Chapter 3: airplanes and memories

A/n: sorry if the video is depressing...but it's what gave me inspiration for this chapter. I was gonna talk about how much he has inspired my as a person but I don't think I can fit that in here ahaha he's such a sweet person.
REMEMBER: (September sorrysorry) the 'blah blah blah'=someone's thoughts.
Anyways...on to the story.
And of anyone is reading this...please tell me if I should continue and what I'm doing wrong..please.

*Yami's POV*

Wait...WHAT?!

The blond haired man sat silently at his computer, moments after his friend dropped a giant bomb and decided to be an ass and turn off the camera.

Aaron was startled out of his state of chock by a bing on his computer notifying him that he got an email.

So Mark was right, he wasn't lying. Yami chuckled to himself as he opened the link for the ticket.

'Wait this flight leaves in 2 days!' He panicked slightly picking up his phone to text Mark.

Clicking on "markimoo" he typed a very confused text to his friend.

A: Mark? R u serious? You didn't need to pay for it, and the flight leaves in 2 days!

Well if Aaron was gonna go he better pack now. Sliding his phone in his back pocket he went to gather his things.

Yami thought back to the Skype call and how Mark had reacted when he told him that Jesse had cheated on him. The last part of the sentence made Yami flinch.

To be completely honest, Aaron was a little scared his American friend. Don't get him wrong, he was a great person, but he had a bit of a temper.
Darkiplier wasn't another person, it was basically the side of Mark that came out when he was furious.
Like when he unleashed his unholy rage when he played 'I am Bread'.

And Yami will never forget the pure anger he saw on Mark's face when they had a 4 way Skype call with him, Wade, Bob, and Yami. Wade brought up that he had walked in on his wife cheating on him.

Needless to say when it comes to friends, Mark is very protective.

Aaron was grateful for Mark, he was always such a nice person and he loved talking and playing games with him. Even though it seemed like Mark made fun of him a lot, they would just joke about it later.

Mark always laughed at his jokes, something that Jess never did. She always thought that his humor was stupid.

'Wait why am I comparing them?'
Yami shrugged to himself and carried on.

*Mark's POV*

Mark glanced at the clock after he ended his video chat with his favorite Brit.
2:16AM.
Welp he was too hyper to go to sleep now!

'Hm I better start cleaning up if Yami is coming over in a few days.'

While he was straightening up his kitchen, at 2AM, in just flannel pants, he felt his phone vibrate from his waistband (a/n: ok I can't be the only person who does this!).

It read Yami:3 : Mark? R u serious? You didn't need to pay for it. And the flight leaves in 2 days?!

Haha indeed it does. Well in hindsight maybe he should have given him more of a heads up.

Mark sent his reply back as quickly as he could.

M: hey it's no problem, you shouldn't be spending time alone, plus I would love to have you here :) comic con is in a few days and I was gonna take u to that but know I was wondering...do u wanna come live with me for a while?

Mark was very nervous about what Yami's response would be....he couldn't wait to hold Yami in his arms.

Wait.

Shut up brain!!!!

Yami's response came back quicker than expected.

Y: I'm actually packing rn. I would love to stay with u for awhile. Thank you so much! Can't wait to meet you face to face :)

Mark did a victory air pump.
Finally!!

*Yami's POV*

~2 days later~

Aaron quickly grabbed all of his bags and recording equipment, taking one look at the barren apartment.

He should text Jess later, and tell her that the apartment is all hers, he wants nothing to do with it.

Hailing a cab with a loud whistle, which strangely worked he made his way to the airport.

Y: hey I'm on my way 2 the airport will u give me a ride back to ur place?

Yami let out a long sigh, taking one last long look at his home town.

This is good. A new start with someone he cares about.
Aaron didn't feel his eye lids closing until the cabbie yelled at him to "get yer arse movin out of my cab!"

While Yami was waiting at the airport he decided to watch one of Mark and his old gmod horror map videos.

By the end of it people were making weird faces at him because he was laughing to hard.

'Man I can't wait to see his cute laugh in person'

Hold up.

Yami shook that thought from his head, having no idea where it came from.

~On the plane ~

Aaron carefully made his way around he other people on the plane, shuffling his way to his window seat.

"Oof sorry mate" he apologized making his way past a rather large man who just shot him a glare, making the poor shy blond haired man shrink back a little.

When the flight finally took off Yami couldn't stop his mind from slipping into a peaceful sleep.

{Dream}

"Don't you understand Aaron! I'm leaving you because I hate you!!"
That was the first thing he was greeted with as soon as his eyes closed.

He looked up with watery eyes into the face of a disgusted looking Jesse.

"I- I don't know what I did to make you leave! I'm sorry!!!" He sobbed, sinking to his knees.

Blackness Yami didn't notice before started to make its way around his throat. It's tendrils looking like vines as it threatened to consume him.

The last thing he saw and heard before the darkness swallowed him whole was something that made his heart shatter.

"No one will ever love you, you pathetic piece of shit! I never even loved you!"

"I hope you die!"

{End Dream}

Yami awoke with a start, quickly wiping some renegade tears that started to travel down his cheeks.

The flight attendant's annoyingly high pitched voice came on the speakers, saying something that Aaron was paying no attention to.

He quietly looked out the window and wondered 'If I threw myself out of this window, would I die?'
He cleared his mind, thinking that he at least wanted to meet Mark before he died.

'I hope that's soon because I'm starting to lose my grip on mind, and on my life.'
