Annie's POV

I am tired of being here, living with my dad who doesn't even care about me. All he does is get drunk, and beat on me.

"ANNIE!!!!" I hear yelling throughout the entire house. My dad wants to beat me again.

I start to shake as I see the door to my room busts down.

"DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME CALL YOU!?!"

I start to open the window in my bathroom, because I was in the bathroom carefully trying to hide.

I jump out the window and I start to run as fast as I could.

After running for a while, I stop and sit on a bench.

My heavy breathing is heard through the streets.

I get up and start walking. I walk a bit limp. I hear my ankle crack as I fall to the ground instantly.

I scream so loudly, but no one could hear me.

I was alone.

I try to get up, but it's no use. No one is there to help me.

I start to hear footsteps walking towards me.

"Are you alright?" I hear a strangely familiar voice say to me. I look up to see a man with red hair.

It was Markiplier.

The Markiplier.

"You are going to freeze out here! Here, take my hoodie." He hands me his hoodie. I was freezing. I'm only wearing a tank top and a pair of denim shorts.

I put on the hoodie. It is warm from Mark's warmth when he had it on.

"Th-thank you M-Mark." I forgot I was crying the entire time.

I was scared.

Was.

Now, my hero is here.

"What are all these bruises and cuts on you? I hope it's ok if I ask you this." He looks me straight in the eye. He then starts to examine my wounds. I have a big gaping rip on my ankle, one that I didn't notice before.

"M-my dad abused me, and these are marks from every day he beat on me. Every day, he was drunk. I just ran away, and now I'm here. But, I did hurt my ankle badly. I heard it crack as I fell down."

He picks me up and starts running. I guess he is going to take me to the hospital. That's the only way I can be ok.

When we get to the hospital...

I wake up, I see stitches all over my body. I see Mark sitting over in a chair, with his hands on his head and he's crying.

"M-Mark," I say, confused on why he is crying.

He looks up and smiles. "So, you watch my channel?"

"Yeah, I do, because you have kept me happy for many years."

He smiles even wider. "That's amazing, I'm glad to help you. Whatever it is that interests you in my channel, at least I helped you."

A nurse walks in, "Sir, is it ok if I talk to Annie alone for a minute?"

Mark nods and walks out. The nurse walks in.

"Annie, you are very fortunate. He brought you in right on time. You were about to bleed out, if he wouldn't have done that, you could have been dead. I know it's hard to say, but at least that didn't happen." She smiles.

"Thank you for helping me out with the stitches. It's my dad, he's crazy."

"No problem, honey. You will be able to go tomorrow, so you need some rest until tomorrow."

She smiles and walks out. Mark comes back in.

"So, any good news?" He sniffs as he asks a question.

"Yes, I get to get out tomorrow."

"Ok, great!"

"Mark? Can I ask you something?"

"Yes, ask me anything."

"What happened before I woke up? And why were you crying?"

He pauses for a moment.

"Umm...You..uh...Your heart stopped, and...then..they tried to rush to get your heart beating again. And they did eventually."

"How long did it take?"

"It took them about 5 minutes."

"Ok."

"And I was crying because I care about you. And plus, you can have my hoodie. I have plenty of hoodies, plus it looks cute on you."

I'm happy that he cares about me, at least someone does. And I get to keep his hoodie. It is big on me, but, it's so comfortable!

"Thank you Mark! We should probably get some rest, it's been quite a day for me."

"Also, Mark, I need a place to stay. I hope it's ok if I can stay with you."

"It's fine with me!"

I smile and fall asleep.
