King (Markiplier x reader)

Chapter 23

Eventually, I told Emilia and Mark that I was fine and ready to get out of the uncomfortable hospital gown. That's probably the main reason why I hate hospitals. I got dressed back into what I was wearing before the accident and we left the hospital. Mind you, it was nine o'clock in the evening, so it was really dark. But as always, the bright lights lit up the glommy city. I sighed, remembering those small moments when I was young.

"Are you OK?" Mark asked. He brought me out of my small daydream.

"Yeah...Yeah, I'm fine." I said.

"HEY JACK, SIGNE!!! SHE'S ALRIGHT!!" Emilia yelled to the darkness, making me extremely confused. All of a sudden, I head footsteps come our way and into the light. It was everyone else. Signe, Jack, Wade, Bob and their slibings. They all came at me, tackling me to the ground. I started to laugh as all the memories with them started to flood back to me.

"Hey guys!!" I said.

"Oh my Christ, (Y/N)!! You can't just go off like that and hurt yourself!" Signe's motherly act came into place as she hugged my torso tighter.

"(Y/N)!!" Wade yelled. "Dude, you get hurt the day after you left us!!" He said.

"Hey (Y/N), what doin'?" Bob, who wasn't hugging me, just hovering me, asked.

"Nothing much, you?" I reply and wiped some tears of joy that manged to fall. "It's so good to see you guys again!!" I said. I finally got the children off me and stood up from where I was and dusted off my skirt. "So, what have you guys have been doing?"

"Worring about your dumbass, dumbass!" Jack repiled, coming out fom behind Bob.

"Come here." I opened my arms for him and almost immediately, he jumped into my arms. I squeezed him hard. I miss this boy. He's the one who gave me life, the one who saved me from the darkest of times. Even though I told him to be strong for me, but now, I have to be strong for him, even I'm so close to bawling my eyes. But now, he was crying on my shoulder. Not to mention, he felt lighter from before.

"Hey, hey. I told you to be strong for me, didn't I?" I said as I pulled away from the hug. His eyes were puffy and red, like his sisters. I used the same technique; using my thumb, to wipe away the tears that have fallen. "Come on, are you gonna break our promise?"

"S-sorry (Y/N). I just missed you s-so much." He managed to say through the tears. I pulled him back into a warm hug.

"It ok. Just, don't cry. Please don't cry." I chocked out, holding back the tears. I can't cry, especially in front of Jack, the person who looks up to me like a big role model. He loves me so much and has so much trust in me that I can't let him down that fast. Unfortunately, we had to part. If we could, we could have hugged for ages. "So, how have you guys been doing?"

"Dude, we're suffering out here." Signe repiled. "We're running out of food and there's nothing new out here because of your self-centered boyfriend called the King." She gave Mark a dead stare.

"Wait, wait, wait. What do you mean 'running out of food'?" I asked and raised and eyebrow.

"It's gotten so hot to grow any crops and the ones that are alive now, aren't really keeping up. And because of that, us older kids had to start eating less and less just for the young ones and elderly." So that's why Jack felt lighter than before. Signe and Wade looked thinner than before. "And because of your boy toy, who keeps all the healthy crops to himself, we're dying." I turned and looked at Mark, with disbelief written all over my face.

"Is this true? Did you know about this?" I asked.

"Wait, (Y/N), you don-"

"I think I underSTAND QUITE ENOUGH MARK!!" I raised my voice. "YOU'RE LETTING THESE KID SUFFER AND NOT GIVE TWO FLYING SHITS ABOUT IT?!" I was really mad. Like, mad to the extent that I'll rip someone's head open if they try to bother me. How can he do this? How can he let these poor people suffer and not care about it? Is this why Emilia always hate him? How heartless can one be?! "Are you seriously telling me that you're letting poor children starve? What is wrong with you?"

"Please, (Y/N), hear me-" I stopped his train of thought once again by sucking up my finger.

"No. All these children are coming with me to have a proper dinner." I said without thinking twice. "Come on guys." The kids started to follow me back to the castle. When we entered the big buliding, we found Amy, cleaning up the door way and stair case. She looked at up with her eyebrow raised.

"(Y/N), who are-"

"Just do me a favour and fetch these children something to eat." She nodded quickly, called some other maids to help and went to the kitchen. Meanwhile, I seated the other at the table and waited for the food.

"So you were saying?" I asked Signe to finish up her thought.

"Yeah...."

--------Time Skip brought to you by my tiredness----------

Soon enough, the kids ate and slowly, one by one, they each fell asleep after a few hours of TV. Well, the only one still awake after that was Jack. We were playing a small game of What If and I was playing with his hair while his head was on my lap.

"Ok, ok. What if.......Signe fell in love with another guy instead of you?" I smirked.

"I'll actually murder the sonuvabitch who wants to steal my girl." I laughed.

"Dude, you're like 14, and you and to murder someone at the age of 14?" I asked.

"Anything for Signe. She's a precious angle in disguise." He blushed and I punched his shoulder.

"You're too sweet Jack. Honestly." Unfortunately, Mark came in and found us laughing. He cleared his throat, only catching Jack's attention since I knew her was there.

"Oh, you're here." Jack said and looked at the man.

"Yeah, I kinda live here, if you didn't notice." Mark kissed his teeth.

"Can you, like, not be an ass for like, two seconds?" I barked. He huffed. I softly pushed Sean's head off my lap so that I could go speak to that man in private. Pulling him by the ear, I pulled the man to the entrance of the castle. "What is your problem?!" I whispered yelled.

"I don't have a problem. It's just, I don't like your bringing random people into my house."

"I don't know what you're talking about, but that's my family right there. And if you have a problem, say it. Right now."

"There are people in my house, eating my food, sleeping on my floor." He said.

"Dude, Egypt is running out of fresh crops and this is the only place for food. Are you that self-centered that you can't even share food that can save multiple lives from famine?!" He kissed his teeth at me. "You're insufferable." I shook my head the left the castle.
