The Screen That Separates Us (Markipkier x Tabathie)

Chapter 12

I could still feel my face on fire after a couple of minutes. I buried my face into my pillow, and tried to calm down. I stayed with my face buried in the pillow until I didn't have any more air. I lift my head, still flushed.

I hear my phone ding for a text message. It's done it a couple of times now.

I finally place my hand over my phone and grab it. I lift it to my face and see 5 texts from Mark.

M: Hey.

M: I'n sorry.

M: Will you please respond?

M: Respond!

M:Pleaseeeeee! Bob and Wade think I did something wrong.

There was also a missed call from him, but no voice mail.

I slide open the phone and text back.

Hey.... Uh....

He doesn't reply via text, oh no. He decides to call me. Which I pick up and place the phone to my ear.

"H-" I can't even finish the word before Mark cuts me off.

"Taba! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make you angry!" He says, and I can hear the tears in his voice.

I stay silent for a minute before bursting out laughing. "Mark. You're fine. I'm just used to complements."

"Really?" Mark asks, surprised.

"Ye-" I start before getting cut off again.

"You had me so worried! I thought you were angry at me." He says with a sigh of relief.

"No, you just surprised me and I dunno what to do when someone gives me a compliment." I say, with a small laugh.

"Look, I'm really sorry."

"You're fine Mark. Stop apologizing."

"I can't!" Mark says, probably running a hand through his hair. "I just feel horrible!"

I laugh more before yawning. "I really need to get to bed." I say.

"Sorry!" He says quickly. "I shouldn't have kept you up!"

"You're fin-" Mark once again cut me off.

"Bye! I'll see you tomorrow!" He added something under his breath before hanging up.

I place my phone down, laughing a bit before burying my face into my pillow.

~Time skip!~

I wake up the next morning on the floor. That wasn't where I remember falling asleep on.

I sit up, my phone was under my bed, so I figured I'd fallen off the bed. I reach to grab it and pick it up.

After that I grab my glasses off the nightstand and put them on. In front of me was something I wish I never was to see.

Yay for cliffhangers! Even though the next chapter will probably be out in the next hour or so. Whatever!

Love you guys! ~Taba ^~^
