As the phone began ringing in my hand, I debated on not answering. All that good for nothing ex of mine wants is a piece of ass and I refuse to be that! Looking down at the phone I realized it wasn't Kyle's number. Puzzled I answered the phone.

"Hello?" I ask questioningly.

"Hello," said the voice on the phone. "Is this Emily?"

I cleared my throat. "This is she?"

"Ah good," said the voice. "My name is Mark Fischbach. I know you never expected a call from me, but I've been given your name as someone who can help me improve a few things." Mark Fischbach? The name sounded familiar but she couldn't put her finger on where she'd heard that name before.

"Um, what do you need exactly? I ask because I'm currently on lunch at work and I don't have much longer before I have to get back." I keep racking my brain to figure out how I know his name but it keeps coming up blank. I can't think of any singers, actors, musicians or athletes that have that name so I'm stumped. I decide to boot up my laptop since I have it with me. If anything I can look this guy up so I know why I know that damn name.

"Oh I'm terribly sorry! Would you prefer I call back later? It's something that can wait a little bit so I don't mind." He says apologizing.

"Honestly that'd be preferable. That way we can talk about it and I don't have to cut it short." Well that was a small lie, I mainly said it so I could be able to do a little research on the guy so I know who I'm dealing with and it's not some pervert or criminal. Or for that matter somebody who's working with Kyle to get me back because god knows that would be my luck.

'Would around 2pm work for you? I can call you around then if it does."

"I'm sorry sir but it wouldn't I don't even get out of work until 3:30pm.And I have an aerobics class after that." Not to mention I have to go check on my grandmother after that. I hope she's doing better than she was yesterday but I won't know until I get there. I took a drink of the root beer I had gotten.

"That's ok, how about you call me when you get the chance? You do have my number now after all." He joked. Well I cou- HOLY SHIT! I spit out the root beer. My search for Mark had finally loaded (my computer is so slow sometimes) and I remembered why I knew that name. That name was the actual name of one of my favorite Youtubers of all time; Markiplier! I felt like I could barely breathe!!

"That sounds like a plan. Catch you on the flip side?" I cringed at what I had said. Really Em? Catch you on the flip side?? I sounded like a moron for saying that. All while I was talking to somebody I considered my hero. Ugh. Surprisingly enough though he surprised me with what he did next. He chuckled. He freaking chuckled at what I had said!!

"Oh I will definitely catch you on the flip side Emily." I swear I could hear a smile on his face. Debating on whether or not to say what I was thinking I threw caution to the wind and said it anyway.

"You can call me Em. Well if you want to that is. If you don't that's ok too." Whelp there it was. Whether or not he wants to call me by my nickname is up to him.

"Em it is then. Catch you on the flip side, Em." I swear the smile I picture he had had gotten bigger. Plus I was now sporting one on my face as well. And I knew, well at least I hoped that it would be here to stay.
