My Savior, Bajancanadian.

Jerome Finds Out.

--Mitch's P.O.V.--

I woke up exhausted today and a little sore for some reason. I sat myself up on my bed and I turned to look at the clock, it's 10. I turned to look out the window and I got scared and fell out of my bed.

"Aah!" I yelled and got up from the floor and I never realized at all last night that Mark came into my bed.

He's a heavy sleeper that's for sure if he didn't wake up from that. Well, I guess I'm up now so I'm going to go make breakfast and wait for Mark to wake up.

I didn't know what to make so I looked through cupboards and other cabinets, but I didn't really find anything to make. I looked inside the fridge and found nothing to make for breakfast as well, great.

Alright, time to go out to the store. I went to the front door and I grabbed my keys and headed out to the store.

While I was at the store, my mom called and brought up Mark.

M❤️: So, how'd it go with that boy? Were they able to find his parents?

M: Ummm...about that.

M❤️: Mitch, what happened?

She got nervous real quickly.

M: Well, when he was getting in the shower, I noticed it looked like he had scars on his back, so I decided I would just have him stay with me until he remembers. I feel like he had abusive parents and that's why I didn't bring him.

All I could here was silence on the other line.

M❤️: Mitchell Hughes...

M: Mom I understand I could be wrong, but I don't want to take that chance. I think it's better off to take that chance.

M❤️: I know what you're thinking and I understand it, but honey his family could be missing him and wanting him. I know I would feel devastated if I lost any of my children and couldn't find them.

I never really thought about that, I just thought about him having abusive parents and keeping him away from pain.

M: Mom, you need to trust me on this.

M❤️: Ok...but if you're wrong, you have to buy me a very nice vacation to the Bahamas.

M: Ok, but if I'm right then you have to buy me a very nice vacation to the Bahamas.

M❤️: Deal, I can't believe we are betting on if a kid's parents are abusive or not.

I chuckled a little.

M: We are such a weird family, got to go love you!

M❤️: Love you too!

I got finished with my groceries and I was driving back home in a full trunk and some food in the back seat.

As I was bringing the groceries in, Mark yelled. "Mitch!" He said running up and hugging me, I almost dropped some of the groceries.

"Woah woah woah, what's the matter?" I said and while moving to the counter to put some of the groceries down.

He looked up at me with tears in his eyes. "I w...woke up and I...I didn't know where you went. I thought you had left me and I was just all by myself and y...you weren't going to come back." He put his head back into my chest and cried some more.

I hugged him as well. "Hey, Mark, I'm not going to leave you. I'll be here taking care of you until you get better. I'm sorry I left, I had to go get some food for us to eat, I forgot to leave a note."

We stayed there for a good minute or two and then I told him to go lay down on the couch as I finished bringing in the groceries.

I made us some pancakes and I brought them to him on the couch. We cuddled up on the couch and had some pancakes while watching some T.V.

When we finished, I got up and was going to head to the basement, but I stopped. "Hey, want to come see what I do for my job?" Mark nodded his head and got up from the couch to follow me downstairs.

I texted Jerome to see if he could come on and he was able to. I got setup on the computer and pulled up a chair for him.

"Hey, Mitch...and that other kid!" Jerome said as he entered the Skype call.

"Hey, Jerome, this is Mark, he's going to be staying with me for some time. I'll explain all of it later, but he wanted to see what I do for my job."

"Ok, nice to meet you Mark, my name is Jerome and I'm basically Mitch's best friend." I looked at Mark and all he did was wave to Jerome and smile.

"Ok, let's record four hunger games and two parkour races for today." Jerome nodded and I started up Minecraft.

I turned my chair around to face Mark. "Like the screen said, the game is called Minecraft, and you basically try and build amazing things in the normal game, but Jerome and I aren't doing that. What we're doing is playing a game where you have to kill everyone else and be the last person alive."

"Ok." That's all he said, I understand why because he has to see the game to understand a little and he still doesn't have a lot of memory.

As we started the game I ran away from the middle to go get other chest, and since we were at the Colosseum, spooky boobs.

"What's that in your bar thingy?" Mark questioned while pointing his finger to my hot bar. "That's an axe, it's a weapon that you use to kill people with, and the bar is called a hot bar."

That's when I realized everyone could probably here me talk to Mark, they're going to wonder who was talking or they might not, I'll just see how it goes when the video is up.

When Jerome and I finally got two good games, it was about 2 P.M.. "You hungry, it's past lunch time." I said turning around to Mark.

"Yeah, I didn't want to say anything because I knew you would stop so I just waited until you were done." I chuckled a little. "Mark, don't starve yourself, if you're hungry tell me. Hey, Jerome, we're going to go eat, let's finish this later tonight."

"Alrighty, see ya buddy, nice to meet you too, Mark." Jerome said waving before I stopped the chat.

Mark and I went out to lunch at a mall around town and then spent the day just walking and talking around the mall. We stayed out until 8 o'clock and when we got home, I put him to bed and went back downstairs.

"Hey, Mitch, where's Mark?" Jerome said as he entered the Skype call. "I just put him to bed, we were out all day since I stopped recording."

"Ok...why do you need to put him to bed and why is he with you? You know what just tell me everything about him." Jerome wants to know everything I know about him, so I fixed my position in my chair to sit up straight.

"Well, the only thing I can say is...amnesia. We aren't related and he's just a random kid, I took him in and he's going to be staying with me until he remembers, if he remembers."

Jerome was just silent for a few seconds while also looking the other way. "Ummm...why haven't you brought him to the police?"

"Because it looks like he has scars on his back, so I think his parents are abusive and something happened and he ran away. So, like I said he's just going to be staying with me, I'll show you the scars when we all are together. For now let's just finish the recording and we'll talk about it later."

We did just that and after he asked all the questions that weren't answered from when I said Mark had amnesia, we both went to bed.

Hey guys, I meant to get this in on March 3rd for Mitch's birthday, but I didn't get to finish in time and I was busy yesterday, so here it is.

Hope you guys are all enjoying the story so far, I've got to say I almost cried when I was writing Mitch hugging Mark on how Mark thought he was alone, but I got through the rest of the chapter without crying and I then laughed about it after.

I'll try and get the next chapter up as soon as I can. Again, I hope you all are enjoying the story so far.
