A/N Quite literally a story I found in the back of my notebook I keep next to my bed and don't remember what made me write this… I wrote this while my electricity was out due to some idiot hitting an electrical pole less than a mile from my house. What an Ass!
Anyway I just think you should be able to see it.
Bad Start
Ch.1 Unfortunate Soul
It was just another day for Mordecai and Rigby in the 1 year they've been at the park. Benson wouldn't stop screaming at them even when they did their job right, some random genie monster decided today was the day it destroyed the park because Rigby did something stupid and Muscle Man couldn't keep his shirt on for more than 5 seconds. It was only noon and they had just finished the stuff they need to and Mordecai was already banging his head against the hardest surface within 20 feet of him.
"Dude this job is going to be the death of us."
"You realize this now?" Rigby groaned as he fell on the ground.
"You want to go to the coffee shop. Maybe Margaret can cheer me up." Mordecai said after he stopped trying to get brain damage.
"Yeah anything is better than staying here and wait for Benson to pull out more work that will be destroyed in the next monster attack."
"Yeah that you'll probably cause."
"Like when!"
"Try 30 minutes ago!"
"How was I supposed to know that lamp had a genie in it?"
"It had a note saying 'Do not touch' right on it!"
"Whatever let's go get coffee." Rigby walked away in defeat followed by Mordecai. When they arrived at coffee shop they saw Margaret inside crying with Eileen and her cousin John.
"Margaret what happened!" Margaret was looked up to see Mordecai.
"Margaret's dad died yesterday." Eileen said still trying to comfort the grieving girl. Mordecai was floored. It was hurt his heart to see the girl he loved was balling her eyes out in front of him but the reason why just shocked him.
"How?"
John pulled the duo over away from Margaret and Eileen "He died in a convenience store when a driver who fell asleep at the wheel busted through the wall and sent him flying into a freezer breaking his neck. He died in on the way to the hospital. The driver however lived with nothing more than a broken arm! All of this happened yesterday." John said fighting back tears of rage for the man who killed his uncle.
"So you're here to tell Margaret in person?" asked Rigby. Mordecai was still trying to find his voice.
"Yeah I decided it was best if I gave her the news in person than over the phone. I also came to tell her when the funeral is when my mom calls after she arranged everything."
Mordecai was at a loss for words as he looked over at Margaret. Her crying was almost unbearable for him to listen to. He sat next to her and put his wing on her back trying to calm her. She looked up at him which made her happy. It made her feel safe and secure as she literally plowed her head into Mordecai's chest which took him by surprise. His heart seemed to kick into overdrive as he soon shook off his shock and turned it into a hug as he moved his hands up and down her back and making shushing noise to calm her.
He looked up to see that everyone was both sad and what had happened but glad that Mordecai was there to help Margaret in her time of need. Rigby on the other hand was pouting in the corner watching as he was losing his best friend.
As Margaret after what seemed like an eternity finally reduced her crying into sniffles, with her face still buried into Mordecai.
"Eileen, see if you can get Margaret the day off." Eileen listened to John as she went to the manager. Suddenly *Ring Ring* John's phone went off. "It Mom I'll put it on speaker." There was no one in the coffee shop at the time to overhear anything that was going on.
"Hey Mom"
"John is Margaret there?"
"You're on speaker she can hear you."
"Good I've finished arranging the funeral it is next Thursday. I will need your help to set up before then."
"Alright I'll be there tomorrow."
"Love you, bye."
"Bye." John hung up as Margaret stopped crying but refused to let her head leave Mordecai, not that you would ever hear him complain about that. Just then, Eileen came back in from the Manager's office.
"He gave Margaret 2 weeks off till she feels better to work."
"Th-thanks Ei-Eileen…" Margaret said finally being able to make a sound other than crying. She finally let go of the embrace she had with Mordecai. "I-I think I'll go home for now."
"Here let me walk you home."
"Thanks Mordecai… You're a true friend. Mordecai smiled when she said that as the two walk to Margaret's apartment.
Rigby was trying his best to hide his frustration but let it go for now as he went back to the park. John went back to prepare the funeral and Eileen went back to work for now.
At Margaret's apartment she still had her tear-stained face and was holding Mordecai's hand the whole way there. Mordecai was still trying to get his heart to slow down as it was still fluttering.
"Here we are." Margaret suddenly hugged Mordecai to which he hugged back. "Thank you for being there for me Mordecai…"
When she finished she gave him a kiss on the cheek and went inside, leaving Mordecai stunned for a good 5 minutes before he came back to reality. The whole walk home he could only think about what Margaret did to him, still holding the cheek she kissed.
