Mark's POV

It was around 8 am that I woke up, I checked in on Dave and he was still asleep. I decided to head downstairs and make some breakfast. I didn't have any small enough cups or plates for Dave so I decided to do a quick ebay search and bought some online. Since they weren't going to be arriving until a few days I used a thimble as a cup and a napkin as a plate that I put a small piece of egg and a piece of bacon. I sighed remembering that Dave was probably still mad at me. I hoped that he would get over that soon. I ate my breakfast downstairs before carrying Dave's meal upstairs.  I put it on the table in his box and waited for him to wake up. 

David's POV

I woke up to the smell of eggs and bacon, it had been awhile since I had that as a meal. Well, any meal in general that wasn't some food a giant left on the ground. I stretched and walked over the the table and sat in the chair provided. I began to eat, and because I am not a morning person I didn't even realize the lid was open and that Mark was watching me. Plus, I hadn't put on my glasses so my vision far away was very blurry.

I finished my meal and I didn't really have any clothes to change into so I sat on the bed and stared at a wall. Once my body finally woke up I drank some water and put on my glasses. I then saw that Mark had been watching me and was immediately glad that I didn't have clothes to change into.

Mark's POV

It had been several minutes but the little dude finally woke up. I could tell that he was a bit groggy due to the fact he didn't realize I was looking at him. He walked over to his food and began eating it, it was after the fact that he had sat down before later realizing I was watching him. I looked at him and smiled, and to that I received a smile back. 

Thank you for breakfast, he said to me. You're very welcome. How did you sleep? I slept okay, he replied. I was happy that he was talking to me and seemed not to be that angry anymore. Can I pick you up? I made sure I asked this time as I was taking note to what Jack had said. 

Um.. Okay.. Please don't hurt me though. He seemed more scared then anything, so I gently pinched the back of his shirt and placed him on my palm, he looked up at me and it was obvious he was freaking out. Was he afraid of heights? I thought about asking him but I didn't want to seem pushy. I just let him sit in my palm for a bit which I hoped would help him get used to being held. He just kept looking at me and I figured he was probably scared of being dropped, so I gave him my ring and pinky finger to hold onto.

David's POV

I thanked Mark for breakfast, because even though things got a bit heated I was glad that he was still calm. He asked me how I slept and even though I didn't sleep that well I told him I slept okay. He then asked if he could pick me up.. 

Um.. Okay.. Please don't hurt me though. I said to Mark. I really hated heights and I really didn't want to be dropped. Something in the back of my mind told me that I would be safe with Mark, and I didn't want to make him mad so I let him. 

He pinched the back of my shirt and lifted me onto his palm, I looked up at him so I wouldn't look down. We sat in silence before he gave me his ring and pinky finger to hold onto. Does he know that I am afraid of heights? I know I got sold but he can't know that much about me.. can he? I thought to myself and wondered about how much Mark knew about me.

I think he noticed that I went into deep thought as he started petting my hair, which was now longer than I would usually let it get. Aww, your hair is so soft!! He exclaimed. I liked people petting my hair so I nuzzled the top of my head into his finger. He looked at me with a face that I cannot explain but I think it was the same face he would make if he saw a puppy. You're so adorable!! He was getting giddy and I could tell.

I was kindof worried he was going to drop me but I held onto his ring finger and looked up in a bit of fear. He then got up from his chair and walked over to his bed. I didn't know what he was doing until he laid down and put me on his chest. I assure you I don't roll over in my sleep, so you should be safe. He smiled at me, I could tell that you were getting scared and I decided it was cuddle time. I hope over time you can learn to trust me.

He put his hand over me pinning me to his chest I heard his heart beat which instantly I started falling deeper and deeper into sleep with each beat.
