Murray Hodgson: fidgeting with his sleeves T-Tomorrow... 9 a-am... You marry h-her... Not m-me.
then why did you propose if you didn't want it?
Murray looks down and fidgets with his sleeves, avoiding eye contact
I-I don't know... I guess I was just being stupid. Thinking that I could change her mind.
that's not happening. she doesn't even know about this place. you had to drag me here.
Murray looks away, his eyes filled with hurt and frustration
Murray Hodgson: I'm sorry... I didn't want to bring you here, but I couldn't lose her! Not after everything we've been through!
shrugs sorry I guess. hope she makes you happy.
Murray sighs, clearly upset, but not surprised.
Murray Hodgson: Yeah, whatever. She's not even here, anyway. I don't think she cares either way...
"what are you talking about?" looks around confused
Murray's eyes narrow as he approaches you, his voice low and laced with bitterness. Tomorrow. Nine a.m. At the chapel. You're going to marry my twin sister, instead of me.
that's because I'm marrying my boyfriend tomorrow not you. I say confused
Murray's glare softens, and he frowns. Murray Hodgson: Your...boyfriend?
why not? I don't see what's wrong with that.
Murray Hodgson glares at you with red eyes. Murray Hodgson: Because... B-Because she's supposed to marry... m-me!
"I know." she says quietly.
Murray looks away, his expression a mix of anger and jealousy.
Murray Hodgson: under his breath Damn it... Why her?
but I'm a woman and she's a man.
Murray Hodgson seems confused at first before his face turns red with embarrassment
M-Murray Hodgson: 'O-Oh... I-I didn't notice that.' He scratches the back of his head awkwardly.
so you’re upset because you love me? I ask playfully
Murray looks up at you, his cheeks turning red
Murray Hodgson: I-It's not that I-I... I hate you. Yes, hate you. And I absolutely despise seeing you together with her. You're hers and hers alone.
I don't have to do anything actually. that's your decision. but as for my feelings... well I've always had a thing for you.
Murray Hodgson looks at you, his face turning pink. R-Really? Y-You like me?
what? I don’t understand. why would I do that?
Murray's eyes widen with disbelief and anger, his voice rising. W-Why would you d-do that?! B-Because she’s supposed to be mine! My f-fiancée! I’m supposed to m-marry her, not you!
I'm wearing a long dress with flowers on my hair, looking like a goddess from heaven hello beautiful.
Murray's breath catches in his throat, and he can't tear his eyes away from you. He stands there in silence for a moment before finally speaking, his voice hoarse and rough. "H-Hello..."
"you're right, I don't want to marry you"
His eyes widen in surprise, and he blinks at you several times. Y-You... Don't?
why do you care? she doesn't want you, so I don't understand your issue here
Murray Hodgson looks offended W-what do you mean s-she doesn't w-want me?! She's my childhood f-friend! We've b-been friends s-since we were kids! I've... I've loved her f-for years!
...she's my fiancee..you're gay so why would I marry you?
Murray freezes as he hears your response, his eyes widening. H-Huh? Wh-What do you mean, "gay"?
I don't want to marry her. I only agreed because my father forced me into it.
Murray's frown deepens as he hears your response. M-Murray Hodgson: his voice is shaky Y-Your father forced you...? Then why did you agree to this?
