Mark looked at Felix with his mouth slightly open
"Your staying here?!" Mark looked at them with raised eyebrows
"I'm not driving back" Felix said, Felix and Daniel both had they're mouths full of pickles, Mark sighed
"My bedroom's the only one with stuff in it..." Mark looked at Jack and shrugged
"You can use my bedroom" Jack looked at Felix and Daniel
"Well I'm not sharing a room with blondey over here" Felix messed with Daniel's hair and Daniel swatted at his hand
"Hey! you know I'm one of the blonde boys" Daniel laughed while fixing his hair he took his glasses and cleaned them on his shirt. Mark looked around then looked back at Felix
"What about the couch?" Mark looked at Felix and Daniel with a raised eyebrow
"You have a couch?" Felix smiled and Daniel smirked, Mark smiled and shook his head as he rubbed his forehead
"Yeah I'll take it" Felix started to walk towards the front door, Daniel followed. Mark looked over at them confused, they walked outside Mark and Jack tagged along slightly confused.

Felix pulled suitcases out of his car, Mark dropped his shoulders and rubbed his eyes
"I guess You guys were planning on staying here" Mark looked at them with raised eyebrows
"I didn't come here to leave" Felix said while he and Daniel carried the bags in and set them in Jack's room. Mark went into the kitchen to find something to eat, Jack shut the front door and ran to catch up with Mark. Mark went through the fridge and found a container of chili he held it up in front of Jack
"Soup?" Jack asked
"No, chili..." Mark smiled
"Ok!" Jack smiled happily, Mark put the chili in a pot and placed it on the stove
"Normally I would make homemade stuff, but I just wanted easy meals" Mark turned around and smiled Jack got closer to Mark
"I would love to cook with you" Jack's cheeks reddened as he smiled
"You'll get to..." Mark smiled
"Promise?" Jack leaned into Mark
"Promise" Mark kissed Jack's nose, Felix started walking down the hall into the kitchen. Jack backed up away from Mark and leaned against the fridge. Felix walked in holding his phone
"the wifi sucks here" Felix looked up from his phone
"I haven't checked my phone" Mark pulled his phone out of his pocket and turned it on, he had multiple missed calls from Felix and Amy
"I'll go check the wifi outside, can you keep an eye on that?" Mark pointed at the chili on the stove
"Yeah" Felix rolled his eyes. Jack looked at Mark and smiled, Mark smiled back.

Mark started walking towards the front door, Jack stepped down the hall without Mark noticing. Mark looked to the side in Jack's room and saw Daniel in his phone happily petting Chica. Mark opened the front door and walked outside closing the door behind him. Mark turned his phone on once again and dialed Amy's number. Jack cracked open the door behind Mark and slightly tilted his head to the side. The phone rang while Mark stood with his hand on his hip
"Hello..? Mark!" Amy screeched through the phone
"Oh my god are you ok?! Where are you?!" Mark was almost frightened by Amy's voice
"Yeah I'm ok... I'm fine it's ok" Mark could here Amy sighing in relief
"Where are you Mark?" She said in a calm soothing tone
"I'm with Felix and Daniel... don't worry" Mark said trying to comfort Amy
"I want you to come back Mark... I'm sorry... I just... I don't know what happened" she was starting to cry
"Look it's... hard to explain, I just want to make sure your ok I'm sorry all of this happened" Mark said sincerely
Jack frowned while he listened through the slightly cracked door. Felix walked down the hall looking at Jack
"I think the food is hot enough now" Felix said crossing his arms
"Ok" Jack said softly and quietly closing the door while Felix walked into the kitchen, Jack followed.

Felix began plating the food, Jack layed his arms on the counter and set his head down "why is it taking him so long? his food is ready" Felix looked over at Jack with a raised eyebrow
"He's On the phone with... Amy" Jack looked up at Felix
"Oh... She's kind of a Bitch... don't tell Mark I said that" Felix lightly smiled, Jack started to giggle
"I'm serious don't tell him" Felix laughed and handed Jack his bowl of chili, he stood up straight and grabbed the bowl. Jack walked over to the living room and set his food down on the table, he fell down onto the couch and looked at Felix walking towards him and smiled. Jack noticed Mark still didn't come in he was talking to Amy in such a loving and soft tone it made Jack's stomach churn, Mark was sorry all of this happened.

Jack faced the tv and could feel the tears bursting from his eyes. Felix rushed over setting his bowl down
"Are you ok?!" Felix stood in surprise
"There's a reason why I was in that hospital..." Jack whispered covering his face in tears, Felix opened his mouth wanting to say something but didn't know what
"God... Mark won't be able to go home" Jack looked at Felix trying to cover his face
"We'll just keep running... people are looking for me, and if they find me or Mark I'll never get to see him again..." Jack's cheeks were slick and puffy while he wiped the tears streaming down his face
"How... how do you know that's what's going to happen?" Felix looked at Jack with a concerned and scared look
"If Mark doesn't go to prison he'll just... go live with Amy and forget that I exist, rotting in some other hospital" Jack's voice deepened while he looked at his hands shaking.

"Jack Why would you..." Mark rapped around the corner with a disappointed look
"None of that will happen..." Mark started slowly walking towards the couch, Felix looked at Mark with a raised eyebrow and stood up as he walked past Mark down the hall not wanting any part. Chica ran down the hall and sat down in front of Jack, he looked at Chica then turned his head to the side
"I won't let anything happen to you" Mark said knowing it wasn't enough
"How..? Wouldn't you rather be free away from this bull shit..?" Jack said whimpering in fear and anger
"No" Mark looked down
"No?" Jack turned to look at Mark and dropped his eyebrows
"I don't want to see Amy right now...
I don't want to see Ryan either, I don't want to go home there's a reason why I'm here..." Mark eyes grew shiny as he tried to look at Jack
"All I can think about is... you" Mark walked closer to Jack and sat down beside him
"I didn't turn you in..." Mark said in a scratchy voice, Jack hesitantly layed his head on Mark's shoulder and Mark rapped his arm around Jack pulling him closer
"Why is this happening to me?" Jack's eyes were too dry to form anymore tears while Mark placed his head on Jack's
"This is exactly why..." Mark closed his eyes and tightly hugged Jack while Chica layed in front of them.
