it's been 8 months since laura "went to war in afghanistan". people thought it was a joke because of the way she would never go to afghanistan. but, it was "true".
danny went to live with drew 5 months ago, but i've been waiting for this to happen. i walk up to the door of their apartment. i knock.
"hello t- oh... kurtis." danny says to me as he opens the door. "what do you want, to investigate me again?"i sigh. he's onto me about my hunch about his murders. where ever he goes, people go missing. almost everyday. and, laura was one of those victims.
"no. drew asked me to come over to help with something." i say.
(lies)
"apparently your toilet needs to get fixed."since being a private investigator doesn't pay very well, i'm a plumber when i need the money. which is a lot. but, it lets me to get into the places i need to when i suspect something. danny sighs but let's me in. i can tell his heart is beating too fast, from fear.
i didn't come up with the theory of danny being connected to people going missing, but lauren's friend, sorin. sorin told me that she noticed how people keep going missing. i thought about it, and i think she's right, he could very much be connected. maybe even the cause.
"hurry up, though," danny tells me, "drew hasn't been feeling well, with the baby. so keep quite, bitch.""wow. no need for that language, dan." i say.
he puffs out an aggravated breath but leads me to the bathroom. "don't be slow, kurtis. i have something to do. and no, it's it 'murdering someone' as you probably think. it's for drew's baby. so shut the fuck and hurry."
i obligate and i start to work on the already fine toilet. i spend an extra 5 minutes in there just so danny thinks i did something. but when i walk out, drew was there."oh... hey kurtis... um what are you doing here." my eyes widen in panic and i almost flinch, but i come up with yet another lie.
"don't you remember drew?" i ask, "you wanted me to fix the toilet. silly you, you must have forgot.""hehe....... i-i guess i did forget... these pain meds do have a side effect of making you forget some stuff. but thank you kurtis, how much money do you want for helpin with the bathroom?"
i need to know if danny is a murderer, that's what i need. "well yah know," i say, " i kinda need a place to stay for a while. since youtube got taken over by logan pail 3 weeks ago, i've had no money from my videos, cause logan deleted them. and since i only work as a plumber now, i have no place to stay."
"of course kurtis!! come on i think danny has a 'secret' room down this hall-"
" STOP!" i hear danny say as we make our way to the room, "FUCKING STOP! T-THATS MY RECORDING ROOM. YEAH, YEAH IT IS SO DON'T GO ANY FUCKING CLOSER TO IT."
drew stairs at him but listens to his lovers request."fine" drew turns to me, "you can sleep on the couch. but, sometimes we like to turn on a movie and watch some funny tv shows so, sorry if we wake you up at night. oh.... heehee.... and me and danny might... ya know..."
i have no idea what he means so i shrug."omg FINE i'll say it," he says though giggles, "we might... do it... teehee."
"the fu-" i try to say but then they punch me into the couch and turns on a movie and watches some funny tv shows while pitbull plays from the kitchen.
what the fuck did i get myself into....
