M&Ms Fanfic Pour My Heart Out
Chapter One
I walk slowly down William Street. The cold wind slaps me as I struggle to make it home. The sky is dreary and gray, and filled with rain clouds. I see two homeless people fighting over a cardboard box. How is a bird supposed to be happy in a world like this?
When I get home I pick up the phone and dial my mother. After three rings, she answers. "Hello?" She says. "Hi, Mom." "Oh, hi, honey!" She exclaims. "How was your day?" I sighed loudly. "It sucked." "Oh dear. Why?" "My boyfriend broke up with me." "Oh honey, you pick the wrong men." She said. "I do wish you would go out with that Mordecai fellow. He's a nice young fellow." I groaned. "Why do you always say that?" I asked. "You know we're just friends." Mother sighed. "Honey, you've known him since you were both in 1st grade, and he's crazy about you! Besides, he's a very polite young man, not like those jerks you usually go for." I bang my head against the table. "Please honey, would you go out on one date with him, for your poor old mother?" I sigh. "Okay, mom. One date." "Oh, thank you, dear! I know you'll love him! He's perfect for you!" "Goodbye mom."
I toss and turn as I try and fall asleep. All I can think about is, 'I have to go out on a date with Mordecai, the guy that's just friends with me.' Ugh. I can't do it! He doesn't like me! I'd be sooo embarrassed if I asked him out.
Stupid Mom.
The next day
I look around the coffee shop anxiously. I don't see Mordecai. Thank God. I can still put my plan into action. "Eileen!" I say. "Yeah, Margaret?" She asks. I look around to make sure the coast is clear. "I was wondering if, when Mordecai comes in.. Could you, uh.. Ask him out for me?" "You mean like, say 'Margaret was wondering if you wanted to go out with her?'" "Yeah." I say. "Just like that." "I knew it! I knew you liked him!" She exclaimed. "No, Eileen, shush! I don't like him! My mom is making me ask him out!" I say. She sighs. "You like him.."
At 9:30, Mordecai and Rigby walked in. They sat down at their usual table and Eileen quickly winked at me, and then ran over. Mordecai tapped his fingers on the table as Rigby ordered. Eileen wrote something down on her order sheet, and then stuck her pen behind her ear. I saw her turn towards Mordecai and say something. Mordecai looked at her. He said something. Oh crap, I think she's asking him out now… I duck my head behind the snack counter. A few seconds later, Eileen walked up. "Two coffees, a doughnut, and a croissant. Oh, and a sure!"
Crap. He said yes.
