Loss Of Innocence (Darkiplier X Jacksepticeye)

Bonus 2 (Nate)

Nate's POV

I whistled a tune as I walked home.

I passed through a grave yard, and stopped dead in my tracks. Two girls were hanging around a curtain grave. Jacks grave. One was crying, and the other was comforting her.

I walked over, and looked at them.

"H...hi.." one said to me. I walked over. The taller one was facing me now, and the shorter one was sitting on the ground, head in knees.

"I uh... you watched him...?" I guessed. She nodded.

"Yea.." the one said. The other still hadn't moved from her position on the ground.

This was my fault.

"We just saw Mark.. he headed home, though." I felt something, something like fear, burrow in my stomach. I chose to ignore it though.

"I'm Nia." The one standing up stuck out her hand.

I shook it, and felt tears prick my eyes as I looked down at the girl on the ground.

Th pain I caused everyone.. Mark... them..

The girl looked up at me. Her eyes looked like they were full of hate. I instantly knew she was a hater. She probably hated my channel in the beginning.

She stood up, and walked the four feet to me.

"Marks upset. He was crying when we saw him." She says. She stepped closer, and I squeezed my eyes shut, fully expecting a punch in the face, balls, or stomach. "Nathan Sharp, you don't deserve the weight on your shoulders. Jack didn't deserve to die. Mark doesn't deserve to live without h-"

"But I killed him." I say, tears fully coming out.

"You didn't do it. I mean, yea, but it wasn't because you wanted to. I've been watching your videos for awhile... and, believe me, I know you wouldn't want to do that. Mark doesn't blame you..... I've seen the hate, saying you should be in jail, how you should be dead... their wrong...." I felt her arms wrap around my torso, and squeeze. I hugged back, and cried.

Cried because she was right. Cried because of everything that happened. Cried because Sean William McLaughlin died, and I didn't. Cried because I loved two men I couldn't have. Cried because Mark loved Sean. Cried because I wanted a hug from someone all along. Cried because that hug was from a stranger. Cried because I knew something horrible would happen, and I couldn't tell anyone.

"Sophia, I hafta go home... I'll see you tomorrow." Nia says. But first, wrapped me into a hug, leaving... Sophia in the middle of us. She pulled away. "Oh and Nate?" I looked up at her. "I never watched you that much... but I know your a good guy." She smiled at me, and walked away.

Then her phone buzzed. So did one in Sophia's pocket.

She walked away, and Sophia silenced it.

"Nate, I'm a really big fan.. of you, Mark, and still Jack.." she started. "I want you to know... it's really not your fault. You didn't want to kill him. I know you didn't.. meeting you is an honor. I never thought I'd meet you... and especially not like this.." she looked up at me, smiling. "Nate, are you gay?" I burst out laughing.

"Why?"

"Ohhh just because I ship you with Matpat. Natepat is my OTP. Next to Septiplier, of course. So I wanted to know if you were gay."

"Do you think Mat is gay?" I asked, interest suddenly filling me. I know I couldn't have him, though.

Steph probably liked him or something.
