Chapter 7
Blink left the first thing the next morning. It was a Saturday after all which kind of made Mush wonder why they hadn't just started school the next Monday. But oh well, who said that the school board were supposed to be smart?
Mush walked up to Gryffin's room, wondering what it was that she had wanted to talk about the night before, although he had his guesses.
He knocked slowly on the door. He laughed a bit as he knocked. It must have just been one of those habits that he was the only one who had. Gryffin opened the door a crack before slamming it shut.
"What do you want Mush?" She asked, keeping the door shut.
"Yesterday you said you wanted to talk... So, I came to talk." Mush tried to explain, although he felt kinda silly talking to a shut door.
"Oh yeah, hold on one sec, I need to straighten up a bit first." She explained as Mush heard some wrestling around from the inside of her room. About five minutes later she opened her door. "Come in dearest brother."
Mush blinked, Gryffin's room was a complete mess. "I thought you said you need to straighten up first?"
Gryffin smiled, "I lied. I just had to make sure that my room was Itey proof before we had this talk."
Mush nodded in agreement, but he couldn't seem to get Blink out of his mind, "So, what did you want to talk about, sis?"
"Yesterday." She answered honestly. "I know that at school everyone refers to Blink as the 'straightest guy in the world'. It's just I don't seem to buy your story that you're just fooling around, Mush."
Mush looked down at the ground. "We are Gryffin. We're just friends... I mean between us..." Mush went into his usual rant about dating girls, and stuff like that hoping that she couldn't tell how forced it was.
"Mush, stop lying."
"What do you mean 'stop lying'. It's the truth, if you were to ask Blink he'd say the same thing." Mush bit his tongue.
"Mush, I've known you all of your life. AND you're entire life you've only dated one girl. And I hate to say it Mush, but Mommy and Son dates don't count as dates."
"But, Gryffin, I did go to Prom last year..." Mush could already tell that there was no way he was going to win this argument.
"But you took me, Mush. And it was only because my date backed out at the last minute. I'm really sorry to break it to you, but that didn't count as a date either."
"And, I'm kinda going to Homecoming..." Gryffin's eyes grew.
"Wait, your going to Homecoming? With who?" She asked eagerly.
"This girl who's an S.B.O. with me. Blink's going to ask this little strumpet named Briana, so I decided to ask someone to."
"Mush, how do you really feel about Blink? I mean I believe you that right now, you're just friends, but do you always want to be just fooling around?"
Mush kind of smiled, "Well, you see, Kid is kind of a Cubs fan."
Gryffin faked a gasp. "You let a Cubs fan into this house? Quick, we must slaughter a goat to protect our great Yankees from the curse."
Mush laughed at her very crappy impression of their dad. "But I guess that doesn't answer you're question does it?" Gryffin nodded. "Well, you see sis, I think I may be inlovewithhim."
Gryffin blinked. "You are in love with him?"
Mush blushed, "But you can't tell him. I mean he's straight...and I think this is the closest thing to having him be in love with me that I can ever hope for. And sure, he's still dating girls, but maybe someday he'd run out of girls to date. Then we can get married, and have a dog, and three kids...and..." Mush looked down at the ground. "And be slaughtered by Morris, only after he kills his own wife and kids."
Gryffin put an arm around Mush's shoulders, "I'm sorry, Miguel. I never stopped to think of Irene. I guess it's because we just don't get along that. But maybe Morris will get shot or some other miracle can happen."
Mush smiled, "You know, maybe it's not a bad thing to have siblings."
Gryffin pushed him slightly, "So, do you want to watch 'Singing in the Rain' with me now that you are some what out of the closet?"
Mush smiled, "Sure, sis."Blink was laying on his back staring at the ceiling. He knew that he was supposed to call Briana, but he couldn't forget what Mr. Bobertson had said about Mush.
"He's probably in love with that girl he asked to Homecoming, that 'Kellie' girl." Blink sighed, "After all she is hot."
"Wait, why am I worried about anything like that? I mean I'm straight..."
He looked over at the cardboard box by his mattress, on top of it was the picture of he and Mush during the summer, both in their swimming trunks, it was from the day they had started fooling around.
"Maybe I'm not straight after all... but Mush is... so." Blink picked up his phone and dialed Briana's number.
"Hello Mrs. Anderson, is Briana home?" Blink asked as a female voice answered on the other side.
"This is her." Briana squeaked into the other end. Blink shivered, why couldn't everyone have a voice like Mush?
"Hey Briana, this is Blink."
"Oh! Blinky-poo!" Blink felt like he was ready to puke, how could anyone like someone like that.
"I was wondering if you'd like to go to Homecoming with me?"
Blink quickly pulled the phone away from his ear as she screamed, he silently prayed she would say no. "I'd love to go Blinky, what color should I wear?"
Blink gulped then looked at the picture of Mush in his baby blue swim trunks, "Baby blue." He whispered, not thinking about the girl on the other side of the phone.
"Okay, Blinky. Who are we going on our day activity with?"
"Some friends of mine." Blink answered quickly.
"I hope it isn't that Jack and Spot. I mean gay guys are so uncool. And that Mush guy you're always around is so mean, he calls me bad names." She complained.
"Mush is in the group, Briana. He's my best friend." Blink forced a smile out of routine. 'Damn, I wish I could call him my boyfriend,' he thought before kicking a wall. 'Your straight remember.'
"Oh, I didn't mean to say Mush. Mush is the sweetest guy I've ever met. He's so kind to everyone." Blink sighed, it was true Mush was the sweetest guy ever.
"Listen, Briana, I have to go now. Bye." He hung up quickly before running over to his garbage can and puking.
"Why do I even pretend to be straight?" Blink asked himself before laughing. "Maybe I should stop talking out loud before I give myself away."
A/N: Aww... I'm so mean to poor Blinky and Mush.
Blink!Muse: Yes you are.
Mush!Muse: You mean Blink loves me, he really loves me? starts crying
Itey!Muse: I wasn't in that chapter? You didn't put me in a chapter. joins Mush in crying
mumbles "All my muses are crybabies" Well, I have to go and start working on another update for another story now. So, please review.
