(Your P.O.V)
Ethan seems just a little...off. He's been acting really antsy for some reason. I choose to ignore it.
"So what have you been up too?" I ask him. He turns to me and smiles.
"I got a new job! I'm an intern now!" He says very proudly. I smile at him.
"I'll be right back." I say to him. I get up from the couch and walk into the kitchen. I see Hack and Mark talking.
"Where'd Felix go?" I ask.
"He went to bed." Jack says.
"I have a question. Does Ethan seem off to you?" I ask. They look at each other then nod.
"That's what we were talking about." Mark says.
"He just seems like he really needs to tell us something or like he needs to do something." Jack adds.
"He also has never just shown up like this without calling or texting. I know we were in the news but he would text or call before even in an emergency." I say. Mark nods.
"He's definitely not acting like the Ethan I know."
"I'm going back out there." I say.
"We're gonna make some lunch." Mark says. I nod and walk back in the living room. Ethan looks like he's spaced out. I wave my hand in front of his face.
"Ethan?" I ask.
"Huh?"
"You were gone for a minute there, bud." I say with a giggle. He laughs a bit. He looks into the kitchen. Then all of a sudden like a lightning bolt, he runs to me and grabs me by the throat.
"Listen here you little bitch! Don't ever talk about me acting out of character. You keep the act up, got it?! Or all the people you care about will *gasp* disappear." He whisper yells in my face. He let's go and I cough. Mark walks out.
"You ok?!" He asks concerned. Ethan flashes me a glare.
"I'm...fine." I say while coughing. I regain my air.
"I just choked on my spit." I say. Mark looks at me still a little concerned and nods. He walks back in the kitchen.
"Good girl." Ethan says under his breath. I glare at him and sit down.
**TIME SKIP**
I lay down in the bed next to Mark. I toss and turn in my sleep. I jolt up in a sweat. I here Mark's soft snoring and I slightly smile. I walk to the bathroom with a rag and wipe my forehead. I look in the mirror after washing my face to be met with red eyes and a blank face. They put up a finger to their non existent lips to shush me. I scream. I hear a thud then Marks hurried footsteps to the bathroom. He looks at me as tears fall down my face. I see black spots in my vision. Then everything starts to go black.
"(Y-n)?!" Mark asks as he catches me in his arms. I see Ethan, Jack, and Felix right next to him all looking at me concerned. Mark picks me up and lays me on the bed. I see he talk to the guys then they leave and he closes the door. He kisses my forehead to reassure me and lays next to me. I stare at the ceiling as my eyelids become heavy. I close my eyes into my dream world.
**DREAM**
I'm running through I forest full of tall dark green pine trees. Every time I look to my right or left I see the same shadowy figure in the trees. They stare at me as I run. Their mouth curves into a crooked smile. I look at them in fear and miraculously start to run faster, till I run out of forest. I'm met with completely black surroundings. I keep turning in circles looking around.
"Welcome to hell." I here a very deep dark voice say.
**END OF DREAM**
I wake up in another sweat. Mark turns to look at me. His eyes sparkle in the dark.
"What did you dream about?" He asks me.
"I-I umm..." I couldn't get the words out. He sits up.
"Shhhhh. How about we talk about it in the morning hm?" He says. I nod.
