Save Me... A Markiplier Story

Episode 14 A Little Shaky

Mark's POV.

Two days after Sophia's threat had been made and everything cooled down, I'd gotten a message from my one of my best friends, Matthias. He texted me saying he was going to an event and wanted me to go with him. I said sure and apparently, it was a YouTube conference or something or other, for all the YouTubers with 900,000 subscribers to 6,000,000 subscribers, set up here in Cincinnati for anyone who could go. They said to dress in our YouTuber gear and not so ridiculous. So I planned to do just that.

I woke up and it was 7:30 in the morning. I pulled the covers over my head and wanted to go back to sleep. Suddenly the covers were taken off of me. I couldn't see anything clearly without my glasses or contacts, so I was weirded out. I assumed this was Sophia's doing.

"Phi, give me back the damn blanket."

"What the hell? I'm not Phi! Get your ass up!"

I turned over to grab my glasses and put them on. I quickly looked around and was scared like crazy when I saw who was standing at the foot of my bed.

"Holy balls!!! What the hell?!! Matthias!? How'd you get in here!? Thanks for the heart attack!"

Matthias laughed and came over to me. He threw a shirt at me.

"Here. Put on a shirt and change out of your sweatpants. It's not pajama day. We have to leave in a while and you aren't going in sweatpants and nor are you going shirtless."

I was super confused. "That doesn't answer my question Matthias. How did you get in my apartment?"

"Door was wide open. I just walked in and came in your room. Just now, actually. Something wrong?"

"Where's Sophia?"

"What? She's not here. I never heard or saw her on my way in. Why?"

"Son of a bitch. Not again."

"What again?"

"Shut it Matthias!"

I put on my shirt and ran into Sophia's bedroom. She wasn't there. Neither was she in the living room, kitchen, laundry room, or bathroom. The door was wide open like Matthias had said. That freaked me out. I kept remembering the night I came home from LA. When I had found Sophia outside, beat up and bloody. I feared that it had happened again.

"Phi?!! Hell. Where did you go now...?" I looked out the window and wasn't able to see her there either.

"Woah. Mark? What's going on?" Matthias had a look of concern on his face.

"Sophia wasn't supposed to go anywhere and wasn't expected anywhere either. She's supposed to be here. Goddammit. Where's my phone?"

"Oh. Right here."

Matthias threw my phone at me and I tried calling Phi.

"Hello?" She answered.

"Phi? Where the hell are you?"

"I'm out. Why are you so freaked?"

"You left, and I have no idea where you are. And the door was left open."

"I woke you up at like, 7:00 this morning. You said to leave the door open and you'd be up in a minute. Evidently, you were half asleep and don't remember a damn thing."

"Huh! Really?! What was your first clue!?"

"Woah buddy boy. Chill it. I'll be back in about thirty minutes. Okay?"

"Okay. Don't you ever do that to me again Phi."

"I'm sure you did it to yourself Mark. Calm down for me. Bye."
