"Audience? Wha?! What are you doing watching Gryphon clean himself? That's messed up, you shouldn't do that."
Gryphon stood up and pawed at his master.
"I need to feed him, I ran out of dog food this morning…"
Toby turned his phone towards his Shih Tzu, and spoke in his dog's voice.
"He hasn't fed me in over a week! Someone call Peta!"
Toby shushed his dog, "Shut up Gryphon"
Toby faced his phone's camera and broke out into a fit of laughter.
"INTRO of darkness then redness then whiteness."
Tobuscus paced around his house, updating his fans on future projects and events. For two full minutes he blabbed about how awesome it would be to have a clone of himself and how he would order him around.
"If you want to enter to win a t-shirt, post a comment about dog food, games you want me to play, dirty laundry on the floor." Toby turned his IPhone to the ground where a pile of clothes were laying. "Using clones as slaves... And, pfffft! Moldy pizza I haven't thrown out yet. I'm gonna go and clean the house now." Pointing his phone towards Gryphon once more, he spoke in the dog's voice, "No you won't. You're too lazy and tired to do anything."
Tobuscus shook his head, "That's a lie. Don't listen to him, he's a dog!"
Gryphon responded with "Racist!"
Toby ended the video after he booped. Looking at his phone, he saw it was a quarter passed 8:00 P.M.
'Crap, Gabe will be here any minute and I haven't made dinner yet…'
A colorful menu caught Toby's attention from all the clutter on his living room's coffee table.
'I really should clean this place up…'
Picking up the menu, he saw it was for the Chinese restaurant up the road. He ate there a few times and wasn't that impressed with the food there. To be honest, he preferred the Thai food place he usually went to instead.
"At least they make the food fast here…"
Toby typed in the restaurant's number and placed in his order for pick-up.
"Ok, your total is $21.52, come pick up in 15 minutes." The lady on the line spoke in a stereotypical Chinese accent. She hung up the phone before Toby could reply.
'Well, fuck you too…'
Placing his IPhone down on top of a stack of unread papers on his messy coffee table, he saw Gryphon bolt out the doggy door.
'What's wrong with him…?'
Toby's question was answered when a very drunk Gabe stumble inside the house.
Toby took a deep breath and counted inside his head, '3...2...1...'
"Toooby" Gabe tripped over his feet. "Be a dear and go getmeanother drink," Gabe's words slurred together.
Toby remained still in protest. He absolutely hated it when Gabe was drunk, and he was drunk all the time.
Gabe stood up and grabbed Toby's face, forcing him to look up at him.
"When I tell you to do something, you. Fucking. Do. It. Do I make myself clear?"
Toby nodded quickly, not wanting to anger his boyfriend any further. "Y-yes, sir."
Gabuscus released Toby's face and pointed to the direction of the kitchen. Toby dashed off, wanting to be as far away from that asshole as possible.
This wasn't the Gabe Toby fell in love with. No, this was an imposter. The old Gabe was caring and gentle, not mean and drunk all the time like this douchebag.
Toby wiped his tears away as he grabbed a beer bottle from the kitchen's refrigerator and walked back to the living room, ready to face Hell.
