It's Always An Honor To Save You

Chapter Nine

Your POV:

Mark looks up at me.

"They just made it to the hotel and will be here in thirty minutes," He says.

I walk into his bedroom when he said that. I am wearing a black crop top, ripped up blue jean shorts with spikes above the pocket area, my red plaid flannel jacket, fish net leggings and black leather boots that go up to my knees. My black hair is straight and my bangs look like they always do. Combed and emo like. I'm wearing my black beanie too. My makeup looks like it always does. Cat eye look with extra dark black eyeliner to bring out my blue eyes, I have black eyeshadow over my eye liner to give it a faded look and I'm wearing mascara. Nothing new there.

Mark's POV:

The doorbell goes off.

"Coming," I yell as I walk up to the door and let Aaron, Jack, Bob, and Wade, in and surprisingly Tyler, and Jess was with them. They all sit in the living room. I had to pull in some chairs from the kitchen to fit everyone.

"You should know," I practically announce to the six people in my living room. "There is someone living in here with me."

"Is it a girl?" Aaron asked.

"Yes," I replied.

"Is she your girlfriend?" Jess asked.

"No, we are just friends," I replied.

"Is it the girl you like?" Wade asked.

I instantly tense up. I'm not sure if I should lie or not. I chose truth.

"Shhhhh," I reply. "She's been living here for a month because her house caught fire and she had nowhere else to go. She is also really shy, quiet, and scared. Don't make it awkward for her please."

They all silently awe which makes me blush a little.

"(F/N)," I call out.

She walks into the living room looking really shy and adorable.

Your POV:

I'm standing in the living room with fear coursing my veins. I am really scared.

Bob asks, "How are you?"

I look at my feet with my hands in front of me.

"Good," I say quietly.

I look up and only make eye contact with Mark. He smiles at me and I just stay still. He motioned me to sit next to him because he saved me a spot. I slowly walk over to Mark and sit in between him and Tyler. I look up at Tyler for a second then quickly look down at my feet. I scoot closer to Mark and grab his arm and practically hide the bottom half of my face behind Mark's shoulder. Only my eyes were seen but I wouldn't make eye contact with anybody. Now I am hugging Mark's arm and probably am embarrassing myself.

Mark's POV:

(F/N) is so shy and it is kinda adorable. She's holding onto my arm tightly and the way she looked up to Tyler reminded me of Bambi. She doesn't realize how crazy I am going in my head right now with her like this. I can see Aaron smiling at her then looking at me and his smile gets bigger. Wade is the same way. He is looking at me with the same proud look I gave him after his wedding and after his dance with his wife Molly. I smile back at Aaron then look over at Wade and smile at him too. I then look down at (F/N) and smile at her.

"You okay?" I whisper to her.

She just looks up at me and gives one nod.
