Work Text:
connor and marcus was rewatching disventure camp: all stars, its been months since the third season is done and it is now airing on television for everyone to see, people had their good and not so good moments in the season.
now there is going to be a fourth season and this time it is going to be a new cast era, connor was glad that the show was back on so that he could watch it but this would have meant that him and marcus would have to be away from each other.
the two met each other after the second season ended and the two had a random chat which start a friendship between the two of them, despite their differences they maintain a great bond with each other and it went great, however after season three they started to have feelings for one another, connor was the first to crush on marcus while it took a bit more time for the bus driver to know his feelings.
the two started a relationship with each other and it’s going well, they managed to trust each other and things are perfect..however there is one thing that Connor is dying to know..why does Marcus keeps his glasses on?
connor haven’t really looked at the blinde’s man eyes even if they are private with each other, he asked Marcus sometimes only for the person to change the subject or just say he likes it but Connor knows there is an hidden reason to this, he wasn’t sure if the staff team only saw his real eyes.
”hey baby..you know you are pretty right?” Connor said as he wraps his hand around Marcus’s waist, the bus drivers blushes and smiles at him.
”thanks Connor, I admire you so much.” he replied to his boyfriend.
”well your personality is quite different from mines but that’s ok, because our love is the same” Connor said as a way to make Marcus take his glasses off, although it seems like the bus driver isn’t giving up.
”haha thanks..” Marcus said while trying to find out what is going on, Connor just wanted to know what is Marcus hiding through his eyes.
”i know you enjoy seeing my beautiful shining eyes and it would be great if-“
”Connor, no.”
marcus suddenly moved away from Connor leaving the man sighing down with disappointment and a bit of anger in himself.
”why though?! Why are you acting like this!?” Connor yelled a bit at Marcus as he wonders what could possibly be wrong.
”because I don’t want to ok! Why can’t you take a simple no for once! Why do you care so much anyways!?”
Marcus yelled back at Connor, this has turned from a romantic reaction to a reality show they were both in to a less heated argument.
“because it feels like you are just hiding things from me! I tell you about my struggles so why can’t you just do the same thing!” Connor said as he walks a bit near to Marcus.
“Well this one is personal alright! You don’t know what I’m hiding from you!”
”oh please! It’s just a pair of eyeballs why are you acting so dramatic, it’s like a rare and special item you find in a store or something!”
”you know that’s not true!” connor angrily scoffs as he folds his arms in a disappointed manner
“look connor! don't need to see my eyes to understand me. Some things are private, Connor." Marcus said trying to make his boyfriend shut up
"I get that, but it's frustrating baby, It feels like there this wall always getting between us And it’s because of you” Connor said as he points his hand towards Marcus but he slapped Connor’s hand.
”oh whatever! you are acting so fucking dramatic! I’m not giving you what you wanted!” Marcus roared out loud to Connor, as he closes the tv off because he could not bear listening to the song
"Because it makes no sense to me at all! We're supposed to be close, but you keep shutting me out over some stupid secret that doesn’t mean anything!”
“It's not stupid to me! And if you can't understand that, well that’s too damn bad!”
“You know what! If that's how you feel, Maybe I don't understand you at all!!” Connor yelled loud at Marcus which causes Marcus to move into Connor’s face
”And I don’t care!!” Marcus raged at Connor back, and then it all happened…
”you are being so annoying your eyes can’t be that all bad!” Connor said as he grabs Marcus’s glasses just to see what it looks like, he knew this would bite him later on but he couldn’t take it anymore, he just wants to know what could-
oh…Connor gasped, Marcus had a reason to hide his eyes from Connor, it’s because he had two different eye colours..Connor was feeling bad because he felt stupid, why did he had to do this?
suddenly he heard crying and it was from Marcus, his tears drizzle down his honey golden yellow beard as he felt something triggered..he felt upset and angry.
”baby I’m sorry..”
”…”
no answer from Marcus, Connor tried to get close to Marcus because he wants him to know how much he is sorry but suddenly there was a a huge change in that.
SLAP!!
Connor flinched at the slap he had received from Marcus and turned his head to see that he was angry, he had dried salty tears and his eyes were a bit red, seconds go by and tears started to form again while he stood glaring at Connor.
”Marcus…”
”can you fuck off! Now do you see why I’m scared of taking off my glasses! Because I thought you would see me as this freak! See!? My glasses are gone are you happy now!?” Marcus said while his voice has a hint of sadness and fear.
”well if you only told me that then this wouldn’t happened!”
“don’t you dare try to put this on me!, I’m going! Go enjoy yourself!” Marcus said as he walked out of the living room to their bedroom, leaving Connor alone.
the grey haired man sat down and lions down at the ground feeling remorse and guilt over taking him, he started to cry and weep as he felt stupid for what he had done.
minutes has pass and Connor was thinking about what he did, it wasn’t a great option or choice, and now because of his actions he had upset Marcus.
“you asshole!” a angry voice called out and Connor looks around to see Nina folding her arms like a angry parent would do to their child.
”Nina! There is no need for lan-“ Connor’s mouth started countering back to tell off Nina but the puppet beats him to it with a reply.
”you made Marcus cry! Even I wouldn’t go that far! Why the hell would you do that!?”
”because all I wanted to know is why does he hides his actual eyes…and I went a bit overboard” Connor said with heavy remorse as he glared at Nina.
“And you think taking off his glasses would be appropriate!? Get a grip!”
”look! I’m sorry ok! I don’t need someone slandering me about it !” Connor yelled back at Nina, he didn’t want to start an another argument with Nina.
“you upset Marcus and I will upset you back!”
”both of you stop it!”
nina and connor both looked up to see marcus standing, however he was not wearing his glasses anymore and instead his eyes were revealed. he heard the argument from the bedroom and he wanted to stop things before it get out of hand, he gave off a disappointing face to Connor and sighs.
”well I’m gonna go back.” the puppet girl spoked as she walks back.
”connor, I didn’t want you to find out about this.” He spoke refering to his eyes.
”I actually have heterochormia, and that’s why I didn’t want to tell you at first. I thought you would have left me because I was worried that you would call me a freak.” he continued going on about what’s going on.
”why would I ever do that Marcus?” Connor replied to Marcus while he was walking near to Marcus to see his eyes..it may look strange but Connor didn’t cared.
”back when I was little, i had this condition for a long time when I was little, when I was at school most people used to make fun of me for having heterochormia, it got worse to the point that I didn’t really had a lot of friends growing up.” Marcus spoked.
“I’m really am so sorry that this happened, and I’m sorry that I removed your glasses off” connor spoke with a tone of apologetic behaviour
“it’s ok..but please don’t do that again ok? Seriously” Marcus replied forgiving Marcus but he gives off a stern voice.
“I promise..”
