Chap 12.

Matt Pov🪞

I woke up the next morning with a massive headache. Turns out I just cried myself to sleep last night. I got up weakly and headed toward the bathroom. I tripped over one of Mark's books. When I looked down at it, I felt more tears well up in my eyes. I kicked it aside and shut the bathroom door behind me.

Looking in a mirror always made me feel better about myself. Today, I looked like a train wreck. I brushed my teeth, did all my normal morning things. Maybe I could beg Edd for me to come back. I got dressed and grabbed my keys. But first, I was gonna head over to Eddie's and have him pick up Mark's stuff, because right now I didn't even want to know Mark ever existed in my life if he was going to pull that shit with me. 

I arrived at Eddie's apartment complex and took a deep breath. Just get in and get out, I thought. After a while, I found his apartment and knocked on the door. I heard someone curse, then the door opened. Eddie peered at me, his hair and clothing a bit messy. A horrible thought flashed through my mind. DId they..? I clenched my hand into a first and looked directly at Eddie. He laughed. "WELL WELL WE-" I didn't even let him finish. I punched him square in the face. He fell, holding his, I hope to be, broken nose. "Shut it, bastard. What the hell does Mark see in you that's SOOOO attractive?!" Eddie blinked and stood up. "What the hell?..Mark doesn't like me..He's too..ugly." I was stunned. If Mark wasn't with him, then where..? "Where is he then?..And for your information, Mark is the kindest and wonderful man I've met!..And I know you have something to do with his so-called, "Doctor's appointment."

 Eddie went quiet and then sighed. "I took him some gang out in the woods. They needed to have a word with him.." I squinted and bit down my lip. "You took him to the exact same people that hurt him! And what do you mean? There's more than just Todd?! Start explaining, Baker!" Eddie looked down and hugged himself. "They were going to pay me big money if I brought Mark to them..At that time I hated Mark and was willing for him to just...I dunno..Get hurt..But I learned that one of them dude killed Jon and the other killed Mark's fiance..I started feeling guilty..but I had to end what I started.."

I was speechless. This man traded his friend for some CASH. I wanted to punch the living hell out of this man. But I controlled myself. "You're a sick person. But there is one way you can make it up to me."

I stared up at the ceiling whistling as I held my good foot against Todd's face. He struggled underneath my purple tennis shoe, as I sat back and laughed. I flipped his knife in the air and smirked at him. "Ya know, you're doing a very horrible job at holding me captive. Just saying." That pissed him off more. "Markus, how the fuck are doing this?! You have a broken ankle!" I blinked and stared down at my other foot. The pain felt numbed, which I couldn't tell if that was good or bad. Probably bad. I glanced back at him. "And you're about to have a broken nose when I get done with you." I laughed again. This would teach the sucker that I wasn't the defenseless little crybaby that I was back then. 

Todd gripped onto my leg, digging his sharp nails into the skin. I pulled my leg back and rubbed the spot where he dug it at. He jumped up and tackled me! "Gotcha!" Pain shot up my back as I wheezed, trying to get my breath. This would be fun. If I wasn't with a psychopath. I stared up at him and stuck out my tongue. "I hate you." Todd smirked and kissed me softly on the lips. "You're having too much fun~" My eye twitched as I used my knee to slam it into his gut. He pulled back, coughing up black blood. I scooted back into a corner and yawned. "You aren't my type. I prefer gingers." Todd wiped the blood as he cocked his head to the side. "You're still thinking about that idiot?! Forget it. He probably thinks you ran off with a girl or something." 

I laughed. Matt would never think that!

Would he?..
