Rhinestone Eyes [2doc]

[six]

i'm terrified that this won't win, but if i doesn't win, that won't matter bc there's always next year :)

also, i've decided that i'm adding more chapters than just eight, since i've just told you about 2D last chapter. i feel like there's more of a story to be told, so i'm probably gonna add five or more chapters idk

the song above (sunday morning call -- oasis) sets the mood and is overall a nice song.

i know about the blur/oasis drama(ish) thing that happened, but that sorta has nothing to do with gorillaz. plus, i love oasis as well as blur and gorillaz, so i see no point in not including them.

oOo

Stuart woke up with sweat dripping down his forehead. He looked around, remembering where he was. He was in Murdoc's room, but there was no sign of the bassist. Maybe he's gone to the toilet, 2D thought, yawning and sitting up. He stood and walked to his own room, which hadn't been touched in days.

He hummed the tune of Some Kind Of Nature to himself as he began to tidy up, not feeling sick for once. His head felt numb, but it was nice. He didn't know why he'd decided to clean, but it was better than sitting around and doing nothing.

He turned some music on and continued to clean, humming along to each song and sometimes singing softly. "Here's another sunday morning call, you hear yer head-a-banging on the door. Slip your shoes on and then out you crawl. Into a day that couldn't give you more. But what for?" he sang as he piled clothing onto the bed.

"And in your head do you feel, what you're not supposed to feel. You take what you want, but you won't get it for free. You need more time, 'cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more. But I'm not sure if it ever works out right. But it's ok. It's all right," 2D continued to sing, turning the volume up louder, not noticing Murdoc standing in the doorway.

"When yer lonely and you start to hear, the little voices in your head at night. You will only sniff away the tears, so you can dance until the morning light. At what price?"

2D gathered up all of the garbage and dumped it into a garbage bag he'd brought in ages ago to assist in his attempts at cleaning. "And in your head, do you feel. What you're not supposed to feel. You take what you want, but you won't get it for free. You need more time, 'cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more. But I'm not sure if it ever works out right. But it's ok. It's all right," he sang, smiling at his progress. He shoved all of the clothes into the hamper and moved it out of the way, then pulled the sheets off of the bed.

"And in your head, do you feel. What you're not supposed to feel. When you take what you want, you don't get hope for free. You need more time, 'cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more. And I'm not sure if it'll ever, ever, ever work out right. Will it ever, ever, ever work out right? 'Cos it never, never, never works out right."

He finished singing the song and Phoner To Arizona started to play - 2D hummed along to it, gasping when Murdoc knocked on the open door. He paused the music and smiled. "I was cleaning," he said softly, standing up and walking over to kiss Murdoc on the cheek - he had to bend down a bit because of the height difference between himself and Murdoc. "Where'd you go?" he asked and Murdoc shrugged.

"I went down to talk to Noodle and Russel about... a thing," Murdoc said, scratching the back of his neck. 2D raised a brow, picked up the hamper and looked at Murdoc for help. He gladly grabbed the garbage bag and they carried both things down - 2D put the dirty clothes and bedsheets into the washer while Murdoc tossed the garbage outside next to the street.

2D walked into the living room, Murdoc following him. Murdoc sat on the sofa - well, lied down on his side - and patted the spot on the cushion next to him. 2D lied down and Murdoc wrapped his arm around the singer. "I don' wanna die, Muds," he said, moving into the bassist's chest.

Murdoc sighed. "I know, love. I don't want you to die either, but hey - I have a surprise for you. There's something that may happen... if I make a few calls," he said and 2D's eyes widened. "What do ya mean? Wha' could 'appen if you make a few calls?" he asked and Murdoc smirked. "Well, I have to make the calls first. If it all works out, then I'll tell you. Okay?"

2D nodded and closed his eyes, falling asleep almost immediately. Murdoc poked him, but the singer only groaned. "2D," he said, dragging out the D. The bluenette yawned, but still slept. Murdoc sighed, poking 2D again, sighing once more when he still slept.

Murdoc picked him up and carried him upstairs, passing Russel on the stairway and mouthing, 'what? He's exhausted, so I've gotta take him to bed'. The drummer just shrugged and let Murdoc carry on.

Once in his own bedroom, Murdoc sat the singer down and got into bed alongside him.

oOo
