Damn the couch. Markus had only been laying there for half an hour and his back felt like a boulder was cracking his spine, and that’s not a nice feeling. The poor android kept on moving around trying to get comfortable on this damn couch, but he was failing. I could just sneak to our room. Though he knew if he did that North would beat him to death with “Blue”, her thirium soda plush, how creative North. Markus or North didn’t even know they existed until Simon got if for her on her birthday, yeah that day was crazy, no one has ever seen North so in love with an object apart from her tennis ball… “Green”.  Yeah if they ever get a child leave the names to Markus, North might name it “Baby”. UGH, I can’t take it anymore. Markus sat up on the couch with a thirium soda printed blanket on his legs. Wow they should just paint the walls with thirium soda at this rate. That’s it I’m going to have to face the hell upstairs if it means I finally get some damn sleep. Markus jumped out of the couch wrapping the thirium soda blanket around his body and trudged up the stairs. While he was climbing he almost tripped on an empty thirium soda bottle, actually there were bottles off it scattered all over the stairs. Oh no not this again. This is what Markus calls “The Extreme Phase”, basically if North hasn’t had thirium soda within a span of two weeks, the second she takes a sip, she drowns in it, no literally drowns in it. In the morning she’s going to be sick like last time. Markus dodged through the endless piles of bottles and reached the bedroom door. RA9 have mercy on me. Markus slowly opened the door to see… hell. Actual hell lived in this room. North was out cold on the bed, she wasn’t even properly sleeping in it, her body just layed over the covers with her legs dangling over the side. Thirium soda bottles surrounded her like some kind of wall. The floor was just as bad as the bed, if Markus wanted to reach the bed he had to make sure he didn’t step on the bottles. He stepped on an empty spot then tip toed over. Come on Markus if you survived the Demonstration, you can surely survive this… and maybe North. He finally made it to the bed, he threw the thirium blanket on North so it was covering her face. Now, how am I supposed to get in it. North covered half the bed,  going to be hard to not wake her up, also that thirium soda bottles made a wall that surrounded her. Markus grunted in frustration and looked around, there was a large empty spot. I guess I’m sleeping on the floor. Markus didn’t bother to take the blanket off North he took a pillow and flopped on the floor, he felt dead. Markus sighed in relief and fell asleep, he fell asleep for a solid six hours until…, he got a foot to the face by North.
