facing your fears

When Mark and I ended the video it was about 9:00. "Hey Eden I'll just be here editing until we have to go. Which will be in about an hour." I waved bye to Mark and ran back to my room. I grabbed my phone to watch YouTube. 2 Messages
I checked the messages they were both from Tim.

Tim: You're gonna be gone for two days, really?!? I'll help you so you don't fall behind.

Tim:I just watched marks recent video! YOU ARE HIS DAUGHTER! That's crazy!

Me:How did you see the video mark is currently editing?

I got a reply within minutes.

Tim:what you're in another video?!? He just made a little vid about adopting you. I didn't even know you were adopted. I'm you're bestfriend you need to tell me this stuff!

Eden:yeah,sorry about that. I don't like to talk about it much. Give me one minute I need to see this video.

I quickly got on YouTube and clicked on Marks channel. The video title was 'Adoption' wow mark great title. I watched the video and he explained that he adopted a girl from the local LA orphanage and that he had to adjust to someone else living with him, hence the reason why he hasn't been making new content. God now I feel bad. But I guess I understand. Then he showed a clip of me walking to school. Mark you stalker. Well maybe next time he could tell me when he is taking a video of me. After the video finished I looked at the comments. A lot of them made me smile.
"she is so cute Mark!"
"Awe markimoo is a daddy now!"
"she is one lucky little girl!"
"Mark you truly care about everyone."
"she should totally show up in more Vids!"
Some comments were not so nice.
"oh look another thing to make Mark here look like an absolute angel."
"Mark I didn't know you adopted a seal"
"oh look mark is stalking little girls now"

People can be so mean. I put down my phone and checked my bag, to make sure I had all my stuff packed. Everything is here. I stuffed my laptop in the bag and checked the time, 9:30. So I have 30 more minutes till I have to get on the plane. Plane. That word legitimately shakes me to the core. I have to get on a plane. I have to, for Mark. I just laid on my bed, awaiting until we have to go. "Eden! We have to go! Don't forget your bag!" I heard Mark from downstairs. I sat up, gripped onto my phone and bag, and rushed downstairs. I grabbed my shoes beside the door and slipped them on. Holding onto my stuff I didn't see Mark anywhere in the living room. "Mark?" I called out. "just give me one second!" I believe I heard mark in the kitchen. Shuffling over to the kitchen I saw Mark going through the cupboards. "um Mark what are you looking for?" I peaked my head around the corner. "I'm looking for some,uh,chips." he said still rummaging though the cupboard. Wait, is he looking for the Doritos? "do they happen to be cool ranch doritos?" I said shyly. "yeah! They were for my friend Wade." "I kinda ate them." I said sadly. "oh great. Now wades gonna kill me." Mark said with a sigh. "I-Im really sorry." "It's fine Eden. Just don't tell wade you ate them all or he will tickle you to death, or something." Mark laughed. "come on we got to get to the airport." Mark said ushering me to the door. I held onto my bag and walked outside. Mark closed the door and locked it. Mark had his car parked in the front of the house. I ran to the front passenger door and hopped in. "Great job Mark, the doors are unlocked." I giggled. Soon Mark got in the car and started the engine. "you got all your stuff?" he asked. I nodded and looked at the road ahead. Then we finally drove off. On the way to the airport Mark and I listened to come music on the radio. We jammed out to Flight Facilities-Crave you(Adventure Club Dubstep Remix) and Oh Wonder-Lose It. (Two very good songs) Mark danced around all silly while I listened to the music and kind of worried that Mark was gonna forget to look at the road. But I had so much fun riding and hanging out with Mark. He is such a goofball! After 30 minutes of driving we finally made it to the airport. It was huge! There were so many cars in the parking lot. It seemed super busy. Mark quickly parked the car and turned the engine off. I cautiously grabbed my bag and slid out of the car. Closing my door I saw a little girl across from us dancing around with her parents grabbing bags from their car, and just being plain adorable. She was also bouncing around a little pink ball. Seconds later a boy about may age bumped into her and knocked the ball out of her hands. I saw the ball fly under a car a few feet away. The girl looked around for the ball but she fell to the ground and started to cry because she couldn't find it. No no no, please don't cry. I dropped my bag and ran to the car the ball was under, and retrived it. Holding the ball I walked over to the little girl and crouched beside her. "Hey, I think you dropped this." I said holding out the ball. She looked up at me teary eyed. She caught eye of the ball and stopped crying. Her eyes widened and I handed her the ball. She held onto it with one hand and gave me a hug with her other arm. "Thank you!" she said in the most adorable voice ever. She let go and started bouncing the ball. I waved goodbye and jogged off to Marks car. Mark looked like he was having trouble getting something out of the trunk. "um. Mark, do you need help?" "No! I can do it!" he said shooing me away. "okay, also move the bag a bit to the right then pull, to get it unstuck." I said. He pulled out the bag, finally. "Thanks Eden." he said patting me on the back. "yeah. Mr.ICanDoItMySelf." I laughed and picked up my bag. We started walking to the airport lobby. When we got in we had to wait in a big line to get our tickets or somthing. It took a good hour or so. I kept getting more and more nervous the closer we got to boarding the plane. Going through security was a breeze. I always hated taking my shoes off though. "You hungry for lunch?" Mark asked as we were walking past a few stores. "yeah. I'm actually REALLY hungry." in the corner of my eye I saw a McDonalds. "Mark! Can we go eat at McDonalds?!?" I said excitedly. Their chicken nuggets are the shiz. And who doesn't like fries! Mark sighed "fine. I was hoping to eat healthy but McDonalds has some good food." we started walking to the restaurant and went up to the front counter. "Mark if you want to eat healthy order a salad!" I laughed. "eh. Now I want a McRib though." Mark said. "um. Excuse me. What could I help you two with?" we turned to see a friendly looking lady in front of us, behind the counter. Mark straightened up,"hello, can we have um. Eden what would you like?" Mark said looking down at me. "may I have a 10 piece chicken nugget, 1 large fry, and a medium sprite to drink. Oh and can I have 2 packets of buffalo sauce!" "okay, now sir are you ordering?" the lady turned to Mark. "yes, may I have 1 McRib, 1 large fry, and a large Coke." "Is that all?" she questioned. Mark nodded. "That'll be 15.96 and what's your name,sir?" Mark paid and told her that his name was Mark. We found a seat and waited until our food was ready. "I want to eat healthy my butt." I laughed. "quiet. The McRib is good." Mark said looking though his phone. "Order for Mark!" the lady yelled and Mark ran up to grab the tray with our food. Mark put the tray on the table and I quickly started stuffing food in my face. After we were done eating we had to sit in some waiting room or whatever. I think it was called the boarding area, I really didn't pay attention. It was a big room a with a ton of chairs and lots of people. There were windows everywhere. Mark and I took a seat and started playing on our phones. "Eden we have about an hour until we get on the plane. How are you feeling?" Mark said laying his phone on his lap. I looked up from the YouTube video I was watching. "I'm nervous to say the least." I looked back at my phone. "I promise you'll be safe." Mark pulled me in for a hug. When we were done with our little moment we went back to our phones. After finishing my vid I looked up to see three teenage girls a few rows of chairs in front of us pointing at Mark. What the hell? They looked really happy. Then they started walking over to me and Mark. They stood in front of Mark and completely ignored me. "um excuse me Mr.Fishbach." The taller girl of the group said. Mark looked up and smiled. "yes?" one of the girls faces got really red. "Can we have your autograph?" The same girl asked. "sure." Mark said standing up. The same girl that was blushing or whatever earlier looked like she was about to faint. Mark signed their little books and stuff, and took selfies with them. I kinda just sat there, watching. So this is a fangirl? They don't seem as crazy as I have heard. Mark waved goodbye to the girls as they sat back down in their seats giggling and gossiping. Mark just laughed and sat back down. After less than an hour of being on our phones, it was finally time to leave. "Everyone on flight 156 to Seattle board now." Mark and I sat up and walked to the line that formed in front of our gate. We eched closer and closer to the front of the line. A flight attendant lady took our tickets and let us board. I started to hyperventilate. I'm getting on a plane. A plane. Just calm down Eden. I stepped onto the plane and found our seats. I didn't sit by the window, I was too scared too. Mark sat right next to me and rubbed my back in an attempt to comfort me. I took a deep breath and calmed down. Mark and I buckled our seatbelts. "we will be taking off shortly." a man on the intercom said. Okay, Eden just stay calm. You're doing this for Mark. The plane started to move forward and gain speed. I started to shiver in fear. I quickly grabbed my ear buds and turned on some music.

Downtown we let it go
Sunset high and our bodies low
Blood rush in the hazy glow
My hands, your bones

Loose up we break the scene
One step deep as you fall to me
Heart clap, we skip a beat
Count one two three

I tuned out the world and tuned into the music.

And don't you stop the music
Get into it
Won't you dance with me?

BTW the lyrics are to lose it!
I wrote 2000 words!! This is to make up for the inactivity. I love you guys!
