Hi everyone! :) This is my first Regular Show fanfic :) I hope you enjoy it :)


Chapter 1- Wake Up call

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

It was another day, another hot day at Quintel City. It was those days when the sun's heat itself could blind you. It felt like a complete hell hole. Even the air conditioner in Eileen's apartment couldn't beat the blistering heat. She woke up sweaty and blinded not only be the absence of her glasses, but by the torturing sunlight reflecting at her window. What time was it? She thought. Never in her life did she wake up to this extraordinary heat. She put her glasses on that were just sitting by her bedside table as she checked the clock.

It was six AM.

The time surprised her. Something must be wrong with her clock. She has never woken up at six AM with this heat.

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. It took her a moment to realize her phone was ringing.

"Hello?" she said.

"Hello, Eileen? This is Bailey," a husky voice replied.

"Bailey? Oh my god, how are you? I haven't been up there in ages."

"Oh, not much, actually. I got accepted into the university you suggested to me."

"Wow. Really? That's great. Did you get a scholarship?"

"Well, it's just a partial one, but my mom and dad said they could live with what's left to cover."

"Hmm."

"So… uhh… the thing is I'm leaving after the weekend."

"What?" Disappointment struck her. If he was leaving after the weekend, which meant she would never see him until they would both spend Christmas uptown.

"Yeah, it's a bummer, I know. I wish I could stay longer, but the thing is if I can't be on that flight this Monday, I can't make it to the orientation. That's why this weekend, Riley's throwing me this going-away party, and you are officially invited."

A sigh of relief. It was good to know that she could still see him before he leaves.

"So are you coming?" he asked.

"Of course, I am," she said.

"Great to hear. I miss you, Eileen."

"I miss you too."

"Alright, I have to go. Riley wants to go hunting. Bye."

"Bye," she whispered to the dial tone.

Eileen put her phone back where she took it from, pulled out her coffee waitress uniform, and walked to her bathroom for a nice, relaxing shower. She remembered the first time she saw Bailey. He just moved to their town from Alaska in second grade. He had fair skin, dirty blonde hair, and strange purple-grey eyes. He was a very quiet fellow. He never bothered making any friends for the first few months. He'd do everything alone. He was like the freak in the class. He was handsome, no doubt, but he distanced himself from the others, just like what she was doing. Eileen was always bullied in elementary. She would be called "Mole Weirdo" only because she was the only beaver in the whole school that was just like any other human girl. Just like Bailey, she was considered a freak.

She would never forget that day.

It was a Thursday, and it was raining outside. She sat on a table near the wall, eating her peanut butter sandwich when suddenly three human girls appeared in front of her. One was blonde, one was black, and the other was red-haired.

"Hey Beaver," the blonde said. "Why aren't you eating worms? I thought Moles eat that."

The other two girls laughed at her un-clever joke. The redhead said, "Yeah, Mole. Go out and eat some wood, why don't cha?"

Poor little Eileen closed her eyes, tears dripping from this. I wish I was never born. I wish my parents never wanted me. She knew this was the day. This was day she was going to die of humiliation.

"Hey, knock it off," she heard a familiar boy's voice say.

"Stay out of this, Anders," the blackhead said.

"No. You stay out of the girl's sight, you bitches. The next time I see you bully her again, I will shave all your heads with this." He pulled out a huge razor.

"Shoot," the girls said. "Fine, Anders. We'll do it, only because you're cute and for the sake of our beauty!" They walked away.

Eileen then felt warm arms hold her arm. "Hey, girl, are you okay?"

"I'm fine," she replied, opening her eyes. What? Her savior was the loner Bailey Anders?

"You shouldn't submit yourself to their words. Don't worry. You seem like a nice kid. Being nice is way more worth it than being pretty."

"Gee, thanks."

"No problem."

The next thing Eileen remembered was that she was having lunch with Bailey Anders, and they've been hanging out ever since.

The duo has been through a lot together. They would hike mountains or go camping together. They would even go swimming every now and then. Whatever they did, they were inseparable.

But never in her right mind would she have these feelings for him, neither did he. They were childhood friends who spent almost every hour together. They never fell in love or even just a little crush. Sure, they went to Prom together, but that was only because they wanted to know what Prom was like. She never thought that she would even fall in love.

That was until she met Rigby.

When she first met Rigby, she could tell he was the bad boy, a troublemaker. Guys like Rigby were never her type. She thought that they would become enemies, for it was clear Rigby didn't like her the moment they both met. She told herself Rigby was never going to be her match.

Or so she thought.

The night they first met, she couldn't get his picture off her head. His haircut, his eyes, his smile. She just couldn't just forget about it. She then woke up at the middle of the night, seeing Rigby's reflection in the mirror instead of hers, realizing that she liked him.

It was like love at first sight.

She finally finished her relaxing shower. She quickly put her uniform on and dried her fur. She was ready.

The walk to the Coffee Shop was eventful. She met Mordecai and Rigby's boss, Benson, and his fiancée, Audrey. They've been engaged for a while now, and Eileen silently admits she's a bit jealous about the two.

When she arrived at the Coffee Shop, Margaret was already there, preparing some cinnamon rolls for Mordecai.

"Hey Margaret," Eileen greeted as she entered the shop.

"Oh, hey, Eileen. You seem pretty excited today. What's up?" the robin replied.

"Well, Bailey's going to that University I suggested to him."

The robin looked at her in shock and said, "Wow. That's on the other side of the country. He must've gotten a scholarship or something."

"Yeah, he did. But he's leaving this Monday."

"Really? That's a big bummer."

"Hmm."

Margaret came closer to Eileen, eyes full of concern, "So are you going to see him again?"

"Well, yeah. His twin brother Riley's having those big farewell parties for him this weekend. He asked me to bring a friend and-."

"Okay, Eileen," Margaret interrupted and said, "You know I like Bailey and all, but you also know I don't really like him. I mean, remember when you left us alone to get to know each other? Well, I kept asking him all these easy questions and all he did was stare at me as if I'm a retarded person. I'm sorry."

"No, it's okay. I was planning on asking Rigby this time."

The robin's eyes widened and said excitedly, "Really? That's great, Eileen!"

"It's just that-," Eileen said.

"It's just what?"

"I'm afraid he won't say yes."

Margaret took out the Cinnamon Rolls and placed them on a plate. "Don't worry, Eileen. Remember how he looked at you when you weren't wearing your glasses? You can just charm him by not wearing them."

"But you know I can't see very well without them."

"Oh, yeah." The robin put a wing on her beak, thinking. "Oh, I know! I have the perfect plan!"

Mordecai and Rigby entered the Coffee Shop. Mordecai restlessly watched Margaret move around the kitchen while Rigby kept moaning in a sleepy voice.

"Dude," Rigby moaned again. "I don't understand why Benson had to wake us up so early just because Audrey was around." He was slightly irritated because the gumball machine would always wake the house up whenever Audrey was around ever since they got engaged. He thought it was a very stupid thing to do and it would be better if they called off the wedding. Besides, he wasn't very comfortable wearing a tux.

"Hey guys," Margaret said with a huge smile on her face. "What do you want today?"

"Hey Margaret," Mordecai said, love-struck as usual. After the kiss he and Margaret shared at the airport a few weeks ago, he could never stop looking at her whenever he saw her. He even kept a small picture of her and him in their teenage years by his bed. Rigby thought it was just ridiculous and obsessive. It was just a kiss, he would say.

"I'll have some pancakes with chocolate syrup," Rigby said.

"I'll just have some eggs and bacon. Thanks, Margaret," Mordecai said. Rigby looked at him with disgust. This is not the bro I grew up with, he thought. This is some zombie brought back to life with love.

"Dude," Rigby said. Mordecai wasn't listening. He was too busy looking at the robin preparing their breakfast. That kiss was just incredible, he thought. He remembered the moment they shared at the airport. He remembered how she said he would trust her when she saw the end of the road construction. That night was something he would never forget.

Just then, he felt a slap in his cheek. "What the heck," he said.

"It's about time, Mordecai," Rigby said. "I've been calling your name six times already. Could you please snap out of Margaret Land and get back to reality, please?"

"Sorry. What is it?"

"I told you Fist Pump is having another concert next week. Are you coming? I bought us front-row tickets. I bought some for Margaret and Eileen too."

"Cool, man. Let me just ask Margaret. But wait, how did you get these tickets?"

"Don was wanted us to have this family-bonding through a Fist Pump concert. Can you believe him? Well it turns out our parents had Bingo on that night of the concert and they didn't want to miss it, so Don just gave them to me."

"Cool."

Rigby laid the four tickets on the table, and for the past five minutes he and Mordecai talked about how awesome the concert was going to be when they heard a voice that made Rigby's ears ring.

"Hey guys, your food is here," the voice said. Rigby looked up and his mouth dropped and never went back up. Eileen was there right in front of him, wearing blue contact lenses instead of glasses. Rigby always wondered how Eileen would look in his favorite eye color, Blue, and now he knows.

Eileen blushed at the way the raccoon stared at her. He looked at her as if he was a blind man seeing the sun for the first time. She never thought anyone would stare at her that way. It felt nice.

"Uhh, Rigby, here are your pancakes," she said, laying them on the table in front of him. She noticed Rigby's gaze shifting down to her torso. What a pervert, she sighed mentally. But he's still so cute. Her thoughts said to her, making her blush even more.

"Mordecai, here are your eggs and bacon. Margaret's finishing up some Cinnamon Rolls for you."

"Yeah, yeah!" he said. Eileen ignored him and turned to Rigby. "Hey Rigby."

Is she talking to me? Awesome, Rigby thought. "Oh, uhh, hey, Eileen."

"So Rigby, I have this friend who's throwing a party this weekend, and I was wondering if you wanted to come along." I hope I didn't mess up, Eileen thought. Rigby started smiling as hard as he can. As long as you don't wear those glasses anymore, I am so in! He thought. Mordecai began looking up in interest as he ate.

"That sounds cool," Rigby finally said. Just please don't wear those glasses and stick to those blue contacts. They make you look even hotter, he thought.

"Awesome. Thanks a lot, Rigby. This means a lot to me." Then she turned to return to the kitchen, blushing tomato red. Rigby once again examined her torso as she left. Awesome, he thought again.

"So…" Mordecai said with his mouth full. "A party with Eileen, huh? After seeing her in Blue eyes, I'd bet you're wishing she'll be wearing lingerie to that party," he joked.

"What? Hell, no. Why in Pops's name would I even think that?"

"Because you think Eileen is hot," Mordecai said as he sipped on his coffee. "Just admit it, dude. You like her with or without glasses."

"Stop talking!" Rigby yelled.

"Hey guys," Margaret said, bringing a tray with a plate smelling strongly of Cinnamon. "Here are your Cinnamon Rolls, Mordecai."

"Gee, thanks Margaret. That's really nice of you," the blue jay replied.

"No problem." She turned her attention to Rigby. "So, Rigby, Eileen told me you're going with her to Bailey's party."

The raccoon raised a brow in confusion. "Bailey?"

"Yeah. Bailey Anders? Didn't Eileen tell you?"

"Eileen didn't tell me what?" he asked in suspicion. Please tell me she doesn't have a boyfriend.

"It's her childhood friend Bailey Anders's farewell party."

"Oh." He didn't know what kind of party it was at first, but he then figured out it was going to be awesome.

"I just have to warn you," Margaret whispered, praying the beaver won't hear. "Eileen and Bailey are as close as conjoined twins. You have to prepare for a little jealousy." The robin giggled at the last word.

The raccoon went into a vision where in Eileen was going to have some long-distance relationship with this Bailey guy.

I guess this was my wake-up call, Rigby thought.
