Mark woke up to complete silence. Which sometimes was normal, but he expected to hear Ethan being up and about. He glanced over at his bedside clock, and 7:45AM flashed at him. Oh that's why, Ethan probably is still asleep. Or he ran away.
Mark groaned as he stretched, and got out of bed. Chica popped up, her tail wagging excitedly as she followed Mark out of the room. He slowly walked over to the spare room, and peeked in. Ethan was asleep still as he expected he would be. Mark opened the door a bit more and Spencer stood up, cautiously walking over. "Hey buddy, c'mon let's eat." Mark says, gently petting him.
Spencer was a bit anxious with new things and Mark knew the change was probably a bit scary for him. Mark gently closed Ethans door and headed downstairs and took the dogs out to go to the bathroom before feeding them. As he was making eggs, Ethan woke up and made his way downstairs. "Good morning sleeping beauty." Mark says and Ethan laughed and yawned. "Thanks for taking Spence out. I slept in later than I wanted." He says and Mark slide a plate of eggs, bacon and toast in front of him.
"No worries, do you want coffee?" Mark asks and he got a nod in return. Once they both had their food, they went to sit down, eating quietly. It wasn't awkward, just too early to goof off at the moment. "We're only a day into quarentine and I already can tell I'm gonna be so bored." Ethan says as he finished off his eggs. "I am a joy and delight to be around, I'm offended." Mark says jokingly.
"Plus do you ever even go outside? Whens the last time you touched grass?" Mark asks jokingly and Ethan laughed loudly, almost choking on his coffee. "Listen here, I eat grass okay? So much." Ethan says and before he could realize what he had said Mark bursted out laughing and he followed. "I bet you do." Mark jokes, they chattered a bit as they finished up, and Ethan offered to clean up a bit as Mark got the camera and everything set up upstairs.
Filming together surpringly went well, Mark sent his video to his editor and then they filmed a video for Ethans channel. It was nice to film together too, they didn't make videos together often. "I have nothing to do, so I'm gonna go get an extra chair and I'm gonna bother you while you edit." Mark says seriously and then headed off, to probably fulfill his promise of getting a chair and bothering Ethan as he edited. They stood while doing today's videos, as they didn't play a game today though, Ethan wasn't too sure how that would work if they decided to do that. They'd get to that when they did he supposed.
After like 10 minutes of Mark being gone, Ethan figured it was a joke and chuckled to himself as he continued to edit, humming softly. He wouldn't have minded too much, company is always fine, even if it's being annoyed. Plus if he were Mark, he'd wanna relax anyways as they've been up here for almost over 7 hours already and Mark was already done with everything he needed to do so he couldn't blame him, he'd do the same. It was like 30 minutes later when the door opened and Ethan jumped a bit as he looked up to see Mark in fact did get a chair, and placed drinks and popsicles on his desk.
"I dunno about you but I'm thirsty and I need a snack." He says while sitting next to Ethan to watch him edit. "Awh fuck yeah." Ethan says while grabbing one. "Have you ever thought about getting an editor?" Mark asks while taking a bite of his popsicle, looking over at the hazel eyed boy. "I have, but I kinda like editing. Maybe later on down the line." Ethan says with a shrug and Mark nodded. Ethan hummed as he edited and Mark leaned back and enjoyed the light humming. They didn't talk too much but they didn't really need to really. Enjoying eachothers company was enough.
Plus Ethan got distracted easily and Mark wanted him to get it done so he didn't have to worry about it later. Otherwise he would genuinely bother him. "For someone who promised to annoy me, you're awfully quiet." Ethan jokes, and Mark looked at him. "I was gonna but I want you to finish what you're doing so you don't have to stress about it. Then I'm gonna bother you." Mark says and Ethan laughed, looking over at him. "How generous of you." Ethan smiles and turned back to the computer screen.
