So since American Thanksgiving is around the corner, I decided to make a thanksgiving story! And yes, this is another MollyxGil story. I've wanted to do this idea since I've started fan fiction, but never had the time to write it!
In this story, the guppies are 21 and it's been a couple years since they graduated high school. (Just a little FYI) Without further ado, here is my story!
It was a dark and starry night in Bubble City. Molly swam into the nearby restaurant and sat at a table with two glasses of pop and a basket of breadsticks. The pink-haired guppy was wearing her simple blue satin dress. The young adult pulled a lock of pink hair behind her ear as she picked up the menu on the table.
"Hello m'lady!" Gil said smiling as he swam to the chair across from the table. He was wearing a white collar shirt that was a little big for him.
"Hi, Gilly!" Molly greeted as Gil sat down.
Soon the waitress came up to them and took their order. She took out a pen and notebook from her fanny pack. "Are you ready to order, you two?"
They both nodded. "I'll have the quarter chicken with salad." Molly said politely to the waitress.
"I'll take the special with soup." Gil said.
She nodded while scribbling notes in her notepad. The waitress walked away.
"How are you?" Gil asked as he ran his fingers through his quiff.
Molly then smiled. "Great thanks. Guess what? I finished getting my university credits!"
"That's great! Have you figured out what you're gonna study?" he asked as he took a sip of pop.
The mermaid thought for a second as she tapped her cheek with her finger. "I think I want to take my singing career more seriously. Being a Bubble Guppy really made me realize my passion. I'm trying to get discovered as a singer. If that doesn't work, I have university to fall back on!"
"That's a really good plan!"
"Have you started getting your credits yet?"
He sighed. "No…"
"Gilly, you have to start earning them or else you can't get into a good university!" Molly stated in a warning tone.
"I know, I know." He sighed. "I just don't know what to do,"
"Come on!" Molly started as she reached for Gil's hand. "You're a Bubble Guppy! You can sing, dance, act and play various instruments! Maybe you can teach little kids some of your techniques!"
"You're right!" Gil smiled as the waitress brought the food. "Thanks, Molly!"
"You're welcome!" she replied as she took a bite out of her breadstick.
. . .
A few hours later, the couple was wrapping up with their meal and was talking among themselves. Molly twirled a lock of hair with her finger and looked at her boyfriend. She bit her lower lip and blushed. "Hey, Gilly. I was thinking. Since we've been dating for a while, I think you should meet my relatives."
Gil grinned. "What are you talking about; I've already met them."
"I meant formally meet them," she explained. "I think it's come to that part in our relationship."
The blue-haired guppy looked around his surroundings. Are you hearing this? He thought to himself.
Molly really does trust me. He started to blush.
He smiled at his girlfriend. "I'd love to formally meet your relatives,"
"Really? Thanks, Gilly," she said happily. "You can come at seven on thanksgiving night." She leaned in closer. "And remember, this is a formal dinner. What you're wearing now should be fine."
He clicked his tongue. "Got it." Gil glanced out the window behind Molly. Cars were already filling the road. "We should get going before traffic eats us up."
"Good idea." Molly agreed. She dropped her napkin on the plates as Gil placed two twenty dollar bills on the table. They quickly swam out the door while putting on their jackets.
. . .
Later on that night, Gil parked in front of Molly's house that night. She turned to her boyfriend.
"You know, fifteen years ago, I wouldn't have trusted you to drive."
Gil chuckled. "Me either," He gave her a kiss on the lips and shook her off as she swam out the car.
