You and Mark had an amazing dinner at the life cafe, and you both talked and laughed and filmed the entire time. Before you both got up to leave, Mark leaned in closer to you and spoke in a low whisper. "Hey can I tell you something?" He asks, his blue eyes staring intently into your Y/E/C eyes.
"Yeah." You say suspiciously, leaning in and whispering as well.
"I don't have any money, so we're gonna have to run out of here." He says with a light laugh. Your eyes open wide. "Mark!" You whisper shout, laughing slightly. "That's illegal!" You tell him. He shrugs. "I do it all the time it's okay." He tells you. You just roll your eyes.
"Plus it makes for great footage." He says, picking up his camera and smirking at you. You just laugh and make a face. "Fine." You say.
He smiles brightly at this. "Okay. On three." He starts. You almost laugh at his immaturity, but then realize he's being serious.
"One." He starts rolling his camera. "Two." He grabs your hand. "Three."
You both dash out the door, and you can hear your waiter yelling at you. "Hey! You didn't pay! I know where you live Mark!" By now you had both made it about a block away from the restaurant, but you stopped when you realized that the waiter hadn't chased you far.
Despite the fact that you hadn't run very far, you were still gasping for air, and laughing hysterically wasn't helping. "How did-did he know where you live?" You ask him. Mark smiles widely and laughs with you. "I go there a lot." He says. You both eventually calm down and head home, holding hands.
You make it to the apartment, and you suddenly realize how tired you are. You groan, not wanting to walk up the two flights of stairs to their loft. "Ughh its so far." You complain. Mark chuckles. "You can do it!" He says in a goofy voice.
You just groan again, before coming up with a great idea. You put on your best puppy dog eyes and turn to face Mark. "Will you carry meeeee?" You ask like a three year old, holding your arms out for him to pick you up. He smiles his cute smile and laughs at you. "Sure."
Well that was unexpected.
He picks you up bridal style and carries you up the two flight of stairs, without much difficulty. Which was surprising, because Mark didn't seem super strong. He stops at the loft door, but doesn't put you down. Instead he just opens the door with one hand and then kicks it closed. You smile and kiss him on the cheek. "You're the best." You tell him. He blushes and you remain in his arms until-
You hear a laugh from the other side of the room. What?! You turn your head and realize that April and Roger were already home. How long had you been out?! As soon as Mark realizes their presence, he puts you down, and you both straighten yourselves out, as you probably looked a little out of it.
Roger and April just laugh. "What are you guys doing home so early?" Mark asks, making his way over to them at the kitchen table. You follow.
"We finished dinner early and figured we'd come back here before the movie." April says, a smirk creeping up your face. "What were you two doing out?!" She asks suspiciously.
"Ummm. There was no food here...so we went to the life." You tell her. You swear her smile brightens with every passing second. "Mhmm." She says.
"That's the truth!" You tell her with a laugh. She just smiles back. "You two just seemed a little close is all." She tells you. You feel your face turning red. But you decide to act smooth.
"That's because we are close." You say, grabbing Mark's face and smashing your lips against his. He kisses you back and soon enough you hear April and Roger yelling and whooping. You smile and pull away, not letting go of Mark's hand.
April squeals. "I love you two together! I just knew it! I knew it! This is perfect you guys! We can go on double dates and we can do couple things together! AH!" She squeals once more, her red curls bouncing, and she hugs you tightly.
"Babe we should probably go." You hear Roger's voice. She just smiles. "Okay." She grabs his hand and waves before leaving the loft for the second time that night.
You look at Mark and sigh. He sighs at the same time. "That went better than I expected." He says. You laugh loudly at this, and he pulls you closer to him. "I love your laugh." He says. You smile. "I love you laugh too." You tell him.
He just smiles his adorable smile. You felt like there had been so much smiling and laughing in the past two days.
You really hope it stayed that way.
