Your POV

Mark spent the rest of the day recording videos with Jack and Wade while you just cleaned around the house a bit. Wilford and Light drank the same potion thing that Dark drank and returned back to Mark's mind. You were happy, but it almost seemed as if they would return. It was a dreary feeling and a harsh thought on your mind, so you decided to think about you and Mark's anniversary date that was happening in 2 days. You suddenly smiled while dusting off a picture of you and Mark at your wedding. It was a picture of you both cutting the wedding cake together. You looked over to the photo next to it which was also from your wedding. It was a picture of Mark holding you bridal style while you had frosted mustaches on your upper lips. 

You continued to scam through the wedding pictures before hearing footsteps along with a suitcase banging against the staircase. You looked over at the staircase to see Jack dragging his suitcase towards the front door. You gave him a questioning look as he placed his bag down and turned to look at you. "We finished recording 5 videos!" He said, cheerfully. You smiled before ruffling up his hair. "Good job! Now can you explain why you brought down your suitcase?" He looked over at his suitcase before returning his gaze to you. "Oh, yeah. I placed it there so that I wouldn't forget about it in the morning." You stifled a laugh as he smiled. "Okay, that's a good enough reason for me. Now, why don't us something for dinner? You guys must be hungry after recording all day." Jack excitedly nodded his head as you turned around and entered the kitchen. 

You started making pasta as Mark and Wade came down the stairs and sat with Jack at the dining table-talking about the videos that they had just recorded. Later on, Tyler and Ethan joined them. They talked for around a half hour before you finished making the pasta. They all dished up their plates and ate at the table-making settle conversations about the videos and how Jack and Wade should visit more often. 

You sat there in silence, though, eating your pasta while listening to their conversations. Over listening for several minutes, you noticed that Mark wasn't talking. You gazed at him to notice that he was staring at you. Is he just spaced-out? You thought as you rose up your hand and waved it slightly. His pupils dilated as he snapped back into reality-shaking his head a little to regain his posture. You tilted your head slightly and silently made your lips gesture, "Are you okay?" Mark replied the same silent way, gesturing, "I'm fine." You slowly nodded your head before eating the rest of your pasta.

After everyone finished dinner, they went off to do whatever. You finished your cleaning before heading up to your room. Mark was already in there, lying on the bed and scamming through his phone. You closed the door gently before taking off your shirt. Mark peered over his phone to look at you for a second before looking back down at his phone. You continued to strip yourself before putting on an oversized Darkiplier charity shirt and a pair of black shorts. You then joined Mark in bed, snuggling up close to him and looking at what he was doing on his phone. Twitter. sAs always. You rolled your eyes before placing a kiss on Mark's cheek. He looked down at you and grinned before putting his phone down on his nightstand and going over to turn on the lights. You made a confused face as he turned off the main light and made his way back into the bed. 

"You usually kiss me on the lips when I kiss you on the cheek at night." You explained with a bit of confusion and sadness in your voice. You then felt muscular arms wrap around your waste as you lay down on your side. "Sorry, baby girl. I just...haven't been feeling right lately." Mark responded. You shifted your body into a more comfortable position before speaking. "What's wrong? Why aren't you feeling right?" Mark hesitated for a long time before placing a kiss on the back of your head. "Nothing that you should be worrying about. I'll be fine dealing with this on my own. Besides, you should be thinking about the anniversary." This time, you took the honor of hesitating before speaking. 

"Yeah.. I'm really excited. I've been waiting to celebrate this since the day after we got married." You could tell that Mark was smiling as you gently yawned. "I haven't stopped thinking about it all day. I'm just-*yawn*... I'm just glad that I'm with you, Mark." You felt Mark suddenly tense up as you started slipping away from consciousness. But you made it up in your head that you were just tired, and really Mark just accidentally pulled on the covers. Besides, why would he tense up over you saying that you're glad to be with him?

***Morning***

My eyes fluttered open as I shivered slightly. I didn't feel any warmth near my back. Mark must've already gotten up. You thought before sitting up in your bed and yawning. Looking over at the clock sluggishly, you noticed that it was 6:56. Jack and Wade are leaving in four minutes. You thought before dashing out of bed and running down the stairs. You suddenly stopped yourself in the living room. Jack, Wade, Tyler, Ethan, and Mark were all standing next to each other-talking about...children? 

Jack looked over at you and smiled. Everyone else joined his gaze. You blushed from embarrassment, suddenly remembering that you were still in your pajamas. You cleared your throat before walking over to Jack and Wade- giving them long and thoughtful hugs. "I'm gonna miss you guys." You said, backing away from them to give them space. "Yeah. But you'll see us soon! Just have a baby and you'll see me here again before the little potato is even born!" Jack chirped. You stifled a laugh when he said "the little potato", knowing that Jack was going to transform your baby into an Irish leanbh. 

"Well, we'll just have to trust time when it comes to Mark and I having a baby, right?" You said before looking over at Mark and winking. He wore a blank expression-staring at you like last night. He must be spaced-out again. "Right, Mark?" You made your tone a little louder, just so that he could regain his posture. Mark's eyes dilated as shook his head a little-just like last night. "U-um, yeah..W-what were we talking about again?" He stuttered. Jack patted Mark's back and laughed. "Don't be so nervous, Mark! You're gonna be a great daddy!" Jack assured. Mark nodded his head nervously as Jack patted his back. Something's not right. You thought as you stared at Mark's every action. It didn't take him long to notice that you were staring. He looked over at you and gave you a questioning look. You snapped out of your staring trance and fixated your eyes onto Jack. 

"Well, why don't you two get going. You don't want to miss your plane, right?" Jack nodded his head as Wade smiled. "Yeah. I can't believe it's already been a week, though. I wish I could stay longer.." Jack spoke sadly. Wade nudged Jack's shoulder and shook his head. "We can't stay longer, remember? Tomorrow is Mark and Y/N's one year anniversary. " Wade informed. Your heart sped faster at the words "anniversary". You were very excited for tomorrow, if it wasn't already obvious. Jack's face lit up as he smiled. "Oh, yeah! I forgot! You two have fun and enjoy your anniversary date!" Jack said with excitement as he started walking out with Wade, Tyler, and Ethan by his side. "Thanks, Jack!" You yelled back as they closed the door. Once they left the house entirely, you looked over at Mark. 

"So, Tyler and Ethan are going with them to the car dealership to drop off the rental car before taking to the airport?" Mark nodded his head before walking over to the couch and sitting down. Something is seriously wrong with him. You thought as you sat down next to him, placing your hand on his thigh. He flinched at your touch before looking at you- frustration written all over his face. You hesitated to speak-being afraid yet curious of why he was frustrated. You finally found the courage to talk. "Mark..what's wrong?" You asked softly. Mark shook his head while running a hand through his messy bed-head hair. "Nothing...Nothing, I'm fine." He replied. Your heart sank a little. Why won't he tell me the truth? You thought as started to gently rub his thigh. "Mark..." You spoke even softer then last time. He looked down at the ground and snarled. "What did I just say?" He growled. He suddenly stood up and looked down at you. "I'm fine!" He yelled. You flinched at his tone-horror taking over your body. 

"I-I'm sorry. I just don't w-want you to be frustrated." You stuttered while shaking. Mark hasn't yelled at me like that before. You thought as Mark lifted up his hand. Your first reaction was to put up your hands in front of your face as an act of defense. You closed your eyes and awaited pain, but nothing came. You peered over your trembling hands to see Mark with his hand still up and his eyes closed. He must be thinking. You thought as Mark just stood there- about a foot away from you. He suddenly sighed and slowly brought his hand down to his side. "I'm sorry. I'm just-..." He sighed again before opening his eyes to see you still shivering. Silence. Both of you just stood there staring at each other. After about a minute, you heard Mark chuckle. You continued to shiver while giving Mark a confused look. He stopped his chuckling and replaced it with a menacing smirk. 

"You deserve to be yelled at. You betrayed me." What the hell is going on?! I screamed in my mind. Could it be an Iplier? Before I could even say anything, Mark shifted my position on the couch, laid me down, and pinned my wrists above my head. With our faces only inches apart, I felt myself blush. Who the fuck is this?! No..."what the fuck is happening" is what I should be screaming. I thought as silence filled the room. The silence was soon disrupted by Mark's sinister and spine-chilling words. "You should be begging at my feet for forgiveness right now." His raspy voice whispered. 

My face spoke for me-giving him a shocked expression. "You already forgave me, Mark! Remember?" You shot back. He chuckled loudly before replying. "All you did was explain why you had sex and then apologized. Do you really think that's enough? Couples break up and even fight over cheating. You should just be happy that your little ass isn't on the streets right now. Instead, I was nice to you and allowed you to stay." "Then where is that kindness now when I need it?" It felt like I was literally shooting comebacks at him with an actual gun and bullets. After my sentence, he silenced himself. He didn't speak. Instead, he stared into my eyes. I stared back-memorizing his chocolate brown eyes. 

Our staring session soon ended with Mark plainly getting off of me and standing up. He started walking over towards the steps before stopping and turning around slightly-him only being an inch away from the staircase while I still lay on the couch puzzled. "Maybe we should cancel the date tomorrow. I need time to think." He suggested with a low voice. My heart sank to my stomach, but I agreed-nodding my head shamefully. Mark then sighed before racing up the stairs and into our room- closing the door loudly, but not to the point of slamming it. 

I sat up and stared at the ground as my eyes stung from the tears that would soon fall down my cheek and splash onto the carpeted floor below. Why did that happen? Did an Iplier take over? No...His brown eyes surely told me that he was Mark. Then why-. Your thoughts were interrupted by your sudden burst of crying. Tears rapidly and uncontrollably fell down your cheeks and splashed onto the floor. Your heart started racing as your breath quickened. Our anniversary date was ruined. All because of Mark. 

"I need help..." You sobbed. Maybe Light could-..No, he betrayed me. Then who could help me through this pain? "Are you okay?" My heart suddenly stopped as tears stopped flooding my eye sockets. The remaining tears on my cheeks fell onto the ground as I stayed frozen on the couch. That voice. I know that voice. I remember that voice. I looked up slowly and saw him. "G-Google?"
