Water Worries

Jack's P.O.V.

"It's so hot here my god." I said and rolled up my sleeves a bit. "Yea I know. But you get used too it." He said and parked the car. "Yay we're here!! By the way what time is it, I'm so tired..." I said. "Bout 4 pm. Oh Yea I forgot you switched time zones. It might take you a while to get used to that." He said and got out of the car, I followed. "Eh whatever. Let's just get clothes before I die in this sweatshirt and pants." I said. "Alright let's go to 《INSERT MEN'S STORE HERE BC IDK ANY》is that cool with you?" He asked.

"Sounds good. Later can we go close to the water? I really wanna see it and feel it. It's the ocean. That's insane!" I said. "Yea, that's pretty cool Isn't it?" He asked as we looked out the water. Then i remembered something. "Mark? Aren't you scared of the ocean?" I asked him. "Whatttt? No of course I'm not----I am deeply afraid that a shark is gonna pop out and eat my face...." he said. "Mark there is less then a 3% chance a shark will pop out and eat your face. Okay listen, later I'm gonna help you get over your fear. But first I need to get clothes I won't sweat to death in." I said and we walked into the store.

Mark's P.O.V.

"You sure it looks okay?" Hr asked and looked at him self more in the mirror. "It looks fine Jack. I don't know why you so worried about how you look because you look fine!" I said. He turned his wrists over revealing many cuts up and down his arm. "This Isnt even the worst of my cuts mark and you think I look fine! I just--you know what? Nevermind. Your right. It's just my stupid depression controlling me. Sorry......" he said and looked down.

"It's fine Jack. I compleatly understand." I replied and looked at his chest, seeing his bones through the shirt. "Hey do you wanna get something to eat? I'm getting kinda hungry." I said. "Sounds good..." he replied and I could sense some relectlentness in his voice. "Wanna get pizza? There is a nice place down that way." I said and pointed to the right. "Sure let's go I guess..." he said and we started walking down the bored walk.

Should I like hold his hand or...? I don't know what to do or talk about or-- "Mark is the place you were talking about?" Jack asked. "Hmm? Oh yea this is the place." I said, knocked out of my trance of thought and we went inside the place. "Table for two please, by the window if possible." I said. "Right this way." The waiter said and brought us to a window table with a tremendous view of the sunset. "I'll be back to take you drink orders in a few minutes." He said and walked off. Me and jack both sat down at the table and looked at the sunset. "Danm....the sunsets here are insane." He said and took out his phone to take a picture. "I know. Pretty crazy how nature can show its self." I replied and watched him take a picture, the awe in his eyes.

It was adorable.

*Even more later bc ima lazy fuck*

"Mark are you ready to face you fear?" Jack asked. We were almost to the sand then a few more steps to the water. "Not really. I'm fucking terrifyed." I said. "Mark trust me, the water is fine. C'mon!" He said and took my hand and dragged me to the water. "Take you shoes off." He said and kicked his flip flops off. I did the same." Take your keys and phone out of your poket if you dont want it damaged." He said and took his phone out of his pocket and put it on his flip flops. I did the same. "Look, watch me." He said and pulled me a bit closer to the water. He stepped closer to it and stuck his feet in. "See? Nothing to worry about. Now, you try." He said and I walked a bit closer to him. I held onto his hand tighter and put one foot it. "It's colddd." I whined. "Stop being such a baby and get in here." He said and walked farther into the water, pulling me farther in with him.
