Sudden Parenthood {ChildYouTubers x Reader}

Chapter 6

(Y/n) P.O.V.

I lock the door behind me, and splash water on my face over the sink. There a knock at my door. "(Y/n), do you want to talk about it." Amy asks. "No, I'm okay. Thank you Amy." I say, trying to keep my voice from cracking. I hear her footsteps move away from the door, so I take the time to let the tears fall. I keep my sobs quiet and to a minimum, trying to keep strong for the kids outside. I sit on my bathtub edge, and take deep breaths, when a suddenly Anti appears in the room in a glitch. I shriek, and fall back into the tub. "Yo, you good." I sit up quickly. "Yeah, you, Uh, startled me." He laughs, and sits next to me on the bath edge. "You're upset." "I'm fine." "Liar." It's quiet. "Part of me feels that they are right. That I am messed up. My whole life, I took care of others, never took care of myself, and pushes away those who didn't need me to help them or tried to take care of me. If that's not messed up, I don't know what is." I sigh. "It's not messed up. It's not weakness. It's not strength either. It's who you are. Maybe you do need to let someone take care of you, or you take care of yourself, for a change, but it's not messed up." Anti reassures.

I laugh a little. "You're actually nice." I praise. "If you tell Dark, I'll kill you." "Sure ya will." It's silent again. "Do you want me to kill that person?" He asks. I double over, laughing. "No, Anti. I appreciate the effort, but that's a bit much. Plus, you're like four or five right now." He shrugs. I lift him up, and walk out of the bathroom. He accepts it, which surprises me, but I don't question it. I go into the living room to see them all watching the TV. "Are you okay?" "We'll fight that person." "They're outta line, don't listen to them." I'm bombarded by them, but it makes me feel better. "I'm okay, guys. Promise." I set Anti down, and he runs over to sit on floor by the couch. Jack decides Anti is too close, and moves away towards Mark. Mark, still angry and him, moves away from Jack, making Jack look down sadly. "You know it's not his fault, Mark." I simply state. Mark just crosses his arms, and turns away. I sigh. I grab the hands of both Mark and Jack and take them into the kitchen. "Mark why are you upset with Jack?" "Because he knew about the existence of something that could have killed me, and didn't tell me!" Mark exclaims. Jack tries to speak, but I hold out a hand to silence him.

"Well, Jack already said that he didn't know your egos existed too. And you can't just ignore him. That's how you lose friends, and you get hurt or hurt others. You need to talk it out and resolve the issue instead of avoiding it." I lecture, reflecting on past experiences. Mark looks down, though I don't know if it's in shame or defiance. I feel like this is something Mark would know. How much longer until they are truly just children? "Jack tell him your side of the story." Jack nods. "Mark, I'm sorry that I didn't tell you. I really didn't know if your egos existed too, or even that you didn't know." Mark looks about ready to cry. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be mean." He sobs. Jack and Mark hug in reconcile. I sigh in relief. Them not getting along is the last thing I need. "Alright, I'm glad that's solved, boys." I say, group hugging them. "And for the record, you really don't need to be scared of Anti and Dark. They won't hurt you. Especially with me around." I mutter the last part, and they don't hear it. "Just try to make friends." I encourage. "Last time I tried to make friends with Anti he spilled hot coffee on me like a motherfucking cat." Jack grumbles, but nods anyways. The pair make their way back to the couch. 

I see from the doorway, all the littles sitting comfortably on the couch watching whatever Disney movie is on TV. I have a feeling I know what's going on, but I can't leave them alone, and I don't want to take them. Anti and Dark seems adult enough, but I really don't think they're child equipped. I consider for a mere second contacting me ex before realizing they are in fact my ex now. But I need to go and figure out for sure. I decide I have to call a sitter. "Dark, Anti." I whisper yell to catch their attention alone. Luckily the two turn their heads back towards me. I beckon them into the kitchen. "What is it?" Dark asks, seemingly annoyed by being pulled away from the movie, which catches me a little off guard. "I need to go out and check something...alone. I'm going to call a sitter, but I need you two to promise to keep demons things to a minimum, and make sure they don't spill the bean. Please, this might be an answer to our problems." I practically beg. Dark looks at me suspiciously. "What is this errand? If it can help, shouldn't we know?" Dark asks. "Uh, listen, if I'm right, I'll explain, I promise. As long as you hold your end of the bargain." "Deal." Dark sighs. "Anti?" I ask. "Ugh, fine!" He groans. "Thank you, and please don't fight. I'm trusting you." I tell them, grabbing my phone to call a coworker for help.

After leaving the coworker with the kids, I made my way to the beach. On the beach in a rocky overhang off a cliff, there is a large cavern. Most people don't know about it, but I was my special place to hide and clear my head as a kid. And I also happen to know it's where she lives. She has always been out for me, though I don't know why, so I figure she could have done this. I enter the cave. It's lit with pale blue lighting that almost seems to reflect from the pool of water in the center. I see her leaning over a table. It's like she was expecting me. Maybe she was. "Meteora." I say. My copycat turns around with a smirk. "Well well well if it isn't the worse version of me." She says tauntingly.
