Marcus didn't go to bed that night. He curled up on the couch and watched the TV's empty screen. He didn't even know time went by until jack walked into the room yawning.

"Marcus are you ok?" he asked, rushing over to sit next to him,

"No" Marcus admitted.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't want to talk about it" He mumbled.

"I'm sure I can help. Please talk to me" Jack said, resting a hand on the other boy.

"No you can't" Marcus mumbled. "No one can."

"Marcus?" Chase asked, shocked. "What happened?" Just like Jack he ran to his side.

"Nothing." Chase pulled him into a hug. "I think I want to go to bed" Marcus mumbled into Chase's shoulder. Chase nodded.

"Do you want me to come with you?"

"No. I think I just need some alone time" He sighed, pulling himself out of the embrace. Chase kissed his boyfriend on the cheek and let him drag his feet down the hall to their room.

"Do you know what happened?" Chase asked Jack who had been watching silently the entire time.

"No I just got in a few seconds before you." He said. Chase frowned.

"I'll talk to him later. I'm sure he'll have calmed down enough to talk to me."

As they talked Marcus pulled the blanket over his head. He closed his eyes but it hurt to keep them shut. He sighed and decided to just hide under there until the day was over. He passed his time by listening into the conversations going on in the living room.

"So what's it like being human" Jack asked, sitting next to Chase on one of the couches?

"I don't know. Probably not that different from being an android" Chase mumbled. He really didn't want to talk right now. He just wanted to think of Marcus and try to find a way to help.

"So you're in a tube instead of a charger?" he asked.

"Yea" Chase said, without much enthusiasm.

"How is it living with siblings?"

"It's ok I guess." Chase tried to ignore the pounding in his brain telling him to run to Marcus and comfort him. Marcus just needed alone time but that didn't stop 1chase from wanting to help.

"How did you and Marcus meat" Jack asked, sounding a bit angry. Chase was too seep in thought to notice.

"We met at school when he was helping Douglas try and capture us."

"Why did you fall for him? Did you know what he was doing? Are you having a fight? Is that why he's angry?" Chase gave him an annoyed look.

"I fell for him because he was perfect. I didn't really make the decision. I just fell in love. I didn't know he was a bad guy until later in the relationship but by then he didn't agree with that twisted man. No we're not having a fight. Why do you think that?"

"I was just wondering" He said, looking disappointed. Chase frowned. He must have wanted more information. Chase just wasn't in the mood to tell his whole life story. "Wanna play a game?" He asked, smiling again.

"I guess so" Chase mumbled. They started playing Sly 3 and Jack kept loosing. He didn't even seem to be trying. Every minigame he lost. He was shot out of the sky in less than a minute, he didn't hit Chase's pirate ship once and he was killed in hacking so fast Chase was left to fend for himself.

"You're really good" He said giving Chase a wide smile. "You really need to teach me."

"Maybe another time" Chase chuckled. The other boy's frown returned.

"Ok but we should play something else." Jack said happily. The boys played a pile of different games and Chase kept winning. He'd always been good at video games but this was ridicules. Jack was turning red from embarrassment but was saved by Adam running into the room screaming breakfast.

"Breakfast" He yelled, sliding across the floor in his socks. Chase rolled his eyes.

"Breakfast sounds good" Jack said, rushing to the kitchen with Adam. They each pored themselves a large bowl of lucky charms and filled it with milk. An hour later Bree walked into the room and did the same. They all sat on the couch and watch cartoons. Chase didn't pay attention. It'd been awhile since Marcus went to bed. Maybe he should go check on him. He changed his mind. Marcus was probably fast asleep. He didn't hear any moving in the room.

Marcus was curled in a ball, staying completely still. It was getting too hot under the blanket and it was getting uncomfortable. He couldn't seem to bring himself to move it off him. He couldn't seem to bring himself to move at all. All he wanted was to sink into the mattress and disappear forever, make all this pain and heartache go away. He listened to the heartbeats and the breathing. Someone's was too fast. They were breathing heavily but hiding it well. Their heart also seemed to occasionally skip. It was probably stupid but the only time Marcus ever felt that way was when he looked at Chase but that was probably not it. He'd heard it since he'd left the room. It was just a lot louder now next to all the other normal heartbeats. It had to belong to Jack. He knew it wasn't Chase. Did that mean Jack liked Chase? No that was stupid.

Marcus groaned and pulled the blanket off of him. He heard someone turn their head quickly, probably Chase hearing him. He still didn't want to talk but he also really wanted to know if it was really Jack's heart beating so fast. He swung his legs over the bed and stood up. His hair was a mess and there was a mark on his cheek from where he was laying on the pillow. He sighed. IT really didn't matter what he looked like. He left the room and strode to the living room.

"Marcus" chase said relieved. Marcus smiled. At least he had Chase. He'd always love him no matter what. He glanced around the room and sure enough the pounding heart was coming from Jack. He watched as the boy turned his eyes from the two of them and his heart slowed. There was something up with him and Marcus didn't like it. He'd have to watch Jack a little more carefully.
