Eighteen: Gamomaniac

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Phil you've been working yourself too hard! Come take a break babe. Please? This isn't healthy." He whispers. I shake my head again. Dan swivels my chair around so I'm facing him.

He gives me the most adorable smirk and says, "Do it for me then."

How could I say no to that?

Dan grabs my hand and drags me to the couch so we can start the level. My mind was so preoccupied that I didn't even realize we were on Mario Maker instead of traditional Super Mario. I was completely oblivious to what was going on.

We played a couple levels together before Dan put his controller down.

"You play the next one by yourself love. I want to watch." He smiles. Still completely oblivious, I nodded and started the level.

As the level started I noticed that the first set of bricks was shaped like a letter. W.

I kept walking into the level and noticed that the rest of the bricks also look like letters.

W-I-L-L-Y-O-U-M-A-R-R-Y-M-E-?

Will you marry me?

I narrow my eyes at Dan who shrugged innocently. At the end of the lever there were two pipes. One was marked 'yes' and the other said 'no'. I smirked at Dan and began to move with the intent of going to the 'no' pipe. Dan grinned in amusement and gave me a look that said "I know you don't mean that". I giggled as I quickly sent Mario down the 'yes' pipe instead. It brought me immediately to the end of the level. As Mario slid down the flagpole, I planted my lips onto Dan's.

"You are such a dork." I whisper against his chapped lips.

"Oh shut up you love it." I roll my eyes and kiss him harder. I don't deny anything because I do love it. I really really do. I let out a small giggle.

"I guess you could say we're getting marryoed."

"Don't make me wish you'd gone down the 'no' pipe."

The next week, I'm walking down the halls of our flat. It's 9 am and I'm ready to have breakfast with Dan. I walk into the kitchen and I'm perplexed when I find that Dan isn't there. I notice a yellow post-it stuck to the fridge so I walk up to read it.

Phil-

I had to go get some things at Asda so I'll be gone when you wake up. I made you some pancakes, they're in the fridge just heat them up. Also there's a surprise waiting for you in the living room ;)

I'll be back soon. I love you!!
-Dan <3

I smile fondly at the note and go grab the pancakes from the fridge. I heat them up and poor myself a glass of Ribena before heading to the living room.

I'm almost scared half to death when I see a tall figure standing in front of the couch. I turn on the light and see that it's just a life sized cardboard cut out of Dan. A sign has been taped into his hands that reads: Will You Marry Me? I giggle and decide to play along.

"Why yes Dan of course I'll marry you." I say and hug the cut out. Dan then walks out from around the corner and grins at me. I fake scowl at him. "Who are you?" He looks puzzled but at the same time amused.
