Murrcano~

The beginning

"Sal where are you!" Murr said on the phone. "I'm almost there, just some traffic." "Okay, well hurry up!" He said ending the call before returning to Joe and Q, it's the third episode of Impractical Jokers. It's going great! Everyone has shared their love for the show and are waiting for more episodes. "Hey douche" Joe said before Murr slapped his arm and sat down, he was in a bad mood and he didn't know why. He felt .. close to Sal. He takes a deep breath before he hears the door swing open and a bunch of "Good morning" messages coming from Sal to the staff. Joe looks over and sees the box of donuts Sal brought for everyone, rushing over to him, and taking 3. "Hey only one!!" Sal says slapping Joe's hand. 

Murr gets up and makes his way over to Sal, grabbing a donut. "Thanks for the donuts" He said with a cute smile. "Its my pleasure" Sal replied as more staff grabbed donuts. They all sat back down at a small round table, eating their donuts. Brian begins to speak "So. I was thinking, dinner tonight at my place? We can watch a show" Sal starts to speak up before getting cut off. "And no. Not Golden Girls." Brian said. "Sounds good to me." Murr says and the other guys nod in agreement. "Are you cooking though because I am not eating the pasta you make everytime!" Sal says as the guys laugh. "No no, ill order takeout!" He says.

I'm getting ready to see the guys tonight. I got in a casual outfit and got on my phone during the free time. I've been feeling a bit lonely so I decided to download this app, Bumble. I've tried Tinder, but it's just a bunch of catfishes. On Tinder, I met a girl named Sophie, and turns out it was a 12 year old boy! I signed in and added my information and what I'm looking for, I was halfway through when I realized I forgot to add what gender I'm looking for but, whatever.  I looked over it one last time before starting to swipe. Olivia, 23. Not my type. Mia, 26. Not my type either? They are pretty but.. Whatever. Isabella, 35. Too old. 

I swipe once last time when I see a familiar face. James. What is he doing on here? I click on his profile and make sure its not a fake. But it's definitely him because one of his pictures have never been released to the public. I look through what he's looking for. "Any gender"? Must've been a mistake. Suddenly I get a call from Joe.

"We're waiting on you."

"Okay, ill be there soon"

"Will you though, you're always late!"

"YES! I'm being serious Joe!"

"Alright..." 

Joe hangs up and I take a deep breath. I grab my keys and make my way to my car.

I'm in my car, listening to "I Bet on Losing Dogs" By Mitski. I have to listen to it alone or else the guys will judge me. Well, Brian and Joe will. Me and Sal love Mitski. I grab the drinks they told me to bring and got out of my car and enter the apartment complex Brian lives in. I don't need to knock so I just enter but see nobody, I assume I'm the first one to come and Brian's upstairs changing or something. I place the drinks on the counter and flop onto the couch. Brian and Joe pop up screaming.

 I almost pissed myself! "WHAT THE FUCK!" I screamed like a little girl, they play too much pranks on me. "Gotcha" Joe says laughing and slapping my arm. "Stop messing with me!" I say teasing him. The door opens, revealing Sal. We all greet him and sit on the couch, getting our takeout orders. Q and Sal go to get the food, while me and Joe stay back to pick a movie. "Hmmm....Star Wars?" I asked which was...quickly declined. "No no no we HAVE to watch Young Frankenstein. It's the best!" Joe replied. "Yeah, well this isn't all about you." I told him, there is three of us we can't just watch his favorite. "Fine. Uncut Gems?" He requested. "Sounds good to me."

The guys all sat down, preparing for the movie, with the warm food in their laps. Sal was a little close to Murr, he could feel his body heat. Murr was cuddling with his childhood blanket and they always made fun of him for it, he couldn't fall asleep without it. 

Time passed and everyone ended up falling asleep except Murr. He looked around at them, Sal's adorable sleeping face...Joe holding onto his food.. and Brian. just asleep.  He just sat there, watching the credits roll, listening to the music, in the overheated room. He decided to get up and use the restroom. That feeling washed over him, that same feeling he always felt. His hands didn't feel like his hands. Feels numb, nothing feels real. His eyes are foggy, everything goes fuzzy, he can feel his heart beating, he finally takes a step and heads to the bathroom. Murr looks in the mirror, he's in a never-ending room of emotion. The tears form in his red eyes, all the thoughts come pouring out. Is he not enough? Do they not like him? Why do they pick on him so much?

I heard a door close, so as a normal person would do, I woke up. I woke up and looked around to find James was missing. I just thought he was taking a piss or something so I shut my eyes. 

I woke up again, to still find him missing. So, I went upstairs and knocked on the door. He opened it and I found him, infront of the mirror, with red, and sore eyes. I didn't say anything. I didn't wanna say anything. So I just.. hugged him. I wanted to be there for him, no matter what it was.
