/|~Mark Your Territory~|\

~26~

Jin POV
Mark took Emily. And I let him. I let him take her. Maybe I shouldn't have. I should have held onto her. I should have told her to meet me somewhere else. Well, what's done is done. I know she loves him. And I'll have to except that. One day....maybe one day....in another life. We'll meet again, and be together. Let's just hope I made the right choice to let her go....
Now only one thing left to take care of......
Crystal.

Crystal POV
Next step...complete. Now all I have to do it wait.

Mark POV
I'm sorry I hurt you Emily. You know that I wouldn't hurt you. I would never hurt you. But...why was she with Jin? She was probably depressed. And...needed a friend.

Emily POV
Did I make the right choice? Was it right for me to forgive him? Was what my heart telling me the right choice? Feeling this hurt pain in my heart? Was it love? Or was it depression?
Could I trust Mark? Could I trust his words? Could I trust his heart?

Mark|~
"I love you Emily...."
Emily|~*am I ready to say it? N-no not yet...* "M-me too."

Mark brings Emily into a tight embrace.

Mark|~. *Her sweet little body against mine. Her scent....our warmth becoming one. It was...Just Right.*

Emily|~. *his warm chest, one of the warmest I've ever laid on....Jin was second. Yes Mark could be cold hearted, and act cold...but inside, he's a helpless puppy looking for love. I feel like I'm the first to feel his warmth. I loved it. Then it hit me....*
"Mark!......Where's Jin?"

Mark slowly released her, holding onto her wrist. The warm smile disappeared and was replace by a cold expression. His grip tightened, and he started dragging her upstairs. To his room.

Emily|~"M-Mark!?!"

Mark pulled Emily into the room, and threw her on his bed. He went back to close and lock the door. Emily stood up and walked towards him. Mark grabbed her shoulders and sat her back down on the bed.

Mark|~"Sit here."
Emily|~"M-Mark....why are we in your room?"
Mark|~"What do you think?
Emily|~*dirty thoughts*
Mark|~*as if e's reading her mind* "Don't worry Em, I'm not gonna do anything to you......"
Emily|~*exhales sharply* "phew~"
Mark|~ "yet..." *gets up and walks towards his closet*
Emily|~"........"

Mark goes into his closet and pulls out a box. He brings it to Emily....and opens it. Emily's eyes widen....seeing.....

Pictures
Clothes
Packaged snacks
A camera
Books
And a pair of worn out shoes
"Mark?.....What are these?"

Mark|~ "What about them?"
Emily|~"Why am I in these photos.....? Why are these my clothes? Why is this my camera? These are my favorite books and snacks, and....my shoe.....?! Why are all of my stuff here....?"
Mark|~*stares at her, says her name....in a specific way, in a deep tone.....*
"......Emily........"

Emily looks up at Mark, with a confuse yet shocked expression.

Emily|~ "m--Mark.....?"

*A massive headache kicks in**Emily faints and falls to the ground*
