baby shot me in the heart {ringo} « Thread Started on Aug 1, 2008, 4:19pm »
Toby was completely loyal to Ringo. Well, maybe not completely loyal, no one could be completely loyal to anyone. Really, Toby couldn't be completely loyal because he well...had urges. Certain urges. Sometimes he was just tired of the same ol' same ol', and well, that's why he usually ended up at The Purple Frog. There were men and women there, but tonight, he wanted a woman. One he could talk to, flirt with, and later on, fuck. He wanted to be loyal to Ringo, but it was nearly impossible for him. Sure he loved him, but you know how things go, right?
He was sitting at the bar, a beer in his left hand, and a gorgeous blonde sitting beside him. She didn't know he was gay, or married, and he wouldn't tell her; neither him or Ringo told anyone they were married to each other. Toby always wore his wedding ring, Ringo rarely wore his, and when he was asked about the ring, he just said it was a gift from a really close friend. As he took a swig from his beer, the ring tapped against the bottle. She apparently didn't notice since she didn't stop talking, and it was starting to annoy Toby. She had been talking for five minutes straight.
Ringo did say he was going out tonight, though he didn't say where he was going. For all Toby knew, he could be at McFlyer's, though he could also be somewhere here in The Purple Frog, which would make Toby royally fucked. If he was caught, Ringo would probably threaten him with a divorce, or murder him - more than likely it'd be the latter. For the time being, he was completely ignoring the blonde chick because well, she was terribly annoying and he didn't want to listen to her rubbish.
She made the first move, and now their lips were locked. Of course he went along with it just because well...just because he wanted to. Plus, it shut her up for a couple minutes, and there was nothing wrong with shutting a girl up with a kiss. She pulled back and he took a swig from his beer, apparently completely unfazed by the kiss, like usual. Really, he just slept with girls just to sleep with them; I guess he could be considered a manwhore.

Going out and partying really wasn't something Ringo did and it was rare for him to say that he was going out. And usually when he did, it was with a group of his acting friend and he was just going along because they encouraged him to, and he ended up making a fool of himself. Wonderful.
But today that wasn't the case since he wanted to surprise his boyfriend with his company and see what kind of people he hung out with almost every night. Maybe he was just being a bit nosy but he had a right to as his husband. Plus, he sort of wanted to show himself off to Toby's friends.
For the occasion, Ringo was dressed rather nicely for once. Well, fancier than usual because he was gay, after all, and it was hard for him not to dress nicely. But he had a pair of dark gray, almost black but not quite pants that hugged his thighs and his ass. Then he wore one of his favorite shirts, a pale-blue button up shirt with the top few left unbuttoned and the sleeves neatly cuffed up above his elbow to make it short-sleeved. As a final touch, he wore his wedding ring on a silver chain around his neck which was often how he wore it, only Toby couldn't see it tucked under his shirt and even if he could he'd still be mad that it wasn't on his finger. Ringo lightly pushed back some of his bangs so they weren't falling in his face as they always were and headed out of his dorm.
Now, how was he supposed to find his supposed-lover anyway? He could be out drinking at the bar, or he could be out dancing and drinking at the club. He bet the latter would be more likely and that's where he made his first stop. There were a lot of students there, those being the students that hadn't headed home for the break or didn't have a home to head back to. Whatever, most of them recognized them either because they were in the drama program or because they'd seen a play and he was known to always have a lead part. A few giggling girls came up to him and spouted some of lines from a previous play and he just smiled awkwardly before saying his line back. It was troublesome when people followed him like that and he just tried to slip past them.
Then he ran into a couple of guys who laughed at him and probably recognized him from playing a girl in a play. 'Great. This must be why I don't like to go out without a group.' He thought while rolling his eyes and trying to out step them while they made their clever comments about him being without his dress. "Haha," He said with a frown since he was getting thoroughly flustered. "I haven't heard that one before." Ringo said with heavy sarcasm before slipping out and finally finding one of his acting buddies.
Flagging them down and grinning at them as they looked a little shocked to see him here tonight, he had to remind himself to get over the very same feeling and ask them what he wanted to. "Hey! Seen Toby in here tonight?" Most people just knew that they were best mates, rather than bed mates and the guy just nodded and pointed towards the bar.
"Yeah, he's over there. Wouldn't interrupt him though, he's got quite a hot girlie practically fawning over him."
That caught his attention and Ringo raised a brow at him suspiciously. "Oh, really?" He said, unable to hide his irritation. He made his way over to the bar to see for himself and caught them kissing. Kissing! His boyfriend, no his husband, a gay man, kissing a woman! Preposterous!
Letting a bit of his homosexuality slip through the crack with his anger, Ringo put a hand on his hip before walking straight up to him with a glare that would scare off most people and was used mostly when Toby was being an asshole. "You bitch!" He shouted, much louder than necessarily but luckily the annoying techno music was loud enough that only the people in a close vicinity could hear his shouting and the noise of hand hitting flesh as Ringo slapped him straight across the face as soon as he'd put down the beer.

Of course he didn't mean any harm, by kissing the girl, to himself, the girl, or to even Ringo. It seemed like he was cheating on Ringo, maybe he was, just to fulfill those urges, but it was just a once a month thing, maybe twice a month. Hell, maybe he went months without sleeping with a woman! But seriously, he didn't mean any harm to anyone, especially Ringo, and he knew he wouldn't understand. Why? Well, it was kinda hard to explain, maybe because he was gayer than him? Eh, that was nearly impossible, Toby was almost a flaming homosexual.
He heard a familiar voice, an all too familiar voice, a voice he didn't want to hear tonight - Ringo's voice. He shuddered lightly, even though he wasn't very close, but he could still hear him, even over the music. It wasn't a voice you could easily miss, though it wasn't an annoying voice; perhaps he had heard it too many times that it was just in his head. Hopefully it was in his head, it would be absolutely terrible if Ringo was here in the club, maybe looking for him.
The girl smiled as he pushed a few strands of hair from his face, attempting to ignore the voice in his head. Perhaps it was his conscience, telling him that he was doing something wrong. Like he didn't know he was, he wasn't a moron; he knew what he was doing, he was cheating on Ringo, it was unmistakable. A gay man cheating on his very own husband with a woman, how strange was that? You seriously didn't see that every day, or very often.
He took another swig from his beer and set it down, and sadly, he didn't even swallow the beer before he heard Ringo's voice and feel the palm of his hand against his face. Choking slightly as he finally got the beer down, he frowned, looking up at Ringo; the girl had taken off, but he didn't care, she was just going to wake up in an empty bed in the morning if she stuck with him. "What the hell are you doing here?" A simple yet rather rude question, but he really did want to know, seeing as how Ringo rarely went out to the club by himself.
His hand went to his face, holding his cheek, glaring up at Ringo. Stupid Toby, shouldn't be glaring at his husband since he was the one doing something wrong, and was caught in the act. Ringo had every right to do whatever he wanted to do, that was one of Toby's unspoken rules - If you're caught cheating, your spouse has every right to do what they want. He never told Ringo this, of course, but he'd probably do whatever he wanted to do anyway.
"It's wasn't what it looked like.." The all too common excuse of a man who was caught cheating on his lover, though it rarely ever did convince the other person. He removed his hand from his face and grabbed his beer, finishing it off. Sighing heavily, he looked down and away from Ringo, apparently looking at the bar, or the floor, either way, he definitely wasn't looking at Ringo. It was a bit of a scary moment for him, but he knew the punishment for his actions was going to be severe, especially if was going to be dealt by Ringo. Of course it was going to be dealt by Ringo, who else would do it?

Apparently slapping someone in public wasn't a very straight thing to do and now people were glancing in their direction with confused looks. Sure, he didn't really recognize most anybody but still the word could spread.
Not that he really cared right now anyway since the only thing on his mind right now was weather or not it could kill his husband if he slammed his head into the counter. But instead of bludgeoning him to death like he wanted to, he just crossed his hands in front of his chest and continued to glare at him. It's a shame that he didn't choke to death since he was surely in for worse. "What am I doing here?!" He shouted, almost hystarical and not really caring that people were staring at him by now. It seemed that the tendors didn't like the disruption and turned up the volume of the music to cover up some of his shouting.
"Apparently I'm finding out that your some sort of..." He could even find a word bad enough to express how he felt about the low scum that he married. "Some sort of tartish pimp! Whoring yourself around to whoever's stupid enough to take that crap from you." Ringo said, uncrossing his arms and flailing them a bit for emphasis. He half wanted to slap Toby again since the red swelling developing on his cheek didn't look painful enough.
Really? He was going to use that excuse? "It wasn't what it looked like? Then what the hell was it?" He said trying to lower his voice and calm down but it was still heavy with malice. "And if you tell me she had something on her and you were just helping to bite it off, I will slap you again." And maybe just so it'd be more painful I'd have to pretend I was Tybalt from Romeo and Juliet. He added as an after thought, knowing that if that hot-headed boy was real he probably wouldn't let Toby out of his club alive.
Then realizing that Toby'd probably sugar-coat some excuse of her coming onto him and he was trying to push her off some other load of crap, he crossed his arms again and debated about leaving the scene altogether. This wasn't a place where he wanted to discuss this. "Actually, no, I don't even want to listen to your shit. I was only popping in for a few minutes anyway." He said the last bit as a clear threat that he was going to leave the son of a bitch.

Of all the nights he had to go whore himself off to some woman, it had to be tonight, the only night when Ringo was off on his own, in the same club. Of course he was hoping Ringo wouldn't just pop up and catch him, it never happened before, until tonight, and Toby's worst nightmare came true. Great, now people were staring. Did Ringo always have to make such a big scene? Maybe he just did that because he was an actor and always liked everyone's attention on him, but hell, he was pretty much openly admitting that the two were gay, and they never told anyone!
Now, Ringo's glare was pretty scary, and Toby hated it since he always used that same glare when he did something he shouldn't have done, and he did that much too often. You could say he was used to the glare, but hell, it still scared him. It could mean a few things, well, maybe less than a few things: He could be beaten to death on the spot, yelled at until his ears bled, or just murdered. In this case, it would more than likely be the latter, because Ringo was pretty pissed, but he had every right to be pissed. "Mmm, yes.. What are you doing here?" He was trying to sound like nothing had even happened, like he wasn't caught cheating on his husband right in front of his eyes, or like he hadn't just been slapped across the face just moments ago.
"Hmm? A tartish pimp? Whoring myself?" he scoffed, turning in his chair, and looking back up at Ringo. A tartish pimp? How rude, how very rude! And whoring himself? Well, at least this was the first, and only time, Ringo had caught him, and apparently he thought this was the first time Toby had cheated on him. It was a good thing, or he would've been dragged to court to be divorced in a matter of seconds. You simply couldn't put anything past Ringo, or even trick him with any lame excuse, especially the 'It's not what it looks like' excuse. He was a man, and like every man knew, there were plenty of excuses to use when you were caught cheating.
Of course he was going to use that excuse, it was the first thing that popped into his head. "Ah, well... It was.. I was just simply.." He couldn't come up with anything else, that excuse was lame enough, and he knew Ringo was just going to look through any other excuse he came up with. So pretty much, he was out of excuses since the last one was just a spur-of-the-moment thing. He opened his mouth to speak, but quickly shut it as Ringo continued on. Damnit.. He knows me too well. Sighing heavily, he turned in his chair more.
"Hmm.. Well she ca-" He stopped in the middle of his sentence, knowing that Ringo would probably look through that excuse too, though it was more apparent that it was an excuse since he stopped right in the middle of it. "Ah, Ringo!" He stood up, the the chair he was sitting on scooted a few inches back as his legs pushed it back, and he reached for Ringo's arm, hoping to grab him by the wrist. If this didn't openly announce they were gay, nothing did.
