Why Normal People Scare Me Part 5

We stayed like that for five minuets. I think that both of us were too scared to move."Mark?" " You can put me down now.." I finally said my voice was clearly full of sadness. When Mark put me down, you could tell he was sad about it too. I walked over my new hoodie and put it on. It fit me perfectly.Mark must have walked into the kitchen because he wasn't in the living room anymore. I walked into the kitchen to see Mark leaning against the counter with his head down. I walked toward him and put my arms around his neck and started to hug him gently. "Jack, you don't have to make me feel better." "I hate it when you're in pain," I said quietly. Mark buried his head between my shoulder and my neck. I swear I felt him kiss that area softly. I laughed and began to say, "Mark what..."

My phone suddenly went off when I was going to ask him if he did. My dad was calling me, I didn't want to answer it but, I did anyway. I whispered to Mark, "It's my dad." He started to shout at me over the phone to the point where I had to remove the phone from my ear. I know that Mark had heard because his sad expression turned into pissed off. Mark grabbed my phone and started to defend me, yelling back and everything. I just basically ran into the living room and buried my face into a pillow screaming because I knew that my dad was going to murder me when I got home. Mark must have hung up because I didn't hear anymore yelling. I heard him walk in front of where I was laying and I sat up with my head in my lap. "Jack?" "Are you going to be okay?" Mark asked me innocently. I looked at his eyes for a second giving him the death stare which caused him to smile. I put my head back in my lap and he asked, "On a scale from one to ten how screwed are you if you go home today?" I screamed loudly. Mark burst out into laughter and said, "Okay then, stay with me!" I started to smile and put my head up and hugged Mark and of course I said yes (mostly because he's adorable.)

"Wanna watch another movie?" "Not if it's another horror movie ya doof!" I said quietly. "Why are you never completely yourself around me? Mark asked. I thought, "Couldn't harm anything if I was, right?" "Well, Mark there are certain reasons for that, that will soon be answered!" He looked at me weird and said, "Okay then... What's your favorite color?" "Mark, if you would look at my hair more closely, you would see that it's green!" I replied. "What are we going to do now Markimoo?" I asked excitedly. "How about another horror movie? I know how much you love them!" He said while half laughing. "No! They're evil little barrels!!" I said at my normal volume which is actually quite loud. Mark looked at me and said, "What did barrels ever do to you?" "Oh you know, they just jump scared me a thousand times!!!!" We both started laughing our asses off and I tackled him. When I was on top of Mark he tickled me which caused me to scream and fall over. We had a weird, stupid tickle fight for five minutes straight.

We finally stopped and we were laying on the floor side by side. I grabbed Mark's hand and he looked at me smiling and he blushed (which caused me to.) He let go of my hand sat up and said, " Wanna go play video games?" My eyes went larger and my smile grew as soon as he said that. "I was asking all day for you to ask that!" He laughed and pulled me up. "Where are they?" I asked. "They're upstairs in my room.' I could feel myself start to blush again (dammit.) "Ughhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's too far away!!!!! Carry me!!" I said trying to be seductive yet playful. It must have worked because Mark lets out a nervous laugh and blushed a darker shade of red. "Fine! I'm only saying this because you're a cute potato!" He replied. I jumped on him back and wrapped my legs around his waist. Mark started to run up the stairs. "Don't you dare drop me!" I yelled at him nervously. "Wouldn't dream of it." he replied. He stopped running when he was in front of a door (his bedroom.) He opened the door, walked in and closed the door. I got off of his back and he walked over to a pile of video games. His room was literally based on video games and he had a recording station. "I didn't know you recorded Mark." "Yeah I just.. don't think they're good enough so I never post them." I looked over at him and said, "Can I watch them please?" I asked while giving my best puppy eyes. "Sure thing Jack, anything for my little Irish potato." He walked over to his recording station and sat down in his roll chair thingy. I walked behind him while he was pulling up one of his videos. The first one he started to show me was a Five Nights At Freddy's video. "Do you want to sit on me so you don't get scared Jack?" Mark asked in a playful way. "Actually, yes I do." I said. I walked by him and sat on him. He hit play on the video and wrapped his arms around my waist.

I couldn't stop laughing for like, ten videos straight! He really is good. I was laughing so much Mark paused the current video we were watching. After I finally stopped laughing, leaned my head back on his shoulder and turned to look at him. His smile is amazing I thought to myself and blushed. Mark started blushing soon after I did but his was worse. It was a deeper shade than mine probably was. I was curious of why he was blushing so violently. Leaned forward and Mark removed his arms from my waist. I looked back at him and asked, "What are you thinking?" He gave me a look that basically said, "Please anything but that." "Nothing." is what he said while turning away from me. "Want to play some games now?" He asked giving me a quick smile. I nodded my head to say yes and I got off of his lap. He got up, grabbed his laptop and walked over to his bed and sat on it. "Come here Jack." He said patting the space right next to him. I went over and sat next to him and he pulled up some games on his laptop that were multiplayer.

After a while, I could tell that something was bothering Mark still. He was winning the current game we were playing, I couldn't even remember what it was called. "Do you want to stop for a while?" He asked. I nodded and he saved our progress. He got up to put his laptop back on his desk and I fell back on his bed. I closed my eyes and I felt Mark sit back down beside me. "What are you thinking?" I asked him again in a more quiet voice. He laughed and I sat up and looked directly into his eyes. "I guess you aren't joking.." Mark said nervously. "It's hard to explain what I'm directly thinking.." He said letting his gaze travel to the floor. "I want to know," I responded. Mark's eyes locked into mine. He said in probably the most seductive voice, "But I can show you." "Mark, what does that even....." Was all I had the chance to say. Mark scooted closer to me and he put his hand on the back of my neck and pulled me into a kiss. I was pissed when he pulled away and I smiled. "You did it wrong." Was simply all I said and quickly, I shifted my position so I was on top of his lap. I wrapped my arms around his neck and we started to make out.
