This song I feel goes with the end of the story so give it a listen about half way down.

________________________________________________________________________

His mother had freaked out when Mark had brought him home. She blamed Mark for Jack being hurt. Jack tried to defend Mark but his brother had brought him inside before he could do anything. His mom fussed over him for the rest of the night, even though Ms. Fischbach already had taken good care of him. When his father found out later that night, he insisted Jack should learn to defend himself. His brother offered to beat the guy up. Jack tried to fend them off, but Jack's sister started planning revenge. Soon the whole family was trying to decide what Jack should do. Jack started to get angry. They kept saying Mark was a bad influence. They had no clue what they talking about. Mark was Jack's best friend. Mark had saved him.

"Jack your no longer allowed to hang out with that guy. I don't know why on earth you hung out with him before, he's obviously a horrible influence on you, look at you!, and-" his mother started to say and Jack had enough.

"SHUT UP!" He shouted. He couldn't stand it anymore.

"enough all of you!" His whole family stared at him. He was too angry to even realize this was the first time he'd actually spoken to them in a long time.

"Mark is my friend! my best friend He didn't do this to me! He saved me!" He would storm off, but walking was still hard. The whole family was quiet. Then his sister broke the silence.

"Oh my god he speaks." She said in shocked giggle. That made Jack even more angry. That was what she got from that whole thing.

Jack pushed himself off the chair he was sitting and shooed his mother away and ran up stairs. It hurt but he couldn't deal with his family at the moment. He needed time to himself. He ran to his room and locked the door. He laid down on his bed and grabbed his phone scrolling through the messages. There was new text

Mark

Mark:'hey so your mom hates me but we're still friends right?'

Of course they were still friends. Mark was Jack's best friend. He didn't care what anyone said. He wanted Mark to know that. Jack made up his mind. He was tired of not trusting people and mark was not just people he was jack's best friend.

Jack:'Mark your like my best friend no matter what. So yes we're still friends.'

Mark:'awesome! Now how do I get your mom to not hate me?'

Jack giggled.

Jack:'don't worry about it. I've taken care of it. I told her you saved me.'

Mark:'huh I guess I did save you. I'm like your .. superman'

Jack rolled his eyes. Mark was such a nerd.

Jack:'well alright superhero'

Mark:' haha well you're not exactly helpless you know'

Jack smiled. The two boys stayed up the rest of the night texting one another. At some point Jack's mom tried to get him to come out of his room, but he refused.

And now it was Wednesday. Jack stopped talking to his family again. They had been nice enough to give him some space. His mother said that he'd come around. Jack wasn't sure about that really. See, something weird had happened. Mark had started avoiding Jack. At least, at school. They still texted each other, and waved from afar but they hadn't hung out in person since Saturday. Jack was a little worried had he done something. Jack had been able to push away his fears the first two days. maybe mark was busy he has a life other than you jack. then Wednesday rolled around. where is he. it was getting harder to get the bad thoughts out of his head. maybe he figured out I like him. 'but, I'm not gay'. what's going on.
