. "What's his name."
"Kodi, but it's spelled K-O-D-I." Parker explained.
"Gee, Mark would have a hard time spelling that one." Sean thought back to how they first met. "Okay, let me find you your man."
"One, small problem." Mark stopped Sean. "I never invited anyone to the party with that name, nevertheless know anyone with that name." Mark confessed. Parker and Sean both frowned.
"But..." Parker's lip jutted out in sadness.
"Does that mean that-"
"Someone else invited him, yeah." Mark finished.
"Well, what do we do now?" Sean asked.
"I'd start calling the people on the list that I actually did invite and see if they invited a Kodi." Mark offered up. Sean and Parker nodded and got to work calling close to a hundred numbers. It took them all day and at the end of it, they had nothing to show for it. Nobody had invited Kodi. How he ended up at that party, nobody knew. Parker slumped down on the couch. They were defeated, they all were.
"How did nobody know Kodi?" Parker asked. Mark shrugged.
"Maybe he heard about it in passing?" He offered up.
"Or maybe he was invited by a friend of a friend." Sean said and then it hit them. If that was true, it would be almost impossible to track Kodi down. Parker made a pained expression out of their throat and collapsed on the couch. Sean sighed and rubbed Parker's back. "It's oka-" The doorbell rang. Mark got up and answered it. On the other side, a man stood.
"Hi, I know this might sound strange but I was at a party here on halloween night and I met this person and they were the most amazing person I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and I-"
"Kodi?" Parker stood up and walked to the door.
"It's you, it's really you! I thought I'd never see you again so I came here thinking maybe the host would know you and here you are." Kodi explained.
"Are you kidding, I've been calling party guests all day looking for you." Parker breathed out. "And now you're here." Mark and Sean walked into the other room to give the two some privacy.
"Well, now that I'm here let me give you my number so we don't lose touch again but first I wanted to ask you on a date. Do you want to, that is?" Kodi smiled sweetly. Parker nodded furiously.
"Yes, duh! Of course I do!" Parker threw themselves in Kodi's arms and kissed him.

Mark and Sean were in the kitchen peeking in on the two in the living room. Sean smiled as the two kissed.
"Young love, remember what that looked like?" Sean swooned dramatically. Mark rolled his eyes.
"Hey, we're still young." Mark protested and grabbed Sean by his waist.
"Nope, You're an old man." Sean turned his head away from Mark in mock disgust. Mark rolled his eyes and started attacking Sean's neck in kisses. Sean squealed in laughter and struggled against Mark's body. The two froze and looked deeply into each other's eyes.
"I love you." Mark smiled.
"I love you too." Sean smiled back and kissed Mark passionately. The two were happy, but all of it had been too good for too long. It was destined to change. The lovebirds were interrupted by the ringing of a phone. Sean pulled away from Mark to look down at his phone. It was a number he didn't recognize. Sean brought the phone up to his ear. He froze at the words he heard next.
"Hey, Seany Baby, it's me, Chris."
