I spent about a week in the hotel thinking things over, but I didn't get anywhere. I couldn't stand seeing Ace's face. Every time I thought about him, it was just the image of him kissing Sonya. I knew as much as I didn't want to, I had to leave.
When I arrived at Kong Studios, I saw someone I didn't expect to see so soon. "Murdoc?!" I ran up and hugged him, relieved. "Hey love, I was wondering where you were." I looked at his lip, it was cut and badly bleeding. "What the hell happened to your lip?" I asked him. "Oh you know, 2d was just being a pain in the ass, that's all." he wiped the blood off with his sleeve. "Did he punch you?" He chuckled a little and looked off. "It was just a sucker punch, I'm fine." I sighed and looked at the nasty cut again, "Let me clean that up, at least." I led him inside to the kitchen and sat him down. "You and D' need to start getting along." he rolled his eyes and smiled, "C'mon love, cut me some slack, I gave him a rock that might've been a dried turd, but I tried, you gotta give me something!" I put a wet towel on his cut, "Why'd he punch you in the first place?" he loudly sighed, "Something about how Noodle could've got hurt blah blah blah... They forget she's a super-soldier she's done much more dangerous things!" I put some hydrogen peroxide on his cut while he was ranting, "Ow! What is that?" He whimpered, "For someone, who's got his nose broken eight times, no way you think this hurts." I giggled, thinking about it. "It's nice to see you again lovey," he smiled and placed his hand on mine, "It's nice to see you too." All of a sudden our faces were close and we could feel each other's breath on each other.
"Hey Mudz, up for some drinks-" We had quickly pulled away once Ace had come downstairs, "Y/n, hey..." He tried to smile, but couldn't. There was an awkward silence in the room, but Murdoc quickly broke it. "What were you saying about drinks?" He looked back up at Murdoc, "Right...Do you want to get drinks later tonight?" He then turned to me, "I would like it if you'd come too." I shot a glance at Murdoc and then looked back at Ace, "Sure, why not."
Ace's pov
I sat on my bed, looking out the window. I wondered if Y/n would ever forgive me if only I could explain to her. That wasn't the only thing haunting me, the thing she said,
"I was right to love Murdoc more than you."
I hoped she didn't mean that, but maybe I could've done more to prevent Sonya from kissing me. I had lost Y/n, I was afraid, for good. I heard the door open, "You need something?"I looked back, "Is that a way to talk to an old friend?" He smiled mischievously, "Murdoc?" I stood up and smiled, "I thought you were in jail?" He looked off, still smiling. "Well, the important thing is that I'm not anymore, How are you, Ace?" I sighed, thinking about all the stuff that had happened, "Things are complicated." He lit a cigarette, "2d told me about what happened with Y/n." He looked at me seriously, "Did you cheat on her? Did you hurt her?" I looked back at him and then looked away, "She came in and kissed me all of a sudden. Do you really think I would do anything to hurt Y/n? I love her." I put my hands on my head, "Then, you should tell her that." He said.
"Mudz, I'm leaving tomorrow." He looked at me confused, "You're leaving already? You owe Y/n an explanation." I sighed, "You're right, I'll do that while I'm heading back." All of a sudden, 2d barged into the room and punched Murdoc. "Noodle could've got hurt because of you! We were worried!" 2d said before he stormed out of the room. "Are you alright?" I looked at him, his lip was bleeding, "I've hurt worse." He smirked, "I'm going to get some air," He walked outside. I started to pack my things so I'd be ready to leave tomorrow. All I wanted to do was leave, ever since what happened, nothing has felt right.
After I was finished, I headed downstairs, "Hey Mudz, up for some drinks-" Then, I saw Y/n, she was helping Murdoc with the cut on his lip, they seemed...close. That voice in my head started acting up, I could feel myself becoming jealous. "Y/n, hey..." There was an awkward silence, what the hell do I even say to her. Suddenly Murdoc broke the silence, "What were you saying about drinks?" I looked back up at him, "Right...Do you want to get drinks later tonight?" I then turned to Y/n, "I would like it if you'd come too." I held my breath, hoping that she would say yes, "Sure, why not." and luckily, she did.
