Missed

(Kathryn's POV)

   Game stores are heaven on earth. I feel like a kid in a candy store. I find one copy of The Last Of Us left on the shelf. I think I see the guy who Steph said she thought she knew across the store. Mark, was it? I see him eyeing a horror game that I've beat dozens of times. It just happens to be a multiplayer game.I walk over to him, "Do you have anyone to play that with?"

   "No, I was just," he glances up at me. "I was just looking at it."

   "It's really fun. I've beaten it at least thirty times."

   "Do you have it? Like here?"

   "Actually, I do. Wanna come over and play?" I ask.

   "Sure. My name's Mark, by the way," he holds his hand out to shake.

   "Kathryn," I smile and shake his hand. I remember seeing the name 'Markiplier' on the email from Millions Club. "Do you, by chance, have a YouTube channel?"

   "Yeah. I do. Markiplier. Have you heard of it?" He asks. I unlock the hotel door and we head in.

   "Yeah. I'm actually a YouTuber myself. My friend, Stephanie and I have one called Vineless."

   "Stephanie Cross?"

   "Yeah. She says she used to know you."

   "Yeah. We were good friends before she moved," Mark says. I set begin to set up my computer. "I really missed her."

   I stop working on my computer and glance at him, "She missed you too. She didn't say it, but she didn't have to. I could tell."

   Mark met my gaze. Our eyes locked. I lost myself in his hazel eyes. My phone just chose to start ringing. Frustrated, I pull it out of my pocket.

   "Hello?" I ask, anger in my tone.

   "Stephanie's hurt. Come to her hotel room. Hurry," A voice in the other end says.

   "What happened?" I ask. Mark looks just as worried as I probably do.

   "I'll explain when you get here. Hurry."

   I hang up and look at Mark, "Stephanie's hurt. I dont know what happened, but we need to hurry. Come on!"
