A/N: wooo first Welcome to Night Vale fic! I don't know if I'm going to continue but please review and tell me your thoughts :)
enjoy.
"And now a word from our sponsors..."
The door to Cecil's office creaked open and a curly haired man poked his head in.
"Ah, Cecil?" a low voice asked tentatively.
Cecil spun around in his chair as a grin grew on his pale face.
"Carlos!" he proclaimed. "What can I do for you?"
Carlos the scientist looked around nervously.
"Should I point out that there is a cat floating in the bathroom?" he asked finally, his voice tinged with concern.
"Oh, yes," Cecil replied happily. "You could say I adopted him." Carlos nodded slowly.
"Well then," he muttered, running his hand through his perfect hair.
"Is that all you came here about?" Cecil pondered persistently while absent-mindedly messing with his microphone.
"Um, w-well," Carlos muttered. "I was wondering if you would like to have lunch with me." He paused and blushed. "For scientific matters, of course, to get to know Night Vale better."
Cecil smiled like a little boy.
"Neat!" he said without thinking. His smile faded. "I-I mean, I'd be pleased to."
Carlos nodded, his dark hair bouncing.
"W-well then I'll see you tomorrow?" Carlos checked.
"Of course," Cecil replied. Carlos smiled slightly, then backed out of the room.
Cecil waited till he was gone, then laughed aloud and turned his mic back on.
"Hello, listeners of Night Vale. I have excellent news. Carlos with his perfect hair just came in to ask me to go to lunch with him. Do you know what this means, listeners? It means that he has finally realized that we were meant for each other. Now nothing can ruin my day. Not even Steve Carlsberg. And now, the weather."
He turned on the music, and leaned back in his chair, taking a sip of his coffee. The only thing on his mind was Carlos, perfect Carlos, going-out-to-lunch-with Carlos, the-best-scientist-in-Night-Vale Carlos, and most importantly, his Carlos. The music faded out. It was Cecil's cue.
"Hello, again listeners. Another reminder that Carlos asked me to go to lunch with him. Alright back to the program. News from the city council says..."
He continued on with the regular news, sometimes trailing off in more thought about the scientist.
