The Reign Of Darkiplier

Chapter 40: Fear

Is Mark really back or is that still Darkiplier toying with me? I really don’t know what to do right now. I feel so tired and scared. I don’t want any mind games anymore.

“Mark?”

“Yes, I’m here now.”

Tears started to fill my eyes. I can’t believe this. Why am I crying in front of Mark? This is so embarrassing.

It’s really him. There’s no doubt. He’s back, but I feel so angry right now. I don’t know why. Is it maybe because I thought that he’s gone? Is it maybe because I thought that I failed him and I thought that I was really going to die?

“Get away from me, Mark! I have had enough of this!” I quickly got up and turned my back on him. I don’t want him to see me cry right now. I can’t stop my tears.

“What’s wrong, Yami?”

Mark sounds so concerned right now. I can’t take this. I don’t want his sympathy. He doesn’t even know yet that I love him.

I feel so mad at him right now. I think I’m trying to mask my feeling of fear. Yes, I hate to say it to myself but I am afraid of Mark.

After so much of this hardship from Darkiplier, I know that Mark is capable of hurting me. What if Darkiplier got back again? I don’t know how to trust Mark anymore.

It’s so painful. I don’t want to hate him. I love him so much.

I slowly felt Mark’s arms close in around me and seal me in a warm hug. I didn’t struggle this time. I just let him hold me as I cry my tears away. I just can’t resist Mark.

“Yami, you’re safe now. Don’t worry. I won’t let you get hurt again. I am here to protect you…”

I turned around and looked at Mark in the eyes. All feelings of hatred and fear went away. I really love him.

“I’m really nervous to tell you something because I don’t know how you’ll react, but here goes…… I love you, Aaron. I mean it. I love you so much.”

I was caught off guard. I was speechless. I don’t know how to react. Mark immediately pulled me in to kiss me. It was so passionate and full of love. It was so comforting. I just let him kiss me, as I slowly processed in my mind that I finally know that he loves me.

I feel so happy and fulfilled. His words made me feel a lot better. I am glad that Darkiplier is defeated. Mark really saved me.
