MurdocX2D - A big tour ch 22

2D stretched himself a little and groaned as he felt his neck hurt. He had been tired of this entire photo taking and posing for today. The clothes he was wearing was killing him too. The outfit he was wearing was a black tight jacket and black jeans. He also had a black tie and a black hat. The girls had almost the same out fir but had skirts and diadems instead. They did some sort of fashion collection of some sort of office clothing. 2D and the girls had to get ready for the next shot so they were just in the middle of getting their makeup put on and get their hair styled. 2D didn't wanted so much of it and got the chance to sneak away to get some water before he would pose for the collection. Just as everything were about to get settled Amelie came running in high speed yelling in French. Everyone around the place got confused and looked at each other. 2D only raised an eyebrow since he didn't understand a word of what she said. Amelie ran up to 2D and put her papers on the table in front of them.

Amelie: Misour Tusspot! Zere is a little girl who are troubling zee guards outside.

2D:  Huh?

Amelie: She says zat she knows you Misour.

2D: *blinks* H-How does she look like!?

Amelie: Well, she has dark short hair and is quite short. She yells at us somezing about someone zat is called "2D-kun"…

2D flinched as he heard that. He knew exactly who it was. Another person from the personal came running up to the camera team and yelled something about that the little girl at the door had hit down one of the guards. Everyone flinched in shock and Amelie said that she would go and call the police but 2D stopped her.

2D: Don't do anything at all! Let me take care of this! I know this girl!

Amelie: But Misour! We have our next shot in five minutes!

2D: I will be back later!

Amelie: But-

2D: TAKE A BLOODY BREAK THEN!

Amelie: *blinks* Umm, you all heard him. Take a break!

2D ran with high speed down the corridors down to the front door where he found three big guards try to caught Noodle who tried her best to pass the annoying men's in her way. Noodle bit one of the guards arm as they tried to hold he back. She growled like crazy and had lost her patience now.

Noodle: LET ME PASS! I NEED TO SEE 2D-KUN!

Guard: Hold her back!

Noodle: LET GO!!

2D: NOODLE!?

Noodle and the guards flinched as 2D's high voice flew through the air. They turned their heads and saw 2D running up to them. He blinked confused as he saw Noodle still hanging by the guards arm and the other two tried to pull her off the man. 2D looked at the guards and told them to let go of Noodle.

2D: It's okay! She's with me!

Guards: Oh we're sorry misour Tusspot.

Noodle smirked and stuck out her tongue at the guards. They frowned at her as she passed them. 2D grabbed Noodle's arm and dragged her after him to his dressing room. He locked the door and turned to her. Noodle was smiling widely at him with the smile he had missed for so long. 2D grabbed Noodle's shoulders and kneeled down.

2D: What are you doing here!?

Noodle: Halo to you too 2D-kun…

2D: Huh? Oh sorry Noodle… But what are you doing here!?

Noodle: I came to take you back home! It's horrible without you! I can't eat or sleep without thinking of you! Russel-sama is sad too and Murdoc-san is depressed! He locks himself up in his Winnebago all the time and even let Cortez drown in junk! NOTHING IS GOING RIGHT AND WE-

2D: CALM DOWN NOODLE! Take it easy.

Noodle: 2D-kun! I missed you so much!

Noodle jumped into the singers arm and snuggled hard into him. 2D hugged her back hard and smiled. He had missed the little girl too for so long and he was very happy to finally have her in his arms again. He then remembered that Noodle had said that everything had turned out horrible without him. 2D pulled back and looked at Noodle. She looked back at him with her sweet eyes and cute face. 2D sat down at a chair and took Noodles hands.

2D: Now… keep on.

Noodle: As I said. Everything is horrible without you. We haven't done much in weeks. No music, no playing… NOTHING! Russel-sama tries to cheer me up and Murdoc-san is depressed…

2D: M-Murdoc?

Noodle: Hai! Since you left he haven't even shown his face around us…

2D: R-Really?

Noodle: *Nods*He miss you very much… Just like me and Russel-sama. If you don't come back… We'll maybe split up!  

2D flinched as Noodle started to cry a little. She growled and wiped away her tears. She was sick of crying all the time. 2D felt really bad for doing this to Noodle. He didn't know that he was that important for the band at all. He had heard that Murdoc actually was depressed and "missed" him. 2D smiled a little but he still couldn't go back. He stroked Noodle's wet cheek and sighed.

2D: Noodle… I'm sorry that I have hurt you so much… B-But I can't go back…

Noodle: W-What? WHY!?

2D: I-I just can't…

Noodle: 2D-kun?

2D: Yes?

Noodle: Why did you leave? Was it because… Was it because of me?

2D: NO! Not at all Noodle.

Noodle: Then why!? Was it the music? Russel-sama? Or maybe Murdoc-san!?

2D had to admit that it was Murdoc that was the biggest reason. But it wasn't because of their fights. It was about something much more complicated.

Noodle: It was him wasn't it!?

2D: *nods slowly*

Noodle: Was he mean to you!? If he was, I'll teach him a lesson! Nobody messes with Nudoru's big brother!

2D: Noodle calm down… It wasn't just only his fault. I-It was my fault too. I wasn't very nice to him either.

Noodle: B-But why did you leave?

2D: Noodle… I fink I have to tell you the whole story so you understand.

Noodle's eyes widened. Was she finally about to know about what had happened on the tour and why the bassist and the singer had been so weird? Noodle went closer to 2D so she was sure that she wouldn't miss anything. 2D sighed and took a deep breath. He then held Noodle's hands harder and looked up at her. Just as he was about to start the two of them heard two very familiar voices outside in the corridor and some yelling and small crashing. It sounded like a fight almost but yet not.

Voice 1: Excuse us lady but we need to pass. We have to find our friend.

Voice 3: Sacrebleu!

Voice 2: SHUT IT! Move and let me pass! We have to find a little girl around here so we can go home!

Voice 1: Come on man calm down…

Voice 2: Looks who's talking! Just by a few hours ago YOU were the big nervous wreck! AND YOU! Stop grabbing my arm before I rip your head off! NOW MOVE!

Noodle and 2D stared at each other. They knew exactly who these voices belong to. 2D rose up from the chair and carefully opened the door. Both of them peeked out and saw Russel and Murdoc. Russel tried to stop Murdoc from hitting one of the workers that tried to stop them from passing. Noodle and 2D walked out and blinked slowly. Suddenly Murdoc's and Russel's eyes fell on 2D and Noodle in front of them. 2D told the workers to let them go since they were with him. 2D pointed at his door and the band members walked in to talk. Just as 2D had locked the door the bassist started to yell at him just like old days. 2D bit his lower lip and tried to hide his headache.

Murdoc: SO IT'S HERE YOU HIDE HUH!? YOU BLOODY LITTLE SHRIMP!

2D: Gee Muds… I thought you all knew that I'm a model now…

Russel: We know D. Nice to see you again.

2D: I'm glad to see you too Russ. And you too Muds…

Murdoc: Whatever… *turns to Noodle* As for you! I need to have a bloody talk with you about running away like that!

Noodle: I wrote a note!

Russel: We saw that Noods. But you gotta understand that we were worried about you.

Noodle: You didn't have to… I told you that I went here to get back 2D-kun.

2D: But-

Murdoc: All this was your fault! *points at 2D* It's your fault that we had to fly all the way here to get Noodle who couldn't hold herself into her skin. Oh I should punish you at the same way my parents did!

Russel: You gonna leave him in a supermarket?

Murdoc: SHUT UP! They didn't left me! They forgot me! They were drunk… Enough of that! You two are coming home now! *grabs Noodle's and 2D's arms*

2D: LET GO! I ain't coming home with you!

Murdoc: …

Noodle: But 2D-kun I-

2D: Noodle… I just can't.

Noodle: IEE! If you don't come home we will split up! I DON'T WANT TO LOSE ANOTHER FAMILY!

2D: N-Noodle?

Noodle: What am I suppose to do without you all… I love you all so much…

All of the others felt bad when they heard that. Noodle was right. They were a family even if they didn't show it so good. Noodle sat down on the floor and looked down all sad and Murdoc growled at 2D.

Murdoc: YOU SEE THAT!? She's heartbroken thanks to you!

Russel: MUDS! Stop it!

2D: I'm sorry… But I ain't going home with you!

Noodle: BUT WHY!

2D: ASK HIM! *points at Murdoc* He started everything from the beginning!

Murdoc: I did not! YOU MADE ME DO IT!

2D: OH REALLY!

Russel: What are you two talking about?

2D and Murdoc went all silent and glared at each other. They knew that Russel and Noodle didn't have a clue about what was going on at all. But Noodle seemed to notice something between the bassist and singer that she never had noticed before. But something seemed to crawl up to her mind now. She didn't say anything just kept blinked and stared at the two guys in front of her. 2D and Murdoc actually blushed for some reason and tried to look away from each other. Russel sighed and sat down in a chair nearby. He glared at the two band members and crossed his arms. He was tired of waiting now.

Russel: Hey you two!

Murdoc & 2D: What?

Russel: Now I want you two to tell both me and Noodle what the HELL is wrong with you! I'm sick of waiting. Whatever happened between you two before, we'll finish it off right now!

Murdoc: I'm not saying anything…

2D: It's too complicated…

Russel: Oh yeah? Well, I give a damn in that! TALK!

Murdoc: I REFUSE! You know what! Face ache can stay here forever if he wants to! We'll go home and get a new singer!

Noodle: NO!

2D: FINE! Do that! I don't care!

The three band members jumped in shock as a chair flew into the floor and break into pieces with a large smash. They blinked and saw Russel staring at them with angry eyes and he was panting heavily. They had never seen Russel this upset before.

Russel: I'M FUCKING SICK OF THIS NOW! YOU TWO ARE THE BIGGEST JERKS I HAVE EVER MET! YOU KNOW! I HAD ENOUGH ALREADY! WE'LL GO BACK TO THE PLANE AND GO HOME RIGHT NOW!

2D, Murdoc and Noodle: *Gasps in shock*

Russel: I'M SICK OF ACTING LIKE A DAMN MOTHER AROUND YOU! NOW YOU DO AS I SAY! WE'LL GO BACK HOME AND TALK THROUGH THIS LIKE ADULTS! IF D WANT'S TO GO HOME AFTER THIS SO FINE! IT DOSEN'T MATTER! BUT I WANT TO KNOW THE FUCKING REASON WHY THIS WHOLE THING STARTED!

2D, Noodle and Murdoc didn't say a thing after Russel's outbreak. Russel took a deep breath and calmed down. He then turned to 2D who flinched a little.

Russel: D! You go and tell your boss that you're going back home for a very important reason! Murdoc! You better put yourself together and shut up for once! And Noodle. You come with me back to the plane. LET'S GO EVERYONE!

Everyone did as Russel told them. 2D told the team and his boss that he had to go back home with his friends. It was very important. Amelie had tried to make the singer stay but 2D only told her he would be back later. The model's even tried to make him stay but 2D finally told them what he thought about them. It wasn't beautiful at all and he hadn't time to watch his language. The girls only gasped as they heard what the singer told them. 2D smirked as he walked back to his changing room and changed clothes. He had wanted to tell the models that for a long time now and finally he had the change. The singer packed his things and followed his friends to the airport where their private plane waited. 2D went all shocked when he heard that Murdoc had bought it when he was drunk and depressed. All of them stepped on and soon they were on their way back to England. None of them said anything on their way back. 2D smiled as he stroked Noodle over the head. She rested her head in his lap and enjoyed the gently touch from the singer's hand. 2D looked up and saw Murdoc staring at him. 2D frowned and looked out through the window instead. Murdoc crossed his arms and sighed. He actually had to admit that he was glad to see the singer again. Sadly he wasn't good at show it at all. After a few hours they were finally back in England again. They arrived at the air port and did a quick check before they walked over to Murdoc's car that was parked at the car park. 2D put in his bags in the boot cover and then sat down in the front seat with Murdoc. Noodle and Russel sat in the backseat just like it used to be. Murdoc started the car and drove back to Kong studios. Not much was said at the whole way back to the grey building. Russel made sure to watch the two guys in the front seat so they wouldn't start fighting again. Murdoc didn't care at all. He was glad to finally go back home and to have his band with him. He wasn't going to think too far since the singer didn't seem to have made up his mind yet. The bassist glared at 2D from the corner of his eye. 2D didn't look back at him at all. He just spaced out through the window instead like he always did. Murdoc sighed and made sure to drive faster so they finally could get home. After a while they were back at Kong. Murdoc parked the car in the car park and made sure that everyone stepped out. They all stepped out and were just about to get into the building as Murdoc growled at the singer again.

Murdoc: Aren't you going to get your stuff too!?

2D: *turns to the bassist* Why would I do that? After this talk I will go back!

Noodle: What?

2D: *sighs* Noodle I…

Russel: Before we start another damn fight! Let's get into the kitchen and talk! NOW!

The four of them walked upstairs all the way to the kitchen. 2D took his time and looked around the place. Not much had changed in the building but yet things weren't the same as before. He had missed Kong studios and he was very glad to be back, at least for the moment that is. None of them said a thing as they finally reached the kitchen and stepped inside. Murdoc and 2D went a bit surprised as Russel locked the door after them. Russel glared back at them.

Russel: What? I don't want any of you to leave the place before we're finished!

Murdoc & 2D: *sighs*

They all sat down by the table slowly and looked at each other. 2D started to play with his fingers just like he used to do when he got nervous. Murdoc crossed his arms and groaned. Noodle swung her legs back and forth and blinked slowly. Russel laid his elbows on the table edge and glared at the others.

Russel: Start! All from the beginning!

2D was just about to start but saw Murdoc's evil expression. His face could be read like "I will so kill you if you tell them". 2D frowned and ignored the bassist. He turned to Russel and Noodle who waited like crazy for them to begin. 2D sighed and began.

2D: I-It all started at the tour…

Russel: Oh yeah?

2D: It happened just after we got drunk.

Noodle: When was that?

Russel: After we played that game of yours. You fell asleep and we had a few beers.

Noodle: Ok…

2D: Anyway. You passed out Russ and Muds and I kept drinking… Then we eh… erhmm… We…

Russel: What?

2D bit his lower lip and turned to the bassist. He wished that Murdoc could help him a little on this. Murdoc stared at them all in nervous too. He knew that they couldn't hide it forever. 2D kept on trying to tell the others but it didn't work out well. He just stumbled and played with his fingers. Murdoc felt the irritation grow inside him so he slammed his hands into the table edge and yelled out as high as he could.

Murdoc: BLOODY HELL! WE WENT DRUNK AND HAD SEX DAMMIT!!

Murdoc growled and sat back in the chair and crossed his arms again. Russel, Noodle and 2D stared at him in shock and blinked slowly. Noodle and Russel then stared at each other like if they had seen a ghost. They then calmed down and looked at the bassist and singer again. 2D and Murdoc were blushing and tried to avoid looking each other in the eyes.
Russel couldn't believe his ears and Noodle just kept blinking slowly.

Russel: A-Are you guys serious!?

Murdoc: YES!

2D: I-I'ts true…

Noodle: So you two are in love?

Murdoc: LIKE HELL WE ARE! Or… erm… GAHH!

2D: We couldn't tell you two! It was so… so…

Russel: Weird?

2D: Yeah…

Murdoc: WE couldn't even understand it ourselves…

2D: It made us confused and frustrated and we just couldn't stand each other at all.

Russel: So that's why you two been acting so god damn strange all the time.

Murdoc: Pretty much yeah…

Russel: Was that why you left D?

2D: *nods* It was also because Murdoc said he didn't need me.

Murdoc: So what! You brought up my childhood!

2D: YEAH! BUT YOU DESERVED IT!

Murdoc: SHUT IT!

Russel: STOP DAMMIT!

Murdoc & 2D: …

Russel: I think that you two need to talk through this yourself! Come on Noods. Let's leave them alone for a while.

Noodle: Hai…

Noodle and Russel left the kitchen and left 2D and Murdoc alone. 2D and Murdoc glared at each other without a word. They didn't know where to start at all. Now Noodle and Russel knew about their secret but how would things end up? Murdoc groaned and rested himself against the chair. 2D sighed and tried to start up the conversation.

2D: Look Muds… It's fine that we put all this behind us… But maybe it's good that we do what Russel tells us. Let's just try to end up friends okay?

Murdoc: Hell no!

2D: Why!?

Murdoc: You do know that you ruined the band by leaving!

2D: You're the same!

Murdoc: WHAT?

2D: You only care about yourself!

Murdoc: What the hell do you mean by that!? The band is about us all! Even you!

2D: …

Murdoc: You're a big part of the band face ache!

2D: Yeah right… Only for the band huh…

Murdoc: And for Russel and Noodle!

2D: Sure… But it seems that I don't matter anything for you…

Murdoc: What the hell! Of course you-

2D: W-What?

Murdoc: Forget it…

2D: No! D-Do you really mean it?

Murdoc: Satan! Why are you so!? So… So bloody…

2D: Huh?

Murdoc: Look Face ache… I did miss you okay! And I'm glad that your back…

2D: I missed you too Muds… But…

Murdoc: Eh whatever… You can go back if you want to… The car is waiting for you in the car park with all your bags.

2D: I guess so… Umm Muds…

Murdoc: What?

2D: It will never work out right?

Murdoc: *shook his head* I don't know Face ache…

2D: Good luck in your life then…

Murdoc: sure…

2D rose up from the chair and sighed. He wasn't sure what to do anymore. Neither he nor Murdoc had actually made up anything. He was just about to get to the door as the bassist flew up from the chair and grabbed the singer. 2D went all shocked as the bassist pulled him into a rough hug. He heard Murdocs angry tone in his ear as the bassist pulled him closer.

Murdoc: You selfish bastard… Don't leave dammit! Stay here… Stay here for Noodle and
Russel. For the band and for… Me…

2D: Muds?

Murdoc: I need you dammit! Stay!

Suddenly Noodle and Russel walked into the kitchen to check if the two hadn't killed each other yet. They flinched as they saw the sight. Noodle smiled and clapped her hands together. Russel didn't know what to do at all. Murdoc looked up and saw the two other band members standing in front of them. He quickly let go of 2D and rubbed his hair.

Murdoc: So 2D… Do you need help to get to the airport in time?

Noodle: A-Are you leaving again 2D-kun?

2D looked at Murdoc and then at Noodle and Russel. He put his hand into his pockets and sighed again. He then felt something in his pocket. He took up his hand slowly and found Noodle's cherry hairclip. He clenched his hand and then smiled.

2D: No…

Murdoc: What?

Noodle: Y-You mean-

2D: I'll stay. I'm back in business Muds.

Russel: Welcome back Man!

Murdoc: You're serious?

2D: Yeah.

Noodle: But your job in France?

2D: Oh thanks for reminding me Noodle!

The others stared at 2D as he fished up his cell phone and typed in a number. He put the phone to his ear and waited as he heard the beeping signal. Soon a voice was heard and 2D started talking.

2D: Yeah Hi Amelie… No I quit… Yes it's sad but it's true… yep… find someone else… OH yeah, send my pay check to my home address… Yes was it 3 million dollars?.. good! Bye…

Murdoc, Noodle and Russel stared at 2D who used had ended his call. He smiled at them and put his phone back into his pocket.

Russel: You earned 3 million dollars!?

2D: Yeah.

Murdoc: Guys…

2D, Noodle & Russel: Yes?

Murdoc: LET'S CELEBRATE!

2D: Hehe… Why?

Murdoc: Because we have got back the greatest singer in the world and we have earned 3 million dollars!

Russel: Umm Muds… D earned 3 million dollars…

Murdoc: Whatever… LET'S PARTY!

The band had a nice welcome party for 2D that evening. They partied, played games and talked about what had happened when 2D left. 2D smiled when he heard how much they had missed him and that he now knew how much the band needed him. They had also helped 2D to get his stuff back to his room so he could move in again. It was good to be back he kept telling himself. During the time they spend together made them come into old memories. The band talked about how it was when they met each other for the first time. They all laughed so much when they came in on Noodle's part. They remembered that day as they had found her in that FedEx box.

2D: Aww you were so cute Noodle.

Russel: That was a memory for life.

Murdoc: Yeah I remembered that! That was a great memory! I remember it like yesterday!
Just as we had opened that box and saw you Noods I picked you up and looked at you. I just know that you were our new great guitarist! I even told the others that!

2D: Yeah right… You actually called her "monkey" the first time you saw her Muds.

Noodle: I remember that!

Murdoc: Oh shuut uuuup….

They laughed and kept celebrating. After a long time Noodle fell asleep and Russel carried her back to her room. He said good night to others before he went. Murdoc and 2D calmed down and walked to the balcony to smoke. Murdoc lighted his cigarette slowly and inhaled the strong smoke. He saw 2D trying to light his own but it didn't seem to work. Murdoc shook his head and chuckled. The singer looked real stupid right now.

Murdoc: You need help or something?

2D: No… ah… ok let me borrow your lighter.

Murdoc: Here then… But don't break it!

2D: Gee calm down… Glad to see you haven't changed.  

Murdoc: yeah right.

2D lighted his own cig with the bassist's lighter. After he was done he gave it back to Murdoc and rested himself against the balcony rail. Murdoc did the same and took another deep puff from the cig. They didn't said much for a while, instead they stared out in the nice evening. Murdoc turned to the singer and glared at him for a while. 2D noticed it and looked back at the bassist.

2D: What?

Murdoc: So… How was it in Paris all this bloody time?

2D: Horrible…

Murdoc: Heh… I could have guessed that…

2D: Model job is nothing for me… It's totally boring. And everyone's just stupid, mean and walks around with bloody gossip all the time…

Murdoc: Yeah I know. Have you ever watched Top model? There can you talk about a real shit life.

2D: *flinches at the bassist* You watch Top Model!?

Murdoc: *jerks back* HELL NO! I just zapped around on the TV and suddenly that shit program came up… I just watched it because the girls were modeling for underwear and swimsuits…

2D: Heh… Okay…

Murdoc: Don't even think that I watch that crap!

2D: Okay okay I trust you.

2D had just finished his cig and dropped it over the balcony rail. He had been sure that it wasn't glowing or anything. 2D gave the bassist a smile before he walked to the door.

2D: I guess that everything will turn back to normal then.

Murdoc: Yeah…

2D: See you tomorrow for practicing?

Murdoc: Hehe… 2D… Real bands don't practice!

2D: Oh yeah of course. Sorry.

The singer stayed in the balcony's doorway for a while without moving. He kept looking at the bassist with calm eyes. Murdoc glared back at 2D and raised an eyebrow. 2D flinched a little and looked away.

Murdoc: What do you want!? A good night kiss?

2D: Umm… well…

2D nodded slowly. Murdoc sighed and took out his cigarette. He really thought of the singer as a child right now. Murdoc walked up to 2D and quickly pressed his lips against the singer's. 2D went a little surprised. The kiss was one short and light one. Not a romantic one or any of that… Just a light little peck on the lips. Murdoc went back and glared at 2D with a sarcastic expression. 2D was still blushing and didn't know what to do. Murdoc chuckled and shook his head.

Murdoc: You're unbelievable…

2D: What?

Murdoc: You're asking for it you know.

2D: A-Asking for what!?

Murdoc: Don't act more stupid than you already is…

2D: …I

Murdoc: Come here!

TBC!
