"Fuck! Just get it out!" Marcl screamed, I clutched onto Nate's shirt, as we all watched Lenny try to do a procedure to get the bullet out of Marcl.

As soon as we got home, we set Marcl on the couch as everyone surrounded him, watching him in pain, I winced as I saw all the blood, Marcl bit his lip so hard, that it started bleeding. "Hang on!", Lenny tried to calm him down, but Marcl wasn't having it, "Why don't you try having a fucking bullet in your leg!" He screamed, I heard Nate chuckle, so I elbowed his side.

"Got it!", Lenny held up the bullet with the tool he was using, we all gasped, as Marcl relaxed his muscles, and Melanie patched him up, with everyone calming down and going back to their rooms, I stayed with Marcl, sitting on the floor next to him. 

"You did great" I smiled, and brushed his hair back, from the sweat, Marcl looked at me and smiled, "Thea, just know, that I love every single bit of you, and I know that you don't love me back as much as you do for Nate", Marcl paused, I was shocked to hear him stay these things, but I let him continue. "Thea, I know you know this, but we were just a temporary thing, I was just a distraction so you could get your mind off of Nate, and I get it", Marcl smiled and caressed my cheek, I had started to cry in the moment.

"I still love you, and if you don't love me back,  that's fine, but if Nate still lingers in your mind, then go get him", Marcl said tiredly, I shoved my face into his side, "I'm sorry!" I shouted, but Marcl didn't respond, I lifted my head to see Marcls eyes closed.

I checked to see if his chest was lifting up and down, and it wasn't, panic ran through my blood, as I shook him, "Marcl!? Marcl!" I cried, Lenny came in, and immediately pushed me away, doing CPR on Marcl I cried on the ground, trying to crawl to him, but Nate pulled me back.

"Let go of me! Stop! Marcl!" I cried even more, Nate hugged me, as I shoved my face into his chest, and cried. I heard Lenny screaming, "No pulse!", "Call the ambulance!", everyone ran around on the phone, or grabbing things to support Marcls body. Nate dragged me into his room, where we laid on his bed, he listened to me cry for hours, when the ambulance came, he covered my ears so I couldn't hear anything.

Everything was happening so fast, I didn't know that I fell asleep.

Nate?" I said, as I woke up from my slumber, Nate was next to me on the bed, his arms up in a weird position, and his legs crossed together, I chuckled at him. Nate woke up slowly, and saw me laughing, "mm? What's so funny?" He rubbed his eyes. I covered my mouth, "What time is it?" He groggily asked.

"Three thirty five, in the morning", I whispered, I had no recollection of what happened last night. I wonder where Marcl is? I sat on the edge of the bed, staring into the wall, "Wanna get a snack?" Nate whispered, I turned around and nodded.

We quietly walked downstairs, I tiptoed to the kitchen, as Nate stumbled and hit the shelf making a loud noise, I smacked his shoulder, "Any louder? You're going to wake up Marcl!" , I whisper yelled. I could see in the dark that Nate's face went into a frown, "Thea? Do you remember anything from last night?" He asked. I titled my head, "What're you talking about? Marcl was sleeping on the couch, that's all" I said innocently.

"Alright, I'll go make some tea", he smiled, but Nate's face was saying a whole different story, I shrugged it off, and walked behind him, I noticed how quiet it was, for three o'clock in the morning, normally the boys would be either be quietly training, or just walking around, I once caught Mason, one of the strongest guys, watching Manny sleep in his crib, it's funny how the different personality traits can differ from the rest.

"Why is it so quiet?" I asked, as I sipped on the tea, Nate made for me, Nate looked at me and frowned once more, he looked like he wasn't ready to be awake. "Thea... Marcl was sent to the hospital last night, he was shot in the leg, do you remember?" Nate asked me, as he sat next to me on the chair. I followed his movements, his arm resting on the back board of the chair, "No..." I said quietly, Nate sighed and muttered to himself.

"God Thea..."

"What?" I chuckled, thinking he was just playing around with me, but Nate looked dead straight into my eyes, and inhaled. "What?..." I seriously asked, Nate finally looked down, and held my hands in his, his hands were warm like the tea, it comforted me.

"Thea, tell me what you remember from last night" he asked, I lifted my eyebrow, "Well, Melanie and I came to get you from Malcom, and when we got home Marcl was sleeping on the couch" I said, and looked deeper into Nate's grey eyes. Nate looked down, "She must've forgot, she was too into shock" Nate whispered and rubbed his forehead.

"Nate?, tell me what's going on" I pleaded quietly, Nate squeezed my hands tighter, and then let go, standing up, he stood in front of me, with his back facing me, he seemed scared to even look at me.

What's going on?

My mind was flooded with questions, why is he acting weird?

"Thea..."

"Yes!" I raised my voice, as I pulled the roots of my hair, I was growing frustrated from the silent treatment he was giving me.

"Marcl..."

"Marcl? Marcl what?"

"Marcl loss too much blood, and..." Nate sighed.

"Marcls dead"
