        I had Mark in my arms still when I woke up, and I saw that he was awake.  I brushed his hair with my fingers, and sang to him.  He calmed down, and I kissed his cheek."  I love you."  He said, and I smiled."  I love you more."  He sat up, and I nudged him."  Come on, let me see that smile."  I said, and he finally smiled."  I'm going to get donuts, do you want to join me?"  I asked, and he nodded.  We left in our pajamas, and got the donuts.  We drove back, and ate them in bed.  Mark got jelly all over his face, and I started laughing."  Are you so jelly Mark?"  I asked, and he started laughing too."  So where are you going today?"  He asked taking another donut."  Wherever you want, but we have to be home before midnight.  I'm trying to make sure we both get enough sleep per night."  He nodded, and yawned a little bit."  You wanna go see a movie, then just hang out with the Grumps?"  I nodded, and he put his head on top of mine."  That sounds excelent Mr. Warfstache."  I said kissing his cheek, and he smiled.  He helped me put on my flannel, and I helped him with T-shirt  He then put a hat on top of my head as I was putting my belt on."  What the hell Mark?"  I said touching the bill of the hat."  You look good in hats."  He said, and I shrugged.

        After about fifteen minutes on arguing to either walk or drive, we decided to drive to the movie theaters.  Mark paid for the tickets, and I paid for the food.  The movie was at noon, and Mark got hungry.  So I snuck in some burgers from Mcdonalds, and he smiled at me."  How do you do that?"  He asked as I pulled them from my pocket."  Easy, they don't look."  I said, and took a bite of my burger.  As the movie started, someone's phone went off."  Hello?  I can't now I'm watching a movie, and Markiplier's in the theater."  The person turned off their phone, and I threw popcorn at Mark."  What the hell?"  He whispered, and I pointed at his fan."  It's a fan, don't get jelly."  I gave him a scrunched up face look, and he laughed.  As we watched the movie, I saw the girl just staring at us with an angry look.  Something popped out in the movie, and I hid my face in Mark's sleeve.  He stroked my hair, and smiled at me."  It's not funny."  I said into his sleeve, and he turned away from me hiding his laughter."  Ass."  I said, and sat back in my chair.  A clown popped out at the screen, and I screamed.  I didn't looked at the screen anymore, and hid my face in Mark's jacket sleeve.  He continued to stroke my hair, and put his head against mine.  After the movie, we got out of there.  We drove to the Grump station, but I didn't go in right there.  I should have, I really should have.

        A man ran into me, and stopped in his tracks.  It was the attack man, and he had a crazy smile on."  Hello Mati."  He said, and I glared at him.  I felt Mark's arm on my shoulders, and I turned toward him.  The attack man smiled at him, and Mark glared at him."  Word around here is that he isn't your real brother."  I rolled my eyes, and started to chuckle."  Well around here is wrong then, because he is.  He's six years older than me, right?"  I asked Mark and he nodded."  Wait how old are you?"  He asked, and I gave a stupid look."  I'm eighteen."

        "Really, because I think you're fifteen Mati Thompson.  I know who you are Mati, and you too Markiplier.  You think he's suck hot shit, well he ain't.  He just a fucking youtuber, a fucking phony.  Does pansy ass Charity streams, and is nothing."  I snapped right there.  I smacked the shit out of him, and made him spin.  He stood there shocked as he held his cheek."  How dare you say that about him, how dare you say that about anyone.  He's not just a youtuber, he doesn't just do Charitiy live streams.  He was there when no one else was.  He was there to catch me when I fell, to grab me from darkness.  He was everything that you will never be.  Now get the hell out of my face!"  I pushed past him, and went into the Grump station.  Mark followed me close behind, trying to talk to me."  Mati we need to talk about what just happened."  I turned toward him, and took a deep breathe."  It's true alright, every last word.  You caught me, you saved me.  I was going to commit suicide two years ago, and I didn't because I found out about you.  I found out what happened to you, and thought I could get what I was going through.  So I did, and now I'm here.  I don't want to talk about it."  I stood next to the door, and sighed."  I can't see them today, you stay here.  I'm going to blow off some steam."  I walked outside again, and walked to the gym.

        When I got there, Tiff was surprised to see me."  Thought you were spending the day with Mark."  I shook my head, and went to the punching bag.  I started punching hard enough to break some stitches.  I didn't stop until I felt a hand on my bandaged wrist."  What happened?"  Tiff said, and I sat down."  I met that man who tried to attack me again, and I snapped.  I told Mark about how I almost commited suicide, but how he saved me.  I'm not sure if he wants to be with me anymore."  Tiff rubbed my back, and hugged me."  That's not true, Mark loves you a lot.   Why don't I leave you here for a little bit?"  I nodded, and continued to punch the bag.  At around six, I went home.  I was about to put my key into my door, when my phone buzzed.  Danny texted me.  Danny: Hey Mark's going to spend the night, he said he wants to think about what you said.

        I turned my key, and went into my apartment.  I just stood there trembling, but didn't cry.  I went up stairs and too a long bath.  My phone buzzed again, and Danny was calling."  Hey Mati, you doing okay?" 

        "No, I ruined everything."  Danny sighed, and I could tell he was shaking his head."  Yes I did Danny, he's upset.  He's not coming home tonight, he's just..."  I could finish the sentence without crying."  I'll talk to Mark, he'll come to his sense."

        "That's what everyone says."  I hung up on him, and got out of the tub.  I put on pajamas, and sat down on the couch downstairs.  I brought down a blanket and pillow, and turned off all the lights.  I put on the TV, and stayed like that for the rest of the night.
