Jackson P.O.V

I slowly opened my eyes, after rubbing them slightly. It was rather bright in the room. I felt arms around me, enveloping me into nothing but warmth and a familiar and comforting scent. I smiled sleepily and turned around, meeting eyes which were already staring down at me.

"Morning." Mark mumbled affectionately, and ruffled my hair, as if it wasn't messy enough. I returned the gesture playfully, making his cute mop of brown hair even cuter.

"Did you just call me cute?" Mark asked, attempting to intimidate me, but failing miserably at that. I always manage to forget his powers. "Yeah." I said like it was nothing. He pouted and moved so he could flop himself on me.

"Owwww Mark you're heavy get offfff..." I whined. He shook his head. "Nuh uh, that's what you get for calling me cute." He said and continued to suffocate me under his weight. I struggled under him.

"Hmph." I pouted and stopped struggling. "Aww... you mad baby?" I seriously can't stay mad at him when he's like this, lord I need help.

I shoved him off of me and this time he got off pretty easily. I turned my back to him. He chuckles and half back hugged me while burying his face into my neck. I shivered at the contact.

"Come onnn... I know you're not mad... forgive me pleaaase??" I finally turned around. "Fine. Just because you're cute." He rolled his eyes and gave up trying to correct me.

"The King requested for my presence at Castle Erebus, you know the main one all royalties live at?" I nodded. Guess I'm being left alone for a while then.

"I'll be gone for a bit. No worries. Just explore the place while you're here." He said and started getting out of the bed. I frowned as the warmth started leaving me. He gave me a kiss on the forehead and stared walking to the door. I stared sleepily at his retreating figure, and snuggled into the blanket as much as I could to attempt getting the warmth back.

I dozed off for a while. After a few minutes, or maybe an hour, I woke up again and decided to get out of bed and look around. I stole a loose black hoodie from hyung's giant closet just because I can, and grabbed a pair of my own black jeans.

It's the first time I actually looked around his room. It was huge, literally the same size as an entire story in my house. The walls were painted black and wine red. The furnitures were made in expensive looking wood and painted black, some were lined with gold.

His bed took up lots of room. The wine red carpet which matches the walls covered an area around his bed. There was a huge walk in closet and a huge bathroom with every fancy thing you can ever find in any fancy bathroom in there.

There was a desk next to a window and a big bookshelf next to it. The room was pretty empty considered how big it was and how little things were put in there.

I walked out the black doors which had pretty golden patterns engraved on them and looked around. There was a long hallway with a few doors. I'm definitely getting lost here. At least hyung's door was special as it had a speckle of gold on it.

I can see a staircase and a red tinted chandelier at one end of the hall, so I headed that way. When I reached the grand spiral staircase, I realized I was on the third floor. I looked around the decorated open area around the stairs. The colour scheme of the castle seemed to be black, white and red.

I traveled down the staircase, admiring my surroundings and I ran into someone. Not literally, I just saw someone on the first floor. As I got there, she knelt down and bowed to me. I was confused and wasn't used to being treated like this, but realized it probably had something to do with Mark.
