Mark and I have been together for two years, he was a complete goofy sweetheart.

We actually met through Sean, we bonded quite quickly, of course we knew that Sean was playing matchmaker.

But, lately... I've noticed that Mark wasn't acting like.. Himself.. He told me that he's been having strange dreams..

I began to worry about him, he would just stay up all night, he'd act like an emotionless zombie when ever he filmed. Not like him at all.

I would even catch him talking to himself, muttering things I couldn't understand.

But, every time I'd ask him about it, he'd snap out of it. Seemingly back to normal.. But somehow not..?

Mark laid next to me, sound asleep, his breathing was normal. It was as if he hadn't been acting weird.

I sighed and ran my hand through his hair. "Oh markimoo what's going on with you?"

He smiled in his sleep and rolled over, wrapping one arm around my hips.

I sadly smiled and kissed his forehead, then I stood up gently removing his arm.

I tucked the blanket around him and walked out of our room, leaving the door cracked in case he woke up.

I was washing my hands after I went to the bathroom, I was looking down at my hands while I washed them when in the corner of my eye the mirror had cracked.

"What the hell?" I return my gaze to the mirror, seeing a small crack in the center. It was strange.. It had a red and blue echo around it...? Almost like a 3D effect?

I was startled when two arms wrapped around me, and a chin rested on my shoulder. "Y/n baby why'd you go?"

I relaxed when I saw Mark in the mirror behind me. "Just had to run to the bathroom, you alright?"

He nods. "Yeah, just startled me when I didn't feel you near me." He yawns.

I dry my hands with the towel. "Alright ya goof. We can go back to bed now, you have a video to make."

He smiles tiredly. "Yay... C'mon I'm cold.."

I laugh and turn to him. "That's because you're not wearing a shirt."

He rolls his eyes and takes my hand dragging me out of the bathroom and down the hall.

One thing kept swirling in my mind.. What had happened with the mirror? And.. Had Mark's eyes always been that dark?

----------

The next day, Mark had been quiet which again, was very strange.

"Mark, are you sure you're alright?" I ask putting a hand on his shoulder, but when my hand rested on his shoulder, a chill went through my body like ice.

I quickly removed my hand. "Mark why are you so cold!? Its at least seventy outside!"

He didn't answer me, just kept simply looking blankly at the wall.

I moved in front of him, hands on my hips, I was about to sass him for not answering me, but I felt my blood run cold when I saw his face.

His skin had turned a light grey, his hair was slicked back, only a small strand was over his eye, and finally..
His normal warming chocolate eyes were now nothing but deep pools of black.

"M-mark!?" I ask, slowly backing away.

His eyes met mine and he smiled, then my ears started to ring, my vision started to get blurry, and I saw that 3D effect again.

The second his ice hand met my chin, I had fainted.

-----------

"Ugh... My head.. W-what happened?" I ask as I opened my eyes, looking around the room I was startled to see 'Mark' standing there wearing a suit.

He had completely changed, his body was surrounded with that 3D effect, his grin made the room colder, his eyes were pale, pupils now a glowing crimson.

"I see that you're awake y/n. Sleep well?" His voice sent a shiver down my spine, his voice had a strange echo to it.

"W-who are y-you? W-what have you done to M-mark!?" I shout trying to sit up, by failing thanks to the chains.

"Oh don't worry about him, he's here. Just not at the moment, I thought you'd be much happier to see me, considering that night of passion we had." He smiled at me, arms behind his back.

My eyes widen. "What are you talking about!?"

The demon chuckled, walking over to me, his finger tracing my jawline. "Do you not remember? Such a shame.. How could you forget a night like that?"

I shivered at his tone and touch. "W-what..?"

"I shall remind you, do you remember when I had taken you to the amusement park a month ago?"

I slowly nodded, Mark had taken me to an amusement park as a surprise.. He won me a bunch of prizes.

"So you do remember that? Later that night things gotten heated, do you remember?" He ran his hand through my hair.

I blushed, recalling the night. But then a mother thing crossed my mind.. I thought Mark's eyes had gone black.. But it was too dark to tell.

"Y-you..?"

He nods pressing a kiss to my cheek. "Yes, my dear."

"How could I have been so blind!?" I shout.

He shh's me. "You're not, you just don't pay attention to detail sweetface."

"You.. Faked being Mark this whole time?" I ask slightly shivering.

"I wouldn't count it as faking.. Simply... Acting." He chuckles.

I had fallen in love with a demon.. He had lured me in with his false sense of security.. He truly was a master manipulator... Manipulating my mind into thinking I had fallen in love with an angel..
