Y/n = your name

Your POV

You woke up and stretched your jaws open, letting a small yawn escape. You scratch your head then your eyes flutter open. What you saw made you gasp a small bit. Mark was sitting there staring at you.

" Morning Mark." You said before yawning again.

" Morning." He replied gruffly. Then you looked down and saw his strong arms. He had a deep scratch on one.

"What was that?" You tip your head.

"Mmm, I went downstairs to the animal center where they care for the animals of elderly people who are stuck in the hospital. Some tabby cat scratched me." He replied quickly, almost as if he was defensive.

"You should be more careful." You smile and walk over to the hospital's little countertop in the room.

"Want some coffee Mark?" You ask.

"Mhm." He hums then you go off and start making it. You add some cream to both of them then take another little coffee creamer package and drink it straight up. You had always loved the creamy sweetness of the creamer.

When the coffee was done you waddled over to mark and handed him a cup. You quickly finished your coffee and you hadn't seen him drinking his but he was done too. You grabbed the cups and plopped them in the sink, leaving them for the hospital staff to clean since you couldn't find soap.

"Hey y/n.." Mark says quietly and you walk over to him on the floor and sit down.

"Yeah?" You tip your head slightly.

"What do I do now?" He asks.

"Well go back to your house." You answer in a duh kind of voice.

"My parents found out I was gay. They're kicking me out." Mark muttered.

"I have an empty room for rent in my apartment." You smile.

"Could I maybe stay there? I can pay four hundred a month." He said.

"Yeah sure, and don't worry you don't need to pay." Your eyes glitter with excitement.

"Thanks a lot y/n." Mark stands up so you do too. He pulls you into a hug. You couldn't help but blush as he held you in his warm, strong arms. He let go and you guys snatched up your stuff.

You walked out of the building and realized you didn't have a car on you.

"Let's get a taxi." Mark said gruffly.

"No let's walk. It isn't too far away." You smiled.

Mark sighed and you led the way. You hopped around between tiles and hopped on the road lines. Mark just kept walking. Hopefully he would get over this eventually. You knew he needed some time. Especially with what had happened last night.

You reached the apartment building and walked upstairs to yours. You fumbled with the keys for a bit before opening the door and letting Mark go in.

You kicked the door shut and led Mark to his room.

"Here it is." You showed him around in it.

"Get out." He growled.

"OK?" You walked out of his room and he slammed the door shut.
