Chapter Text
“star wars?” mark asked, giving tom a weird look. “really?” look, mark had seen star wars before and did not understand the hype but tom was literally shaking in his shoes with the movie in his hands.
“yes. i want this one.” tom replied, not taking his eyes off of the movie.
mark shrugged, “okay.” the two of them walked up to the counter and paid for the movie.
“this movies pretty popular, or the series i guess, heard there’s a new one coming out soon.” the cashier said, handing it back over.
“next year! i am super excited for it.” tom smiled, taking the movie quickly. “i heard that its a prequel to this series.”
“that’ll be interesting. do you know who is starring in it? maybe i’ll go see it when it comes out.” the cashier sighed.
“i believe ewan mcgregor is starring in it.”
“don’t know ‘im.”
“me either but i am excited regardless.” tom had the biggest smile on his face when the two of them got into the truck and headed back to mark’s apartment. they were supposed to be working on their new album but tom had begged for a movie night (mark knew when he agreed that he wasn’t going to be able to pick the movie and itd be some weird nerd movie, and it was).
“how many times have you seen this movie?” mark asked as he put it into the tv he had bought a year prior from a garage sale.
“too many times to count.” tom was swaying on the couch, visibly excited. mark sighed, tom was weird, very weird but it was why he loved him. when he finally got the movie to turn on, he joined tom on the couch. when the intro started to roll, tom recited the whole thing perfectly and even the first few lines of the movie. mark had no doubt he could say the entire thing but he was glad tom stopped so they could enjoy the movie.
it didn’t take long for tom to rest his head on mark’s shoulder and move in closer to be more comfortable. he didn’t have anything against it. as long as tom was comfortable and happy, that’s all that mattered to him. even if i meant watching star wars five hundred million times.
