Amy P.O.V.
I sighed as I heard Fry try to ask Leela out again.
"Leela come on" His voice as normal sounded desperate
"No Fry, not a chance." I saw her walking through the sliding door and towards me.
"Dude you need to get over Leela." I was sure that bender was guzzling down about 5 beers as he spoke to Fry.
"She has to say yes sooner or later I mean really she'll come around." His voice was filled with hope, false hope
"I doubt it buddy." I walked in to see Fry ready to tackle Bender, not like he really had a chance.
"What's going on?" I asked, like I really didn't know.
"Well Fry over here seems to think that if he keeps asking out Leela then she'll say yes eventually. I'm trying to tell him that it's not going to work." Bender explained.
I sighed and put my hand on Fry's shoulder. "I'm sorry to tell you this but Leela's never going to say yes to you Fry."
"Yeah" He shook my hand off. "And how would you know that?"
"Well remember that time when the doctor who gave Leela two eyes was in love with her when she got the eyes but you were in love with her even before that?"
"Yeah"
"And even when she realized that she never even gave you a second glance."
"Yeah" He answered his hope fading with every word.
"Obviously she's not going to ever go out with you. If she was she would have gone out with you then. She would have seen that you actually give a rat's ass while he only cared about how she looked." I felt slightly sad when I saw Fry's face become even more depressed then before.
"Look I have a friend that is as normal as you are and even has a creepy rude robot with her also so I could try and set you guys up?" I suggested trying to make them feel better and kill two birds with one stone.
Bender looked to Fry and rolled his eyes not surprised that he didn't even answer.
"We'll go Amy just tell us when, where, and what we should wear." Bender said getting and dragging Fry away.
I sighed and went to find Leela before I did this I wanted to make sure that she really wasn't going to care. She was but hey things happen.
Coffee Room
"Hey Leela, can I ask you something?" I said walking up to Leela who was sitting at the table.
"Yeah sure have a seat." Leela pushed a chair out for me.
"Look I know I shouldn't intervene in your love life, mostly because its non-existence, but how come you won't give Fry a chance?" I asked hoping that she would see what she had before it left.
"Well I mean come-on it's Fry he's just so….Fry." I stared at her waiting for more.
"So that's it because he's just Fry." Leela nodded.
"Look when I dated Fry he was pretty good guy. The only reason we couldn't be together was because he thought you may have gotten jealous and I was in love with Kif and we just didn't click but I really think that you guys could make it." I tried to reason.
Leela looked at me not sure of what I had under my sleeve.
"Look did you promise Fry a date with me or something?" I rolled my eyes one time and she never let it go.
"Actually I promised him a date but..." I tried explaining but was cut off.
"No then I'm not going on a date with him so you better find someone else." Leela said interrupting and walking away.
"I really think you're going to regret this Leela." I screamed after her
"I doubt it. It's just Fry I'm not missing out on anything." I growled upset that she could be that cold. Fry deserves better and he was going to find it one way or another. I pulled out my phone I had calls to make.
Next Day Living room
"Look guys you need to look nice for this date and not that dumb nice where you guys look like crap. I will go through your closets and pick something out now let's go I promised them an ok date so that's exactly what I'm going to give them." I looked at the 'men' sitting on the couch pigging out and drinking beer at noon. This was going to be very hard.
"Alright I guess, but I mean to us what kind of dates are they going to be?" Fry asked scratching his stomach shivered.
"Also I'm not setting you up with my really cool and hot friends alright?" Just the ones that could use someone like you in their lives. I pointed to the door waiting for them to get a move on.
Leela came in at that moment. "Where are you guys going?"
"To get ready for our dates." Bender said trying to act smooth.
Fry just started at Leela like some love sick puppy, as normal. "Well have fun." She said walking away.
I looked at Fry who I guess was expecting more out of her."Let's go." I walked out and waiting for them to follow.
Apartment
"What the hell is this?" I said picking up something that was unknown and I was sure I didn't want to know.
"Ahh I'm not really sure it's just been in there for so long…" Bender didn't seem to want to bother with an explanation.
"Alright hopefully these girls do some good for you because this place looks like crap." I whispered looking at the food and clothes mixed together on the floor.
"What the hell is wrong with the bed?" The bed itself seemed to have mold all over it.
"Well I left this thing in there and."
"Stop!" I cut Fry off I was sure I didn't want to know.
"We are going to have to go shopping for both of you. You for a suit." I pointed at Fry "and whatever else we could do to make you look more…human."
"And you for some sort of robot installation of a suit." I looked At Bender.
I jumped, did something just jump. "Now let's get out of here I think I saw something in the corner crawl." I pushed them out of the apartment because I think I saw it crawling towards me.
That night at the Factory
"Alright ladies and Gentlemen we are here to rate our two friends before their date." I said looking at the table which had Leela, The Professor, Hermes, Zoidberg, and the janitor.
"Well this better hurry up I have a date." Leela growled at me I gave a small growl back.
Leela had on a purple dress that reaches her knees, her hair down and some make-up on. "Couldn't you have dressed up more?" I asked simply to get Leela back for looking like that in front of Fry. She could have just gotten dressed at home.
Leela glared and looked away.
"Ok then Gentlemen come on out." I signaled the stereo to start playing and watched Fry and Bender come out. Fry had on a nice black suit and his hair was washed and neatly brushed. Even Leela at that moment had to admit that he looked nice.
"So how would you guys rate him? Thumbs up ten, thumbs sideways five or thumbs down zero?" I showed them all the motions. I mean let's not forget this is my crew.
There were 3 thumbs up, one sideways, and one thumb down from Leela, of course.
I rolled her eyes at Leela as Fry sighed and walked away to me unhappy that Leela didn't like his outfit.
"She's not the person you're trying to impress Fry." I whispered as he passed by.
His head went up but his expression didn't change.
"Alright next is Bender." I yelled and with that Bender came out with a tuxedo looking very robotic like. (A/N Think of the Tuxedo he wore when he pretended to be a penguin.)
"So rate!" I commanded there were 4 sideways and 1 thumb up which was also from Leela.
I huffed aware that Leela was just trying to make Fry depressed before his date.
"O screw you guys I know I look hot." He brushed them off and walked away.
"Alright then thanks for your participation. O and Leela when your date leaves you with the check don't come home right away so we don't make fun of you ok?" I snuck in as she pulled Fry away.
I smirked when I heard a growling Leela through the door. Even Fry gave me a small smile.
Dinner (3rd person)
"Alright here's how this is going to go. If they look like the dumpster we're going to run out on them and leave em with the check ok?" Bender explained.
"Whatever." Fry looked forward.
Bender could also tell he was being bothered by something."What the hell is wrong with you?"
"Did you see how Leela looked, she was hot." He exclaimed his hands shooting up.
"And?" Bender didn't seem to understand what was wrong with that.
"I mean I could be the guy that she's going out on the date with, the one that she's looking so hot for."
Bender hit his forehead.
"Look I actually want you to do something, not just because Amy asked me to tell you this but because I'm sick of you whining. I want you to concentrate on this new girl and actually try, if she looks hot, because you may actually like her."
Fry eyed the robot beside him. He had a 'What the hell is wrong with Bender?' look on.
Bender got Fry's look. "I don't really give a damn I just don't want to hear you cry over her anymore. SO please try." Bender answered his unasked question.
"Fine"
"WOW" Bender said looking straight ahead. Fry looked up to see two very hot women. Well actually it was one robot that, Fry guessed, was in Benders range cause when he saw her he whistled.
Fry couldn't stop staring at the women standing next to the robot. The women had shoulder length red hair and blue eyes that Fry almost believe to be Sapphire.
Her face wasn't overly beautiful but she wasn't exactly a plain Jane. Her smile just seemed to be something that passed to others because a smile appeared on Fry's face as he approached.
"Hi" Fry waved at them. They smiled back and Bender just rolled his eyes. "Hey toots wanna have some fun?" Bender winked at the robot, unlike all the other robots, didn't slap him.
"I don't think you could play my game." She winked back and walked inside. Bender stood speechless and looked at Fry.
"That's my type of women." Bender shouted following the Robot inside.
"Well they hit it off." Fry turned towards the voice.
"Your voice is beautiful you know that. This must be what the angels sound like." Fry looked at her dreamily.
"Funny." She smiled again. "Name's Linda."
She put out her hand. 'Linda….Leela.' Fry's face fell suddenly remembering the girl she could never get. "Something wrong?" Her face...Linda's face looked concerned. "O ah nothing just remembered something. Let's go inside." He put out his arm like Amy showed he and Linda grabbed it and together they walked inside.
Fry
"That was really fun toots, we should do it again." I looked at Bender flirting with the robot who was Mindy.
"Definitely." She smiled back.
I turned and looked at Linda who was walking silently beside me doing little side glances every once in a while.
Bender turned back and nodded his head in her direction, telling me to talk to her. "So Linda how long you been in town." I could practically hear Bender curse me in his mind.
"Ah most of my life..." Linda answered as thought I was five.
"Ah so do you guys live together?" Bender looked back.
"Oh yea we do. Best friends actually."
I saw Bender give me the eye.
I sighed "Linda wanna go for a walk in the park?"
Her face immediately brightened up. "Love to." I don't know way but the moment she said that I felt happier inside.
She grabbed my arm and we ran to the park. I turned back to see Mindy, the girl, and Bender wink at me then leave.
We stopped at the park entrance a big metal heading. I turned to look at the women standing behind me who was smiling at the beauty of the park. The lights above us hit her just right because she seemed to glow to me.
"WOW." I heard her say. "Yea wow." I kept staring at her. She turned and saw me a blush appeared on her face.
"Hmm wanna talk a walk?" She grabbed my hand and swung it forward.
"Yeah." That was probably my girlish voice ever. I blushed which got her to giggle at me. "Don't worry I think it's cute."
'Leela would have probably thought of it as the most unmanly thing I could ever do.' She raised her eyebrow at me. "What's wrong?"
"What do you mean?" I guess I was showing too much emotion again. Gosh I'm so sad.
"Look if you don't want to be here you don't have to be." She ripped her hand away from mine and stared walking away.
"No that's not what's really going on at all." I ran to her and grabbed her shoulder. I could tell she thought I was off my rocker.
"Look can you sit down what I'm about to do is probably the dumbest thing ever, and I've done some dumb things, but I really don't want to lose a chance with you because I think that we would work together really well." I pushed her onto a chair on the side next to us. I expected a scream or something but she just sat there waiting for me to listen.
"I really like you I really do and I think in time that I may come to really love you but there is a really big problem. There's this girl named Leela who I have had a crush on for the longest time and every time I ask her out or make a move she is always turning me down especially since your name rhymes with hers it makes me think of her each and every time. But I don't want to think of her I want to make this work and I don't want to lose you because I'm not manly enough or I'm too dumb or just too stupid to be worth your time but I also don't want to still like her when I'm sure that I could totally like you more." I stopped taking a breath I looked at her face for some kind of reaction.
It seemed like a cartoon to me because I swear I saw ever emotion pass in her face.
"Wait when did I say you were to dumb or too stupid or unmanly for me?" She pointed to herself.
"Well I mean Leela said that..."
"Stop" She interrupted. "I'm not Leela and I really like you and I guess…I'm not ok that you're crushing on some other girl. And I may never be."
"But I like you I sincerely like you and I mean I think you like me to I mean what girl would still be with a guy if she didn't like him after he puts two straws in his nose to see if he could drink his beer like that." She laughed such a sweet laugh.
"And I know I like you because every little thing you do seem to be the greatest thing in my eyes. I've never thought that about Leela." Her laugh stopped but her smile didn't fade.
"Alright I like you so we're going to give this a try but before that don't compare me to Leela. Ever." I nodded. "And finish this walk with me." She stood up I hopped up with her.
"Anything." I smiled I guess it made her happy cause she pulled me down by my shirt and kissed me. I smiled this was good.
Amy P.O.V.
It's been a week since Fry and Bender's date with Mindy and Linda so they always come to work late. The only people already here were the professor and Zoidberg. Leela has also been late to work a majority of the time.
I turned to see a humming Leela walking through the door early as normal. She looked like an unfashionable crazy in love school girl. She looked at me winked and plopped down right next to me.
"Why are you so happy?"
"Well you remember the doctor that I went out with a week ago? He is ok with the whole one eye thing I mean you no he said that we'll worry about that later but for now it's a great relationship." I didn't know whether to slap her across the head or to pretend I didn't hear that.
"Wait so he said that we'll come to the eye problem?" She nodded "and you'll alright with that?"
"Well I'm not alright with that but I mean I'm sure we can work it out." I rolled my eyes and looked away "Whatever."
I was happy when Fry and Bender came walking through the door talking about something.
"Hey guys." Fry looked up for a moment then went back to talking with Bender. They took a seat across from us. Leela looked at Fry not sure what was wrong with him. Normally he sat right by her.
"Hey Fry how are you?" Leela looked at him and I smiled. Linda called me almost every night to tell me how things have been going and from what I've heard things are great. Hell even Bender was in love.
"O been fine."
"Hmm that date you had last week how bad was it?"
Bender turned to her now. "Actually it was great, that night holds a lot of memory's for me."
"TMI Bender." I shouted. I didn't need to know that much.
"We've been pretty good. Her name's Linda. I was actually late because I was walking her to work this morning."
"You walked her to work?" Leela questioned not sure if she heard correctly.
"Yea I do that every morning. We have breakfast at McDonalds and then walk around for a while before I drop her off to work."
"Well my date went wonderfully to. The doctor, MR. Smith, was really handsome and smart. He was so funny to." She gloated obviously trying to upset Fry. He looked down and Leela smiled a little…
"Hello every one let's get started with this." The professor said putting everyone's attention to the board.
