49. The storm

Running. 2d was running. Running home. He needed to get home. There was nothing chasing him, and yet he ran like there was. He needed to escape the reality of what just happened.

It was a cold wintry day, yet the sky was oddly blue. Despite the fact that it was winter, there was no snow. When was the last time it snowed in England? The cold wind felt like daggers against his damp cheeks. He wasn't crying... on purpose. The tears were streaming down his face involuntarily.

2d was already on his street, his house was nearly visible. So close yet so far away... He was really out of breath by now. 2d looked down, trying to concentrate on not tripping, and when he looked up again he saw his house. 2d stopped in his tracks. He saw his house, but in front of it, parked, was Murdoc's car.

Oh no... he thought. Oh god please no... More tears streamed down his face. 2d crossed his arms in an attempt to comfort himself, and ever so slowly started moving forward.

2d was trembling as he looked up at his house. He felt horrible and really didn't want to go in, considering who was inside... 2d gulped and walked up to the front door. He reached out his shaky hand with his house keys, trying to open the door, but only ended up dropping them.

Maybe this is a sign. 2d looked down at the keys on the ground. Maybe the world is trying to tell me that I really shouldn't go in... He sighed and reluctantly picked the keys up, trying to open the doors again.

As 2d stepped into the house he was greeted by the sound of the tv. His mom wasn't home, she liked to hang out with her girls on weekends; it was just him and Murdoc.

"H-Hi Murdoc..." 2d tried to sound as normal as possible. He closed the door as he spoke so that Murdoc couldn't really hear him.

"Hey 2d." Murdoc replied almost immediately. "Where were you?" 2d didn't reply but proceeded to take his coat off. "You weren't home when I came." 2d walked into the room. He was looking down, his face completely red. Murdoc was sitting on the couch and looking at him, his eyes widened. "What happened??"

"..." 2d held back a sob as he walked up to the couch, he couldn't speak, if he tried he would break down crying.

"2d??" Murdoc was getting seriously worried. "Where were you and what happened??" 2d sat down on the couch, putting some distance between himself and Murdoc. Tears continued streaming down his face as he leaned it in his palms, looking down at the carpet.

"I'm sorry....." 2d mumbled, barely audible. He was trying to stay strong but couldn't.

"What...?" Murdoc looked at 2d in confusion. Why the hell is he apologising??? "What's wrong?" Murdoc placed a hand on 2d's shoulder blade, trying to comfort him, but 2d just ended up flinching it off. Murdoc sat there in shock. "2d..."

"I'm sorry..." was all the bluenette managed to say, his voice was shaky and he was trembling. It hurt him. "I'm sorry..." Murdoc tried to comfort him. "I'm sorry..." he didn't deserve this. "I'm sorry..." 2d slowly started hyperventilating. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." He repeated over and over, the amount of emotions in each word terrified Murdoc. It was clear that 2d meant this apology, but what was he sorry about?

"2d-"

"I'm sorry." 2d cut him off. The two words just continued being repeated. Murdoc sighed, worried.

"But why are you sorry??" He spoke over 2d's apologetic mumbles. Upon hearing the question the words momentarily stopped, as if 2d was thinking, recalling painful memories.

"Murdoc..." he started. Murdoc immediately knew this was something serious. "I'm sorry... I know you could never forgive me... but I'm so, so fucking sorry!" 2d cried.

"What? 2d please, just tell me what happened." Murdoc insisted. "Why are you so sorry?" 2d took a few shaky breaths, then looked up. His face was red and he was biting back sobs. His lips curled into the saddest face expression, trying to keep all the emotions in.

"Murdoc I... I... I cheated on you." Murdoc was in shock. He watched as 2d completely broke down in front of him; sobbing, trembling, barely breathing. "I'm... sorry... I'm sorry...." 2d continued repeating through his sobs and ragged breaths.

Murdoc just stared at him, he had no idea how to respond to that. He never, ever, would have thought that 2d would do something like that, ever. The bluenette was too submissive and... nice. Murdoc thought that he could never get hurt from liking 2d. He was wrong. He was very wrong. It hurt like hell. The only person that he ever cared about betrayed him. He looked at the sobbing bluenette, how did this happen? Murdoc shook his head and stood up. He walked out.

Oh no... 2d's crying intensified. He grabbed his hair and curled down. What have I done? What have I fucking done?! I hurt him, I'm the worst person on earth! I hate myself! Murdoc trusted me, and what did I do? I ended up hurting him! He was the only person that ever cared about me... that I cared about... why... why did I have to fucking ruin it?! He's never going to talk to me again! I'm a horrible excuse of a human being! 2d's head was pounding and everything in the room seemed to be spinning.

"Stop hyperventilating or you'll faint." The commanding voice snapped 2d back into reality. He tried to sniff back some tears with his now blocked nose, and looked up. Murdoc was standing right in front of him, looking down at him. His face expression seemed blank, yet 2d could sense the pain and anger behind it. Murdoc was holding two glasses of water which he brought from the kitchen. He handed one to 2d and then sat down, keeping the distance between them.

I'm sorry... but also, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
