Mark liked summer. It was only natural for a Californian born to be used to the sun and warmth that came along and he wouldn't complain when it got so hot his fellow members started whining about it. He was simply used to it.
"Why do you even like summer? How can one have summer as their favorite season when it's this hot?"
"It's not my favorite season, I just enjoy it a lot. And there are plenty of reasons to like it, the heat is just taking over you at the moment."
"Name one good reason and I'll reconcider what I just said."
"You usually don't catch colds as easily. It does happen but not as much."
"I have a good immune system, I usually don't catch them in the winter either."
"Okay, but how often do you visit the beach in the summer? Or stay out until 10 PM without it getting dark?"
Mark could see a faint smile twitch in the corners of Jackson's mouth and he knew Jackson didn't actually dislike summer, in reality he was just as fond of it. But teasing Mark was always a little fun.
"Is there absolutely nothing else?"
Mark knew what Jackson wanted.
"I also like watching how your skin goes from beautifully pale to golden brown. It's sad you wouldn't be as accepted by some people because you got a tan but I welcome it."
"I knew you like my body."
"Try find someone who doesn't."
"You know what else summer is great for, Mark?"
"Please do tell me."
"Taking romantic walks, visiting amusement parks, summer parties...There are endless of things and still my body is your number one priority."
"To be fair I named other things before but if it makes you feel better about yourself, I'll accept your body as my number one priority."
"You're too sweet. I should go working on my tan so I can win you over all over again."
Mark really did like summer.
