Crazy love! (Septiplier AU)

Chapter 10: Thank you

Marks PoV
Jack and I walked to the abandoned train tracks. We walked along the tracks holding hands. I was planning to tell Jack I liked him, but I don't know if I should. What if he doesn't fell the same, or what if he likes someone. I couldn't risk it. "Mark hello." I was snapped out my day dream by Jack waving in my face. "Oh yeah, just thinking." I said as we stopped walking along the tracks. I sat down on the track and Jack joined me. He cuddled up to my and I put my arm around him. He was very short and small for his age, but that made him even cuter. "Hey Mark, who do you have a crush on." Jack said as he snuggled me as much as he could. I couldn't tell him I love him. "Um... I like." I couldn't finish my sentence.

"Mark you okay." Jack said as I stated to panic. "Jack, I-I can't." I said as I looked away from him. "I'll tell you if you tell me." Jack said as he held my hand. I swallowed the lump in my throat and sighed. "I-I like y..." I couldn't do it, I just couldn't. "I like kakona." I lied. Jack didn't look happy at first then a smile grow on his face.

I smiled when I remember kakona was framed for murdder. "Well who do you like?" Mark asked as he got over his panic attack.
He doesn't like me. I can't tell him. "I like Osana." I lied. Mark frowned. "Hey Jack I..." Mark was cut off by my phone going off. I picked it up it was IT. "What." I said rudely. "Where are you get your ass home!" IT yelled down the phone. "What the fook, school only finished an hour ago!" I yelled. "I don't give a shit, get home brat!"

I hanged up. Mark was looking at me, confused. "Sorry I have to go." I said as I grabbed my bad and began to walk off.  "Jack!" I heard Mark yell as he ran after me. He grabbed my arm and yelped in pain. He looked down and pulled up my sleeve. "J-Jack... Why are your arms bruised?" He asked as he looked at my arm in horror. "M-my dad did it the other day." I said as a tear rolled down my cheek.

I didn't want to believe what Jack just told me. He began to cry. "They never heal he hits me every day." He said. "Is that why the cuts and bruises on your face have healed yet?" I asked. Jack nodded at me. I hugged him as tightly as I could. "I-I don't want to go home." Jack cried in to my shoulder. "You can stay round mine, if you want." I said as I rubbed his back gently. He nodded again and I released him from my hug.

We walked back to my house. I held jacks hand as we walked. He had been through so much, and I didn't know about it. I felt like this my fault, but I don't know why. "Mark." Jack said. I snapped out of my day dream and looked at him. "Yeah." I said. "Thank you." Jack said as he tightened his grip on my hand. I smiled as him and ruffled his hair. "No problem bud."
