The best part of the tour was seeing their recording rooms.
They were definitely the best rooms in the house. Mark and Jack have such different recording backgrounds in their videos, but somehow they made it work! It's so cool to see behind the scenes of their videos, and how they record and stuff.
Jack showed me every single thing he had in his room, from his shelves with all his collectables to what he uses in recording. I like that they are showing me every aspect of their lives.

Mark showed me my future room, it was a light grey colour, with bright sunlight shining through the window. I had a double bed with a plain black duvet. "The room is plain right now but when you move in we will make it the best room ever" he says.

We go back into the living room, where Jack is waiting for us.
I sit down on the couch across from them. "So Laura, we don't want to rush you and we don't want you to feel pressured into moving in until we sign the papers, we wanted to invite you over so you could see into our lives" Jack says gently, making sure I understand.

"Okay, yeah I understand" I say and they looked relieved.
"You know, it's much easier to have someone who already knows information about us move in than someone who is a complete stranger" he continues "You are a big fan I've heard?"
"Massive fan" suddenly I begin to get a lump in my throat "So you know I'm an orphan, but you don't know how much pain I've gone through in the past 11 years to be finally this close to be adopted" I say, I can feel my lower lip trembling. Don't. Cry.
They look like they're going to cry too, and suddenly I just let it all out, bursting into tears. I let out all the pain, loneliness and hate I've gone through by crying. Jack and Mark sit on either side of me, hugging me.
It feels warm, soft and cuddly, is this what love feels like?

For the next few hours we just talk. Not just about me but about them as well. I finally got to ask some questions I've been thinking about for a while now.
"So um, Jack, don't you have a girlfriend? Well, that's what you've said to the Internet a while back" I say slowly, not wanting to hurt or upset him.
"Um, yeah about that, well she was my "girlfriend" for a while until I figured out who I really was" he raises his head up to Mark, smiling. "I knew it wasn't right, dating someone I didn't love, but I couldn't tell all my fans that, so I just kept it going, that's why there hasn't been that many photos of us together" He sighs and shakes his head, "I've found someone I truly love now" He grips Marks hand tightly.
I stay silent, slowly nodding my head. Silence.

"You know how important it is not to tell anyone this right?" Mark says, giving me a fright by how suddenly strict he is. "We've put a lot of trust in you already, you know that right?" I nod my head. "Please keep it secret" I look up at Mark and I look into his eyes.
I see fear, and I know he means it. "I promise" and I go over and hug them both.

Jack suddenly tickles me and I scream, hitting his head with a pillow. It suddenly turns into a huge pillow fight, and we are all screaming and laughing. We all forget our worries and just have some fun.
It only seemed like 2 minutes since we started the pillow fight when we heard a knock on the door.

"Hey guys, sorry to interrupt you, but it's time to bring Laura home" it's Cristina, but I don't want her to take me, I want to stay here forever.
Jack sees my sudden sadness and says "You know, Cristina, Laura should stay the night, right Mark?" Mark nods.
"Really? Can I please?" I put on my best puppy sad eyes face to Cristina, knowing that will win her over.
"If you're happy to, why not? I'll go back and grab her night stuff and then she's yours for the night, I'll pick her up around noon" Cristina waves goodbye to me and closes the door.

"Thank you so much!" I feel my body filling up with excitement. "It's like a big sleepover"
"Good idea!" Marks says jumping up.
"Pizza or popcorn?"
"Scary movie or not so scary movie?"
"Cinnamon buns or chocolate cake?"

"Popcorn, scary movie and cake" I say smiling like mad.

*????'s POV*
I look through the window to see a small girl talking to them.
Huh that's strange, why would they have a child in their flat at this time of night?
A friends child, maybe? I take a picture anyways, knowing it will be handy and it will contribute to my collection of black mail.
29 more days until their secret is revealed.
I run off, a dark shadow in the night.
