It was a normal day. In fact, it was a great day. I uploaded my usual two videos today and I'm now watching some random video on Mark's website. Obviously one of his Unnecessary Censorship's, knowing me. I wasn't really paying attention. I found myself staring at his face and I rolled my eyes. Its not like he'll know. He's halfway across the world! You have to get a hold of yourself, Sean.I quickly logged out and turned off my computer, standing up to stretch. Oooh, that felt good! I cracked my neck and grabbed one of my light jackets, heading for the door. Maybe I'll go get some ice cream. There's a store right down the street. And I'll be right back. I glanced at my computer one more time before sighing and walking out of my house, locking the door behind me with a firm slam. Not too hard, though.

Halfway to the store, my phone started ringing. I was shocked by the sudden call because, frankly, I don't get that many calls. I quickly answered it without looking at the Caller ID. I found myself hoping I'd hear his gentle, low voice on the end of the line.

"Hey, Jack. It's Bob." My heart sank. "Um, it's Mark's birthday Saturday. We were kinda hoping you'd come over to celebrate. You know, since we're all buds and... stuff." I could hear the nerves in his weak chuckle.

"Yeah, sure!" I said, a little bit too eagerly. "I'll take the next plane." I smiled to myself.

"Great! See ya there!" The line ended with a soft click. I was grinning like a maniac. What should I get him? But then, I started to doubt myself. Maybe I shouldn't go. Maybe I should stay here in Ireland. What if he doesn't want to see me? That'd be embarrassing... I sighed and shook my head. I had already said yes. I can't leave them high and dry. And besides... My channel could wait a little bit. Although I feel bad about it...

Well, there goes Chapter One! ^^
