Dark was impatiently waiting for Mark to speak. He tapped his...well, he doesn't have anything to tap his feet on. He floats. "I want you to kiss her, Dark." Dark snorted. "How the hell am I supposed to do that? You can see me, she can see me, but neither of you can touch me. I can't even touch you." Dark reached out to Mark and his hand slipped right through him. "See? I can't kiss her." Mark sighed. "There is a way, remember? We've done this before many times. It requires more bloodshed...I have to bleed on your mouth, and...we have to kiss in order for that to happen. I'm a bad aim." Dark made a face. "I don't really wanna kiss you." He said. Mark went through his sock drawer until he found his switchblade. "Do it for me. For us. We're tethered, remember?" Dark looked skeptical. "Sure. Anything you say. At least it's not my blood that has to spill." Mark sat on the edge of the bed. With a quick flip, the blade popped out. With a quick slashing motion, he drew the sharp blade across the palm of his other hand. He winced as his blood spilled all over his hand and arm. He wiped his blood onto his lips and leaned into Dark. Before anyone had time to process anything Dark felt the touch of a human for the first time in a long time."Ah, this feeling. I could get used to this." Mark wiped the blood off of his mouth. Dark reached out and gingerly touched Mark's arm. This time, his hand didn't go right through him. It simply rested on top of Mark's warm arm. "Humans are so warm. What is with you guys?" Mark smiled. "Just handle the business, Dark. Quit fucking around." he said. Just remember a few things about people. It's been awhile since we've done this temporary humanization shit. We tend to get afraid if we can feel someone touching us, but we can't see who it is. We also tend to really not like it when things go bump in the night, so mind your manners." Dark transformed himself into a cat. It was cute, but not what Mark was wanting him to do. "Dark, now go to (y/n) and kiss her for me. Let her know that I love her more than she loves me and I cannot wait for her to get back here." Dark heaved a frustrated sigh, snapped his fingers, and disappeared, leaving a black cloud shaped like a middle finger behind.

I was totally focused on Andrew. He was so weak and tired. He could hardly speak to me, but he did manage to give me a weak smile when I seated myself next to his bed. I saw Dark out of the corner of my eye. I looked at him, telling him to wait on me. He gave a nod and backed off, floating in the corner. I started looking at his hands, which strangely looked more alive. Perhaps it was just the angle. I continued holding Andrew's hand until he drifted into sleep. "We should let him rest. The doctors say that he'll go when he's ready, but if he gets enough rest, he could hold on for longer." I reluctantly sighed. I really didn't want to leave him, but it was what was best for him. Dark hid when Indigo and I walked by. I wondered why he was doing that. She isn't supposed to be able to see him. Maybe he's being overly cautious. "Your room is over here, (y/n)." My sister in law said. "I'll get your bags." I entered the room, and Dark popped up right in front of me, startling me a bit. "Hi. How'd it go?" I asked him. "Fine. Mark says that he loves you more than you love him and blah blah blah, he wants me to kiss you." I walked backward. "Dark, I'm with Mark...I know you're kinda the same...but are you sure that's what Mark wants?" Dark rolled his eyes. "I was told to do it." "How can we though? You're basically a ghost." "Yeah...about that...right now, I'm not in my usual form if you will." "What?" Dark reached out and touched my face playfully. I screamed at his touch, partly because his hands were like blocks of ice, and also because he had never been able to touch me before. "What does this mean? Can people see you? What...?" "I'm just as visible as you, but I am still a demon. Always will be, never forget that." I shook my head. "This is weird." I said. "(Y/N) was that you screaming? What's the matter?" It was my sister-in-law. "I saw a spider. I hate spiders." My sister-in-law set my bags down. "I understand that one, I hate them too. I just had to check on you, you screamed like death himself was coming after you." I heard Dark giggle. "No, really I'm okay. I'm going to rest for awhile though. I am so tired. When Andrew wakes up and can stay awake for awhile, come get me, please. I don't care if it's 2 am." She nodded. "Will do. Now get some sleep. Andrew and I are so glad you came...goodnight." "Goodnight." I climbed into bed. Dark swooshed over and hovered over the sheets on his back. "So what do we kiss now or later?" He asked. I made a face. "Never!" "But Mark said-" "Dark you are a literal embodiment of negativity. Give me a good reason to believe you." Dark was stumped. "I'll prove it." He said. He snapped his fingers and suddenly I was standing right next to him and Mark. They were talking...Mark really did ask him to kiss me for him. Dark snapped his fingers again and we were back in bed. "Alright, you win. Just once, and it has to be fast." Dark looked impatient. I gently pulled him in for a kiss, our lips met and it was magical. I could taste the black magic in him. It tasted sour but strangely sweet at the same time. I was addicted to it immediately. The kiss lasted until both of us had to come up for air. "Wow." I said, still feeling the effects of his kiss. Dark smiled. "Sometime soon, we might have to do a little more." I felt guilt. I wanted to, but Mark...I'd much rather have Mark. I didn't answer Dark. "I might be an embodiment of evil, and I'm definitely not a bit like Mark in most respects, but if you want to get technical I am Mark. He knows that. Why do you think he asked me to kiss you? I exist only because he does. It doesn't get more tethered than that." It made sense, and no sense at the same time, but it still felt wrong." I felt Dark's cold arm around me. "Well, think about it (y/n)...let me know. I'm right here with you." I fell asleep with Dark's cold body right next to mine.
