Amour silencieux~A Marcus Abbott X reader story

499

While we were walking through the what felt like endless rows of boats, someone grabbed me, his eyes were bloodshot and he held a knife to my neck. "It's you, or the girl" the man signed to Marcus, before he could say anything back I pointed at myself, "NO" Marcus screamed, then he realized what he had just done. The man stabbed me in the ankle and then started running, me, Marcus and Evelyn jumped into the water seeing as one of the creatures drowned we figured they weren't waterproof. I grabbed onto Marcus and I kissed him and he made sure I was ok, after about ten minutes Evelyn found a little row boat, we all piled in and started heading towards the small island where Emmett and Regan were.

Two hours had passed and we had finally made it to the island, people were grilling and children were playing, it was almost like nothing had ever happened. I still had a lot of questions, I think Marcus had some similar ones, he looked enraged, I mean I was too, we had gone almost 500 days on our own, we had been through hell, as for these people? They had been on this island, with fresh water, and no creatures. A man came over to me and Marcus and asked if he could get us some clean clothes, we shook our heads in agreement and followed him to his house, he showed me and Marcus to a room and pointed to where everything was, I grabbed a shirt and some pants and Marcus did the same. "Y/n can I ask you something..?" "Yes..?" "Why do you care about me so much?" I looked him dead in the eye, "Marcus I-" then we heard screaming from outside, we could only imagine what was out there, we went over to the window and looked out of it, there it was, a creature, in all it's glory. "Damn it, we finally, FINALLY find somewhere safe..and then this happens" I signed, "come here" he pulled me into the closet and shut the door, we sat on the ground as we heard more screaming by the second. "I don't think I'm ready to die yet" I said, "no one is..hey what were you gonna say earlier" "oh uh, Marcus...I love you, and I don't know what I would do if you weren't here" "y/n I..I love you too" he kissed me and we started making out. Then I heard it, the ticking, it was getting closer, I held my pointer finger to my lips. A few minutes had passed and it finally went away, we heard gun shots from outside and everything went even more silent than before.
