Chapter 1: Meeting a million dollar face
Hey guys... And girls. I'm new in the fanfiction world, meaning that this is my first story. Anyway, I wanna thank my friend, NicolaiFan4839 for helping me out. He's been very supporting and his stories are cool. This, as the title says, is my own version of Fifty Shades of Grey. The movie is boring and I just wanna stop watching it but I'm fricken' attached to it, so I'm editing all those boring stuff and making them cool as possible, at least that's what Thomas and I intend to do.
Ah, November! A month that comes before December, meaning that colds will be caught. Winter has always been a tough and stingy season for a Washington State University undergraduate called Margaret Smith. Everything that she doesn't experience just comes to her and it comes in a weird and quite edgy way. But what will happen when something she didn't expect comes to her and she's in a state to choose what's wrong and right? Well, sit down, grab some popcorns and read what will happen to a innocent girl in a Winter season.
"Margaret! Margaret!" shouted Eileen Roberts, who's Margaret roommate. Margaret furiously appears with a blanket and covered Eileen with it.
After covering her, Margaret groaned, "Happy now?"
Eileen then got angry, "I'm too hot, remove the blanket." Margaret removed the blanket just as Eileen told her and Eileen immediately got angry, "Margaret, I'm cold again. What kind of a babysitter are you?"
Margaret sighed as she covered Eileen with the blanket. She took a fan and put it beside her. She turned it on and Eileen got confused.
Margaret smiled, "If you're cold, switch off the fan. If you're hot, remove the blanket and turn on the fan. Now can you please tell me why am I here?"
Eileen started thinking about it and remembered it, "Oh yeah, I now remember. You see, I'm kinda interviewing a wealthy 27-year-old entrepreneur called Mordecai Quintel at his company headquarters in Seattle for the college newspaper. As you can see, I'm too sick to go there and I'm kinda involved in the college newspaper party so... Can you cover it for me?"
Margaret started laughing as she sat down, "Sorry, amigo, but me to Seattle is a no-no."
Eileen groaned, "Come on, Mags. We have been friends ever since day 1549 and we always had that you 'scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours' technique. Can I just have this?"
"Eileen, just postpone it. Its easy like that."
"What?! Margaret... Interviewing Mordecai Quintel is the biggest headline the college newspaper ever had. If we blew it off, then all eyes will be looking at me and you know how I feel when eyes are staring at me angrily."
Margaret got up and headed to the kitchen, "And I don't care. We're both 22-year-old, meaning that we both have our own, separated responsibilities."
Eileen got up with her phone and ran to the kitchen, "Ok, look. Think of this as your biggest breakthrough. I mean, you haven't dated a single guy since the 2 grade and this guy is definitely a hottie." said Eileen as she showed Margaret Mordecai's picture.
Margaret started blushing as she took a sip on her coffee, "Ah, is it me or is this place suddenly got hot?" Eileen smirked as she waited for the answer. After a while, Margaret sighed, "Fine, I'll do it."
Eileen hugged Margaret as she smiled, "Thanks Mags. Trust me, this guy is not bad. He can't even hurt a little fly."
Margaret chuckled, "Oh really, then how do you know that?"
Eileen just shrugged her shoulders, "Just guessing. Anyway, your passport is on the coffee table in the lounge." said Eileen as she walked away. Margaret sighed but she ignored that sigh and focused on Mordecai's picture. She giggled a little and took a sip on her coffee.

In Seattle
In an office big enough for a in-door garage, stands a lean, tall, and good-looking charmer who is busy looking at the beautiful view of Seattle on the window. Then a PA enters the office and clears her throat for the charming man to notice her. Mordecai looked behind and saw her PA with a document.
"Oh good, I guess that's my job for the week, eh?" said Mordecai with a charming voice as the PA almost fainted. The PA snapped out of her daydreaming with Mordecai as she gave him the document.
"Sir, your dad sent you this file for your assignment. He also said that you better not start any funny business with the girl in the file."
Mordecai looked at his PA and opened the file to see Eileen's picture, "Hmm, cute girl. Eileen Roberts... What's her job?"
"She's interviewing you for a college newspaper. Seriously, I find that really lame for an awesome boss like you. I mean, a college newspaper, that's so not cool."
Mordecai chuckled, "You know, Chanel, I don't pay you to insult my clients, but I pay you to compliment and help them. So, never judge a book by its cover."
Chanel was surprised as she decided to take Mordecai's side, "Oh, okay. Maybe she's a funny girl, hehe." said Chanel as Mordecai looked back at the view of Seattle. Mordecai smiled and said, "This will be a crazy season. "

Margaret arrived at a hardware, where she works, and greeted her friends. She sat at her desk and looked through some work. Then suddenly, she started thinking about Mordecai Quintel. She shook that feeling of him off as her phone rang. Margaret looked to see a message from Eileen.
"Change of plans; Mordecai Quintel is here in Washington, and he's kinda looking for me."
Margaret was surprised as she sent a message to Eileen, "What?! Wait, by looking for me, you mean me... As in, he's looking for me or you? You're confusing me."
Margaret waited for a while as a new message arrived at Margaret's phone. "Margaret, just talked with him and he's heading to the hardware store. I told him to meet me there. And by me, I mean you."
Margaret sighed as she sent another message to Eileen, "I'm wearing my every-day clothes. I can't see him with them."
Eileen quickly sent another message, "Margaret, calm down. Just stall him for a while and I'll be there. Ciao." said Eileen but when Margaret was about to send another message, her phone weirdly shut down and her phone takes a while to reboot. Margaret then got angry, confused and scared at the same time, up until a friend of hers appeared in front of her.
"Hey Margaret, there's a hot guy with a suit who's looking for Eileen. Now, tell me, is he Eileen's boyfriend?"
Margaret got surprised as she hyperventilated, "Oh no. No! No! No! Ah... Kelly, do you have a make up thingie?"
Kelly smiled as she gave Margaret her bag, "Of course I have a make up thingie."
Margaret then looked at her, "Okay, thanks a lot. Ah... Can you do me a solid and stall this guy for a while?"
Kelly chuckled, "Oh, I get it. You're trying to steal Eileen's boyfriend, eh?"
While Kelly laughed, Margaret groaned, "Just Go!" Margaret shouted as Kelly walked away.
Margaret quickly fixed herself up and after 6 minutes, she ran to Mordecai. When she saw him, she started sweating and got scared to meet him. She got rid of her fear and walked to Mordecai.
Margaret appeared in front of Kelly and Mordecai as she cleared her throat for attention, "Uhm, hi, you must be Mordecai Quintel. I'm..."
"Eileen Roberts? You sure don't look exactly like the person on the document."
"Ah, yeah, that's because I'm not Eileen Roberts. I'm her friend and her stand in, Margaret Smith, nice to meet you." Margaret said as she gave out her hand.
Mordecai took her hand and kissed it as a greeting, "Its a pleasure to meet you. Are you suppose to be the one who's interviewing me?"
"Its suppose to be Eileen Roberts, but she's ill so I'm only helping her."
Mordecai smiled as he chuckled, "Oh, well, you sure look prettier than Eileen."
Margaret immediately blushed but she shook that feeling off. "Ah, so, what brings you here?"
"Oh, you know, just passing by. And I was planning to meet Eileen."
"Oh, okay. Ah, now that you know what's going on, then how about I interview you tomorrow."
Mordecai smiled, "Well, that could be nice. 1pm, make sure you impress me." Mordecai said as Margaret blushed again. Mordecai saw this and chuckled, "You know, I can watch you smile all day, but I have a meeting in 5 so see you tomorrow." Mordecai said as he gave Margaret his number. He walked away while Margaret started daydreaming. Her daydreaming was ruined when her friend, Kelly, jumped in front of her.
"So is it official? You and him? Talk woman!"
Margaret sighed, "As you know, he's only a client. And I'm only keeping this professional. I'm interviewing him tomorrow and after that, I'll probably never see him again."
Kelly rolled her eyes up until she rolled them to a piece of paper on Margaret's hand. She quickly took it and Margaret hesitated, "Oh my gosh... Margaret, he gave you his number!"
Margaret took the paper back and hid it, "That's not his number, its his business's number... Now please, can I go now? Eileen's waiting for her hot soup and I have a lot on my plate." said Margaret as she quickly ran away.
"Oh, she's in love." said Kelly as she laughed.
There it is. My first fanfiction chapter done, and I feel good. Thanks to NicolaiFan4839 again for helping me though he's not a romantic type. Anyway, please read and review, and please, no suggestions and ideas because this is based on a movie that I watched two times.
