Picking Up the Pieces (Markiplier x reader)

Chapter 50

*A few more weeks later*

Finally, tomorrow was the start to the Christmas holiday. Which means my chance to go back to California and say hi to everyone, and explain what the hell is happening. I already started packing some things, but when I get back home, I have to finish up some things because I'm actually leaving tomorrow. Rachel, Andrea and Jayden also plan on going back to their hometown, New Orleans, for the winter holiday.

"Miss (L/N)!" I heard Mr. Seven's voice boom throughout the room, snapping me out of my little thought. "Are you paying attention?" I nodded.

"Then what did I just say?" Crap. I looked down at my notes to recall anything that he said.

"If working with a new actor, you should get to know them first before actually bossing them around." I attempted to save myself, but he had the look of displease written on his face.

"Please stop daydreaming in class. It's important that you know this." He only said and continued with his lesson. I sighed, putting my chin in my palm and paying attention to the rest of this sixty minute class. I was just very eager to get out and go back to Los Angeles.

"Now before I send you off, I'd like to wish all of you a merry Christmas and Happy holidays. If you're going back home for the holidays, please, spend a lot of time with your family and make every minute worth it. See you in the new year~" Professor Seven said as the bell rung. I qickly gathered my things and was about to dash out the class room. That was until someone called my name. I looked back to see it was Mr. Seven.

"Yes sir?" I asked while walking up to him. He waited for everyone else to leave before continuing on talking.

"Is something wrong? You've dozed off twice in class today. Are you OK?" I only nodded my head.

"I'm alright sir. There's no need to worry about me." I replied, but then I saw him point to my stomach.

"Is it because of little (Y/N) in there?" I chuckled nervously. How does he know I'm pregnant? Did that fool Craig tell him?

"I'm not pregnant, Sir,"

"Oh gosh, I'm so sorry." Regret filled his eyes as he apologized. "Ah, why did I assume you were pregnant? Damn it." He smacked his forehead with his palm and I giggled.

"It's alright Sir." I replied and rubbed my stomach. "I do need to lose weight. But anyways, bye Sir. Have a happy holiday!" I said and turned around to leave. I heard him say the thing back to me as I left the buliding, running into my dorms to finish up packing. Once I got there, I was Rachel also doing what I was doing, packing.

"Hello." She greeted as she stuffed some of her clothes in her suitcase. "Just getting ready to leave, shouldn't you be doing the same?"

"That's what I'm going to do." I replied, and we finshed packing in odd silence. "Hey, you alright?" I asked and looked over her way, worried about my roommate.

"I'm alright, I'm just worried about you." I tilted my head to the side like a confused lost dog. "I'm just scared of what your boyfriend is going to do once you get home. And if something goes bad, I'd be all the way in Orleans and won't be able to help you." I huffed, a small smile forming on my face. I walked up to her and wrapped my arms around the taller female.

"Thanks for worrying about me. Really. But I think I'll be alright." I pulled back to look at her. "I should be the one worrying actually, but it's nice to know that someone else cares about me. You're a true friend, Rachel."

"Pft. It's just a small habit, nothing much," Rachel averted eye contact while blushing. I smacked her arm and continued to pack up some things.

(And here, we have an very accurate representation of me, tyring to get my friends into K-pop or even anime.)

Regretfully, I woke up to the sound of my alarm. It was already one in the morning? I swear I only got two hours of sleep. Oh well. I got out of bed while rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. Seeing as if my flight's is two hours prior from now and I'm really bad at getting shit done on time, I had to wake up two hours early. I grabbed the clothes that I laied out on my dresser and started to strip out of my other clothes, stuffing it into my suitcase while at it.

"Good morning..." I heard a groggy voice speak from behind me with some shuffling.

"You awake?"

"Sadly."

"Nice, wanna go wake up Andrea while you're still there?" I asked while she was at the door, grabbing her towel that was handing off of it. She kissed her teeth before leaving the room to enter the dark hallway. I, in the meantime, continued to change out of my clothes and got ready for my flight, while waking up at the same time. 'Ha, and some say I can't multitask. I'm in my process of waking up while changing.'

"She's awake.." Rachel mumbled while walking aback into the washroom. By now, I was fully awake, unlike her and was actually ready for the flight. As Rachel went into the washroom to shower, I grabbed my purse and sweater and went out to get us some coffee, hoping there was a store opened at this time.

Because of how dark it was outside, my vision was impaired slightly, but with the help of the street lights, I could see where I was going. But I didn't see the person I bumped into. 'I need to stop bumping into people...' I dully noted as I wobbled on my feet to keep my balance. The person reached out to grab my hand before I fell.

"Ah, thank you." I said.

"You're welcome." They replied in a fake deep voice, but then laughed. I slapped them and continued to walk to whatever store.

"It is weird that I find you in the most absurd situations. It's frightening." I commented and entered a nearby gas station, holding the door behind them.

"I'm a person filled with mysteries, (Y/N)." They said while I placed in my order for coffee.

"Nope, you're just plain weird." I said and took the tray of coffee, having them take their cup. "You ready for your flight?"

"Yeah, I wasn't asleep or tired, but thanks for the coffee anyways."

"And that's exactly what I mean by you're weird. You don't even sleep!"

(AN: I have a small sense that these feel rushed. The past few chapters feel rushed. I don't know why, maybe because it's almost new years, maybe because I feel like I've been procrastinating these past few days (since I'm on my Christmas holiday), I just don't know. But ANYWAYS

Thanks for reading,

And I'll see you,

In the next chapter.

BUH-BYE!!!
