when he kisses your lips: day 12
upon reaching your apartment, you turn to face mark.
you both laugh shyly and mark signals for you to continue.
“thank you for today, i really enjoyed myself,”
mark completely ditches what he was about to say, holds onto your waist firmly, not letting you move. he leans in quietly. you pull away and cheekily say, “save it for next time,” in which he frowned jokingly as you walk away. he stands by the gate, watching you struggle to open your door as your hands tremble, you can’t believe he tried to kiss you. mark, flustered, lets out a sigh. just as you unlock the door successfully, you take a peek behind to see him walking towards his car. the voices in your head scream at you, why did you pull away? you run forward and with a thud you pin him onto his car, “now’s the time,”
mark never forgets how he smiled like an idiot when you both pull away.
when he kisses your forehead: day 48
“dude, she’s been here since 10pm,”
mark pushes the door open slowly, only to find you sleeping soundly on the couch of the recording studio. he kneels beside the couch and pushes hair out of your face. it’s one of the many times where mark just takes a second to stare at you. he fishes out his phone and snaps a few pictures of you sleeping, it’s pictures like these that keep him going when you’re not around. mark’s eyes soften, as he goes in for a kiss on your forehead. his movements seem to have disturbed you.
mark’s thankful, for all the times you waited.
when he kisses your cheek: day 93
his hand snakes under the sheets over your waist, pulling himself closer to you. you try to open your eyes but they stay shut. what time is it? your hand moves towards mark’s but he removes his hand and you feel the bed tilt as he gets up.
“did i wake you up?” mark chuckles, he moves back on the bed, trying to put a sweater on. gently tugging the hem of his sweater, you whine “where are you going?”
“to practice y/n, it’s wednesday” mark places your hand in his and lies down beside you. “go back to sleep y/n, it’s still so early” mark tries his best to pacify a whiny y/n. “stop whining, i’ll be back soon,”
you spend the entire morning thinking about him.
when he kisses your hand: day 127
sitting in the corner of his room, mark has earphones in his hands, which he doesn’t stop twisting and pulling. the poor earphones are about to break, but all he can think of is how to get you to stop ignoring him. you’ve been giving him the silent treatment for the past half an hour, yikes. well, it’s the second time he has forgotten about your date. this time, you waited for an hour, assuming his phone had died and he didn’t actually forget about the date because he promised not to.
now you’re in his room, unwilling to talk to him after finding out he spent the entire afternoon taking a nap.
“y/n” mark gets up and calls for you in a whiny voice. his sudden courage makes you think he can tell you’re no longer angry. though he dives into your embrace, your eyes stay fixated on your phone screen. mark hides his face in your abdomen but you remain unmoved. so he takes your phone away and brings your hand to his lips, “forgive me?”
mark loves the subtle smile you try to hide when he whines.
when he kisses your neck: day 195
with a remote in your hand and a bowl of popcorn in the other, you lay on the sofa, waiting for mark to come back. you glance at the clock; 8pm. he’s coming soon, right? after loading the movie, you rush into the room to grab a large blanket- you could use some cuddling with mark.
finally, mark unlocks the front door and lets go of his bag, leaving it beside the entrance. the air suddenly becomes tense and you have no idea what’s going on. staying silent to your excited “i miss you”, mark drops himself on the couch and invites himself under the blanket. almost instinctively, your hands go around him to pull yourself closer to him.
you immediately feel mark sobbing in your arms, he’s shaking, and you’re confused. “it’s okay, take your time,” you mutter as you start rubbing his back, resting your head on his.
still sobbing, mark looks up and mouths against your neck, “thank you,”
you’re thankful, for all the times mark has opened up to you.
when he kisses your shoulder: day 271
it’s one of those days again, where mark becomes clingy. clingy mark also means whiny mark, but you’re not complaining. putting your hair up into a bun, you dash back into the kitchen to check on your soup. mark’s been working hard, so you decide, why not cook something for him? just as you start adding the tomato slices into the soup carefully, you feel mark pounce onto you.
“mark! i’m cooking,” you try to shake him off but to no avail, he clings onto you and rests his chin on your shoulder. “you’re not giving me enough attention,” you can almost hear him pout. you chuckle to yourself, how can one not love him?
“what’s so funny?” mark kisses your shoulder and hides his face in your back.
mark’s amazed, the crazy things he feels when he’s with you.
when you kiss him: day 365
“happy one year anniversary, mark”
