Jacks pov
I wake up to someone shaking my shoulder. I groan and open one eye to see Ace, with two coffee cups in their hand. One white one that says '#1 boss' and one blue and black one with a dimond pattern. I take the white coffee mug and silently thank them. they nod and sit on the floor, back to the recliner with Haley in the recliner also with a coffee mug.
Haley pets Aces hair as the other pulls out their book. It was silent and peaceful. I look down at Mark. "What do we do when he wakes up?" I quietly ask. "He'll most likely be skittish at first so we'll wait and try to gain his trust, then bath him to clean any dirt that's gotten into the wounds, patch him up, and feed him." Ace replies. their voice has always been quite low so they didn't really need to whisper.
I nod. We all continued our things. We finish our coffee and Ace takes the mugs to the sink. Mark starts to stir. "Guys, he might be waking up." I said. They both draw thier attention to Mark.

I wake up, but dont open my eyes. I feel something soft and warm around me and hear little hearts beating. I'm not in that ally way anymore. Where am I? Who took me? What are they gonna do to me? I slowly open my eyes to see a two young girls staring at me.
one of the girls was much taller though. I look up and see a grown man with bright green hair. I immediately scramble off the mans lap and shake in fear. "W-where am I?" I ask cowardly. "Its okay, We found you on the streets hurt, so we took you home." The shorter girl says.
"I'm Ace, this is Haley and Jack." She said. I was still shaking. The girl sighed and sat across from me in a respectable distance. She sat there reading a book, not doing anything else. "Ace, what are you doing?" The other girl --'Haley'-- whispered, but I could hear fine with my sensitive hearing.
"We can't force him to do anything, all we can do is wait til' he's ready." 'Ace' whispers back. Haley nods and sits next to her, her head on his shoulder. The grown man still on the couch was on what my old master called a 'cell phone'.

Ace's pov
We sat like that for at least twenty five minutes. Thats when Marks head blocked my page. He looked at me with weary curiosity. I smiled kindly at him. He sniffed and rubbed at my hand. I gently pet his head. He smiled and purred. "Are you more comfortable now?" I ask.
Mark nods. "Okay Mark, your hurt and dirty, so Jack is gonna clean you and after I'll patch up your wounds. Sound good?" I ask. He nods again. "Great." I say. "Wait, why me?" Jack asks. I give him a 'really' look. He sighs. "Fine."

I run some warm water in the tub. I hear a hiss from behind. I look at Mark to see him looking hatefully looking at the water. "Okay Mark, you need to undress." I said. "Why?" He asks. "'Cause ye' can't get in t' bath with clothes on." I say. He grumbles. "I don't like water." He said.
"Well you need take a bath." I say. I slowy take off his shirt and pants and through them in a hamper. He wasnt wearing underwear. "Okay, get in the tub Mark." I said. He grumply got in the bath. Finally.
I grab a measuring cup, scoop some water and dump it on his head. His hair falls on his face and his ears go down. I chuckle and brush his hair back. He looks at me with unamusement. I laugh. I pour some shampoo on his head and rub it in.
He purrs as I do. I rinse his hair and do the same thing with the conditioner. I pull the plug to let the water drain. I grab a towle and motion for Mark to get out. He hopped out and I dryed him off. I told him to wait.
I came back with a long sleeved white shirt, black pj pants, boxers and black socks. I help dress him, carful of his injuries. We walk out off the bath room and see Ace and Haley on the couch. Ace looks our way and smiles.
"Okay Mark, now I'm gonna take care of your cuts and bruises." they say. Mark nods and sits in front of them. Ace grabs a bandage roll and does their thing. In just a few minutes they were done. "Wow, how do you do that so fast?" Mark asks, poking the badged spots. "Experience." Ace shrugs.
"Are you hungry, Mark?" Haley asked. Marks started to drool and nodded. Haley went to the kitchen and came back with a plate of fish and milk. "Here." She said. Mark didnt even take the plate and started to eat like a beast. the poor thing, he must of been famished.
He finished the fish and kitten licked in the glass. He licked his lips and smiled. "Thank you!" Mark purred. "Hehe, no problem." Haley says. Haley goes to put the dish away. Ace goes back to reading their book. Mark goes and lays on their lap. "Ace, why are you and Haley so close?" Mark asks.
"well, that is because we are best friends and lovers." Ace said. "You two are cute together." Mark says. "Thank you Mark, not a lot of people agree with that." Ace said. "Why? Whats wrong with two people loving each other?" Mark asks. "Most people believe that only a Male and Female can love each other and any other is false advertising." Ace says.
Haley had came in with a cup of green tea. Mark looks at her confused. "that's horrible! what's so bad with two girls being together? you two are not causing any harm!." Haley spit out her drink and I froze. Aces eye twiched a lil. "Mark," Ace closed their book, "that is a very good statement, but I am not a girl." they said.
"But...you have breasts." Mark says. "despite my body parts I do not identify as female. my body does not identify who I am. I wish to change myself someday with surgery, until then I wear this." Ace said and left to room for moment. later they returned wearing their binder. Mark poked at the material. "Ohh, I get it." Mark says. Ace was chanting to themself 'he doesn't understand' while Haley tried to calm them down.
This is gonna be a long day...
