Chapter Twenty-One: Forgive Me?

(2D's POV)

I wasn't sure whether or not to believe what they were telling me at first, but then I looked at (Y/N). She looked so sad and hopeful... And when I actually stopped to think, she was quite firmly insisting that she hadn't done anything. She'd only left because I shouted at her. Naturally, I slowly began to feel more and more like an asshole.

Looking at Murdoc, who appeared ready to guard his nose from punching (and the bruised left half of his face... (Y/N)...?), I said coldly, "leave." They both began to slowly walk away, but I grabbed (Y/N)'s arm and said "not you." She looked a little surprised, before glancing at Murdoc and following me into my room.

(Your POV)

I slowly sat down on his bed with him. Less than twenty-four hours ago, this would have been cheery and nice, but now we both feel a strong awkward tension. Stuart sighed before looking me directly in the eyes (well, I can't be 100% sure, but I'm guessing he was) and saying, "(Y/N)... Is all of what yew two said out there true?" I nodded. "Yes, all of its true." He now looked down, holding his head in his hands. "I'm so sorry fer yellin' at yew... If I'd known-" I cut him off by quickly kissing him. He stared at me in surprise after I pulled back, and I just smiled softly and said, "thanks for listening." He looked away again. "So... Can you forgive me...?" I hugged him and replied, "of course I can." We kissed again, this time for longer, happy that we were back to how things had been before.

Once we had to pull away due to a need of oxygen, he asked curiously, "did... Did yew hit Murdoc?" I nodded. "Yep. I know Russel already pummeled him, but I couldn't let him have all the fun." Stuart looked at me for a moment before sighing and saying, "well, he definitely deserves it." I nodded. "Still, he did apologise and help me explain, so..." "I'm still mad at 'im." I sighed and said, "I guess I can understand that."

After we sat in his room for a while in a comfortable silence, he walked out, and I watched quietly as he went to find Murdoc. Neither of them noticed I was watching as Stuart walked up to Murdoc, who was now sitting on the couch and watching TV. He looked at Stuart and asked, "whaddya want, Faceache?" Stuart seemed to be trying not to get scared and leave as he responded, "why did yew do it? And I fink yew know exactly what I'm talkin' about." I leaned a little closer from my spot behind the corner, curious as to what the answer would be. Murdoc glared up at Stuart and said, "same reason as the last two times." Stuart sighed and asked instead, "why'd yew explain what happened?" Murdoc hesitated this time. He eventually answered, "that's my own business, you stay out of it."

I decided to go ahead and slip away before they saw me. As I walked through the hallway, Noodle suddenly jumped out in front of me. "(Y/N)-chan! You're back!" She exclaimed hapily. I smiled at her. "Yeah, I am, Noodle."

(A/N: finally, the 'drama arc' seems to be mostly over! But don't get too comfortable... Muahahaha~)
