Chapter 11: Wilford Suspects

As you ran up the stairs, Wilford gave you a strange look. You slipped past him and hid behind him slightly, holding his shirt sleeve as Dark emerged from the shadows of the basement, slowly trudging up the stairs. Wilford looked at you before looking at Dark, raising his brow when he saw Dark's pink cheek. 

"Something I should know?" He questioned and you shook your head, backing up slightly as you sighed. 

"Just... Don't make me be alone with him again, please." You mumbled out before turning around to see Mark laying on the sofa. 

"Mark!" You cried out, running over to him and kneeling beside him. 

His eyes were closed but opened once he heard you sit besides him. You moved to hold his hand and he squeezed it comfortingly. You scanned his body, noticing that he seemed more... alive even though he was still a bit sweaty. You pushed Mark's hair back from his face, running your fingers through it gently before turning to Wilford. 

"Is he still... Poisoned?" You were relieved when Wilford said he had given Mark the antidote. You turned back to Mark and hugged him tightly, causing Mark to wrap his arms around you, returning the hug. 

Wilford turned to Dark to see him glaring at the scene before them and Wilford smirked. 

"Looks like her heart is already taken, Dark." Dark turned his glare to Wilford and huffed, telling him to shut up.

"You're so angsty." Wilford teased before turning serious, "You didn't have to nearly kill him though Dark, that was a little unnecessary..." 

"It was only a light poison. It wouldn't have killed him for weeks. He would have just felt like he does currently." Dark commented before walking off into the house, having had enough of looking at you and Mark interacting. Wilford watched him go before looking back at both you and Mark. 

"Well, this is an interesting turn of events..." Wilford commented quietly to himself, pulling his phone out from his pocket and texting someone quickly. His phone bleeped, signalling a reply, he read over the message quickly and smirked to himself.
