Mark P.O.V
John was walking when I spot him. I drove up to him; and he smiles. I roll down the window.
"You need a ride?" I ask.
"Of course" John laughs.
He gets on and we drove to a restaurant. We sat down; ordered out drinks. We sat there for a few seconds and we got our drinks.
John was looking at me; like if he was focusing on me. I gave him a smirk.
"Sorry…I was just thinking…" John said
"About…?"
"Oh…you might think it's funny or stupid…" said John
"No…come on let's hear it" I smirk.
John breathes in and out. "You remind of somebody…I mean you look just like him"
"Like who?"
"Like…umm…what was his name" John tries to think but he snaps his fingers. "Marcus…"
I gave him wide eyes. My world went crazy. I didn't say anything or move. All I did was concentrate on him. John knows who Marcus is.
"Mark…you okay?" he asks.
"I…umm…fine" I manage to say. Our food then comes. As we ate; I look at him. "How do you know Marcus…?"
"He was a friend…" said John "Do you know him?"
"Yes…" I said
"Oh…" said John "Were ya'll friends…."
I couldn't answer. I don't know if I should tell him.
"He…was a friend of mine…" I said
"You guys look so alike…" John said
I nod. I should tell him.
"I'm…his brother"
"Oh…" said John "Well no wonder"
"Yup…" I said "I haven't heard from him"
"Me neither…" said John
I stare at him. He looks like he is hiding something but what? I think he was the one; maybe Marcus was about to give him the necklace.
"Well…enough about him" I said
"True…Umm so what do you like to do" ask John.
"I like to just hand around…" I said "But I like to work with motorcycles"
"Awesome…" he said "I never rode one before but I heard it's pretty amazing"
"It's awesome…you feel so free when you drive one"
"Well…I will never know the feeling because I can't drive one"
"Well…I'll show you one day" I said "How about you?"
"I like to sing" said John "And work out at the gym"
"You like to sing?"
"Yes…" said John "I know it's weird but…I really like to sing"
"I don't think singing is weird"
"Really...?"
"I think it's a talent" I smirk. John blushes and went on to eating. "Since when did you start singing?"
"When I was little" John said "I just got a microphone and bam…I'm a good singer"
"That's good…"
John cell phone rings and he answers it.
"Yes…"
I went ahead and eat. John was talking and was nodding until he sighs. He hangs up and looks at me with sadness.
"My grandpa…" he starts "He is…umm…being funny and he doesn't want to get inside"
I smile at him. "Go ahead…"
"How about tomorrow?" he asks.
"Sure…I'll see you tomorrow"
John smiles and walks off. I finish eating my food and paid for it. I head towards the bar to get to work.
I walk in to see Glen talking with someone. I walk up and scare him. He jumps up and yelps as I just laugh.
"Really?" he said with anger.
"Yup…" I smirk.
I went up to the man he was talking to. He smiles as he gave me a wink.
"Oh…this is Randy"
"Hey there…" I said "I'm Mark…"
"Sup…good looking"
I smirk and went on to work. Later in night people started singing and dancing. I just watch them have some fun.
