You're My Medicine When You're Close To Me

"Where's 2d?"

"Asleep."

"Is he okay?"

"Him? Yea, just had a busy night."
Noodle furrowed her eyebrows in confusion while Russel waggled his in approvment. Murdoc grinned at Russel's enthusiasm and as Noodle's face lit up. "Ohhh." She suddenly started gushing and hugged on Murdoc. "Cute! But not really. But still! I ship!"

"Huh? Oh um ok?"

They could hear 2d's footsteps as he made his way down the stairs pressing thin fingers to his lower back and hobbled over like an old man.

"Aww, toochie. Mudz you were too rough with himm." She bounded over and rubbed his back for him, he gave her a shy smile and blushed at the realization that they knew what happened between the two.

He covered his face in his hand while the other supported him on the wall.
Murdoc walked over. "I'll take him love. Come're."

He picked the man up and crossed to the couch setting him down and fetching a pain relief and a juice box to his request as he mumbled into his neck complaining.

He returned giving them both to him which he took giving him a half weary half scolding look.

"Sorry, couldn't help it. I like ya too much."

"Ugh."

"Yer pretty too, if that counts."

"Ick."

"Yew better shut it young lady or I'll embarrass whoever you bring over to shag, after Russel beats the crap outta em." Noodle's face tinted pink as she looked over at Russel who was staring her down. She laughed nervously and ran off before Russel could put a word in.

"You made her a little hell spawn. Watch, she'll be screwing everybody."

"Noods? Nahh. She's got more priority and dignity than I do." Russel and 2d immediately nodded in agreement making Murdoc stomp his foot.
"You shouldn't be agreeing with me!" He pointed an accusing finger at 2d who just giggled like a fool.
"Well I'm gonna go give our sweet innocent child a talk," he eyed Murdoc. "Please don't screw him on the couch, I'd like one place to sit without thinking about what you've done on it."

Murdoc grinned and waved him off as he got on the couch laying his head on 2d's chest. 2d pet his hair and smiled.

"I love ya Dentz."

2d widened his eyes in surprise and stuttered to get it out.

"I-I love y-yew too Mudz."

Murdoc looked up at him, his face stoney. "I really do. I won't do anything to hurt you again." His features softened a bit. "Except maybe screw you until you can't stand for a week."

2d laughed and pulled him close.

"Say et again."

"I love you."

"I love you too."
Murdoc lent up to kiss him and rub his bald head making 2d smile like a little kid that just got a puppy.

2d snuggled him closer mummering sweet nothings into his ear until he started to get drowsy and poked his ribs.
"Let's go."
"Where?"
"Dunno just wanna go fer a ride."
Murdoc got off stretching almost dramatically then pulled 2d off the couch. They crept into thier rooms to get changed into proper clothes then searched for Murdoc's keys making him agitated when 2d held them up with a cheeky smile.
"Where were they?"
"On the dresser."
"For fuck sake I'm going to need glasses."
He grabbed 2d's arm and interlocked it with his own like a Victorian gentleman and guided the two down the stairs and to the car.

Murdoc drove them to a park and they strolled around looking at the ducks and feeding them. 2d ran away multiple times when a duck got too close or tried chasing him.

Murdoc laughed seeing the thin man tangled in a tree with an angry duck at the base of it squawking at him. Murdoc shooed it away and threw a piece of bread that it scooped up and wandered off.

"Come on down Dentz. Its gone."
"No." He pouted like a child.
"Dullard... don't make me come up there."

2d slowly unwound himself from the tree and slid down.

"Atta boy. Come're." He swept 2d up into a hug and put a platonic kiss to his head. "So cute."
"Shut up."
"I'm serious."

2d kissed him hard wanting him to be quiet but got a different reaction.

Murdoc sighed into the kiss and squeezed 2d closer trying to bite at his lips. "Want to go somewhere else?"
"Yew are such a perv. I guess."

Murdoc smirked and spun him around putting a hand to his lower back as they sauntered off to the car.

They climbed inside, 2d puzzling why he wasn't starting it up then realized this what he meant. Murdoc turned to him staring a little creepily but 2d leaned forward drawn to his gaze and kissed him tenderly.

Murdoc pulled him by the nape of his neck and set him in his lap grinding himself against 2d's butt.
2d gasped as Murdoc bit at his neck and tightened his grip around him. He saw people walk by and jumped out of Murdoc's hold.

"What's wrong?"
"Noffing, juss a lotta people and we're in public."
Murdoc smiled gently and held his hand as he turned the ignition over.

They made it back home after grabbing food and crept up to Murdoc's room giggling like teenagers.

Murdoc tossed his burger wrapper into the trash turning the light on and locking the door as 2d stretched on the bed popping the rest of his fries in his mouth.

Murdoc lay on his stomach getting a greasy kiss from the thin man.
"Luv yew."
"Love ya too. Ya tired?"
"Mmhm."

Murdoc closed his eyes resting his head on 2d's chest slowly being lulled to sleep by his breathing.
