Sacred Madness

XI. Euphoria

The ceiling looked more and more interesting as time went by inside Mark's bedroom. He was lying still in his bed, smiling uncontrollably as he thought of a certain brown haired boy.

Suddenly, his phone rang and Mark has never been so excited about answering someone's call. He quickly took the phone out of his pocket but he was so disappointed to see that its not who he was expecting it to be.

"What do you want Kris?" Mark said annoyed.

"Let me guess. You're expecting someone else's call?" The boy laughed at the other line to which Mark didn't reply. "And this someone is my brother, yeah?"

"None of your business"

Kris laughed again and it annoyed his friend so much. "I'm bored," he said after he stopped laughing. "I want to beat up someone. Lets find new client"

"Go fuck that woman who haven't paid yet" Mark suggested.

"She's horrendous man. I can't even imagine sleeping with her. She might have herpes," Kris replied disgusted at the thought of the woman.

Mark sighed, he was so over with this call. "Go watch porn or something."

"Fuck you Mark," Kris replied pissed.

"I'd rather fuck your brother," Mark snickered, which made the other boy more irritated.

"Motherfucker" he yelled before ending the call abruptly.

Mark laughed at his friend's stupid antics as he was left staring at an insignificant picture of some foods as his lockscreen. A smile form at the corners of his lips as he unlocked his phone revealing the new wallpaper he just set up few hours ago. Of course it was that picture of him and Gun that they took earlier. "P'Gun youre so cute," he said smiling like crazy.

As if on cue, Mark's phone rang for the second time and it was finally the one he was anticipating all night.

"Hello P'Gun," he greeted overenthusiatically that it sounded really cringy.

"Hello N'Mark," Gun replied with the same cheerful voice that he always had. "Thank you for earlier and sorry again if I always bother you."

Mark shook his head in disagreement. "I've told you before, its not a bother so don't mention it."

Gun stayed quite for awhile, hesitating. "Is there any way I can pay you back? I can buy you ice cream if you want?" He paused when he realized he doesn't have enough money and Mark might not want to eat cheap things. "Sorry that's all I can afford. I know you can buy it for yourself if you want to."

Gun's voice was filled with embarassment which made Mark smile stupidly at the thought of how adorable the brown haired boy must have looked at the moment. "I want to eat ice cream," he said, pausing for a bit. "With you." Mark's stupid smiling face became stupider as he felt the heat spread throughout his chest, making his cheeks blush crimson.

"Really?" Gun's excitement radiated from the other line.

"Yeah. So do you have plans tomorrow?" Mark asked trying to sound cool but failing miserably.

"We have training for the whole day."

"How about on Sunday?" Mark sounded hopeful. He wanted to ask him out right at this instant if he could but he knew Gun's parents were strict.

"Hmmm?" Gun thought for a while before answering. "I'll attend the early mass so I'm free in the afternoon."

"What time do you go to church?"

"Usually before 6."

"Can I go with you?" Mark asked almost instantly. He wants to spend time with him so bad he's willing to wake up at 5am. The thought of spending the whole day together with his Phi was just so exhilarating for Mark.
