#man i hope everyone just angles for auston next

[3416]

what gets me the most is like... if everyone's collective feeling was that mitch marner wouldn't stay with the leafs... like all these fans and media have been convinced he's leaving the whole time and this is how they've acted since the playoffs ended, it's just a microcosm of the whole issue and probably going to be one reason for the leafs continued lack of success.

Best Friend // Mitch Marner

Mitch

Liz and I walked out to see Jack and Aus completely dressed down which wasn’t supposed to happen. We all looked at each other in confusion not really knowing what was going on.

“Aus I told you we were going somewhere nice.” I said

“Well I forgot and who needs fancy dinners. We never even had a reservation anywhere and plus Jack hates dressing up!” He said looking at her smiling.

“Well Mitch and I will go change. We can head somewhere and just have fun even if we end up a some stupid bar.”

Once everyone changed and we got ready to leave I felt very upset by the whole situation. I really wanted to take her out to show her a good time but maybe that wasn’t the best idea. I felt like I already failed at being a good boyfriend and knew she would think this is how every night would go. The same cycle always repeats of us going for food and then getting drunk and crashing somewhere close. I knew Liz wouldn’t be one to judge but still the thought of her getting bored of me scared me.

“Mitch? You alright babe?” Liz asked showing concern into my feelings which felt nice.

“I feel like you’ll get bored. This is all we ever do is drink and go out for food. Also hockey games but I don’t know I just don’t want this to be boring.”

“As long as I’m with you it won’t be boring. I care about you so much that I couldn’t never get bored. I know Jack hates going out for fancy dinners but that doesn’t mean they always have to go. You’re allowed to live outside of their bubble.”

“I know I’m just so used to tagging along I feel bad.”

We walked into the closets McDonald’s that we could find and went over to order. There was a huge line and we decided to wait until later. Seeing as we wanted to have fun we headed off to a bar.

“I’ll have four shots of tequila!” I said to the bartender while letting Liz sit down next to jack since there were only two seats left.

We all talked and chatted about anything that came up while we were waiting for our shots. Many people came up and asked us for pictures and I knew that the night had just begun. Once we all downed our shots we decided to take some more and just relax for a bit.

“When can we get chicken nuggets?” Aus asked

“Soon Aus.” I said finishing my drink and looking back at Liz.

“Whatcha want?” She asked smiling at me.

“A kissssss” I said looking at her pouting

“Maybe.”

“Dang it” I said keeping my hand on the chair for balance.

Eventually Jack was very drunk and Aus wanted chicken so bad that we decided to get going. I grabbed Liz’s hand making sure she was alright to start walking. She held onto my arm obviously very drunk and tired from how late we decided to stay out. As we walked out we just saw a lot of bright lights and people yelling. This usually was typical if we were spotted since the people of Toronto loved us. We kept walking hoping that they’d leave us alone which they ended up doing anyways.

“McDonald’s now!” Aus said making sure Jack was doing alright holding onto her so she wouldn’t fall.

“Ugh fine.” I said continuing to walk with Liz clutching onto me.

“The only thing greater than my love for chicken nuggets is Jack” aus started giggling clearly still intoxicated.

Once Aus got his stupid chicken nuggets I decided it was time for an uber. Knowing that everyone was too drunk to even walk about 10 minutes back to our apartment.

“Mitch when’s the uber coming! I want to sleep!” Aus stated causing me to get mad at him for being annoying.

“Someone’s annoyed!” Liz said laughing with Jack joining in

“Yeah whatever he's being whiny and annoying and I don’t need to put up with this right now.” I said and went on my phone hoping everyone would just shut up.

Once we all got in after about 5 minutes of trying to figure out the lock we all crawled back to our rooms and shut the doors falling asleep.

Liz

I woke up to light rain on the window and looked around confused at where I was until I heard soft snores just above my head. I looked up to see mitch sound asleep with his arms wrapped around my waist. I looked at the clock on his side table to see it was nearly 12 pm and knew he would want to sleep a bit longer.

I walked out carefully to the kitchen and decided to make him some waffles but soon came to realize they had nothing to make waffles. I sighed grabbing my phone and went on postmates placing an order for chocolate chip waffles for everyone and decided to make the eggs, sausage, toast, and bacon.

The man dropped the waffles off and I took them and set everything else up leaving the left overs for Aus and jack. I walked back into the room and jumped on Mitch smiling.

“Wake up you loser!” I said giggling

“Noooo its my off day!”

“Mitch it's like the afternoon you need to get up sooner or later. Plus I made you food sorta.”

“Oooo food I’m ready!”

“You still annoyed about Aus from last night?” I asked chuckling thinking that he probably forgot.

“Yeah he was being a little bitch who whines and I really don’t need him doing that all the time. It’s fucking annoying.” he said shaking his head beginning to eat the food.

“Well I don’t think that’s very nice of you to call him annoying. He was drunk and so were you so get over it.” I stated suddenly not feeling hungry. I heard him whisper a few words under his breath and decided I wasn’t here for his shit today. I texted Jack telling her to be ready in five minutes and I’d explain it in the car.

“I’m going out with Jack and Aus.” I said quietly walking back to his room finding my keys and clothes getting ready.

I sat in my car for a few minutes knowing she had just woke up and didn’t feel like waiting in their room for them to be ready which usually didn’t take too long. I started my car and put on one of Jack’s favorite bands, The Story So Far, seeing as she had to deal with me I might as well play music she likes.

“What’s going on? Mitch seemed upset.” Aus said

“He’s being a little bitch again and I thought we were over this. I just want to get away and let him calm down while we catch up a bit.”

“Where are we going though?” Jack asked confused seeing as she was still half asleep.

“How about the CN tower?” Aus stated smiling like a goof

“I hardly know how to get there but we can stop at Tim Horton’s quick and then Aus can drive my car?”

“Sounds good!” he said smiling from the backseat

“Good cause I can hardly drive I’m too upset.” I said chuckling slightly and driving to the Tim’s down the street.

Once we got to the CN tower Aus wanted to take 5 million picture of everything he saw that including trash and birds he’s never seen before. I felt a lot better being around them and almost forgot about Mitch. We all had a great time and they never made me feel left out which was nice considering that I really didn’t want to deal with that at the moment. Eventually we all decided to ask someone to take our picture having the CN tower behind us as well as individual shots.

“OOOO LIZ! Can you pretty please with a cherry on top take a picture of Jack and I! I haven't posted on Instagram in a hot minute and I need to show off my baby!” he said smiling as I nodded taking his phone taking a lot of different ones from different angles and everything.

Once we finished taking pictures and Aus got his creap we got back to my car ready to drive back.

“Ooo should I post the one of all three of us saying something like who needs a boy when you’ve got two best friends?” I asked smiling

“Liz is very petty. I like that. Jack where have you been hiding my twin from me?” Auston stated pouting

“Honestly I have no clue Aus, But yes I think that will set him in his place.” Jack said chuckling and going on Instagram as well.

“Ok I posted it!” I said giggling

“I should post these ones of Aus and I saying something like He’s mine. Does that sound good? Maybe I should say Crackhead finally explores Toronto?” she said while looking at the pictures.

“Hmm what about crackhead explores Toronto ft my baby?” I said as she nodded and continued to go ahead and post it while as well posting auston’s figuring out what he should caption it before deciding on a simple “she’s my crackhead”.

We all walked into the apartment laughing and continuing our conversation about how Aus needed more storage on his phone from all the pictures he took today. We didn’t even notice Mitch standing in the kitchen.

“Who needs a girlfriend when you can dump her!” he said chuckling and interrupting our conversation. “Yeah I’m real glad you enjoy being around but it really pisses me off that you can be such a bitch and leave me alone all day while you hang out with MY friends WITHOUT me.”

I looked at him and then back to Jack pleading for her to help me out and she obviously understood being sick of Marner’s shit.

“Hey. Right now I’d really appreciate if you’d fuck off. I know that you don’t like when Aus gets whiny but honestly you are ten times worse. You have no reason to be mad right now seeing as this is the only girlfriend you’ll be getting if you keep this up. Liz doesn’t need to deal with your shit and seeing as us being your friends you certainly don’t treat us like that. So in this case Mitch fuck off and don’t disrespect Aus and I again. That also goes for Liz since she’s the only one who will ever stick around even though she deserves better. Maybe if you weren’t a little shit you could have come with us today but yet you continue to act like a baby.” She stated

“I don’t like the way you treat Jack and Liz. You have the whole package right in front of you and still you fuck around and mess shit up. It’s getting annoying but for once Jack and I like your girlfriend. I don’t need you to disrespect me either I thought you were my best friend yet this isn’t how best friends should act. Yes, I am whiny and annoying but everyone is from time to time. You really need to drop this attitude like why the hell do you have it anyways?” Aus said awaiting Mitch’s answer.

“Because you’re taking her away from me! She’s the only good thing I have!”

“Oh shut the fuck up! You’re an NHL player for god sake. Do you know how many people would kill to be where you are?” I said before grabbing my coat shaking my head. “When you want to act like the Mitch I fell in love with and not this asshole version maybe i’ll reconsider it.” I said coldly and leaving slamming the door running down to the car and locking the door making sure that no one was following me.

Auston

“Get out.” I announced loudly looking him dead in the eye.

“Aus what the hell?” Mitch said

“I don’t like the way you treat my friends and my girlfriend. So i’ll give you one day to pack your shit and leave.”

“But-” he started before Jack cut him off

“Fuck you. Honestly I don’t want you near us or Liz so get out before things get worse.”

I watched him start to cry, a thing you don’t really see from Mitch Marner. He walked to his room or our new office that would be in use within two days.

“I hope she’s alright..Should I call her or let her go?” Jack asked

“Honestly maybe in a little bit. She’s driving back to her apartment now so I think maybe we should stop by tomorrow? Bring her a surprise?” I said smirking

“What do you have in mind then?” she asked chuckling

“Oh you’ll see.”
