As I see him running down the halls of the Arc towards me I can't help but smile.
Opening my arms for a hug in surprised when instead he grabs my hand and pulls me down the hall.
"What's going on?" As he turns to a smaller hallway he wraps his hands around my waist.
"Kiss me."
As I hear the stomping boots approach I know he's gotten into trouble again.
"Hey kids!" One guard stops to yell, "Break it up!"
"Sorry sir." I step back from Murphy straightening my shirt. As soon as the guard is gone I confront him, "What the fuck did you do."
"It's a surprise."
He has it rough at his house, but I think even if he was the richest person in the Arc he would cause trouble. His family is an excuse, and I feel bad for him, but one day he's gonna have to stop.
"Why do you look so disapproving?"
"One day you'll get caught. I can't loose you."
"You won't, so. Wanna head back to my place?"
"My parents are out and about at the moment."
"Your's it is."
Once we've arrived and settled in on the couch I decide I can ask him again, "So, what did you do today?"
He shrugs, "The usual. You?"
Giving him a stern look I add, "You know what I meant."
"Don't worry about it, really. If they thought it was me I would be gone by now."
Sighing I lean into his arm, "You scare me John Murphy."
"But you love me all the same." He kisses the top of my head then strokes my hair lightly until I fall asleep.
"Violet! Get up." I hear a shhh and maneuver out of Murphy's arms not wanting to wake him.
"Mom, what's wrong?" She looks frantic.
"Get him out of here." Him being Murphy.
"Wait, why."
"The Ark is searching for him. There is a warrant for his arrest."
"We have to help him." I look around the room like a plan will pop up.
"We are harboring a fugitive!"
"What's up?" Murphy strolls over after waking up from his nap.
"We have to hide you."
"If you help him consider yourself out if this family. You can't come crawling back to us for help." There's a glisten of tear in her eye, but I know she won't let it out unless I leave.
"V, I don't know what's happening, but you need to listen to your mom."
Looking between them I turn back to her and shake my head, grabbing Murphy's hand I exit the flat.
This sucks a lot but recently I've been in love with him. Thanks for reading! I will be updating my Murphamy fanfic soon.
