Thank you for the reviews! Enjoy.

Murdoc got up from the bed, and started getting dressed again.

2D rolled over in his bed and pulled the covers over himself, biting his lip.

"We'll be practicing in a few minutes, so clean yourself up. Make sure you're ready when I come back," Murdoc said briskly.

He opened the door.

"Won't you stay?" 2D blurted out pitifully.

Murdoc gave him a harsh look, then shut the door behind him.

2D bit into his pillow.

It had been more than a week since the first time they had gotten intimate. Since then, they had gotten together almost every night. The second night, Murdoc had shocked 2D by immediately leaving afterward without a word.

2D was really hurt, and hadn't come out of his room all day the next day. Murdoc also hadn't been near him. But then he came back in the evening, and they did it again. It was the same passionate, love filled experience as first.

But then he had left again.

It had been like this every night, and it was crushing 2D. Then afterward during the next day Murdoc would be even more mean and nasty, and only spoke to 2D when it was necessary.

2D just didn't get it.

He groaned and got out of bed, wiping a few tears away. He got dressed, and sat on the edge of his bed, waiting for Murdoc to return.

This time, he told himself he wasn't going to let Murdoc use him again. Tomorrow, when Murdoc would come in the night again, 2D would say no. He'd harden his heart, and just reject Murdoc. That would make him regret being like this.

2D wondered if Murdoc had ever been rejected. He snickered bitterly. That must have been extremely awful for him.

The door slammed open. 2D looked up to see Murdoc glaring at him, beckoning him to follow.

2D wiped the last traces of tears away quickly, and followed Murdoc.

When they were in the studio, Murdoc curtly gave him the music sheets. 2D snatched them from him, trying to be harsh, instead resulting in ripping the sheets in half.

"Bloody idiot," Murdoc snapped.

2D took the sheets anyway, and held them together, his cheeks turning bright pink.

"Are we starting anytime soon?" 2D asked harshly.

Murdoc glared at him, and they started.

"Broken, our love is broken," 2D sang, while feeling needles in his heart.

Suddenly, Murdoc stopped playing. 2D turned around, confused. Murdoc was standing stiffly with his eyes squeezed shut, his hands clenched into fists, bass hanging from his shoulder.

"Erm.. Muds?" 2D asked curiously.

Murdoc opened his eyes. "You know what, I'm not in the mood to record a song today. We'll do it tomorrow. Fuck off," he snapped.

2D raised his eyebrows. "What the-"

"Out!" Murdoc snarled, and roughly pushed 2D out of the room, slamming the door shut behind him.

"What the fuck!" 2D exclaimed annoyed.

A kick against the door signaled that 2D should leave.

2D was hungry, so he decided to hit the kitchen. Entering the kitchen, he opened the fridge and saw to his relief that Cyborg Noodle had been shopping. He decided to fry some eggs.

While he put the eggs on the counter and looked for the frying pan, his eye fell on something.

He went closer, and saw to his surprise that it was Murdoc's phone. A brilliant idea occurred to him.

He went to the list of contacts, and scrolled down until he saw the name he wanted. He stopped himself before he pressed the green button, realizing he was in a really risky place.

He decided to go outside, abandoning the eggs. He scrambled over the heaps of plastic rubbish until he had found an appropriate hiding place behind a rock in between some toothbrushes and bottles.

2D pressed the green button eagerly, and held the phone against his ear. It rang.

"Hello?"

"Russ!" 2D said happily.

"Hey, 2D! What's up?"

"Is Noodle there?" he asked.

"Yeah, hang on a sec, I'll call her. Noods!" he heard Russel yell.

2D waited impatiently.

"Here she is, D," Russel said.

"2D?" he heard a soft voice say.

"Noodle!" he yelled happily.

Noodle laughed. "I'm so happy to speak to you too, 2D! How are you!" she asked.

2D decided to ignore that question. "Noodle, I've missed you so much! When are you coming here? We've been waiting for ever, and I really really really miss the two of you, I want to see you as soon as possible!"

"We're coming, we really are! I've missed you so much too, Stuart! But what did I hear from Russel? You two are recording an album together?"

2D cringed. "Yeah. Murdoc want to make an album as soon as possible to get us back on our feet, so he's written all the songs and stuff. That's basically what we've been doing all this time."

He heard Noodle sniff. "You don't really sound happy," she remarked.

2D half wanted to just open up and tell her everything, but decided against it on the last minute. "I'm fine, Noods. I'm just really tired. Been up all night, you kn-" he clamped a hand over his mouth.

"What? Why have you been up all night?" Noodle asked curiously.

"I.. uhh.. couldn't sleep," he said quickly.

Noodle was silent for a moment. 2D cringed, Noodle had always been a clever girl. He could almost hear her brain work.

"How are you and Murdoc getting on?" she then asked carefully.

"We're fine," 2D said nervously.

"Really?" she said sceptically.

"Yes really," he replied quickly.

"Because something tells me that-"

"Oh, uh, the battery's running low, I have to hang up, bye Noods! See you soon!" he said in a rush, and hung up the phone.

He cursed. He hadn't given any thought at all to the fact that he and Murdoc were having sex, and Noodle and Russel would be arriving here any day. What the fuck would he do then? But then he remembered that he wouldn't be having sex with Murdoc anymore, if everything went according to plan.

2D shivered, it was getting pretty late and the whole beach was completely dark now. He stumbled back to the building.

He got a huge fright when he saw two glowing eyes stare directly at him in the living room, but then he realized it was Cyborg Noodle.

"I am sorry," she said.

2D shook his head, clutching his chest. "I-it's okay, Cyborg. Your eyes just gave me a fright, is all."

Cyborg switched the lights on and her eyes stopped glowing. Suddenly, the living room door banged open.

Murdoc looked from one to the other.

"What the fuck are you two doing here?" he snapped.

"I was just going to recharge myself when 2D came in," Cyborg said.

Murdoc narrowed his eyes at 2D. "Where have you been?"

2D thought quickly. "I was in my room, I just came down here to.. bid goodnight to Cyborg Noodle."

Murdoc and Cyborg both raised their eyebrows.

"Well, bye," 2D said quickly, and tried to squeeze past Murdoc to get to the elevator.

"Hang on, faceache, I'm using the elevator too," Murdoc snapped, and stepped into the elevator with 2D.

2D faced away from Murdoc, feeling the heat rise in his cheeks from the awkwardness.

Suddenly, the elevator shuddered. 2D and Murdoc exchanged horrified glances.

The elevator shuddered again, and then just stopped. 2D and Murdoc were silent for a moment.

Then: "FUCK, NO!"

"Flippin' heck the elevator's stuck, we're never going to get out of here, we're going to die in this elevator and Noodle and Russel are going to come and-"

"FUCKING COCKSUCKING STUPID BLOODY MACHINE! SWEET FUCKING SATAN-"

"And we'll be dead and we'll never have seen Noodle or Russel again and Cyborg is going to be so lonely and we'll-"

Murdoc slapped 2D across the face.

2D stumbled back a bit, blinking. He frowned. "Hey!" he said indignantly.

"Shut the fucking fuck up, dullard! This is a pain in the ass as it is, I don't need you making it worse!" Murdoc snapped.

"Well what are we going to do?" 2D wailed.

"We'll just have to wait for it to work again. The last few times it stopped it started working again after a few hours," Murdoc groaned, sitting down and making himself comfortable.

"Sit down, faceache. You're going to be here for a while," Murdoc said rolling his eyes.

2D didn't sit. He stood stiffly, with his arms crossed, back against the wall, trying to get as far away from Murdoc as possible.

Murdoc glared at him, then lit a cigarette.

"What, aren't you comfortable around me anymore?" Murdoc said mockingly.

"I'm not uncomfortable. I'm disappointed," 2D said quietly.

Murdoc hadn't heard him. "Well, now that we're here and we're going to be stuck here for who knows how long, we might as well fuck, eh?" he said casually, eying his cigarette as if it were the most interesting thing in the world.

2D clenched his fists. This was the moment.

"No," he mumbled, not looking at Murdoc.

"What was that?" Murdoc asked.

2D looked up. "No," he said loudly.

Murdoc blinked at him. "What?"

"No, I'm not going to let you use me again so that later you can treat me like rubbish. I'm not going to let you make me think you love me, just so that you prove later that you don't," 2D yelled, tears growing in his eyes.

Murdoc stared at him with his mouth hanging open.
