"Hey Marky Mark!" Seán blurted out as soon as he answered Mark's Skype call. "Hey Seán! How have you been?" Mark's day brightened instantly just by hearing the man's cheery voice. "Uh, pretty good, I mean I've been better but...good! Are you doing okay? You hardly Skype me at 9 in the morning. You just text me." Seán was actually very concerned for his best friend. "Yeah, just... I don't know. Days are going by slowly, y'know?"

"Completely understandable!" Seán said truthfully, but he knew there was still something off about him. There was a silence between the two for a few moments. "So why did ya call, Marky?"

"I don't know, just wanted to see your cheery, Irish ass again." Mark chuckled at his comment. Seán loved it when Mark smiled. It reminded him of how much he actually misses hanging out with Mark in L.A., or when they would go to PAX together. Seán sighed deeply. "You okay buddy?"

"Yeah, I'm good. Just missin the good ol' days with ya." Mark felt a little guilty for not being able to get to Seán the past few months. Maybe he could think of some way to make it up to him soon. Mark smiled at the thought. "What ya smiling about, doof?" Seán asked, curious. "I was just thinking, maybe I could make up these past few months that I haven't got to hang out with you." Seán smiled widely and clapped his hands together multiple times. "Really?! You'd do that for me?"

"Sure! I miss not being able to hang out with my best friend."

"Okay, well when would you think I could come?", Seán asked, looking around his recording space. "Soon, my friend! Soon.", Mark smiled and ended the call. Seán just sat there wondering why he did that. "What are ya up to now, cherry head?", Seán asked himself quietly, giggling.

Boy, was Mark excited to have Seán come back to his place again! He made sure everything was tity before going online and buying a ticket for Seán. He smirked to himself and said, "Soon my friend. We are going to have a fun time, and make up every second that I didn't get to with you." Mark e-mailed Seán the plane ticket, hoping he wouldn't mind. His stomach growled loudly, as if he hasn't been eating for days. The fact that he just woke up and called Seán right away, distracting him from eating that morning. He ran downstairs, into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator searching for food. Mark scrunched up his nose and slouched as he knew he had to go shopping again. Running back upstairs to get dressed, he heard his phone buzz on the table. Stopping at the bottom of the stairs, he turned around and started towards his phone, picking it up. -"Seán"- read the lockscreen. Mark smiled a little and unlocked his phone reading Seán's message. -"You bought me a plane ticket already?! But, I mean I could have bought one myself, silly!"- Shaking his head slightly at the message, as he was still grinning, replied. -"No no! It's fine, Jack! I wanted to buy you one myself. It's my treat. :)"- He set his phone back down on the table attempting to go get dressed again. He managed to find himself a dark blue, short-sleeved shirt and some jeans. Grabbing a jacket before he exited his room, he shut the door on his way out. The YouTuber went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and fix his hair. After about a good 5 minutes, he made his way down the stairs, enjoying his silence. Grabbing his keys from the counter, he also grabbed his phone and clicked the power button to see if Seán has answered. Instead, Mark had a missed call from him. He just walked out the door, locking it, going out to his black vehicle.

He decided he was going to call Seán back and dialed his number. Four rings go by before he heard a familiar voice. "Hey Mark!"

"Hey bud, sorry I missed your call earlier. I was getting dressed so I can go pick up some groceries.", he explained starting the car and pulling out of his driveway. "Ohh, okay! Well, it's fine, just wanted to talk to you about this whole ticket situation."

"Shoot."

"Okay well, my first question is are you sure you want me to come?"

"Yes, Seán! Why wouldn't I? If I didn't, why would I have bought you a ticket?"

"I don't know. Well thanks, another question is how long will I be staying?"

"As long as you want, but I would also say a month is probably maximum." Mark pulled into the parking lot of Walmart, searchimg for a spot to park. "Wait, what happened to as long as I want?" Mark heard Seán laugh slightly in the backround, which made him grin. "Well I mean as long as you want in a whole month, better?"

"Yes, thank you. Anyways, okay! Will I be able to record with you by any chance? I just don't want to have the hasstle of recording so much here and be tired by the time I get to your house." Thinking of that made Mark get all giddy inside. "Of course! I'd love for you to record with me!"

"Good because I was going to anyways, heh!"

"Alright, well I'll let you go so you can pack."

"Whoa, my plane ride isn't until next week though!"

"Well fine, I'll put it this way. I kind of have to carry groceries out to my car."

"Gawh! Alright, well see ya, Markimoo!"

"Bye, Jackaboy!" Mark hang up and picked up all of the bags and headed out. He was still starving so he just decided to stop by McDonald's and order. He has never been so happy in a long time. He couldn't wait for Jack to come to L.A.!
