Hey guys! Just a note before I begin this update I am back and feeling better than ever! So i'm pumped to get back into this and do the best I can, I plan on finishing the book by the end of March no matter what, my preferred is end of February so expect a lot of updates alright? And things are just getting heated too <3 As you know, there was a family emergency which is why I had to go on break, it was very hard because one of my siblings were admitted into the hospital for something and weren't aloud to come home until just recently. But they've been getting better and the progress is showing, and I'm coming along as well. As for everyone who supported me, thank you, I'm sorry I didn't reply to you guys, I only saw them all earlier today and I felt bad about it, but, it doesn't matter now. Anyways! Uhh, don't forget that this was a mature book XD Throwback to the last chapter but, it contains gore, trigger warnings and sexual things (You can thank the last chapter for that) But that's about it <3 So thank you to those who read this not so small paragraph, and I hope you enjoy the chapter, okay?

Love ya

=======================================================

--= Jack's + POV =--

By the time my eyes opened up I felt a jolt of pain and I sat up instinctively. Kicking my legs over the side of the bed in a hurry, I groggily yet panicked waddled over to the bathroom in the dark, making sure not to wake up Mark at the same time. Flipping the bathroom light on, I closed the door gently to make as little noise as possible and glanced at myself in the mirror. 

"Ew!"

Leaning in closer, I checked out the eye that smashed into the corner of the coffee table, and saw all the blood which was there caused my eye to seal half closed. It kept twitching, and my eye was dented inwards causing it to look like someone tried to peck my eye out. Or if someone just took a spoon and hastily scooped a piece out like vanilla ice cream.

A sigh escaping my lips, I searched around trying to find something but a thought came to my mind. Closing my eyes and focusing, I shut my good eye only to see hazy, dark red outline from the dried up blood and the rest was a blur. Waiting a good moment to concentrate, the room slowly flickered green.

 Still blurry, I furrowed my eyebrows focusing on my left eye and a smile rose to my face as I felt the pain being lifted. My eye slowly opening fully, I watched in the reflection as the dried blood and scabs crumpled off of my face like sand, and the gashes which were now open quickly sealed as my eyes stayed green.

 A triumphant laugh echoing through the bathroom. I squeezed my eyes shut and blinked hard a couple times. Poking my eyelid I felt no pain and stared into my green and blue eyes. The green slowly fading away, happiness swelled inside me to see that I could control it just enough to heal myself. 

Worked in the asylum, but to be fair it was always on in the asylum. Taking a toothbrush and spinning it around with my fingers, I victoriously brushed my teeth just because I felt that awesome, and walked out of the bathroom shutting off the light and giggling.

 Mark was still asleep, which was perfect for me, so when I slid down the stairs on the rail I aimed to go on the couch where Chica was already sleeping. Giggling, I sat down beside her and pet her head only to hear a voice speak up.

 "I was wondering when you'd wake up, but I heard you giggle from upstairs." Hair standing up on the back of my neck, I leapt to my feet in a hurry and snapped my head in the direction to see Cry with a huge smile on his face. Raising a hand, he gave me a little wave before placing it back down on his lap. 

"Hey!" 

"Uhh, hey?" There was a bit of a silence as I searched around the room for an answer, and when I looked back at him he let out a little laugh. 

"Felix let me in." 

"Is he here?"

 "ATTANS BANANER!" A giggle bursting out of my mouth, Cry looked at me with a weird look. 

"Did you just understand what he said?"

 "Yeah, hold on, FELIX ARE YOU TRYING TO OPEN A BANANA?" Growing my voice louder so he could hear me from the living room, I heard him let out a groan as some crashing noises were heard from the kitchen.

 "NO, BUT IT KEEPS POKING ME!"

 "OH. WELL-" 

"WAIT A MINUTE!" Hearing footsteps come stomping into the living room, Felix was looking at me with a bewildered expression. 

"You know Swedish?!" 

"To some extent." I laughed. Cry looking at the both of us, a wide smile of amusement on his face he giggled again. 

"I'm impressed, though you aren't as loud as he is." 

"I could be louder, I just don't wanna wake Mark up." I admitted. Hand going up to reach the back of my neck, Cry kept his grin up. 

"Ahh, that makes sense. I have to admit it I envy him."

 "For what?" Felix looking at Cry confused, Cry simply shrugged. 

"He's just not with Felix right now." 

"HEY!" Giggling, I shook my head and took a seat next to Cry, Chica somehow still fast asleep through all of this. Content shined in his eyes when he saw me take a seat beside him, squirming around in his seat trying to make more room for me, he eventually just gave up with a sigh and rested where he was.

Felix quickly going back into the kitchen, he grabbed a plate of pancakes and came to sit down on the couch that Chica was lying down on. Felix carefully placing himself so as not to wake up the food demon, he relaxed once he realised she was still fast asleep.

"So how have you been?" Cry piped up, turning back to him to see his face filled with curiosity, I couldn't help but smile at how he seemed interested.

"I've been hanging out with Mark a lot recently, we even bought a dog!" Quickly pointing over to Chica, a huge grin on my face I continued talking.

"I've had a bit of problems adjusting, but it's all coming around so there's no need to worry about them." 

"Ahh, I'm glad for that. But you two do spend a lot of time together, it's like you're inseparable." Sensing a hint of negativity in the sentence, worry struck through me quickly as I raised a hang to play with my hair.

"Is that such a bad thing?" Cry's eyes widening realising how I took it not the way he meant, he hurriedly tried forming a sentence, seeming panicked as well.

"No no! I meant that, it's very cute."

"Oh, thank you." Smiling at him widely, a lazy grin grew on his face instinctively as he stared at me. Felix coughing breaking the comfortable silence, I looked over at him to see he scarfed down his pancakes already.

"Felix it hasn't even been two minutes yet!" Felix looking up from his plate, he narrowed his eyes at me as he swept a finger on his plate picking up excess maple syrup and stuck it in his mouth, making sure it was the middle finger.

"Fucking fight me Jack!"

"Oh ho ho, you don't wanna mess with me Mr.Sweden, I'm Irish." Getting up from my spot beside Cry, I lifted my sleeves so it was at the same level a t-shirt would be. Staying close to the couch, I leaned on my left leg and crossed my arms over my chest.

"Ohhhh so it's about nationality now is it?" Felix getting up as well, Cry glanced between us interested but a hint of worry hiding behind his expression. Shooting him a reassuring smile, I looked back over to Felix and began circling him.

"It is between us."

"Ahh, so then it's like- THIS!" Felix whipping around and reaching out a hand, I snatched it quickly and pushed him back down on the couch. Pinning him down in an instant, I began tickling him causing the Swedish dork to scream.

"AIEEEEEEEEEEEEE! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Felix shaking his head violently back and forth, his body thrashing as he tried to get away he couldn't stop laughing. Melting into a pile of a shaking body, I let go and watched as he continued laughing.

"Felix, I'm not touching you anymore." Cry giggling at this, I looked over to see him with a proud look on his face. Smirking at his cute expression, Felix quickly cut off my thoughts.

"PTSD!"

"Felix!" Cry's eyes widening as he stood up, he hurried over to my side and bonked Felix on the forehead. A frown replacing the smile he just had.

"OWW!"

"That's a bad thing to joke about!" Cry scorned and I let out a laugh as I shook my head.

What a fucking dork.
