(Still in the flashback ^_^)

We hugged for the longest time. I had finally stopped crying and so had Mark. It was now 10:45 and it had started to storm. I was kind of scared of thunder. Just because it was so loud. We let go of each other and I leaned back to lay in Mark's bed. He did the same and turned his head to look at me.

"You can sleep in my bed, I'll sleep on the couch, okay?" I was about to open my mouth to speak but an extremely loud clap of thunder scared me. I jumped and grabbed Mark. "Hey, its okay, its just thunder. You're fine." I squeezed him tighter as I heard another loud clap of thunder. "You know thunder scares me!" He laughed and I let go of him. "You'll be fine. Now go to bed." He got off the bed and was about to walk out of the room, but I stopped him just as he was closing the door.

"Mark, can you stay with me?" He turned around slowly and crossed his arms. "Where am I supposed to sleep?" I thought for a moment and crossed my arms too. "You can sleep next to me." He dropped his arms to his sides and blushed slightly. "Fine..." He walked back to the bed and laid down next to me. Another loud clap of thunder frightened me and I grabbed Mark again, holding him tightly. He hugged me and we soon fell asleep in each other's arms.

I woke up in the same position as the night before, cuddled up with Mark. I'm surprised he didn't get up and leave in the middle of the night. I snuggled up closer to him and felt him move slightly. I pretended to go back to sleep so he wouldn't think I was awake when I did that. "Aww." I heard him say. What? Aww what? Was he talking about me? "She's so cute..." I shifted slightly and I heard Mark mumble, "Shit..."

I opened my eyes and looked at Mark. He had pretended to fall asleep as I did. "Mark? Mark, I know you're awake." He opened one eye to look at me. "You didn't hear shit." I laughed and he closed his eye again. "Yeah... Sure I didn't. By the way, I know I'm cute, thanks for confirming that for me." I laughed and he opened both his eyes. His face turned a deep shade of red. "Shut up..." He elbowed me lightly. "Aww, is Mark embarrassed?" I laughed and his face reddened even more.

"I hate you..." "Well that's obviously a lie." I laughed. "Don't be like that, Mark. I can't handle it. It's too adorable." I laughed and kissed his cheek. His mouth opened slightly and he stared at me. I laughed and walked out of the room and to the kitchen because I like eating Mark's food.
