The young man opened his eye laying in bed. His brown eyes scanned the room as he turned on his side. He contemplated going to back to sleep as he stared at his clock displaying 6am. He groans into his own pillow and sighs.
"Just get up Mark. You have work to do." he spoke to himself as he sat up. Looking at the empty space in the bed next to him made him suddenly get upset. he wondered why but brushed it off and stood from bed. Mark stretched hearing his back crack as usual, with that he grabbed his glasses and walked to the kitchen slipping them on. He searched his kitchen for breakfast supplies and found a bagel in a bread box. he noted he needed to go shopping soon and walked to the living room.
He sat on his couch grabbing his phone off the charger on the coffee table and switched it on.
"20 missed calls?" He questioned reading the screen. He decided to listen to his voice mails. About 10 minutes later of listen to the assortment of congratulations and excitement he rushed to his computer after hearing '10 million'. He quickly typed his password into his account and sat in shock. Sure enough he had 10 million subscribers. A smile stretched across his face as he stared. He started thinking about his subscribers and how long of an adventure this would be. He couldn't stop himself from smiling like a jackass. He set up his webcam quickly. he pressed record and sat back.
"Hello everybody my name is Markiplier and welcome to ... an unplanned video! i just woke up about 15 minutes ago so sorry if I look tired and run down right now." He rubbed his eyes slightly with a yawn. "With saying that I woke up to 20 voice mails... and 10 million subscribers!" he smiled widely cheering and pumping his fist into the air.
"I was thinking the other day about what I should exactly do for this occasion and i thought I had plenty of time to think of something... that was about 3 days ago and boy was I wrong!" He sat for a few seconds thinking about what to say next. "So with that I've decided to do a contest. A contest where if you win you get to spend a week with me!" He waved his hands excitedly. "And I bet by the end of that week I'll have one less subscriber." he laughed to himself.
"I will pay for all of your meals. Will do a weeks worth of videos together. I'll even pay for your hotel and plane if needed! I just think I should be able to give back to at least one of you out there. Even if it is just one person I know I've done something good!" he cleared his throat. "Also for the top... 50 runner ups I'll give you something free signed by me from my merch store." Mark nodded and looked around grabbing his headphones off the desk. "And since this is such a grand occasion I think I should do a few requests from viewers." He smiled sincerely.
"I can't thank you all enough for this wonderful gift of... 10 million people thinking I'm good enough to watch... wow." he put the head phones back down "I would like to again thank you all for watching. I will see you all on the next video! BUH BYE!" Mark ended the recording and started editing, thinking about the contest he was now holding. And maybe just maybe he would make a new friend in the process.
