Chapter Thirty Four.

Amy's Point of View:

     When you wake up the morning after something stressful has happened you feel calm because you know you're safe inside your own home with your own things but there's still a little anxious feeling in the pit of your stomach because you know it happened and nothing is stopping it from happening again. That's how I felt when I woke up the morning after Eve emergency texted me that we need to go to the hospital. I could hear someone downstairs and the floors in the house creak but I don't open my eyes because the little ping of anxiety is still in my stomach, Long after the anxiety inducing thing is gone. I can feel Mark's fingers dancing up and down my back slowly and softly, A feeling I feel comforted by and a feeling I have gotten so used to. Mark helps with these types of anxious feelings, He knows what to do and even if he didn't his presence is enough. I feel Mark's lips gently press to my forehead, A feeling I can't get enough of and something I don't want to end. Sometimes little things like this are gentle reminders that you need to be at peace with what happened and that it's over. I brave myself and open my eyes, Telling myself that I can brave today and tomorrow and the next day. 

     "Good morning" I can tell Mark is still shaken up but putting a brave face on. I reach up to kiss his lips, Slowly but forcefully. He responds by putting his hands on either side of my face and beginning to kiss me with more power. I put a hand to his chest and push back gently, Looking up at him to smile "Good Morning" I peck his lips once more before snuggling myself back into his chest. I feel my hair pull slightly, Not painfully just recognizing it's no longer laying loosely across my pillow. I feel his finger take the small portion of hair, Wrapping it around his finger then gently letting it go, allowing it to lay loosely against my pillow once more. He does this a few more times and I still snuggle into his chest, Breathing in his scent like it's the last time I'll ever see him. I pull myself away from his chest and look up into his big brown eyes "I love you" I whisper and raise my hand to rub his cheek slightly. A smile appears proudly across his unshaven face "I love you too, beautiful" and then with that back to my normal position, Buried deep within his chest where the anxiety is unable to reach.

     A knock against my wooden door is what wakes me up from my sleep. I prop to one elbow and turn to see Mark sit up completely beside me, Realizing he's also just woken up. "Can I come in?" Ethan's voice comes through the door weakly but i can still make out what he says. "Sure" I sit up beside Mark and lean against my headboard, One that I stole from my college dorm because I was too cheap to buy a new one "What's wrong bud?" I ask as he leans against the door frame, Causing it to creak slightly. "It's nine thirty and I was just wondering if you had heard from Kat?" His tone raises and then lowers. I look to Mark just to make extra time because I have no idea where she may be. I went up stairs right after Ethan then Mark right behind. I didn't see Kathryn walk up. "Sorry but no I don't know where she may be" I reach over grabbing my cell before seeing no notification from her. "Have you tried calling?" I look to Mark and can tell he's nervous "You know our phones have find my phone righ-" Mark's interrupted by a slamming door and loud stomps quickly coming up the steps before more loud stomps and the door beside mine slamming shut, Causing my wall to shake.

     "He's an ass!" I yell pulling off another piece of chocolate and popping it in my mouth. "I know!" Kathryn  yells back, Pulling the duvet up past her shoulders. "Sorry excuse for a boyfriend" I shake my head mad "Lets toilet paper his place" I plop the last piece of chocolate before grasping the wrapper and crumpling into a ball, tossing it by the bin. "Lets do it!" She yells half laughing. It's good that she's laughing, An hour ago she couldn't breath she was crying so badly. "Let's put his stupid texts on the internet, For the world to see" She sits up smiling, Letting the duvet fall to her lap. I sit up forcefully, letting the duvet fall "Yeah!" I playfully punch my arm into her mattress before raising my knuckles to my chest holding it "Ow!" Kathryn laughs and falls back to her pillow. "I'm happy you're feeling better" I turn slightly so I face her, Smiling at her appeared smile "More ice cream?" I ask and she nods gently against her pillow. I hop off the side of her bed and grab her empty ice cream bowl before opening her door and padding down to the kitchen. Today's been one of those types of days where you stay in your pajamas and do nothing. Once Kathryn came home in tears I went to be by her side immediately, Not caring what Mark and Ethan did. "What are you two fellas up to?" I peek over into the living room before going to the freezer and getting whats left of Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia. "Pre filmed" Mark says. "Played video games" Ethan says. "Played video games" Mark says. "Edited" Ethan says. "Well. Once exciting day you two have had" I throw the empty carton away before grabbing the bowl and walking to the living room. "How's Kathryn holding up?" Ethan pauses the game and Mark looks up from his laptop. "Nothing a little girlie talk and cherry Garcia can't fix" I raise the bowl slightly "She's feeling a lot better. No more crying and I actually got her to laugh a few minutes ago" I lean against the door frame and Mark and Ethan smile. "Let us know if you guys need anything" Mark says with a shy smile still spread along his face. "Will do" I nod my head towards them before turning around on y heels, Making my way back up to the brokenhearted. 

I actually did it. I stayed a week without breaking my update schedule. I know I have before it's just been a while.
