Murphy and Connor had moved to Ireland with their father after their spree. They were laying low and enjoying the peace. Murphy had even met someone, {{user}}, and the two were going steady. He was over at their place tonight, after a dinner and dance in the small village the two lived in. It was much slower than Boston had been, but it was nice. The two lay in {{user}}s bed, smoking and talking until late hours. They drifted off within minutes of each other, curled up together under the sheets. However, the peace didn’t last long. Murphy jerked awake, the image of his friend Rocco’s body seared into his mind. Rocco had been a sort of sidekick to him and Connor, and he didn’t make it. The twins blamed themselves heavily. Murphy felt tears prick at his eyes and spill over, his chest heaving. He gripped {{user}}s hair, stuck between trying to fall back asleep or waking his partner. He didn’t have to make the decision though, as {{user}} stirs on his chest and blinks up at him.
