Chapter 2

Later that evening, everyone was ready for their Friday night. Murdoc had his girl he was going to bring, 2D put on his best shirt and jeans. While Russell and Noodle didn't even change.

They all went out to the Geep, and drove off to the Pub.

Once there Murdoc, his girl and 2D went straight into the Bar area. While Russell, Noodle and Coco went into the Restaurant area, that was empty because everyone was in the Bar. They took a seat at the little booth in the corner.

"Wat drink d'ya want Noodle?"

"Ano….coke please Russel-san" she smiled up at him, Russel nodded and walked off into the bar. Coco watched Russel then looked at Noodle, who seemed to be a bit sad.

Coco lowered her ears and nudged Noodle's arm with her head slightly to get her attention. Noodle looked down at Coco who had now that same sad expression. Noodle smiled down at her small cat and petted her head.

A few moments later Russel had returned with a girl linked arms with him. He was chatting away with her while putting Noodle's and Coco's drink down on the table.

"So Russel, ya wanna see my friends? They would LOVE to meet you" she slurred at him, Russel smiled at this.

"Sure" he replied and walked off into the bar again, leaving Noodle and Coco alone.

"hmm" Noodle said to herself, then frowned putting the straw in her mouth and drinking away at her coke.

An hour had gone by, and Noodle was still on her own with Coco. 2D had come to see her once, but was drunk and saw a girl he liked in the bar area so went to see her.

Noodle rested her head on her folded arms that laid on the table, wishing that she could go home. This was the worst Friday night ever, although on a normal Friday night they had a drink at home, Noodle was never left out like this evening.

She knew that she would have to stay in this restaurant area, on account that she was too young to enter the bar area. So she could not ask to go home,

She then thought to herself, maybe if she stood near the entrance to the bar area, that maybe one of them would be able to see her. So she and Coco got up and walked over to the entrance.

Lots of people were in this area, all laughing and shouting etc. Noodle then saw that Murdoc was sat nearest to her, she sighed knowing that Murdoc would never say yes to leaving now.

Especially noticing that he was very drunk.

"Tha's righ' ladies, I am teh leader of Gorillaz heh the two lads will do anything I say" Murdoc smirked at the ladies who sat all around him,

"Oh wow that is amazing"

"Yeah, you are so lucky"

"Don't you have a little girl in the band too?"

Noodle listened more carefully, knowing that she had been mentioned in the conversation.

"Er…yeah I do…but er between you lovely ladies and I…I would replace 'er with any one of yous any day heh"

All the girls giggled at that statement, while Noodle's eyes widened. He really just said that about her.

Noodle was heartbroken, she couldn't believe what Murdoc had just said. Her eyes filled with tears immediately as she rushed away from the bar area crying.

She sat back at the table and cried with her face buried in her folded arms on the table.

Coco looked at her owner and lowered her ears, she turned her attention back at the bar area and frowned.

She scratched her head with her big paws then got an idea, she walked back over to the entrance, and snuck in. Obviously being a cat she would not be caught as easily.

She walked around a bit, looking for the 2D or Russel's faces, but couldn't see them. She then thought it would be better if Murdoc apologised to Noodle, but first she would have to get Murdoc to follow her.

She saw him and frowned, trying to think of something.

Something came to her, and Coco took in a deep breath. Then let out the loudest high pitched scream ever heard, which caught everyone's attention in the bar.

"Coco! Wot teh hell are yeh doin' in 'ere!?!?" Murdoc shouted walking over to her, she didn't move only walked backwards slowly. To make it look like he was backing her back out, when really she was leading him out.

Murdoc nudged Coco with his foot slightly to push her back in the restaurant area.

"You! Stay in 'ere with Noodle!" Murdoc snapped pointing up at Noodle, then looked up and he noticed her crying.

He frowned and walked over to Noodle, Coco giving a little cheer to herself, for her plan being a success.

"Wots up with yeh girlie?" Murdoc asked taking a seat opposite her, Noodle didn't even move, she just cried not wanting to look at the man.

"Oi! Noodle! I'm talkin' to yeh!" he snapped losing patience.

"You hate Noodle!" she raised her head and shouted at him, tears filling her eyes. Murdoc was shocked by this little outburst.

"Wot are yeh talkin' abou'? don't talk bollocks!"

"Noodle knows! Noodle knows you no like Noodle! That Murdoc-san wants Noodle out of band!" she cried slamming her head on the table.

Murdoc was shocked from what he was hearing, he rubbed the back of his head and sighed. He got up and sat next to Noodle, who refused to look up from her crying.

"Noodle…I don't 'ate yeh. Wot made you think tha' I don't know. But if yeh referring to wot I said in d'ere then, yeh got it all wrong. I'm drunk girlie, so at this point I will say anything"

Noodle looked up at him, rubbing her eyes and listened to what he had to say.

"But to tell yeh the truth….you is the best guitarist tha' we have ever 'ad. No one could replace yeh, and no one is got it?!" Murdoc asked, in a tone that sounds like he is telling her off, but really he is explaining it to her in the nicest way he can.

Noodle smiled up at Murdoc, and nodded wiping her tears away.

"Arigato Murdoc-san" she smiled giving him a huge hug around the waist. Murdoc frowned for a second then gave a small smile and patted her head.

Coco smiled at the scene, then looked in the bar area and saw 2D and Russel smiling at them also. Being drunk they still found this scene rather cute, and they both gave Coco a thumbs up.

Just a little one shot I made out of boredom. I hope you like it, but I understand if no one doesn't. I have to admit this isn't my best work. Please comment nicely.
